New Orleans Fever Situation.

Cool weather had a depressing effect
on the yellow fever situation in New
Orleans through Sunday and Monday,
though the Federal authorities seem to
nave a firm grip on conditions. This is
the period which is usually the most
critical in fever epidemics, but there is
no indication that those in charge will
lose control. The medical forces are
succeeding well in the treatment of
cases reported promptly and where the
patients follow the advice of the doctors.
The majority of the deaths appear to
be confined to the foreign population.
The whole number of deaths up to
Monday night, 260; total number of
cases, 1.788.

The management of the Laurens Cot

Course for this Fall and Winter, the at
fractions to be given in the Auditorium
OF the Laurens Cotton Mill School build
ing. The Course is primarily for the ben
eft of the Mill village, but the ~co-opera-
ton of the city and surrounding county
is desired and solicited.
The Course will be equal to any pre-
Viously given in Laurens and the price
of Season tickets will be 5000 instead
of $500 as heretofore for two tickets.
The price is given thus low for the our
pose of putting the Course within the
reach OF a greater number of persons
and the additional number of sales is
expected to make up for the difference

A meeting of the committee recently
appointed to look after the work of Sc
curing signatures to the petitions for
an election on ''the dispensary" or mo
d~ispensary'' question, was held in the
office of the Clerk of Court yesterday

number was reported at yesterdays
meeting, and it is understood that two
of the townships were not represented
or reported. Another meeting will be
called in the mean future at which time
the lists will probably be completed and
turned ver to the County Supervisor.

SERIOUS LOSS BY FIRE.
Barn OF J. l.. Milan was Burned on Last
Sunday Night.

Last Sunday night between nine and
ten O'Clock the barn and stables of Mr..
j.. l.. Milan, a farmer residing five
miles south east of the city, were COM
pletely destroyed by fire, together with
three mules, one cow, four fine hogs
and a quantity of fodder and other pro-
vender. Mr.. Milan estimates his loss
at $1,000 to $1,000 IN which there is
500 insurance in the Carolina Mutual
Insurance company of Spartanburg.
The fire had made considerable head
way when discovered by Mr.. Milan,
too far to be eXtinguished by the means
at his disposal, and his efforts were di-
rected to saving his stock and cattle in
which attempt he was seriously burned
about his face, neck and hands. His
horse and six head of cattle were thus
The Laurens advertiser. (Laurens, S.C.) 1885-1973, 1905-08-30

rescued before he was forced to retreat.
The fire appears to have started up
among some hay and fodder near one
of the windows in the second story of
the barn and Mr.. Milan is strongly of
the opinion that in was the work of an
~incendiary.
