EUGENE DARTS DEATH.
Eugene Dart, who died last night, was
a son of Hon, Jacob e. Dart.
In an article on his death to-day Col
Goodyear voiced the sentiments of the
entire community in these words: GU
gene Dart has fallen in his young man
hood a victim Of the scourge which af-
fiicts our city. Death has chosen a shin
ing mark. His life was as modest, earn
est, true and devoted as Christian teach
ing and noble qualities could make it.
This morning the tug boat bore him for
the last time from St. SimOn's to Bruins
wick, and through her deserted streets
he passed for the last time to his rest in
Oak Grove cemetery in the city where he
first saw the light. In all the sad
scenes we have and are to pass
through, none has or will come more
sadly pathetic than this. A useful
life, full of promise, is lost to u.s. The
sun seems to shine less brightly, but we
have the consolation of knowing that this
young life made the world better for it's
stay here, and its example of earnest and
faithful devotion to duty and in the prom
ise that such as he have life beyond, we
know not where, we know not how, but
beautiful and true reward for faithful
work performed
His sister. Miss Orilla, is now conva-
lescing from an attack of fever and the
blow fell with double force on her.
THE WEATHER VARIABLE.
The weather is variable The outlook
is very gloomy. Cases are piliDg up and
the fever Is rapidly on the Increase
From house TO house and street to street
it jumps, throwing entire families into
sick beds, gradually but surely. AS each
man is stricken another family is added
to the relief associations list of sufferers.
The scarcity of supplies has compelled
the association to feed only women and
children. Whenever the man in the
family is stricken, his family nee
essarily become to all purposes
widows and orphans until the man re-
covers. The association is compelled to
plies are not here to feed all. No one
need delude himself with this idea.
On 671 orders 1888 rations were issued at
the commissary yesterday. Fifty-one
sick persons were supplied with stimu-
lants and delicacies. Manager Smith was
obliged to purchase large amount of
provisions to fill the orders. The only
contributions received during the last
three days are two sacks of meal, two
gallons of whisky and one barrel of flour.
The stock is about exhausted. Flour is
the only article of which there is
a sufficient amount on hand to fill
the orders which came in to-day
and will come in Monday. Unless
some large contributions are re-
ceived shortly the people, both sick
and in health, will suffer. To-day's total
of rations issued exceeds that of yester-
day Manager Smiths present force is
inadequate and he will be compelled to
secure more help. The treasury having
always been light on account of small
contributions, and large, but just de-
mands, cannot furnish much more money
to buy provisions. The outside world has
been generous. Their acts are appreci-
ated. But more must come. Brunswick
hates to beg. She cannot help it. 1t is
humiliating TO be sending out appeals for
help But it must be done.
MUST BEG OR sTARvE.
One of two things is necessary.
Not beg and let the people starve, or beg
and rely upon the generous people to help

one doubts any statements made on this
line now or heretofore let him send some
immune person to investigate. An investi-
