PENSACOLA SITUATION
BULLETIN POSTED BY THE STATE
 HEALTH OFFICER.
Information shows Total Yellow reve, Cases, A, Deaths, ey Number New Under Treatment, 3y Cases
 Discharged, 32.

Pensacola, Fla, Sept. 20.--(speciaI, I-Yielding to public clamor more than anything else, Dr. Joseph Y. Porter, the State Health ohicer. for the first bulletin of the situation last night This was a resume of the situation and was as follows:
 Total cases reported. A.
 Total number deaths, 9.
 Number under treatment, 8.
 Number cases discharged, 32.
 This bulletin was signed by the State Health ofncer, and its being posted Is probably the result of a discussion which sprang from the fact that the State Health Officer for some reason disciaimed the responsibility for the bulletins posted through the courtesy of Mayor Bliss for the information of the public. These bulletins, signed by the mayor and obtained directly from the ofice of the health officer. were treated as official statements of the situation until Dr. Porter intimated that Mayor Bliss had "butted in" and that the notices as posted did not re- ceive the endorstment of the health board, That statement made the Pen- sacola public dubious and called forth a statement from the mayor at great length, which was published today and which gave his position in the mat ter.
 When the statement came that pull letins did not receive the endorsement of the health board, 1t got some people to wondering just what was the truth of the situation, and these made suon an uproar, both through the public press and on the stret. that It s thought It's influence reached the state Health Offcer and the resume was posted
 An editorial appeared in an after noon paper yesterday In which among other things the statement was maoe that not one-han of the people of Pen sacola really believed that yellow tever existed in the city. The article re- ceived popular endorsement.
 The situation today is tranquil ex- cent the differences existing between the oity's chief executive and the state Health onicer. The mayor IS enueavo. inc to keep faith with the public, ana has 50 far kept his promise. reiterating in his statement to the ,ni" pubic sd So 'ses ao morning that ne w,i .ouSidenee in what he aaVS,

stitution s E :, = 5"* .s -. ~ sz
The work had begun in very modest way,
by Rev. N. R. zHegneas, who 10 now, retired
from the ministry. He had found three chill;
dren Of German parentage destitute, without
/. q mother and abandoned by the father. The
deplorable condition of these children 10 aT,-
pealed to this pastor and his wife that they
resolved to assume the work Of providing
them home. He solicited aid in his travels
and was successful especially in Cottonwood
and Redwood counties in awakening some
interest for building home where these and
similar children might be cared for. "a band
of noble women of that neighborhood made
the first organized effort. Later at m ass
meeting a legal organization was Effected,
and Rev. Hegness was authorized to ssolicit
funds. for the project, This pastor 5t soon
dropped from the work. and Rev. Marten.
son, as the pastor at Lamberton was urged
to take up the work Funds were raised SO
that modest little home could be built on q
site previously acquired. On Nov. 20, seven
years ago, the first home was dedicated, !, and
a month later, Sister Matilda, from the
Deaconess Home at Minneapolis, took charge
of the home, the first inmates of which were
the three children spoken ofbefore. The num-
ber gradually increased, until the home be-
came inadequate to room the little ones.
The question Of more room then came sup.
The advantages of having the home in the
country or near a larger village were de:
bated. 1t was finally decided to buy q farm,
which would not only give employment to
the larger children, but wonld contribute TO
the mainren ance of the institution. Rev: j.
Mattson, who with Rev, Z. 20. Larson Had
been member of the Beard Of NJ anaRcrs
from the first, W as called to solicit funds for
the building. The location at Eagle Lake
was decided upon, and the building just
erected has been built. The property as It

After an illness of about year and
half, nine months of which she was
confined to her bed a great part at the
time, Mrs. Ida c. P. Miller, wife 81 II.
E. Miller. passed to her eternal rest
last Thursday afternoon at four
O'Clock at her home on Fifth street.
The deceased had been great suf-
ferer during her long illness, but bore
all with that patience which was so
CHARACTERISTIC of her. q. The case was
one which bafflea all treatment by
skilled ply sicians, the patient having
been attended by not only local doc
tors but also specialists from out Of
town points. All that medical or sur
gical aid could do had been done to
afford relief for the patient sufferer.
The case was diagnosed by Q st. Paul
physician as tumor of the brain. Ger
ebral thrombosis is given. by local
physician as the immediate cause of
death The illness had effected the
patient to the extent that for the; last
two months she:was totally blind and
also suffered partial paraly ysis Of the
right side. She was conscious to the
last and the end came peacefully. !.
Mrs. Miller was born in Sweden in
1853, being AZ years, 8 months and I
days of age at the time of death. She
came to America at the age of IA.
Her maiden name was Ida c.. Pierce
and she was married to Mr.. Miller
Dec 81, 1899, at Richland, Rice coun-
ty. Previous to their removal to Will
mar they conducted the Riverside ho-
tel at Montevideo, which they success
fully managed for several years.
They have made their home in this
city since last January, the deceased
assisting her husband in the manage
ment of the Great Northern eating
house until her health became such
that she was obliged to give up all
work. 1g +. .: 4..~ ..<~25 4 4 ,z':s..s : 80
Being taken i'll shortly after her ar

remain at home large share OF the

the high esteem and respect OF every
