They VIII BE Put Up Wherever
There Is Infectious Disease.
Exaggerated reports have been circulat-
ed as to the scarlet fever cases in Savan-
nah. Health officer LeHardy was yester-
day asked for statement of the exact
conditions
There are but five cases here" he said,
"and they are in the territory between
Taylor and CASTOR and Montgomery and
jefferson streets. There have been thir-
teen cases in all within the past month,
with three deaths This is the full extent
of the disease, We are taking every pre-
caution TO prevent further spread of the
disease, and to stamp it out soon / am
having placards printed, now that I have
been given permission to use them, and
will have them put up at once on all
houses where there is a case of the fever.
This Will warn parents and will be, as 1
view it, a great additional safeguard
against the spg cad of the fever 1 have
issued instructions to the parents having
The disease in their families, and if they
follow them the fever can be readily stop
ped. AS soon as possible after a death,
or after a case is dismissed, the premises
are dsinfected and the clothing, ETC., fumi-
gated.
THE fever, ]. believe, had its origin in
a case on Ninth street. which l have trac-
ed to the opening of a dry well on prem
ises where there had been fever a year
OF two ago. A nurse lettering around
when the dry well was being cleaned cut
contracted light case and communicated
it to the child she was attending. The
public need give itself no undue uneasi-
ness. Savannah is in exceptionally health
full condition. There is less fever of all
kinds than there was at this time last
year, and the outlook is for a healthful
summer"
There has been a strong tendency among
many to condemn DR.. LeHardy for not
putting up placards at once on the houses
in which there have been cases of fever
In justice to the health officer it can be
stated that he has favored the use of pla-
cards from the start.

A Lunatic Before the Court with a
Pain in Her stomach.

Pain in Her stomach.
Eliza Green (colored), who lives about
four miles from the city at place called
Biscuit HILL was tried before jury in the
Court of Ordinary yesterday afternoon on
the charge of lunacy. She was found to
be insane and ordered sent to the state
asylum at Milledgeville.
She was rather a queer case, her mania
consisting to a great extent in wandering
about in the hot sun, and in pulling up
vegetables in the gardens of her neigh
bors. She destroyed a whole truck patch
for one man who lives near her.
When she was brought before the jury
to be questioned, she said to Judge Ferrill,
Please don't ask me so many questions,
shave pain in my stomach" Again,
when Judge Ferrill told her she could go
out of the room she said All right, but
want to so to the DeSotos and the GUS
tom house now TO get something TO eat"
AS the woman has some little property
consisting of a house and five acres of
land valued at about $500, il was recon-
mended that a guardian be appointed for
her, which viii be done.

SERVANTS non A HOUSE.
Two Held for Theft at MIR. John
NisbeGs Residence.

NlSDcAS htAtucnCts
Joseph Ashley and Mary Green colored
are held at the police barracks charged
with robbng the residence of Mr. John J.
Nsbet, No. COB Whitaker street, where
they were employed as servants. 1t is be-
leved Ashley is the one who got $40 in
cash, the amount missing, besides wearing
apparel and other things, though he stout
g denies his guilt,
MIR. Nisbets family was preparing to
leave the city. as a result of which things
were naturally in a somewhat confused
state about the house. While the family
was a dinner, a purse or envelope contain
ing Sl70 was Jeff in the locked drawer of a
dresser In an upstairs room. When Mrs.
Nlsbet went for it, she found the drawer
broken and that the money. together with
other things had been taken.
A telephone message was sent the po-
lice, and Chief McDermott detailed Detec-
| lives Shea and Barrett to investigate the
robbery. On arriving at Mir. Nlsbets
| house, the detectives concluded in a mo-
ment it was the best thing to take all the
servants TO the barracks and question
them there. This was done by taking
every one who had any connection with
the house. though the officers knew, of
course there was only one possibly two,
who did the work. From what they were
told the detectives felt satisfied the money
had been taken by sope one Of the ser
wants.
After brief investigation dur
Ing which each was required to
tell in what part of the houae
he was during the day, Chief Nc
Dermott concluded Ashley was the one
upon whom there was suspicion nearly
amounting 20 proof The negro had been
sent by Mrs Nisbet during the day TO
pay bill, and when ne money was hand
ed him, he saw about how much there
was, and also where 1t was placed. This
knowledge naturally riveted the suspic-
ion on him, which was strengthened when
he told the officers he saw the butler take
the money and knew where he hid t..
Ashley further said he would point out the
place if taken to the house. When the
ofiicerJ arrived there with him. however,
he dalled for some time, until they saw
there was no possibility of his throwing
any light on the matter. They, therefore,
returned and again lodged him in the. bar
racks.
AS to Mary Green, it is believed she
stole several valuable garments, which
were also reported missing. Like Ash
ley, however. she denies knowing any
thing about the theft, but the officers feel
convinced they have the guilty and that
they will confess soon. The suspicion on
both is strong. Ashley even told the kind
of envelope contained the money, and also
that 1t was slightly torn on the corner,
which was correct.
Mr.. and Mrs. Nisbet do not entertain
any suspicion of David Smalls and Rosa
Houston, their faithful and trusted SER
wants, whose long service and excellent
character place them beyond being i'm
plicated in the crime.

TO INVESTIGATES THE PEST HOUSE
Health Omcer VIII Pay 1t a Visit
To-day

To-day.
Health Officer LeHardy will visit the
pest house east of the city to-day to de-
termine what improvements are, needed
there, in order that the place may be in
condition for any emergency. This is, of
course, not expected.
The pest house is in charge of Caretaker
NJ A. Fahey, and is in a secluded spot,
being reached by the Thunderbolt road to
the Cathedral cemetery, where road is
followed southeasterly to the place, just
beyond the old Deptford plantation There
is ample room for the accommodation of
scores of patients, since the building is a
two-story structure having large rooms,
which are said, parenthetically, to be too
well ventilated just now. If the house is
delapidated, is it explained in the fact that
it has not been used by the city since 1891,
when the last case Of smallpox was in
Savannah.
In accordance with resolution, DR..
LeHardy will report the result of his in
vestigation at the next meeting of the
sanitary board when such action as he
recommends may be taken as to the i'm
provements. The board intends to be alert
to arrange for demands that might come
from even possible danger.

HOW ABOUT THAT HORSE.

Two Court House officials Fail out

There was rather an interesting little
scrap between two court officials at the
