The Soldiers' Home Has Over 1000 In

NEWPORT News, Va. (SpeciaD.-Yellow
fever ha. broken out at the National SOL
diers' Home at Hampton. There is no
doubt about the nature OF the fever, as It
was given out officially that the disease
was yellow fever. The physicians, Ma
tional and State quarantine officers, who
consulted, expressed their suspicions when
the cases we're first brought to their at
tention, but it was decided to make no
announcement until they we're positive.
An official statement given out on the
day after the disease was reported stated
that there we're thirty cases OF fever in the
place. and that there we're ten deaths from
the disease.
DR.. VIC. Pettus, United States Marine
Hospital Surgeon at Old Point Comfort,
uuarantined against the Home and no per-
sons are allowed to enter the reservation.
The officials OF the Home have no idea
how the disease worked its way into the
place, where over 1000 old Union veterans
are quartered. 1t was reported that some
OF the soldiers who mingled with sailors
from Southern countries in Pbebus car
rled the fever into the Homs, but there Is
no evidence OF this. A soldier was re-
ceived at the institution about two weeks
before from Sabine Pass, Texas, but the
authorities at the Home will not say that
he Ia raenonsible for the admission OF the
disease.
The disease was first discovered several
days ago, but at that time there was doubt
about its being yellow fever. When the
disease was yellow fever steps were taken
Immediately to prevent 1t spreading. The
Home authorities have issued orders pro-
hibiting all soldiers from leaving the
grounds, and those who live outside will
not be allowed to enter pending the quar-.
antine. The United States Marine Hospital
Service has taken charge OF the Home. All
electric cars now stop at Ph95us, and no

of q Large Assemblage.
Cory, Penn. Especially Frank Reynolds,
Of Ripley, Caautauqua County, fell 5000
feet to his death. The Findlay's Lake As.
sembly, at Flndlay Lake, fifteen miles from
this city, had engaged Reynolds to make
balloon ascension and parachute Jump.
REYNOLDS, who was twenty-five years OF age
and had a wlfe and child, is said 20 have
been inexperienced. He had made but one
ascension before and had never dropped
with parachute.
Preparations were made, and when Key.
nolds stripped for tho Jump and appeared
ready to ascend, tho wind was blowing IN
strong from Lake Erie, eight miles north.
The assembly grounds are on the nortn.
west shore OF the little lake. The wind
was certain to drive the balloon over tho
lake. It promised to be dangerous drop
for a seasoned veteran, but Reynolds, the
novice, never faltered. An immense crowd
was present.
When the balloon had reached a height
which appeared to be fully 5000 feet IN the
air and directly over Findlay's Lake, It
was seen that the unfortunate young man
had dropped with the parachute. He
came down slowly. The aeronaut's Young
wife shouted that Reynolds could not
swim and would drown. Boats were
quickly put out.
Reynolds struck the water where the
lake is ninety feet deep. He threw up his
hands and sank like stone. The nearess
boat was yet 200 feet of. He was drowned.
