NEW ORLEANS, Aug. 11.-With the
death rate remaining lower Than in
previous v~isitations of yellow fever the
feeling among health officers and the
laity continued hopeful. Although the
present visitation of yellow fever has
been prevalent long enough to assume
a virulent type, the fever is apparently
less malignant than it was when 1t
first appeared. Doctors now believe
that If the first cases had been taken
hold of at once and subjected to prop
er treatment the total deaths would
have been much smaller than has been
now recorded. For the past twenty

FOUGHT v DAYS.
Insane. Man at stratford Shoals Tried
In Vain to Destroy Its Light.


NEW YORK, Aug. 1I.-Stratford
/ hoals light and perhaps the big Long
| Stand sound steamers which are guild
I a by it were saved last week through
the heroic struggle which the keeper
of the light, Merrill Hulse, made for
seven days against an insane man ma
rooned alone with the keeper and de-
termined to e~xtinguish the light.
The mailman was Hulse's brother
keeper, julius Coster, whoywent crazy
and tried to destroy his light. In at
tempts to get at the light Coster want
ed to kill Hulse.
The lighthouse is situated on Long
Island, midway between Bridgeport
and Port Jefferson.
Hulse had nc warning that he WAS
living with an insane man until one
day Coster attacked him with a weap-
on made Of a razor dashed to the end
of a long pole. The keeper overpowered
Coster and repeatedly afterward dur,
ing the first two days of his compan-'
ions madness was forced to fight for
his own life. Then Coster's mania took
a new turn, and n afternoon Hulse
found him with a hammer and chisel
trying to cut away the walls of the
lighthouse.
That night the light suddenly stopped
revolving and its keeper ran to the
lamp to find Coster with an AK
about to destroy the lenses. He fought
his way into the room and saved the
light, but from that time on for fully
five days, doing two mems work, the
brave keeper was forced both to guard
the lenses day and night and to fight

many times for his own life, and final
ly toward the end of this period anoth-
er burden was laid on him.
AS Coster's delirium wore off he be-
came DESTROYS of committing suicide,
so that when removed from the light
house he bore self inflicted gashes all
W. his neck, which only Hulse's faith
full watchfulness had kept from be-
coming fatal. He has becA placed in
