City of Savannah, Mayor’s Office,
Savannah, Ga, August 81, 1898.—To
His Excellenoy W. J. Nortben, Gov
ernor State of Georgia, Atlantn, Ga.,
Dear Sir: You have no doubt heard
of the prevalence of yellow fever at
Brunswick, Ga., the United States
surgeon in Charge of the quarantine
station at that port having died of
yellow fever at 5 o’clock p. m, yester
day. 1 beg to say that 1 have been
officially Informed of further oases of
yellow fever In Brunswick to-day.
have advice from the Mayor of Britlis-
vflok to the ell’ent that lie has advised
all oitlzens who can leave Brunswick
to go at once. It seems to me thqt
from this and for other reasons yel
low fever Is bound to become epidemic
at • Brunswick. Such being the
«ase, it is of the most vital Importance
to the Stale Of Georgia, and especially
to this section of the State, that a
camp for detention should be estab
lished at the inns’, convenient place,
hoth on the line of the Brunswick and
Wayoross railway, between Brutis-
wlok and Wayeross, and on the Kast
Tennessee, Virginia ami Georgia rail
way, at some convenient place be
tween Jesup and Brunswick. I, there
fore, write to urge upon you to estab
lish these camps or stations
for the purposu of detention
for refugees fleeing from Bruns
wick and yellow fever, so that they
may be held there at least until the
perlbd of incubation has passed. If
this is not done, we may expect to
have yellow fever scattered through
out the State of Georgia; and 1 most
urgently request that, if It is not with
in your power to establish suoh sta
tions, you will urge upon Surgeon
General Wyman, of Washington, the
necessity and Importance of the es
tablishment of eqnli stations. 1 am
| ’ . very glad to be able to inform you that

e sanitary condition of our olty and
surroundings was never better; we
•- have no fear of yellow fyver here, nn-
less It aliould be brought In from
Brunswick or soino other Infected
place, We are doing our utmost In
the way of inspection and quarantine
work, and we are trying to keop out
refugees from Infected plaoes; but, In
spite'of all we can do, they will slip
In occasionally. If these camps of de
tention are established where the peo
ple aan remain for the proper length
■of time, then we would be glad to ahel
ter them here, when they oould rea
amiably be supposed to bo free from
infection; but we certainly do not In

stances.
Hoping tins will have your most
careful and prompt alteutlon, I am,
Very ReBpeotfully Yours,

not do anything himself, but had for

Here is the letter to the Surgeon
<1006081
State of Georgia, Exeoutivc Depart,
meat, Atlanta, Ga, August 22, 1898.—
Hon. Walter Wyman. Surgeon Gen.
oral, Washington, D. C.—Dear Sir:
beg to hand to you herewith a letter
from the mayor of Savannah, Ga.
You ask me, writes “Cousin Madge”
In London Truth, what are now the
regulation width and style of fashion
able skirts. They are greatly various
Id oharacter. The tailor-made dresses
measure about four yards or four-and-
a half round the hem, but elaborate
gowns for afternoon or evening wear
are much wider. One is always Bure
to see the latest fashions at X—’s, so I
went there to see for myself wlrnt the
new skirts are like before answering
your question. I saw sperfeotly love
ly evening dress In white satin, the
skirt very wide round the feet where
it stood out in bold pleats, but fitting
close to the figure on the hips. The
bodice was covered with ncoordion.
pleated rose-pink chiffon, and over the
skirt the same soft fabric fell In van
dykes with the loveliest effect, the
killings falling open nnd thus making
the tender’tone of pink look paler
still »t the edges. The sleeves were
out like large Illy petals In whllesatln
with the pleated pink chiffon falling
over them. A band of white satin
formed a belt, being fastened with
rosette at either side, Low on the
skirt In front were two rosettes, white
and pink. The bodice was, finished
round the top with a little beautiful
real lace In a warm tone of oream color
turned baok from the shoulders. A
group of shaded pink roses was fast
ened at the left. The whole dress was
just like a flower.
A BBOOMING BUDICB.
Another evening gown was in black
satin, with a very full aklrt, the
breadths being out In a new way, so
that they turned out 111 points abou’
the feet. The bodice was all jet and
cream-tinted Isoe. a oorselet of the
former ending iu a point at the back,
while in front it was slightly opened
up toward tlio waist. The rest wns
all laoe, except that the short sleeves
were oomposed of soveral double frills
of blank ohlffon, with a deep fall of the
oreamy laoe over them. At the back
this lace was on down to the waist In
a cascade. You cannot Imagine what
a becoming bodloe tills was. A little
cluster of shaded pink and red geran
turns with velvet petals : was fastened
In the front.
a nooicK nob a mm..
A sweetly pretty low bodloe for
girl, to be worn with a pink silk skirt,
covered with pink lisse and with three
kiltlngs of the latter round the hips,
was In. pink satin, with pink lisse
gathered over it 111 be-be fashion
Frills of pink lisse and of cream trim
ined It rt und the shoulders, and the
sleeves consisted of the same, with
bow of blaok velvet above them,
oluster of blaok blow-aways, with
few .pray.' of white jessamine, wns
fastened on the bodice. A band of
blaok velvet was fastened at the waist
with a pretty paste buokle.
A DRXSS NOR A MATRON.
Fora matron a silk dress in a tone
of nuberglnp had been designed, the
skirt trimmed with a very
deep flounce pleated on and made
with two rows of cream-colored
guipure, under wliloli was a band
of pale heliotrope silk, which showed
through the meshes of the laoe. Above
the flounce and hiding its point
junotion with the skirt, was a row
jet embroidery in a leaf design. The
bodloe was rather elaborately
ranged, with full pieces of the auber.
glne standing out above r full trim
mlng in frunt.
Escaped Linn Cat) CM by an Elephant.
An exciting and remarkable econo oc
curred yeeterduy at Barnsley, where
Day’s menagerie is being exhibited.
The manager states thut about 4 o'clock
Bartlett, the keeper, accidentally left the
door of a cage containing young lions un-
fastenod. Bartlett was afterward sur
prised to son one of tlio lions loose. Hap
pily no spectators were In the show at
the time. The keeper immediately armed
himself and sent for uid. Blank car
tridges were Bred to keop the lion at buy.
Luckily, it came within reach of a power
ful elephant named Jumbo II, who was
fenced off by means of ropes and stakes
in one corner of the show. The elephant
seized the lion with his trunk round the
body, nnd placing his foot npon him
held him down. The keepers, who had
secured ropes, noosed them, and putting
them on the lion’s legs secured and
drugged him into the cage.—Westmin

no appnrcut reason why this should not
