ELEVEN FEVER DEATHS.

Situation at New Orleans Seems to BE
More Serious.
NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 27.-Numerically
this has been the worst day yet Of the
fever situation here. AS early rs Z p.
m. the score of the board Of health
showed a total Of So new cases and there
had been deaths to the number Of IL.
Heretofore the highest number of deaths
in a single day has been y. Unfortu-
nately there continues to be conceal
ment of cases here, fatalities occur be-
cause medical attention is not called in,
and the masses for the time being are
in a revolutionary mood because Of the
enforcement of the system Of house
quarantine, and are resorting to every
means in their power to put obstacles
in the way Of the constituted author
tiles. When the fever first broke out
efficient guards were placed about
buildings in the hope that the foci
might be restricted, but today there is
no quarter Of the city that has, not re-
ported cases, and the germs are going
to spread by reason Of the fact that
inmates of infected houses have been
successful by mean of rear exits in
eluding the vigilance Of the guards sta
toned in front of the premises by the
authorities.

Sioux Falls Press, %: During the
last week Harry Hunter told "a promin-
eat South Dakota republican that the
railroads had pooled their interests and
would put 100000 into the next elec-
ton to carry the state republican. AS
Harry Hunter stands next to Kittredge
andTomlinson as railroad lobbyists, there
can be no doubt that he is fully advised
as to such matters, all Of which shows
that the Press was speaking the truth
when it unearthed the plot of the rail

Government May Not Q to Postpone

WASHINGTON, Oct. 27.-The indica.
tions now are that the government may
vet reconsider it's determination to ask
Judge Sanborn for a postponement OF
the sale of the Union Pacific railroad.
No specific information on the subject
is at present obtainable but there are
reasons for the belief that the govern.
ment has received, or is in hourly ex.
p~ectation of receiving, an additional
proposition from the reorganization
committee. This propositionis believed
to be q very material increase in the
guarantee offer, provided the sale is
allowed to proceed on the date origin
ally fixed upon. This increase. it is re-
ported, will make the committee

All over this state republicans to-day
are bewaiiing the loss of the investigat-
ing committee raised by the last legisla.
ture and appointed by Gov. Lee to in
vestigate the records Of republican
officials since the organization OF the
state. Their party is simply demora lied
by the astounding evidences OF corrup-
ton and theft which have come to light
by one snort months work of Examiner
Taylor. who could doubtless unearth
much more if he had the time and
power necessary. The populists in the
legislature were satisfied of this condi-
ton of things when they raised the in
v~estigating committee and gave it power
to investigate and summon witnesses.
But how was it knocked out? BY the
Vaccinations of a state auditor who
has since proved himself to be M Of the
biggest thieves at the public crib, by an
attorney general who even refuses to
prosecute the villains when discovered,
by a supreme conrt evidently too parti
san to desire to see the matter sifted to
the bottom. The Interpretation Of our
laws are simply in bad hands. Republi.
cans themselves, except the machine
wound gladly know the worst that they
might build up anew, but the bosses
! will not let them. Much money is tt

~u.anipulators themselves, to carry thu
judicial elections next Tuesday for The

kim" gasped out.
Almost, captain-dont give up: for
the love of our dear little ones at
home, don't give up, captain!"
The oars flashed as the blades turn
ed up to the moonlight. The men who
Piled them were fathers, and had faith
ers' hearts; the strength which nerved
them at that moment was more than
human.
Suddenly Mr.. Larkin stopped pulling,
and my heart for moment ceased it's
beating; for the terrible thought that
he had given out crossed my mind.
But was quickly treasured by his
voice, Gently, captain, gently-a
stroke or two more-there, that will
do!"-and the next moment the boats
side came in contact with something,
and Larkin sprang from the boat with
his heavy feet upon the ice. started
up, and calling upon the men to make
fast the boat to the ice, followed.
We ran to the dark spot in the center
Of the mass, and found two little boys,
the head Of the smaller resting in the
bosom of the larger-both were fast
asleep! The lethargy which would
have been fatal but for the timely
rescue, had overcome them. Mr.. Lark

which he procured from the boat. l
did the same with the other child;
and we then returned to the boat, and
the men, partially recovered, pulled
slowly back.
The children, as we learned when
we subsequently had the delight Of re-
storing them to their parents, were
playing on the ice, and had ventured
on the cake, which had jammed into
the bend Of the river ten miles above
New York. A movement of the tide
set the ice in motion, and the little
fellows were borne away on that cold
night, and would inevitably have per-
ished but for Mr.. Larkin's espyiEg
them as the ice was sweeping out to
sea.
How do you feel?" said I to the
mate, the morning after this adven-
ture.
"A little stiff in the arms. captain"
the noble fellow replied, while the big
tears Of grateful happiness gushed
from his eyes-"a little stiff in the
arms, captain, but very easy here"
and he laid his hand on his manly
heart. My quaint, brave down-easter,
He who lashes the sea into fury, and
lets loose the tempest, will care for
thee! The storm may rage without,
but in thy bosom peace and sunshine
abide always.

PlETY AND PROSPERITY.

To Want Money Becomes Very Near Be
ing q Pious Desire.
Money is a convenient measure for
almost every sort Of endeavor and to
want more money wherewith to dis
charge our obligations and to help the
needy and promote good works, as we'll
as to increase our personal comfort,
comes very near being a pious desire,
says Scribner's. Thrift and honesty
come near. in the eyes Of contemporary
thinkers, to goodness. We have GER
tainly made great gain to thrift, and
there is no reason to think that, as a
people, we have refrigerated in homes
ty. We of this generation, when we
get into scrape, are not so much
disposed to insist that was Gods will
as to reason together and try to find
out what stupid thing we have done,
or what wise thing we have neglected,
that has resulted so disastrously.
This we do. not necessarily because we
are less religious than our forbears,
but perhaps because we are somewhat
more reasonable than they. 1t does
seem certain that this increased sense
Of our own responsibility is develop
ment that is to be regretted. However,
If any our friends who are solicitous
for our welfare have been disappointed
in some Of the effects or lack OF effect
Of adversely upon us let us hope that
they will be disappointed again, and
more agreeably, in the spiritual results
of any prosperity that may be vouch-
Safed to us,
