DANvILLE.
DR.. Haviland to Leave Town.

We regret to learn that DR.. N. c. B.
Haviland is about to leave the state to
reside. The doctor came back to his ma
tive town in September, 1886, and at
once commenced to have large and lu-
crative practice, enjoying in a marked
degree the confidence of the community
and was held in high esteem bv his
brother physicians. In June, 1882. he
formed partnership with DR.. o. E.
Carter OF North Danvile, which has con-
tinued to be a successful one until the
present time.
A general invitation being given out,
Tuesday evening the many friends Of
DR.. and Mrs. Haviland commenced to
assemble at their home, and by 9 o'clock
200 or more were present, filling their
cozy house to OVERLOOKING, and also the
residence Of DR.. Carter opposite. Sand
witches. cake and coffee were served.
An elegant emblem ring was given to
the doctor by his brother Knights Of
Damon lodge, a beautiful opal ring to
Mrs. Haviland by the sisters OF Diamond
chapter, No. IA, O. E. S., and Walter
was not forgotten by his mates and
friends, who presented him with hand
some watch chain. The present alton
speeches were made bv Rev. F. E. Cur
rier, Mrs. Emma Hoyt and Kent Knowl-
ton and were fittingly responded to.
Rarely, il ever, has there ever been a
larger gathering at private house in
Danville, and never have family moved
from town who have lett more or
warmer friends, or who will be more
universally remembered. DR.. Havland's
father who has been living with him the
past year, will stop at B. F. Haviland's
for the present and will 60 to the doc
tors later.
DIR. Haviland has been prominent in
educational and social affairs and has
always been public spirited, generous and
anxious for the improvement of his town
and village.
He commences practice March in the
thriving town of HOLSTER, Mass, being
associated with DR.. c. p. Hutchinson. a
leading and much respected physician
there. The CALIFORNIAN joins his many
friends in wishing him an extended field
OF usefulness and an equally successful
practice in his new home.

TYPHOID SPREADING.
Infected Regiment to BE
Moved Away.

CAMP MEADE, MIDDLETowN, Pa,
Sept. 27.-Typhoid fever is getting in
its deadly work at Camp Meade. Three
deaths occurred between Saturday
night and yesterday morning. One
was Private William Morgan, Company
A, First Maryland, whose remains were
shipped yesterday evening to Frederick
City, Md. The others were Corporals
Roy w. Johnson and August Foss,
Company Fl. Second regimeng, engineer
corps.
Private S. Thompson of the corps
reserve ambulance company, who was
taken away from here by the Lancaster
general hospital ten days ago, died Sun
day night Of typhoid. Private Draper
L. Ferry, Company M, Ninth Pennsyl-
vania, died yesterday at the Harrisburg
hospital of fever contracted in the south.
His body was shipped to New Albany.
Bradford county. Private Benjamin
Derlouiner, Company M, Tenth Ohio,
was struck by lightning and instantly
killed last evening during heavy rain
storm, while guarding the tent of a
military tailor. Derlouiner's home is at
Cincinnati.
The disease is spreading so rapidly in
VhO W. i1Oh0lCo anu 1hlIo NOW
York that the regiment will be sent
away as soon as suitable camp
ing ground is found. The en-
gineers were hunting for a site yester-
day, and IL is probable that the troops
will be isolated in the Conewago hills
in the vicinity of Elizabethtown. New
tents will be issued to them and extra
precautions taken to confine the disease
to this command.
A tralnload of typhoid patients was
taken to Philadelphia hospitals last
evening by a Red Cross train. This SO.
ciety is taking excellent care of the sick
in its hospital here, and has secured the
ser ices OF Il specialist to treat the ty-
phold cases, The patients are cared for
by trained female nurses assisted by de-
tails from the reserve ambulance corps.
Chief Surgeon Girard will continue to
send the sick to hospitals as fast as they
can be moved with safety. Patients are
being furloughed from the two division
hospitals whenever they are able to
travel alone.
Colonel Girard has received permits
sion from Surgeon General Sternburg
to employ additional contract surgeons.
There is comparatively little sickness in
the corps outside of the New York regi-
ments.
The order consolidating the Fifteenth
Pennsylvania regiment and the Ninth
Ohio colored battalion has been revoked,
and they will remain separate and dis
tinct.
The ladies of the Soldiers Rest at

Alleged Confession of OxIey Regarding
the Affair With Miss Gill.

BRIDGEPORT, Conn, Sept. 27.-The
complaint against Oxley and Guernsey,
in the Emma Gill case, was changed
yesterday from attempt to procure an
abortion to that of manslaughter.
The brother of Harry Oxley said that
when Harry was arrested his mother
told him to tell the whole truth in the
case, and this is his story in substance:
Emma Gill told him of her condition
and he told Guernsey, and the latter
told him to marry the girl. He went
to Emma Gill and expressed his willing
ness to marry her. She said she knew
DR.. Guilford and that she could cure
her of her trouble by an operation. She
did not wish to marry him because
there was another fellow (Foster) who
wanted to marry her and did not know
her true character. She considered
him better catch.

The Morgantown correspondent of
the Intelligencer has had a pipe dream
and says that out of twenty-five gold
democrats whom he has interviewed
but one will support McGraw. Those
whom he interviewed must have been
of the stripe of democracy that at
tends republican meetings and does
everything else in the same party in
GLIDING talking and voting except
calling them selves republicans. They
masquerade as democrats and are in
reality republicans of the most rapid
description. OF course these men will
not vote for McGraw and that fact
should be comforting one for the
candidate.

Ehis VIII Not Throw Our Troops Into
Cuba at Time When There Is SO
Much Danger of sickness-25. 900 Prob
ably Enough.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 27.-The authori-
ties here feel, it was stated yesterday,
that by consentiug to the entry of the
Comal with food supplies, the Spanish
officials i'll large measure ridded the
question of evacuation of the urgency
that attached to it. So long as the
Cubans, starving and naked, were de-
MED the relief that might come to them
from the United States government and
the Red Gross, there was a powerful
reason for insisting upon the immediate
evacuation of Cuba by the Spanish gov
eminent officials, in order that, taking
possession ourselves, we might suceor
the distressed Cubans. Now, however,
that our government is free to do this
under existing conditions, there is not
the same necessity for haste, and the
war department will not be obliged to
force American troops in numbers into
Cuba III the very worst part of the
season, SO far as health conditions are
concerned. Even among the immune
regiments at Santiago there seems to be
much sickness.
1t may be said that the president ex-
poets that the movement for evacuation
will begin toward the latter part of Oc-
tober and be concluded soon after New
Year. 1t is expected that the plan will
be to place a garrison at one point after
another, beginning probably at the
western end of the island. The au-
thorities have reached the conclusion,
in view of the spirit shown by the
Cubans as reported TO it, that no more
than $4,000 men will be required.
