SURROUNDS THE DEATH OF F. w. AIKEN, OF 1855
 BROADWAY, N. Y"
HIS HOME IS UNKNOWN.
Worked ina Typewriter Factory at Montg0mery-Remains Will
 be buried Here.

A body, which is thought to be that of F. W. Aiken is lying at Robinson's undertaking establish ment. awaiting Identification or telegrams from relatives, if any.
 The body was brought to this city Friday from the Caney bayou section house, the first section house above Pine Bluff on the Iron Mountain road,
 Last Thursday night the man who nov lies cold in death, and who was then walking along the track near Caney Bayou, stopped at the sectioL house and told the section hands that be was sick and asked permission to sleep upon the porch. He was invited to come inside but refused and said be would make himself comfortable on the hard floor. The occupants of the "house" retired and when they awoke the next morning they found the stran- ger dead upon the porch. It was very evident that he died during the night from his illness.
 4 few business cards together with some tools were found upon bis person. The cards read, IF. W, Aiken, Expert Typewriter Adjuster, No. 855 Broadway, New York City. "
 The section hands did not know what to do with the poor unfortun- ate and they placed his body upon handcar and brought it to Robin sons undertaking establishment, where it was prepared for burial. The dead man looks to be about 4l or 42 years of age, and has a sandy moustache, and round face. He has the appearance of being all intelligent man. Ee stood about 3 feet, b inches ln height.
 Prosecuting Attorney W. B. Sor- rells is delaying the burial in hopes that he may find some relatives of the deceased. He wired to the New York authorities, but they could find DO relatives at 855 Broadway. The Montgomery, Ala, authorities were then notified. They investi- gated the affair and found that be once worked in the Remington type writer factory there, but nothing was known of his relatives or his permanent home. The Greenville, Miss, people knew nothing of Aiken, but ans wered that probably the Mayor of Syracuse, N. Y., or the manager of the Postal Telegraph company of Norfolk, Va, may be able to give tbeinformation wanted. MT. Sorrells wired the Postal's man. ager at Norfolk, but he was as igno- rant of the facts regarding Aiken as the rreyious ones, who had been sought after for information.
 If nothing can be learned regard ing Aiken by today at noon, his body VI in all probability be in- tered in the !Potters' field at the cost of Jefferson county this after. noon
 The deceased looked to be mem Der of some excellent family. His every appearance is gentlemanly. like and the great mystery will doubtless be cleared by an inquiry as to Alken's whereabouts a few years from this date.

CAUSES THIRTY-THREE DEATHS.
Cerebro Spinal Meningitis UnusuaiIy
Prevalent Here.

During the four weeks closing with yes
terday there occurred in the District eight
more deaths from cerebro spinal menin-
gifts than We're reported during the fiscal
year ending June 80 1888 But twenty-five
deaths We're reported here from this dis
ease during the year indicated, while no
less than thirty-three have been reported
during the past four weeks.
Cerebro spinal meningitis, or yellow
fever, as it is sometimes called. according
to Dr. VIM. c. Woodward. the District
health officer. is a disease of which little
is known by the medical profession beyond
the fact that the death rate among persons
afflicted with 1t is extremely large, running
from 30 to 80 per cent. 1t is also malady
OF short duration. as a usual thing. death
resulting in most instances from twenty
four TO thirty-six hours. AS a rule it is
most prevalent among young adults In
the thirty-three deaths reported TO the
local health officer during the past four
weeks the ages ran from six months to
sixty-nine years, the average age being
twenty-four years. OF the thirty-three per-
sons dying but ten were colored.
Although the disease is claimed to be
contagious, but two deaths among those
reported during the past four weeks oc-
CURED in the same house. which is taken
as evidence of the malady being much less
contagious than smallpox, scarlet fever
diphtheria and like disorders.
In one respect smallpox and cerebro
spinal meningitis are in the present in
stance coincident, each disease being most
prevalent in the southwestern section of
the city. From this. it is argued by some
that the latter malady may be attributed
10 vaccination. it being contended by those
who so hold that there has been much
more vaccination in the southwestern sec
ton of the city than in any other. With
this DR.. Woodward does not agree nor
does he place much faith in the assertion
that the prevalence of the disease in this
section is due to the practice of troops
passing or stopping off there when on their
way to other points.
The fact is" he stated today, we know
SO little of the disease that little can be
said with certainty of it. 1t is unusually
prevalent in many other cities at the pres
ent, as 1t is here, but just why, 1 cannot
positively say.
