The Situation At New Orleans.

IhB SltuatiO1 At New orleans.
New ORLEANS Sept. 16.-There has
been no further change in the fever
situation since the official bulletin OF
| the board of health Tuesday night, de-
claring five new cases of yellow fever.
In the matter of the five suspected
cases, it was understood that the board
of experts would pay visits again to
further note the condition of the
patients and to complete their dag
nosis.
Numerous suspected cases are being
reported to the board, but many OF
them are known to show no traces of
yellow fever. So widespread is the
concern in the situation that it is doubt
fui if any case of fever appears with
suspicious circumstances attending it,
that it is not Immediately brought to
the attention of the, board by neighb borS
Every case reported is entered and rap
idly Investigated, and the board is con-
stantly adding to it's staff of inspectors.
The absence of mortality is having a
tendency to strengthen public conf
dence in the methods which are being
applied in the treatment of the cases.

town will probably remain and

of travelling through parishes
and counties that are terrorized by the
wild reports of the plague, and which
are receiving visitors with shotguns
instead of open arms.
On the streets there is no semblance
of excitement, and what business there
is to transact locally is going on with
out interruption. 1t is only at the
steamer and ship landings and at their
depots that any evidences of the effect
of the fever here are found. So
many towns are quarantining against
river craft that most of the boats will
have to be withdrawn for the time
being. At railroad depots very little
freight is being handled, and the pas
senger business has dwindled to moth
ing. The Louisville Sc Nashville has
taken off it's through train leaving in
the morning, and its through train ar
irving in the evening. The Mis-
sisSippi Valley has withdrawn
it's regular daily train to and
from Memphis
The board of health will prosecute,
vigorously as possible. its efforts to
have the clothing and baggage of all
:he people who have arrived from in
fected parts disinfected. 1t is hoped
thereby to crush any germs that exist
here and that have not yet gotten in
their work.

When slender. light hand was upraised

And our kisses were pressed on its slim

For that circle Of gold seemed shanow-

OF homage profounder than words dare
allege.
But the metal that's purest wears quickest
away,
And that old wedding ring has grown
thinner to-day:
Yet the hand which it graced graces it in
its turn
With magic the alchemist vainly would
learn.
For sweet charity's touch has so filled it
with gold
That that hand never lacked to the hungry

And the summers may come, and the sum-

And the winters may whiten the hair with
their snow;
Still the hand which, a lover delighted to

Wears the signet Of half a century's
bliss,
Anu no earnest of joy in the Heavens above
Is more sure than that ring and it's cycle
of love.

THE SHAM BATTLE.
Work in the Field and u
Fort Falls.

Over 5000 people witnessed the sham bat
tie given by the Third regiment at EXPOSE
tion park last night. Country cousins
ioined in with their city hosts in cheering
on the boys in blue to daring deeds of
valor. The battle was fought with zeal
that would have been credit to the men
had they been fighting to protect their
own fresides.
The Third Regiment band opened the
military programme with band concert.
At the conclusion. Company X. commanded
by Captain Wagar. gave an exhibition
drill and received rounds Of applause for
its skillful maneuvers. The tactics were
those of the regulation drills and the COM
pany covered itself with honors. The Hale
Zouaves then treated the crowd to zou-
ave drill that astonished those who had
not seen the company on exhibition before.
The rapid movements of the company. with
few perceptible errors, was bowling sue

Then came the event of the evening. The
band struck up lively air that brought
the regiment on the grounds at double

Over the breastworks of the fort appeared
the cold muzzle of a cannon and anon a
sentry could be seen as he passed along
the breastworks. Moving cautiously to-
ward the fort was Company K, in COM
mand of Captain Wagar. The besieging
company was still a hundred yards from
the fort when it was discovered. and then
the fort belched forth smoke and fire
enough to scare a good sizeu army to an
inglorious retreat. Company X fought gall
lantly, but was about to retreat with half
its men mown down when it was reinforced
by other companies. OF course the battle
waged the fiercer with each company that
was added to the attacking party. After
about 10000 rounds of ammunition had
been fired the part Of the battery with the
attacking party opened fire and the fort
was demolished. 1t burned up and Major
