All eyes were turned to the gallery,
where the figure OF small, milk-and-

M. Stanley, formerly of North Dakota,
died yesterday at his plantation home
on Bayou Baratia as result of a re-
lapse from yellow fever, his illness ex-
tending over the last two weeks. DR..
Stanley came here with his family
about three years ago from the North
west. When the fever appeared in
New Orleans he refused to leave, and
when it developed in Bayou Baratia
he volunteered his services to assist in
stamping it out. IIe placed his steam
launch at the disposal of the authori-
ties and for days and nights visited
and ministered to the sick. Several
weeks ago he himself was stricken
and was brought to the city and taken
to the emergency hospital. He re-
NAMED there until he believed himself
cured, and Immediately returned to the
bayou to resume his work. Exposure
and the fact that he had ventured out
too soon resulted in a fresh attack of
illness, and physicians and two trained
nurses lave been in attendance on
him. Daat%. came yesterday.
