GROWING MILDER
DR.. Souchon Believes Yellow Fever
Will Soon Disappear. .

Jackson, November 17-Dr. Edmond
Souchon, president of the Louisiana state
board of health, spent portion of the day
here with Secretary Hunter, of the Missisz
sippi board, discussing the present fever in
fection. He expressed the opinion that the
original germs were not imported from
Cuba, but were production of the germ of
last year, which had not been entirely killed
by the severe weather. He emphatically
denied that the Jackson infection had been
brought from New Orleans, as no evidence
in support of such a claim had been pre-
sented. After the examination of the
pathological reports of several local cases
he stated that the symptoms were the same
as those of the New Orleans fever. DR..
Souchon says yellow fever is growing
milder each year, and he believes it will
entirely disappear or cease to be known
as yellow fever. He holds that the disease
is not so contagious as many people i'm
agine, and a great deal of the fear Is re-
sultant more from the name than any
thing else. He cited cases treated In the
New Orleans hospitals on beds n'ongside
those of patients suffering with other
troubles without infection being communI-
Gated.
Dr. Souchon attributed the light spread
this year to scientific sanitation, which he
says is the only effectual agency to stamp
out the disease.

THE STREET FAIR
PROJECT DROPPED
Time For Holding 1t Was

MAY TAKE IT UP NEXT YEAR
Commercial Bodies Decide That 1t
Would Be Inadvisable to Attempt
1t This Fall on Account of
Rush of Business.
MAY TAKE 1T UP NEXT YEAR
Birmingham will have no street fair this

Birmingham will have no street fair this
fall.
Such was the decision reached by the
board of directors of the Commercial club
and the Board of Trade yesterday.
1t is not deemed advisable to hold a
street fair so soon after the State Fair and
for that reason the matter was dropped.
The board of directors of the Commercial
club met yesterday morning to consider the
matter. Mayor Drennen was present and
requested the views of the directors of the
club. All agreed that the time was not
suspicious for holding a street fair, sand
WICKED in, as 1t were, between the closing
of the State Fair and the beginning of the
holidays. Mayor Drennen stated that he
had received satisfactory replies to queries
sent to mayors of several cities where
street fairs had been held reseptcing the
character of the entertainment,
The report of the special committee ap-
pointed by the Board of Trade to look into
| the matter of the fair was read by John
| w. o Neill. 1t was as follows:
I'VE, the committee appointed at a meet
ing of the board of control Wednesday, No
| vember Is, for the purpose of considering
| the feasibility of the Board of Trade I'M
| dertaking a street fair during the week be-
! ginning November 81, 1892 beg to report
| that in view of the fact that the Alabama
| State fair is just now coming to a close,
| and in view of the further fact that our
| merchants are very busy preparing for the
holiday trade, and would therefore have lit
tie or no time to get up suitable exhibits,
the enterprise in question, from Board of
Trade standpoint, would be impractical BILE
especially as a guarantee of $1,000 is asked
for by the street fair management Your
committee is of the opinion, however. that
a street fair, such represented by Mr..
j. B. Kimben of Columbus, Ca. would in
terest a large number of persons and IL
that gentleman chooses to give the fair at
his own risk the members of the Board of
Trade would be glad to encourage 1t with
their countenance and support.
I'm concluding this report, your commit
tee would recommend that the matter of
holding a street fair during next spring be
taken up for considerat ton by the Board of
Trade early in the new year. Respectfully
submitted,

And Mrs. L. B. Smith, of

Warmers Safe Cure, thus re-
counts the happy results :

YALE-HARVARD
Football Players Will Kick the Pigskin
and Each Other Today

Boston, Mass, November 17.-It Is all
Yale at the Hotel Vendome tonight, the
blue to win over the crimson on the foot
bali gridiron on the Harvard field. The
Yale team reached the hotel at o'clock,
and the boys were given a rousing recep-
tion.- The coaches are unanimous in their
opinion that the physical condition of the
men is well-nigh perfect. Trainer Robert
son says his men could not be more fit.
AS to the prospect for the game, the play
ers and coaches are content with saying
that Harvard will know that she has been
playing football when the game is ended
The Yale contingent, however, are more
jubiant than the early form of the team
would warrant Most of them say Yale
will surely win. The conservative ones hint
at such a result, while none are willing to
admit the chance of defeat.
Cambridge Mass, November 17.-Twenty
minutes of light signal practice by Harva I'd
today was considered enough to keep the
team in condition to meet Yale tomorrow.
The Harvard men are confident in the
strength of their unbroken defense They
think only a chance tumble can allow Yale
to score. Harvard's policy will be a hard
rushing game, attacking the new men in
the Yale line.
Yale will have a great advantage in the
pupting of Captain Mcbride. who will I'M
douibtedly play kicking game as long as
he can force Harvard to punt. Little faith
is placed in the Yale stories .about their
weak ends.
Harvard will depend largely upon the SUI
perb physical condition of the players.
