WORST DAY AT NEW ORLEANS.
NEW ORLEANS, LA, October 25-
Numerically this has been the worst day
in the fever situation here. AS early as
o'clock this evening the score OF the
Board of Health showed 81 new cases.
and there had been deaths to the number
of IL. Heretofore. the highest number
of deaths in a single day has been nine.
Unfortunately, there continues to be con-
cealment OF cases here. Fatalities occur
because 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 tesorting tn every
means in their power to put obstacles in |
the way Of the constituted authorities.
1t is generally agreed here that the |
house quarantine is not accomplishing the |
results expected When the fever first |
broke out efficient guards were placed |
about buildings. I'm the hope that the foci |
might be restricted, but to-day there is
no quarter of the city that has not re-
ported cases. and the germs are being
spread. as has been shown heretofore
in these dispatches, by reason of the
fact that the inmates of infected houses
have been successful, by means of rear
exits, in Guiding the vigilance OF the
guards stationed in front Of the premises
by the authorities.
President Oliphant, and other officers
Of the Board of Health. were very much

"Tennessee's Pardner.'

The play is an idyl Of the mount
AIMS, Introducing a series Of quaint
characters among scenes Of local in
terest. "Tennessee's PardneI" is the
name of one of Bret Harte's most
equisite stories. This play of Ten
nessee's Pardner" is entirely unlike
the literary work, but, as a likely,
quick moving drama, with enough of
the tragic to make the plot interesting
it deserves the success it met in New
York. 10 the play Tennessee Kent
appears as heiresS to her fathers
share in the Rocky Mountain mine,
and Caleb Swan is her "Pard." The
bride Of Asa Bice is recognized by
Swan as a more than questionable
character; her promise of good be-
havior, on condition that her story
shall remain untold, is too hard for
her to keep she plots with Roman,
her brother, to rob her husband the
plot is foiled by Tennessee, the bride
cruelty treated by her eccomplice, who
thinks she has played bin false, and
returns, bruised and bleeding to ask
forgiveness of her husband. Finally
the happy ending is brought al out by
Tennessee's good offices, and the
heroine, after a pretty comic confess
sion of love, is united to her chosen
"Pard." ''Tennessee's Pardner" is a
legitima ate comedy drama. 1t is not a
one star play nor a lone star cast. All
of the characters are powerfully
drawn, and the company n Of the
strongest that will be seen here this
season. 1t will appear at the Opera
House Friday, Dec. 18th.
The critics of San Francisco and
Los Angeles unite in their endorse
, ment Of this play and company.
