MIAMI PANIC-sTRICKEN.
A TrainIoad of Refugees Reported
to Have Left There Yesterday.

Instead of letting up with the approach
of the season when cold weather may be
expected the yellow fever scourge seems
70 be taking a fresh grip in Florida and
Mississippi. Health officer Drummer re-
ccived information yesterday that seven
new cases Of fever had made their appear
ance at Miami, and that IN consequence
the citizens of the town were panic strick-
en-. The report also stated that a train
load of refugees would leave Miami yes
terday afternoon or last night, bound for
Atlanta, by way Of the Plant System.
Knowing how natural it would be for
many of the refugees to drop off in the
neighborhood of Savannah, as it Is likely
that any of them have friends and ac-
quaintances in this section of the state, DR..
Drummer wired Gov. Gambler, urging that
he should have the marine hospital sur
geons, who are stationed In this section,
take charge of the train the moment It
reaches the state line, and see to ii that
no one of the refugees be allowed to leave
the train until its arrival in Atlanta. II
is not known what steps the Governor
has taken in the matter.
The Savannah quarantine inspectors
have been notified to exercise especial
pains to see that none Of the refugees
leave the train along the line of the Plant
System, or II they do, that none of them
slip into Savannah. II IL also part of DIT.
Brunners plan that the names and de-
scriptOns of all the refugees should be
obtained before they are allowed to leave
The train, in order that they can be pre-
vented from coming back this way until
a sufficient period OF time has elapsed to
assure that they have not contracted the
disease or until cold weather sets in.
Additional cases Of fever were also re-
ported yesterday at Jackson. Miss. The
unusually warm weather for this season
of the year accounts for the fact that the
fever maintains its hold upon the infected
localities.

WALL OF A TAXPAYER.
Hcnrtrending Reply to a City Treas
urcr's Last Notice.


City Treasurer Hardee received a rather
curious letter yesterday from a distressed
taxpayer, who had received his last no
tice" for a sidewalk assessment The let
ter evidently came from the heart, but ii
brought a check. II was a wall like Sun
set Cox's taxpayers tale of woe While
the like is not altogether new to the city
treasurer, it breathed a little more of the
genius of a litorateur than the common,
everyday taxpayers kick.
On the condition that the writer's name
should remain a solemn secret the city
treasurer was willing that the letter should
be published. It reads like this:
I'VE certainly breathe the breath of the
eveli spirit. 1t seems TO me that the poor
devil who owns little real estate can cry
out in the words of the negro poet who
says;
"A crust Of bread and corner 10 sleep in,
A minute to smile and ar hour to weep in
pint of JOY and a peck of trouble,
And never a laugh but the means come
double
Between the health Office the water
department and your own dear little sane
tum, one hardly knows which way to turn.
The last notice here and the last notice
there, and no redress but to call at the
captains Office and hand out your hard
earned lucre. 1 doubt very much whether
we would have so much praying Il We
thought that the requirements of that &C.
lestial region would come any ways near
the last calls that we have below, but
would say that
This old world we live in is mighty hard
to beat,
We get thorn with every rose, but-ain't
the roses sweet!
II have had no notice of any bad side
walks, neither have l had any bill of any
work done on them. l hate to be held
up without having some explanation.
Kindly say where this work was done. so
that l can half way feel that l have been
compensated for drawing the enclosed
