FEVER UNDER CONTROL.
It is Reported That it is Not Spread
ing in New Orleans.

New Orleans, Sept 25.-Eminent doc
tors believe that the work of the
board of health is productive of good
results, and that the fever is not
spreading, but on the contrary is being
confined to localities Thus far there
have been a few less than 100 cases. and
Is deaths. The death rate is in the
neighborhood of Is per cent 1t was
in 1878, Is per cent; so that up to the
present time the disease is about as

There were nine new cases yester-

OF the ninety odd cases in New Or
leans from the beginning but four have
been among the negro population.
There are still several serious cases
among those who are i'll, but the board
of health is daily discharging patients
as cured
The situation is generally unchanged
freight is moving slowly, and there is
practically no passenger traffic The
theaters are still open and amusements
are not restrained But that New Or
leans is losing hundreds of thousands
of dollars by foolish quarantine is not
to be doubted The ordering by the
Southern Pacific company of the
steamer Elnorte from New York to
Galveston means that all eastern
freights destined for the Pacific coast
will go through the Texas port until the
quarantine embargo against this city
is raised.

CHILKOOT LANDSLIDE.
It Swept the Village of Sheep Camp
Of the Earth

Port Townsend, Wn., Sept 25.-Capt-
Nelson, master of the tug Pioneer,
says:
Three men came to Skaguay beach
on Monday night with a story to the
effect that at Sheep Camp, at half past
three o'clock Monday morning, a pecu-
liar sound from the southwest side of
the mountain was heard, and before
the residents of the camp could fully
dress they found themselves rapidly
born down the canyon on a mass of
moving debris from the mountain side.
majority of the residents of Sheep
Camp escaped. although nearly the en-
tire village was destroyed
The slide struck the town in the
northern part where nearly all the
packers were quartered in tents and
asleep. The main part of the slide from
the mountain missed Sheep Camp prop
er, although from the report very little
of the town remains The packers
camp was wholly carried away and it
is impossible to learn the names of the
unfCrtuuateS as they were all known
by their first names, such as Jack, Jim.
Dick, etc. The cause OF the slide was
reported to be the action of heavy
rains on the hills where a large reser-
voir was formed, which body of water
and weight forced the land down the
basin below. Never before have such
heavy rains been experienced in the
neighbOrhood of the Chi1koOt pass"

men and children known as the most
earth, to put in this coming winter in
obtaining seal, bear and deer skins for

have singled out eight young men of

sIeighs and tents. to accompany me to
Sherard Osborne FJord, which is about
800 miles further north than their pres

My party will consist of a surgeon,

Longevity and Sleeping by Compass


A Magdeburg physician, according to
the Lyon Medical, who died recently at
Tie age of 100, attributed his remark
able longevity to his constant practice
of sleeping with his head to the north
and his feet to the south. He consider
ed this position most favorable to the
magnetic currents which run constant
ly toward the north pole, and increase
the energy of the vital principle. A
correspondent of DR.. Felix Bremond
found that kind of nervous irrita-
tion to which he was subject ceased
when he placed the head of his bed a
little east of north. This position of
the head of the bed brought him more
sound and peaceful slumber. and with
such regularity that when he wished
to rise earlier than usual in the morn
ing, all he had to do was to change the
direction of the head of his bed, when
his sleep became lighter and of shorter
duration. DIR. Bremond himself how
ever, found that the direction of his
body made no difference to the sound
ness of his slumbers, provided he went
to sleep in comfortable bed, at the
usual hour and at the end of day of
active work. boston Medical and
