QUARANTINE IN GEORGIA
THE EXPERIENCE OF A THAV
ELiEIi FROM SAVANNAH.
Some of the Humorous Aspects of the
Enforcement of the Regulations—
Many Towns Where it is Easy to
Give the Inspectors the Slip—Some
T.ps for Savannah.
Albany, Ga., Sept. 27.—The object of
t >is article is to point out some of the weak
spots in the different quarantines, and inci
dentally to preserve some of the humorous
features of the situation.
Leaving Savannah for a trip to Albany,
via Savannah,Florida and Western railway,
•wo encounter the first quarantine at Jesup.
Little evidenceof it is seen, however, by the
outward traveler from Savannah, and there
is no trouble in getting out at thut point.
Blnckshear is the next point where a quar
antine is in force, and the quarantine there
is very mild and inoffensive, and not calcu
lated to trouble any one disposed to do any
dodging. The good people of Blackshear
do not seem to bo alarmed at the prospect
of yellow jack invading their pretty little
town. Tlie Ballantyue episode did
not disturb them very greatly. It
is true that Savannah and other
joints promptly quarantined against them,
and for a time Blackshear was nominally
shut out from the world. I sny nominally,
because the said quar ntlne was by no
means effective or complete. It now ap
pears that while no trains were allowed to
stop there, and no mails were taken from
there for several days, yet the Blackshear
flolks managed to ‘‘worry through” it all
very successfully. Every morning during
the quarantine messengers were sent up t<i
Exeter, five miles distant, in the direction of
Wayoross, and all letters were posted there.
The postmaster there was accommodating,
and generously handled their mail matter
without any fumigation or imposing re
strictions, whatever.
All persons desiring to take the train sim
ply rode down to Patterson, nine miles be
low, and got on board the cars there. Ti e
town livery stable did a thriving business
for several days.
AT WAYOROSS.
At Waycross, the "gateway to Florida,”
the quarantine is strict, but not quite os
strict as it was a month ago, just after the
fever broke out. On two occasions lately
the writer has visited Waycross and left the
cars without being called upon to show any
papers.
A gentleman in Blackshear states that, a
few days ago, p ey expelled a peddler (from
Florida) who had gotten into that town,
and who had no papers which were satis
factory. Before going, he admitted that
he had gotten into Brunswick the week
before, but was duly shown outside the
limits by the officers. He tlieu went to
Waycross, got In all right, and remained
two days, during which time no one called
on him to show his papers. He then went
to Blackshear, with the result stated.
Dupont, thirty-four miles above Way
cross, lias no quarantine. As the cars roil
into the beautiful town of Valdosta the
conductor and brakemen lock the doors of
the coaches until the train comes to a full
stop. Then the doors at one end are un
locked, and the passengers for Valdosta are
confronted by the marshal, who examines
the certificates and lets them out one at a
time, until all have made their exit. He
then retires from the scene, and the out
going passengers board toe train and secure
tlidfr seats. The car doors are left open and
unlock and, and too passengers (for other
points) are at liberty to walk out and take
a liew of tbo town. There isn’t much
trouble in running the block at Valdosta.
from certain observations taken by the
wiit r, all thut the quarantine "dodger”
has to do at certain towns is to remain
qiietly in his seat until tho “inspection” is
ovp' at tho front of the car, and the quar
anlne officials have “dispersed peaceably to
thetr homo-,” then just as the train is about
to Bove otf come out quie’ly and naturally
anostep to the ground, with an air of sur
prise, as though he had just discovered that
that aas his station.
Quit man, seventeen miles above Valdosta,
has a, similar quarantine in force. From
what I have heard, however, Quitman has
tnuch mo e reas .11 to put a quarantine on
some of the public roads leading into that
town from Florida, tne line of which state is
only a few miles distant. It is in that
directi' n that the danger lies, and several
instances liuve occurred since the epidemic
broke out where refugees have come int >
Quitman across the country in private con
veyances, finding no trouble in securing ac
cess to the town. It is well enough to
watch the trains, but tho couutrv roads —
the interstate avenues—should lie looked
after also.
At Huston we find the citizens alive to the
situation, and (as at Quitman) their quar
antine officials watch the trains like hawks
and pounce upon any one who shows any
disposition to place a foot on terra firma
there. Boston is in the same danger a-
Quitman, viz.: From refugees coming across
the country from Florida—the state line be
ing very near the town.
The train now approaches Thomasville.
Here we encounter the strictest quarantine
in Georgia. For the Thomasville quaran
tine may fairly be stated as a "quarantine
with horns on it.”
AT THOMASVILLE.
The Thomasville official hoards the trains
coming from Savannah and Way cross at
the 198 mile-post, two miles below the city.
Every passenger is required to exhibit his
or her health certificate, and (I may add)
the certificates are closely examined, and if
not exactly “regular.” or if there is the
least reason to susp ■ct that that the passen
ger has come from or been in Florida, he is
politely, but firmly, toM by the inspector
that he will not be allowed to get out of
the cars at Thonissville, but must go on
through. This rule is strictly enforced,
and the cars are kept closely guarded
when the train arrives at the city. Even
the resident* o"f Thomasville are subjected
to a rigid inspection when they return to
th.'ir homes front trips out of town, and
several of them have had to serve out a
“fifteen days’sentence” at the quarantine
stations before being allowed to re-enter the
city.
Not content with watching the railroad
trains, the Thomasville authorities have
placed a shotgun patrol on the roads lead
ing into the city from Florida. A good
uany refugees have been turned back on
these roads, who otherwise would have got
ten into the city aud perhaps brought the
fever. As an additional precaution, Thorn
m vilie has detectives employed who watch
the streets and keep a surveillance on tbo
hotels and the depot grounds, and occa
sionally n “suspect’’ is walked out to the
city limits and told to “go hence.” The
city council has voted ample funds, and the
quarantine there will not be relaxed until
Jack frost comes.
We find a quarantine in force at Camilla,
hud as intending passengers for that point
step to the ground, they are asked to make
a showing. A great many people got into
towns which have a quarantine in force by
getting the conductoi s to vouch for them,
i he conductor tells the inspector that "this
or that man got on at and the in
spector says, “Well, I guess that, is ail
right," and the traveler gets oIT, rejoicing.
*t is a question whether such a “certificate
I eulth" us that Is a safe one on which to
piiss a person into a town, which is guarding
against yellow fever.
AT ALBANY.
Finally, we arrive at Albany, or rather
w " arrive just at he quaranstue station,
at Ui Hvauna!i, Florida aud Western and
Brunswick and Western junction, across
the Flint river. Here a heluieted guardian
°t the city’s |>eace boards tbo train and
jnnkeg an inspection of the passenger*. Tne
h p ctioo is not a very rigid one, or at least
’he writer has not found it so. On the last
s'* ■ occasions I have visit*! Albany, once
jn Mopping l neve and the other in going
ttrougn to Smithvilie, i wus not asked to
sgiy papers there, and the iuspootur is
•stranger to mo, too. A drummer, who
goes there occasion! y, and who (bv the
way) travels in Flo.' ja—in (act having
recently nome from down ther ■ —remarked
a few days ago, as the train approached
Albany, "I’m ail right, there, you know,
because they all know me up there. I don’t
have to show any papers.” Sure enough,
the inspect or slapped the drummer jocularly
on the shoulder, and said, as be passed him
by in the aisle of the car: “Look here,
wuat’re you doing Ivaek here?” Then he
tackled the next passenger, and gravely in
formed him he would not be allowed to get
out of the car when they reached the
station, but must keep his seat, us that was
the rule.
A freight train on the Savannah, Florida
and Western railway rolled into Albany
one night recently with five passengers in
the passenger e ach attached. A quaran
tine officer met the train across the river
and asked tho conductor: "What Uuvc you
got this time!” "Only five,” said the ticket
puncher. “Are they nil right?” asked the
health guardian. "Yes,” replied our con
ductor, "all correct.” “Well, you can go
ahead.” was the answer. The lantern of tiie
conductor waved forth and the long train
m ived into tho Artesian City, and the quar
anti o officer sought shelter from the rain,
which was pouring down at the time.
Coming into Albany from tho direction
of Macon a few nights ago, the Southwest
ern train stopped about a mile outside the
city, and an inspector boarded the cars. He
came into the first class coach and pounced
upon the first passenger at the front of the
car, and made a close examination of his
papers. Finally, he seemed satisfied, after
asking several questions, then he glanced
over the car, and without asking another
passenger for a certificate he left the car,
and that was the last seen of him.
AT MACON.
A word or two as to the Macon quaran
tine. The writer’s experience with that has
not impressed him with its efficiency. For
instance, the Macon health officers board
the incoming "through" trains on the South
western railroad and examine your health
certificate, or, if you have none, require
you to fill out and sign a kind of patent,
self-acting, each-one-warranted certificate
or affidavit, or application for a henlth
policy, it is a knotty question which. But
on the local train from Albany, arriving at
Macon at 10:15 a. m., I found no inspector
at all, so there was a free and unobstructed
entrance to the Central City by that train,
anyway.
"the Macon inspectors travel on all the
different through trains entering the city
from tho Central and Southwestern and
East Tennessee roads, and they have a bad
habit of rudely arousing sleeping passengers
iu the dead hours of the night and demand
ing their certificates or thrusting one of the
aforesaid "affidavits” at them to sign. A
great deal of righteous indignatii n has been
aroused among travelers by this sort of
thing, and it must be said that it is equally
ridiculous and unnecessary to impose these
conditions upon passengere holding through
tickets and going on to points beyond
Macon.
POINTERS FOR SAVANNAH.
There is one point which the writer wishes
to call attention to, which the health board
of Savannah would do well to look into and
consider the advisability of making a
change therein. And that is: the policy of
keeping inspectors at Waycross and Jesup,
and also traveling insiiectors on the Central
railroad, between Milieu and Savannah. A
large expense is being incurred thereby,
and there are man v observant people who
will coincide with mo in saying
that this outside quarintine is practically
valueless to your city. It is a quarantine
“at long range,” which, like shooting birds
from a distance, misses oftener than it hits
the mark. The best and only effective
quarantine for Savannah to maintain at
tills perilous time is a oordon around the
city. Let the train inspections be made at
Southover junction and the Central railroad
crossing, and all this outside quarantine
expense can be saved. The Waycross in
spector for Savannah goes through the
trains and examines the health certificates
of those holding tieki .to Savannah onlv.
Passengers who say t hey are not going to
Savannah he does not interfere with in any
way. To Savannah-bound travelers, whose
certificates are satisfactory, be issues a
"pass,” which is duly recognized at Jesup
and Southover junction, without further
exanimate n of the holder’s papers at those
points. At Jesup the same thing is done by
the Savannah inspector there.
Now paraes getting on at stations be
tween Jesup and Savannah have to show
their certificates at Southover junction,
and those who have come through Way
cross and Jesup give up their "passes,” and
thus the inspection is completed. As every
train has to pass inspection at Southover
junction anyhow, whv cannot the insjioclors
there pass on the health certificates of
through passengers os well as local passen
gers ? Furthermore, the two inspectors
mentioned do not question or examine any
one on the trains who tells them he or she
is not going to Savannah. There is tho
point”. For of course any refugee
from inferred points has more sente now
than to attempt to get into Savannan on a
through ticket. The small stations are se
lected as their destinations —between Way
cross and Savannah —and from there they
plan to reach the city. Therefore it would
seem conclusive that the quarantine at the
city limits mu6t be made effective, or Sa
vannah is in great danger. Likewise with
the traveling inspectors on the Central road.
Their examinations of jiassengers’ healtn
certificates on board the oars is no more
effective than a like examination made by
an official at the quarantine station at the
crowing would be, and the extra expense
could be saved to the city.
It is now not more than a month or six
weeks to frost, when the danger will be at
an end. Savannah has escaped thus far.
Now let her make sure by drawing in her
"long-range quarantine” and establishing a
cordon around the city. T.
WHEN IS A MAN TOO OLD TO
MARBY?
Apparently It ie Never Too Late to
Mend—Some Examples.
From the London Echo.
“When is a man too old to marry?” is
quite os interesting ns the question, “When
is a girl too young f” I must leave to
physiologists to discuss bow far the chauces
of life are shortened when December weds
May, and expects in May anything more
than a nurse, though, in passing, I may ob
serve that I have noticed several such mar
riages in which the funeral followed sus
piciously close to the wedding. Without
going back to the time when “Jared lived a
hundred and sixty and two yearsand begat
Enoch,” there are several ins,Alices on
record of modern patriarchs who iiecame
proud and happy fathers at the time when
they should be thinking about shuffling off
this mortal coil.
There was that stout Salopian, Old I’arr,
for example, who married at 80, ami hail to
do peuanoe in Aldorbury church for an in
trigue with Catherine Milton, when he was
a sprightly masher of 10ft summers. If Lord
Lyttleton is to be believed I'arr had a rival
in tbeValoof Festiniog, in the person of
an old Welsh farmer, who, whou ho died,
had 800 lineal descendants, and whoso
youngest son was Ml years youngor than his
eldest. I fancy this man must have been of
the same family os a certain Alderman
Hookes of Conwav, who is described in hi*
epitaph as the forty-first child of bis father,
and himself the father of twenty-seven
children. Happily for themsolves, theso
people lived long before the days of Dr.
Drvsdale. ,
Mv own impression is that the v\ elsh
border is the paradise of old men, the grand
old man being only the most conspicuous
among many. Some years baok I spent a
Sunday in the very next parish to Hawar
ilen I dined with a middle-aged man,
whose sons were fast growing to manhood,
and then walked over to his father’s house
to take tea. The voiwrablo old gentleman,
who wore a headgear something like Oliver
Goldsmith’*, ssi nursing an Infant 2 or 8
years old on his knee. “Is that your
youngest?" I asked of my middle-aged
friend. “Oh, dear, no,” he replied; “that is
my little brother.”
THE MORNING NEWS: FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 28, 1688.
A LOVE STORY IN A PULPIT.
Pastor Buese Tells His Flock How He
Won a Baroness.
I\om the -Veil) York World.
A large c uigregation assembled Sunday
morning m St. Luke’s German Lutheran
church, at No. 233 West Forty-second street,
to welcome back the pastor, the Rev. Wil
liam Busse, and his bride, nee Baroness
Agnes von Harlessem, of Hildesheim, who
returned from Germany Wednesday on the
Fulda. Every seat was occupied, and
bright faces told of the love which the mem
bers of St. Luke’s have for their pastor.
When the Rev. Mr. Busse -ailed from here
three months ago he left behind him, in the
care of friends, four motherless children.
He met his second wife in Hildesheim, a
city near Hanover. It was a case of love at
first sight.
The baroness was In church yesterday
morning, and was accompanied by the four
children of her husoaud—a pretty young
lady of 17, a bright boy of 12 and two tittle
daugi ters of '.I ami 7. The children seemed
well pleased with the recent acquisition to
their father’s household. Mrs. liusse is a
handsome young woman of about 28 years
and st tely carriage. She was dressed
in a black satin dress, trimmed with black
lace, a jet wrap covered her shoulders, and
she wore a black lace bonnet. She comes
from the aristocratic old German family of
the Hurlessems of Hildesheim, and is the
second daughter of Herr von Harlessen,
chief counsellor of justice in Hildesheim,
and a first cousin of the well known Count
Rudolph von Bennigseu. chief president of
the former kingdom of Hanover, and an in
timate friend of Prince Bismarck. The
barons of Harlessem are wealthy, and up to
the time of the outbreak of the thirty-year
war owned nearly all the small villages and
towns in the immediate vicinity of Hildes
heim. It was here the Rev. Mr. Busse was
a student at the Royal college previous to
entering the University ot Goettingen,
w here tie was graduated.
Mr. Basse preached in German, and bis
address ws more of a narrative of what ho
hail done abroad t an an orthodox sermon.
When ho indicated hi; pur, ose in the
cordial words with which he formally
greeted his congregation every one was on
tse (jui vice, and many tunfei to glance nt
Mrs. liusse, whose face turned a bright
scarlet. All were anxious to hear from the
pastor’s lips how lie had won his titled
bride.
"It. was my Intention,” said the minister,
"to return homo Aug. 22 in the same ship
which had taken me away from here, but
the good Lord, who rules above us, had de
cided otherwise. He hnd introduced other
ways by giving me a companion through
life. You have hoard about it already, but
I want to correct many misrepresentations
which have been made in regard to my
wife's fortune.
*‘l want to tell you that I have not been
hunting after earthly riches, but I have
found a good and loving wife, who is a de
scendant i t one of the most highly respected
families in Geimauy, whose ancestors can
lie traced back to tho eighth and ninth cen
turies. May the good Lord, who has been
so exceedingly kind to me, watch over us.
He has given me a wife who will be my
true companion through life, who will be a
good aud .oving mother to iny children.”
There were many moist eves as the Rev.
Busse spoke of his bride as the good house
wife and mother for his children, and the
baroness’ blushing cheeks were buthed in
tears while the youngest daughter, who sat
next to her new mamma, clung closely to
her. The preacher then proceeded with his
sermon.
Eat With Comfort and be Happy.
It is by no means uncertain, but, on the con
trary, a well ascertained fact, that upon the
well being of man’s stomach depends that mod
icum of happiness which is vouchsafed to him
in this wond. Dyspepsia, the foe of ail others
to the stomach's tranquillity, and most to be
dreaded, is a complaint to tue preliminary re
lief ami eventual cure of which Hostotter’s
Stomach Bitters is specially adapted. It ena
hies those who nse it with a reasonable degree
of persistence to eat it with a relish, because it
imparts a healthful appetite; to digest with
ease, liecause It strengthens the stomai-n; and
to assimilate tho food which is eaten und di
gested. thus benefiting health, promoting tie-h
and sustaining the exercise of tne physical and
mental faculties. It moreover facilitates the
secretion of hea thy bile, actuates without dis
comfort the habit of body and tends, when
taken upon retiring, to priduce healthy slum
ber. Malaria is Conquered by it.
The Best Time to Buy Valuables.
ThH is the dull season of the year. This
informatiOE is not exclusive or from inspi
ration. Trade is pretty well os far as it
goes—but it uoemV go far. The purchasing
power of a dollar now is something surpris
ing, simply because there are more dollars
than trade. Iu a word, we are now Inclined
to give a very large dollar’s worth for lUO
sent* just to keep things moving. Within
tho past few months wo have added to our
stock hi various wavs, new ideas, new con
ceits. new trickr, and quips in jewelry, and
so on. Wo’ve got to keep up, you know,
with the strides of inventive and artistic
excellence. Our stock is worth looking
over, and, ns intimated, we will sell very
close to move some of it. This is a good
time to renew household articles. Solid
Bilver tab!* ware, superb plated ware,
ornamental goods. For personal use or
adornment we offer a line par excellence c!
Ladies' i.:ie Gold, Silver and Diamond
Jewelry, Ladies’ Watches, Chains and
Charms, Gent’s h atches and Jewelry, etc.
All of these articles can be bought cheaper
now than when trade gets brisker. Some
holy will get married next fall—buy the
presents you intend to give now. They
will keep, aud you will save money.
