Would brighten IA the blue;
II cruel words were kisses,
And every seoWl a smile,
A better world than this Is
Would hardly be worth while.
II purses would untighten
To meet brothers need,
The load We hear would tighten
Above the grave OF greed,
II those who whine would whistle
And those who lanBuish laugh,
The rose would rout the thistle.
The grain outrun the. chan;
II hearts were only Jolly,
II grleving were forgot,
And tears and melancholy
Were things that now are not
Then Love would knoel to Duty,
And all the world would seem
A bridal bower of beauty,
A dream within dream,
II men would cease to worry,
And women cease to sigh,
And all be glad to bury

LATEST Rf R1s SAY FORTY CASES

New Orleans, Sept. 15.-At the close of the days investigation by the board of health at o'clock this evening the fever situation so far, at least, as New Orleans is concerned, was considered to have materially improved. There was less anxiety thanat any time since Mon- day among the health officials, and they are encouraged to believe that by no means have they lost control of the sit uation, and that 1t was quite within the range of probability to expect that in short time the superior quarantine and sanitary methods employed will pre- vail and crush out the bronze visitant.
 During the day there were twenty cases reported to the health board for investigation. Of these two are still un- der investigation, two were reported as suspicious and as requiring further diagnosis, fourteen were found to be al harmless kind of fever and two were pronounced genuine yellow fever. Of these two, one is the case of an old French butcher, Herman Dartois, living on Mason street in the immediate vi- cinity of the French market. His case was prematurely reported last night as yellow fever. The second case today is that in the Touro inflrmary one of the semi-private hospitals of the city. The latest patient was taken to the hospital Monday from Poidras and Rampant streets in this city. These two cases are the only ones which the physicians havs been able to trace to Ocean Springs.
 At Touro there are some 200 sick pso- pie, and the utmost caution is being dis- played in order to prevent any possible spread of the disease.
 Millions of gallons of water have al- ready been pumped through the streets, and with the general situation showing es much improvement as it does tonight confidence is steadily being strength- ened.
 The stormy weather since Saturday, has had the effect of increasing the num- Der of cases at Ocean Springs. Conduc- tor Johnson, Of the Louisville and Nash vile, was stricken today, together with three others.
 One new case was reported at Biloxi this morning. It is that of Rev. c. r. Emery, pastor of the Methodist church, making three in his family.
 Biloxi now has forty-nine cases of sickness. Of these nineteen are yellow fever, six are suspicious, and a diagnosis as to thirteen is reserved. There have been no deaths at Biloxi.

MORE OF THE YELLOW ME TAI Two and a Half Millions of Gold
 From KIondyke ON BOARD THE EXCELSIOR
More Con6rmations of Impending Famine in the Eldorado--Dawson City Has 1000
 Miners Waiting For Transportation.

San Francisco, Sept. 15.-The long overdue steamer Excelsior, which left St. Michaels, Alaska, for this port six weeks ago, but was compelled to put. back to Unalasl1a for repairs, after hay ing broken two blades of her screw, ar- rived here this morning with slxty-thre. passengers and about $2,500,o00 in gold.
 Of those who came down from Alaska all but two are known to have money, but few were communicative enough to admit how much they had.
 All unite in confirming the storiss a1- ready told of the impending danger of famine at Dawson City during the coming winter. they say there are at least 1000 people now at Dawson City and that more are swarming in every day; that the provisions are already running short and the prospects of get ting more in are remote.
 The Excelsior's passengers are unani- nous in the opinion that tn. Klondyke region is richer than at first supposed, but are also of the opinion that unless the immigration ito that country is stop ped temporarily there will be terrible suffering.
 Louis Sloss, Jr., of the Alaska Com mercial company, was one of the pas sengers on the Excelsior. He went to Dawson City for the company and re- ports all good claims are taken up.
 There is no chance for the new corners unless a rich strik+ is made on some other section. MT. Sloss says that his company's store at Dawson was clos ed for but one day to receive freight from an arriving steamer He thinks provisions will be scarce. but hesitates to say there will bs actual starving There are about 300 impatient miners at St. Michaels, most of whom will have to stop until the spring unless they have already secured passage on the river boats. There are plenty of prvisions at St. Michaels and every ef- fort is being made to get supplies up the river to Dawson.
 It Is difficult to say how much money was brought down by the Excelsior. The miners are secretive and will give no accurate information. Some of them, it is known, could not bring much and will be glad to go to work down here. The Alaska Commercial company re- ceived large consignment of treasure but will not say exactly how much. When asked as to the amount MT. Sloss said:
 "we brought more than came down on the Portland and we did not need any maxim guns to protect it."

EPIDEMIC AT EDWARDS, MISS.
Seven Cases and Many Suspects Jackson vir-
 tually Closed--Papers Shut Down.

Jackson, Miss, Sept. 15.-The state capital depopulated, its business houses closed, It's newspapers suspended, seven cases of yellow fever announced at its doors with many suspected cases at va- rious points, an embargo on the rail- roads of the state and grave apprehen- sions that the dread disease has ob- tained foothold in various parts of the state, wild alarm everywhere; such is the conditions existing in the middle, western and northern portions of the state today.
 The worst fears of the medical fra ternity and the public have been realiz- ed and the prevailing disease at Ed- wards has been pronounced yellow fe- yer.
 The state of health has laid a gen. era1 embargo on travel except out of the state by means of an order pro mulgated this afternoon and addressed to all lines of transportation. Travel from Infected places is absolutely bar red. The bright side of the situation is that the disease Is of a very mild type. The exodus from this city, which began in small way several days ago, has attained unprecedented propor- tions. While the state board advises all who can to leave the railroads say they can handle the largest crowds. The most rigid local quarantine prevails here.
 Dr. Guiteras reached Edwards al 4:s0 a. m. today, and after investigation sent the following message to the state board:

CONJUGAL LIFE CURED CREDE.
When Mrs. Crede Wanted to Resume Welded
Bliss the Millionaire Sought Sud
den Death.

Los Angeles, Cal, July l3.-NIcho-
las Crede, the millionaire mine own
er, for whom Crede, Colo, is named,
committed suicide last night at his
home in this city, because his wife,
from whom he is separated, insisted
upon renewing their marriage rela-
tions.
January IA last Crede aud his wife
separated and agreed to dissolve at
once and, as far as possible, without
legal process, their marital bonds.
Mrs. Crede accepted $4,000 in cash
and surrender of all further claims
upon her husband, at the same time
voluntarily withdrawing from his
premises. 1t was understood, after
the necessary time had elapsed, Crede
would begin butt for divorce. Mrs.
Crede took up her home in Alabama.
About three weeks ago Mrs. Crede
returned to Los Angeles, and pro-
posed to her husband a reconciliation.
This was much to Crede's distaste,
and he determined to end his life.
Last evening he took large dose of
morphine and went into the garden to
die. He was discovered by a servant
and medical aid was summoned, but
he died two hours later.

GOOD DRILLING
FOR THE TROPHY.
Corporal TwOmey Will Wear the
Rifiemen's Medal in
Camp.
VIGGINS, SOMEHOW, WENT WRONG.
Jeffers Takes Second Prize and the Inspection
Prize-Then the Young
Folks Danced.

Corporal John P. Twomey outstood
all competitors in the crack cham
pionship drill of the Rifemen last
night, and will have the distinction
of wearing the bright gold medal of
the command through the st. Simon
encampment.
1t took the best of drilling to win
the medal last night, because the
"boys all wanted it and did the best
that was in them. Twomey went
through the tactics with correctness
that would be worthy of a first class
West Pointer.
Capt. Ernest Dart was Judge, and
Lieut.. Stephens and Lieut.. Dunn gave
the commands. There was a large
and interested attendance.
One by one the men went down un-
til only five were left standing. They
were Virgins, Twomey, Ulsch, JEFF
fers and Miller. Ulsch and Miller
were dropped for shutting the wrong
eye In aiming, and, soon after, Ser
geant John Virgins, who was picked
by the crowd as the winner, made a
mistake, and received the usual invI-
tation to take seat and watch some
other fellow win.
Twomey got the medal, and Jeffers
the second prize, huge cake, donated
by W. Z, Speer, the A street baker.
Previous to the prize drill, inspec-
ton was held, and Sergeant Jeffers
was awarded the prize, volume of
poems. The young people present en-
joyed a dance after the military
events.
