No Cause for Alarm.

No Cause for Alarm.
| st. Louis Starr Chronicle, Aug. Is.
Funny what fools a panic will
make out of plain, ordinary SEN
sible men and women, isn't it?
Take this yellow fever scare,
for instance. New Orleans and
some other Southern cities has
the disease. In other cities
which have escaped the pest,
grim-faced men, armed with
Winchesters. guard the railway
stations and threaten to shoot
down healthy men and women,
whose only offense is that they
may have passed through the
afflicted cities.
True. there are over a thou
sand cases in New Orleans alone,
with something like $50 deaths.
This gives q death rate of about
Is per cent. Sounds pretty
bad, doesn't it? But stop and
think q moment.
New Orleans is a city of 3OO,-
600 people. According to sta
-
tistics, there are at least $500
victims of consumption there,
and the death rate from consum-
ton is over 80 per cent. Yet
there is no panic over consump-
ton, which is contagious, while
yellow fever is not.
Typhoid fever is always more
or less prevalent. and people are
so accustomed to it that cases
are seldom reported. Yet the
death rate from typhoid is 80 per
cent.
Ever hearof a panic over ty-
phoid?
Medical science knows that
the sputum from one victim of
consumption, thrown into the
street. spread broadcast by the
wind and inhaled by pedestrians,
is enough to infiict the disease
upon thousands of healthy per-
sons. Vel we take no precau-
tions to avoid the danger.
It knows that the deadly ty-
phoid germ in q city's water
supply will infect thousands who
drink it.
It knows that the only way
yellow fever can be transmitted
is by the bite of q mosquito with
in a certain time after it has bit
ten a person already suffering
from the disease.
It has demonstrated that the
mosquito can be exterminated,
and in the meantime it is.a sim
pie thing to prevent being bitten
by one.
The conclusion is apparent.
Exterminate the mosquito and
keep cool. There is no sane rea-
son for the slightest fear of yell
low fever, and a panic is a child
.ish superstition unworthy of
twentieth century men and wo-

PoLLARp's STATEMENT.

Mr. Byrd was followed by At
torney o, H. Pollard for the de-
tense. He said he was astounded
at the remarkable statement made
by the prominent attorney for the
Commonwealth and that he regret
ted he had risked his reputation
upon a statement made which con-
tanned nothing but slot of rot"
MANY of the things Mr.. Byrd stat
ed he would prove" said MIR. Pol
lard, "are incompetent and will not
be permitted to be proved by the
court. OF the sixty witnesses who
are summoned by the Common
wealth, not more than twenty will
testify, and these will not say one
word tending to convict the defend
ant of this crime. Nearly all of
them are liars and purjurers and
are here to attempt to swear away
the life of Will Britton.
Mr.. Pc lard referred to the in
vestigation of this case by the
Breathitt county grand jury, and
that no indictment was found
against Britton. He charged that
Mr.. Byrd mysteriously came u
Lexington with number of wit
nesses and fooled Fayette
county grand jury into finding an
Indictment against Britton. The
proof in the case will show that al
the time of the shooting Britton
was in the Office Of the Master Com.
missioner in the Court House anc
had been in that Office for some
time before the shooting.

The proof will show that Cock

o'clock in the morning of the day
upon which he was assassinated.
He had been away from Jackson
and had come back to get his trunk
and make his home elsewhere. The
day Cockrill arrivid Britton was
at the home of Ebert Hargis, and
that Ebert Hargis went there for
Britton and he and Britton left
together aud went to jackson
About ten minutes before the muir
der Ebert Hargis, Curtis Jett, and
Will Britton were seen going up
the rear steps leading to the upper
story of the Court House. Britton
was seen to leave the Court House

store and then return to the Court
House. He was not seen to leave
the Court House until after the
shooting.
Witnesses will testify, said he.
that at least three rifles were ex-
tending from the windows of the
Court House and we're fred in the
direction of Cockrill, who fell at
