New Orleans, Sept. 1s.-The fever
situation In New Orleans has assumed
a. somewhat more serious aspect than
at my time since Sunday, when six
Of the st. Claude cases were declared
to be yellow fever. The board OF
health officially announces the appear
ance of eight new cases and one
death, that of Zena Brauner. At the
Office Of the board Of health the days
reports were considered somewhat
surprising and disappointing.
The situation had so materially i'm
proved that it was felt that pretty
much the worst had come and that
conditions would improve. Yesterday,
however. was one of the hottest days
Of the month, and as yellow fever
thrives in that character of weather,
there seems to have been a rapid de-
velopment Of germs. The physicians
sill feel, however, that there is
much that it satisfactory in the stu
alton. 1t is true, however, that the
new cases represent the extreme up
per, the extreme lower and the CEN
'tr1l portion Of the city. and there has
been no serious spread from original
foci. and the opinion is still expressed
that the disease may be controlled
and that there is no Imminent danger
Of an epidemic.
In the meantime there has been no
relaxation Of efforts on the part Of the
health authorities to control the dis
ease. They realize that they are
graphing with dangerous and In
sidi0us foe, and neither time nor
money is being spared in fighting 1t.
The force of inspectors and police Of
flcers is being steadily increased and
quarantine measures are becoming
more and more rigorous. On the whole
the weather conditions were advan.
tageous. A heavy rain storm lasting
for several hours flooded the streets,
thoroughly flushed the cutters and
tempered the atmosphere, and while
cooler weather is somewhat dangerous
for the sick 1t liz material aid in
frustrating spread of the disease.
The city is comparatively calm. Peo-
pie continue to leave in small parties
but there is nothing like the wild exo-
dus that depopulated Mobile, Jackson
and other cities.
The situation was somewhat quieter
at Ocean Springs. Three cases, how
ever, were reported. The report Of
the hoard of health at Biloxi is that
there are nineteen cases Of actual gel
low fever under treatment with dag
nosis reserved as to twelve cases.
There were seven new cases reported
In the last twenty-fOur hours. The
doctors ut Biloxi are tempted now no
longer to class cases as ;isuspicious, but
come out boldly and say they are
yellow fever. n
One Death at Mobile.
Mobile, Ala, Sept. 18.-The days re-
port shows no increase in the ratio Of
cases and but one additional death,
that Of ]. L. Taylor, bricklayer, who
came here from West Virginia four
weeks ago. He had been in bad con-
dition physically ever since his arrival.
There are three suspicious cases and
others are spoken of but they have not

Crines and Criminals,

Benjamin Zoeckler, one of the most
extensive cattle dealers in the South
west, killed himself at Phoenix, Ariz.,
by pistol shot back Of the ear. Busi-
ness reyegses were the cause. ~

name Of Fry, two farmers Of Gaze
novia, Wis, got into a quarrel. Fry

Iowa Falls, Iowa, of assault with in

Customs officers ut Laredo, Texas,
searched an unclaimed satchel found

900 worth of diamonds, jewelry and

satchel was stolen from Spaniard
by an American, who afterwards mis-
laid the package and feared to claim
ownership.
Mrs. Breese recently arrived in Hot
Springs, Ark, from Texas, committed
suicide with rat poison. The only

The college football team played its
first game of the season last Saturday.
its opponents claiming to represent the
Rutland Institute. The result was the
defeat of the local team by a score of &
to 0. The game was devoid of spectacu-
lar plays, with the possible exception of
a fine run around left end for gain of
81 or 40 yards by Rice, the left back for
Middlebury. The college boys were
clearly superior to their opponents in
tactical playing, but were so much out
cassed in weight that their line could
not resist the repeated charges of the
heavy backs of the Rutland eleven. The
gains of the latter team were made al.
most wholly by this monotonous play,
and their one touchdown resulted from
it. In fairness to themselves, the Mid
dleburv boys should decline to enter a
game wherein the opposing team, while
bearing the name of an educational IN
stitutiOn. has strengthened itself from
the outside. a defeat from team 50
constituted will be credited to the school
they assume to represent. while a vic
tory will lose half its zest to the win.

1t appears that at the time of his death,
Frank Severance was not, as stated in
our last issue, engaged with the Deering
manufacturers. but with the Mccormick
Harvesting Machine Co. of Chicago.
For several months he had been in charge
of the interests of the company In two or
three states, and had conducted them so
successfully that the management de-
cided to place him in control of their
business in all New England. leading
representative of the corporation came
from Chicago to Boston expressly to in
form Mr.. Severance of his promotion,
and assist in establishing him in his
larger work, but while searching for him
learned of his sudden death. This officer
earnestly requested that the friends of
Mr.. Severance might be assured that the
company had never employed man who,
by efficiency and faithfuness, had more
quickly won its confidence and esteem.
They regretted his loss both because of
his fine business ability and his excellent
qualities as man. We take pleasure in
recording this hearty testimonial, and
are sure it will be gratifying to Mr..
Severance's many friends in Aliddlebury.

An Enellsh Road.

Take the road that leads from Strat- ford to Coventry, and you will havo taken the loveliest road in all England. So say the travellers, and here is story that looks as if there might be grain of truth in the statement An Ameri- can woman who crossed the Atlantic announced her intention of driving rather than ''railroading" through Great Britain. Well" observed . neighboring English woman, you wou't find lovelier drive throughout the lands length and breadth than that from -" "Yes, she will, too, 1" in- corrupted another Englishman. "0f course I don't know the road you re thinking of, but whatever it is 1t can't compare with the one l have in mind. |" The argument upon the subject at length waxed so warm between the two that the American suggested that each write his 'drive" upon slip of paper, tho slips to be handed to her and not open. ed until she had set foot on British soil This was agreed upon. And when the American woman opened tho slips she read upon the first, From Stratford to Coventry" and upon tho second. From Coventry to Strstford. "--New York Sun.
