count of his having come from Jackson

Camp Perry and had a certificate from Dr,
Guiteras; after that lie went to Waycross
station and had his baggage ail fumigate l
and. certificate to that effect, to there could
be no -langur, and no hotel or health board
officer could properly refuse to admit him.
Sanford Journal-. The action of tho
Orange country board of health, in quaran
tining against all points out of the county,
and forbidding tho arrival of trains into
the county, is simply outrageous, as through
freights can be brought into the county
without the le -st degree of danger. Our
citizens are highly and properly indignant
about the matter, and demand a modifica
tion of the quarantine so that freight nmy
be brought into tho town and into tho
county. They do not propose to bo starved
out just yet, when thore is no cause for
such action on the part of the board. So
far as the incoming of passen
gers * is concerned, tho action of the
board meets with our approval, but pro
visions must be allowod to enter.
Orlando Iteporter: Tho board of health
has adopted a regulation prohibiting any
passenger car passing through any infected
place, or any passenger traveling by such
car, coining into this county. That regula
tion will be all right, provided it can be
enforced, but that cannot be done unless the
board sends a man to go out aud come iu on
every train leaving and coming into the
county. We are iu favor, for the next
twenty days or longer, of an ab-olute quar
antine and to allow no passenger trains to
run in or through Orange county. The
time iias arrived for prompt and decisive
measures. Orange county must not have a
case of oven sporadic fever. O ie case would
cost the c unty untold thousands of dollars
and the absolute condemnation by the
entire people of the board of health.
Orlande Reporter: The board of health
has adopted the,following regulation, a copy
of which is to be served upon every post
master in tho county: To , jiost
master . Sir—l herewith hand you
tho following order of the Orange county
board of health, which is furnished for your
information and guidance: Whereas, It is
the opinion of this board, that the introduc
tion of newspapers or other mail matter,
except letters and postal cards, from Jack
sonville, Gainesville and Tampa p-'stofllces,
is liable to c inimunieate a contagious dis
ease, viz , yellow fever, prevailing at this
time. You are hereby notifli and not to re
ceive any such moil until this order is re
scinded. By authority of the board, ,
secretary. Noe —Heo section tilts of United

FLORIDA REFUGEES.
A Sketch of Their Journey to Hender-
Bonville.
From the Henderionville (.V. C.) Time*,Sept. 20.
A train of ton coaches containing ‘2OO
Florida people, mostly from Jacksonville,
arrived in Hendersonville Thursday morn
ing at 3 :o0 o’clock after a tiresome ride cf
forty-two hours.
At Jesup a darkey, who was sent to change
the bell-cord, peeped into a coach and said:
“Gentlemen, won't some of yo’ tlx dis yer
bell-cord! I doan want 'ter get none o’ dat
yer yaller fever,” He was assured there
was no danger, but be shook his head and
walked away with a scared look, leaving
the passengers to adjust the bell-cord.
At a small place whoro the train halted
about dark, some of the refugees who wore
out of eatables tried to get some bread, but
the ]>eoplo declared they didu’thave a thing
to eat. A storekeeper close to the train was
appealed to. but he said he was out of every
thing. Said a refugee: “My God, man,
haven’t you any humanity! There is a
woman here with a lot of little children
who must havo something. Bring out some
crackers—anything. I’ll pay for them.
Finally the man brought out a sack of
crackers, put it on the ground and ran back
to his store, refusing to take ‘‘infected”
money.
The train reach'd Macon at 11:10 o’clock
p. m. and proceeded at once. Fifteen miles
from that city torpedoes on the track gave
sudden warning that danger was imminent.
A freight train just ahead of us had gone
into a bad washout and was badly broken
up. It was a narrow escape for the refugees,
for had the refugee train started ahead of
the freight a frightful accident would have
resulted.
At Griffin, Go., the people asked t-bo
refugees to stop, saving they were not
afraid of the fever, and had not quaran
tined against it. But those on the train had
given their word of honor to go on to
Hendersonville, and none got off.
It was announced ou the tram that an
“elegant spread” or a bounteous free lunch
was awaiting the refugees at Atlanta. But
the word of promise given to the ear was
broken to tlie hope. VV hen the train pulled
into the Atlanta depot, policemen gave the
refugees notice that none of them would
be allowed to leave the train. In fact, At
lanta had quarantined against thorn. And
the free lunch was also missing. Instead,
25 cents was charged for tour thin slices of
breud and two Bmail bits of meat, while
tea. coffue and milk sold at the rate of 10
cents per cup! This in Atlanta, a city that
boasts of its liberality and generosity! The
refugees were very indignant, and pro
tests! in languago emphatic and loud.
At Tryon City, N. C.,ut the foot of Tryon
mountain, the weary refugees were treated
to a feast of good things in tile way of cof
fee, sandwiches, biscuit, etc., ole., by the
kind and liberal jssiplo of Tryon, headed
by Dr. Paine and wife, Mrs. Bishop Young,
C arn McLaughlin and Mrs. Dennis, who
keeps the Tryon house, all former Jackson
ville citizens.
At H o'clock a. m. the train pulled into
Henderson viile, where big fires were blazing
in the u most frosty night air for the benefit
of the refugees. i‘|,e tires were grateful,
for the ascent up the mountain wa > a clully

A committee of Jacksonville people was

Bowden made a speech of welcome to tue

hero who came on the refugee train who is
not improved iu health, while the sick ones
are recovering.
A number of cases of slight sickness,
i developed among the refugees ou tho first
four days after their arrival here, passed
away, and the complaining oues are now
; happily well. Had they remained in Florida
another day, the probabilities are that these
! eases of indisposition would bavo been
yellow fever, which could not develop
here, in this altitude, 2,252 feet above sea
level.
To the credit of the Florida folks, bo it
said, thqy are orderly, well behaved, gen
teel, companionable people. -Orta uly,
some may be short of money, but that is no
fault of theirs, considering the total pros
tration of business in Jacksonville, the long
time many have been idle and the short
notice aud hurried preparations made for
the flight from the scourge. But none of
those people will lie allowed to suffer. The
people of ileudersonville have hearts, and
the poorest will lie treated just the same as
those in good circumstances. The citizens
of Hendersonville invited the Florida peo
ple here as an act of humanity, aud will see
that they are care 1 for.
Several meetings of the refugees have
been held at the court house, and some ani
mated discussions have taken place on vari
ous questions of interest to all. Tho matter
of quarantine was a subject for debate, as
it was not generally understood by the
refugees, soma l-elieving tuat, after coining
here, they would tie allowed to go to any
tilace not quarantined against Jacksonville,
except seaboard towns. To settle this
question, a telegram was sent to Surgeon
General Hamilton, at Camp Perry, who
replied that the refugees must stay ten days
iu Hendersonville. This settled it, anil all
willingly acquiesced in the decision.
Another discussion was with reference to
providing for and obtaining transporta!ion
for those who were here without money,
and who wished t > go to friends in other
states, or to where they could get employ
ment. Homo wanted to apply for help to
t e genoral government, others thought
the Jacksonville Auxiliary Committee the
proper place to apply for assistance, and a
committee was appointed to confer with
the latter in this connection.
When the ten days quarantine are up,
many will leave for other states, while some
have determined to remain.
RUSTIC ROMANOS.
The Crawford County Maiden Who
Went to the Spring After Water.
From the Macon (Ua.) Telegraph.
It seems that John Smith of Crawford
(John Smith, in this instance, is a bona fide
name) is a hard working, industrious farmer.
Nearly a year ago he lost his wife, and not
long ago he decided to wed again. His
choice was his sister-in-law, Miss Lizzie
Scarboro, but her father was unwilling to
give her up. She was his idol, and tie bo
stowed upon her all the wealth of a father's
affection. A few days Hgu Mr. Smith
secured the services of ’Squire Green Hollo
man, and with the license and a witness they
went to the spring not fur from Albert Scar
boro's house, and there sat down ami enjoyed
occasional draughts of the clear, cold water.
Tuev knew that it was the custom of Miss
Lizzie to go to the spring after wat r, and
tney waited patiently for the coming. They
wore finally rewarded for their patie.oe by
soeing her coining tripping down the hill
with her pail, unconscious of tho fact that
her lover was in the vicinity. Arriving at
the spring she was startled to find the party.
Mr. Smith informed bar that ho hud the
license, the ’squire’s services had been en
gaged, aud all was now ready for tying the
knot. She hesitated, but the lover’s persua
sions wore too powerful, and whan she car
ried tho pail of water back she was Mrs.
Smith.
Uncle Ira says Mr. Scarboro is a very
sen-ible man, aud when told of the marriage,
he acknowledged that lie had been outwit
ted, and then extended his congratulations.
