To the Editor OF the Dispatch:
If a landlord renting his land for the
term of one year enters into a written
argument with another party. does the
revenue law compel him 10 affix a 25-cent

The law requiring such stamping as Is

YELLOW-FEVER IN "a.
An Experience in Pht'"deiphi"
Hospital.


PAMPIIN CITY, VA, August B.-(Spe-
cial) ITO illustrate the difference between
the management of yellow-fever cases at
the present time and forty-iive years age,
l will state what came under my ooser-
walton at the Pennsylvania Hospital, IN
Philadelphia, in the year 1854.
In August or September OF that year
some six or seven cases Of that disease
were taken from a ship which had just
arrived from Habana and brought 10 the
hospital. They were sailors, ana, as wen
as | can recollect, had the black vomit
when they came i'm. Although the cholera
patients were at that time carefully isO-
lated and sent to "a cholera hospital be-
vond the Schuylkir river. no precautions
were taken with these cases of yellow
fever. and they were scattered in vacant
beds through the hospital next to patients
who were affected with other diseases.
Some of the most prominent physicians
i'm the city were called ia TO consult win
the hospital staff as 10 treatment. Among
them was DIR. La Roche, who had written
a treatise on yellow-feVer' But III spi'e
of everything that could be suggested
ana tried for their relief the patients all
died i'm a few days. The gases were very
had and far advanced when they came in.
one symptom, which particularly I'M
messed me. was the intense restlessness
OF the patients. They rolled from side 10
side of the bed necessarily, vomiting with
scarcely any effort
There were no more cases in the hospi-
tai or city during that summer. During
the prevalence of a terrible epidemic OF
yellow-fever in Memphis many years ago
a young lady. who lived near Bethany
church in this county, was taken vioient-
w IN and exhibited all the characteristic
symptoms of yellow-fever. black yomit'
and yellow tinge of skin. She lived only
a few DAYS. 1t was, perhaps, what physi-
clans call a sporadic case of yellow-ieVer'

Please give me in your query column

dies TO destroy ticks and keep them from

Some DAVIS ago we referred 10 the fact
that a suit has been prouSht dedinS' a., .

there was a discrimination, and that IL
was because of the race of the applicants
for insurance, there can be no DOUBT
but 1t Is a question II that discrimination
is covered by the law. The basis OF law
is Justice and common sense, ana II would
be neither Just nor sensible TO force an
insurance company To take a good RISK
and q bad one upon the same terms
The insurance people say that the queS-
ton is purely one of business, in which
neither sentiment nor prejudice cuts any
figure whatsoever None of the big com

will take the negro as RISK II II can De

the people herd together In ill-yentilated

The records of this city show that the
death rate among the blacks Is almost, If
not quite twice that OF the whites; and
Savannah's coiored population Is proba-

And I'm northern cities the conditions are

A Richmond Book.

(Religious Herald, August II, 1891
Some Of our readers will remember a
little series Of delightful letters printed in
the Religious Herald some time ago,
under the signature of Kate Cairns"
and giving a very readable account OF
trip - New England. The treatment OF
even so simple a theme was marked by
n lightness and sureness of literary touch
which were quite noticeable. Kate
Cairns" Is q Richmond lady, the wife OF
our friend. Mr.. G. q. Bosher. and she mas
done some excellent work. Her little
story "Bobbie." which has just been is
sued from the presses OF the Il. +. john
son Publishing Company. Is irresistibly
interesting. There IS no plot worth men
tloning. There Is no strained attempt TO
tell the story: Il tells itself. The theme
is not novel A DUy and girl-Bobbie and
Dorothy-grOw No together In the same
neighborhOod; they early feel and are
obedient TO strong mutual attraction;
the cruel war" separates them; they
have many yicissitudes and disappoint-
ments: but al length the tangle Is UNI
wound and the two loyal hearts, which
we're made for each other, md rest and
low I'm the contamination OF their vows.
The chief feature OF the book Is It's
delightful slmpicty-its utter freedom
rom extrayagance. There Is nothing NOR
bid or misshapen held up for admiration.
THE hook We believe, ~ Mrs. Bosher =
frst publication In that form, although
che has done excellent work In magazines
and periodicals. We confidently expect
other creditabe work from the same pen.
