-Easy to Give Advice.
There are three things about which a
man knows more than his wife, yea four
things about which he will not hearken
to wisdom —when he ought to take his
umbrella, when he ought to put on dry
clothes, when he ought not to remove
his flannels and when he ought not to
go out on a steamer without an overcoat.
Thousands of people went out from Tor
onto by boat on Dominion Day, and
probably 75 per cent, of the total of
male excursionists were advised by sis
ter, mother, or wife to take overcoats.
But not 2 per cent, were persuaded. It
is a fact that it was a cold day on the
lake and that the want of heavier cloth
ing spoiled the day for hundreds. The
women were as lightly clad as the men,
aud suffered even more seriously from
the chilliness of the atmosphere. And
probably half of these shivering women
had urged their brothers or lathers or
husbands to take overcoats. It _is
usually safe to trust a woman to think
too much of the comfort of the men
around her and to neglect to provide for
ber own wants or to insure her own
pleasure. But the moral of this is that
you should very rarely go out, on the
lake without an overcoat, and that when
.the women of your household attack you
along this line you should yield like a
wise man, and then institute a rigid
counter-inquiry into the provisions the
women have made for their own comfort.
The lake has been here long enough,
and we have been here long enough to
have better sense than most of us ex
hibited on Dominion Day. —Toronto

SURGEON-GENERAL HAMILTON ISSUES AN
IMPORTANT ORDER —A TRAIN LEAVES
DIRECT FOR ATLANTA GA. —NOTES.
At a late hour on Saturday night the
Jacksonville 'Times- Union received the
lollowing telegram from General Manager
ll.nnes, of the S., F. & W. Railroad,
giving the first authentic information
with reference to the government excur
sion train: “Savannah, Ga,, September
1. —At 8:20 p. m., I received a message
from Surgeon-General Hamilton asking
mo to send a special of four cars for ref
ugees from Jacksonville to Atlanta. Bag
gage must be left at the Waycrosa'fumi
gating station. We will endeavor to
have the train ready to leave Jacksonville
about 1:30 p. m. Please give this pub
lic notice. —11. S. Haines, G. M.” As
soon as people learned this, there was
more or less bustle, especially as tele
phone messages to Waycross depot were
answered by the announcement that the
train had been made up and would
leave promptly at 1:30 p. m. Nearly
two hundred intending passengers had
booked their names with the secretary of
trade and it was expected that every one
of the four cars would be crowded full.
An impression had gained ground in
some way that, inasmuch as this train
had been heralded as a “government ex
cursion train,” under charge of the sur
geon-general, it w T ould be free to all, and
scores of people, both white and black,
were on hand two or three hours before
the departure of the train in order to take
advantage of this, aud they were all dis
appointed. There were less than forty
passengers, by actual count. Four ordi
nary coaches had been provided, and the
orders from Superintendent Fleming had
been to sell tickets to Atlanta only, the
cars to be locked, and no
one allowed to leave the train
at any point between Jacksonville
and the Georgia capital. No baggage
was received. Those who had brought
it with them, expecting that it would be
taken as far ns Waycross and there left
behind for fumigation, were doomed to
disappointment. The train orders were:
“Receive no baggage.” Not even hand
baggage was received, or wraps, or over
coats. All had to be sent back to their
homes by friends or messengers. Lunch
baskets and boxes were the only “extras”
allowed. Orders were, that after the
train had passed the tracks of the Sa
vannah, Florida & Western Railroad and
gone upon those of the East Tennessee,
Virginia & Georgia, the conductor was
to securely lock the car doors, and mingle
with the passengers as little as possible.,
A moderate cyclone passed over Jack
sonville Sunday. After the vortex went
by, a gale from the southwest, accompa
nied by load thunder, keen flashes of
lightning and a heavy rainfall continuing
several hours, clearing the atmosphere
wonderfully and lowering the tempera
ture, washing the surface of the streets
perfectly clean, as well as carrying sev
eral hundred barrels of lime which had
been scattered abroad, into the river.
“The effects of the storm,” said a lead
ing Cuban physician, “will probably be
excellent on the well, tending to lessen
materially the infection, but will be bad
on the sick. Unless watched with great
care many patients may have a serious
set back in consequence of the change of
the weather.”
About thirty new cases were reported
on Sunday, and but two deaths. Up to
date seventy-two have been dischaged as
cured. Summary of situation: Total
ca c es to date, 258; total deaths to date,

At a meeting of the Board of Health,
the following resolution -was passed:
“Resolved, That from this time no up

sanitary guards. Neal Mitchell, M. D.,
President of Board of Health.”
A committee of the Florida refugees
who are at present in Atlanta, Ga., went
to Tallahassee, Fla., and interviewed
Governor Perry, and the governor said
he will ask the government to erect bar
racks at some available point near Jack
s«nville for rtse by the poorer cla-ses of
Jacksonville who are unable to get away
from that city. The governor received
the committee very courteously and gave
every indication that he felt a deep in
terest in everything that would in any
way relieve the dreadful state of affairs
at Jacksonville. lie promised to do
everything in his power to arrange fox
transportation for refugees from Jack
sonville, and from present indications he
is going to succeed.
A public meeting, which filled the
court room to its utmost capacity, was
held on Monday night in Chattanooga,
Tenr., to take action looking to enfoic
ing a rigid quarantine against Atlanta
because she has opened her doors to the
yellow fever refugees from Florida. A
resolution was adopted urging the board
of health to order a quarantine against
Atlanta and all cities and towns where
refugees have been invited and are al
lowed to congregate.
By invi'ation of Governor John B.

Brunswick; Dr. Jerome Cochran, state
health officer of Alabama, and Dr.
James E. Reeves, ex president of the
American Public Health association, and
now special commissioner appointed by

The object of the conference was to con
sider the situation m Jacksonville, and
the expediency of allowing the people of
Jacksonville to go to other places, and
under what restrictions. The resolutions
of the Atlanta board of health were re
ceived by Surgeon General Hamilton.
After a general discussion and free ex
pression of opinion by the gentjemen
present. the following resolutions
were adopted by the conference:
“Resolved, That this conference cordially
approves the plans of the surgeon-gener
al of the United States marine haspital
service requiring ten days’ quarantine of
all persons from infected or suspected
places, together with the fumigation and
other disinfection of baggage, etc., from
the infected points. Resolved, That the
wholesale removal of persons from in
fected districts to populous cities and ag
gregation of individuals from infected
places in any city in this country is re
garded as extremely hazardous to any
such community. Resolved, That the
citizens of Jacksonville have no just
cause for complaint against quarantine
regidations, as at present operated, inas
much as abundant provision has been atid
will be made, by establishing healthful
and cleanly camps for the inhabitants of
Jacksonville and provision made
for the maintenance of such
citizens during their detention of camp.
Resolved, That, in the judgment of this
conference, after suspects have been* de
tained in quarantine, camp ten days, and
their baggage fumigated under the di
rection of the Lmited States government,
such persons should be permitted to go to
any community willing to receive them.
The conference adjourned, and Surgeon
General Hamilton left for Camp Perry,
St. Mary’s, Fla.
The orderlies of the Bellevue hospital
in New York, to the number of eighteen
on Monday, resolved to tender their ser
vices to go to Jacksonville to fight the
yellow fever.
THE DEADLY FLAMES.
At an early hour on Sunday morning
fire broke out in the toy warehouse of
Prior, Hilgenberg & Co., 107 South
Sharp street, Baltimore, Md. Before
the firemen could get to w ork, an ex
plosion of fireworks wrecked the build
ing and caused the flames to spread with
alarming rapidity to the drug house of
J. 11. Winkilman & Co. and the hat
house of M. S. Levy & Co., on the north.
Scarcely had the firemen entered the ed
ifice occupied by the drug house when
the inside of the building seemed to sud
denly drop in. A terrific explosion fol
lowed and the immense building col
lapsed. The entire fire department had
by this time reached the scene,
and as the attention of the men
w r as concentrated on the building
under which their comrades were
buried, the flames had a chance to
spread, and spread they did with fright
ful rapidity. In an incredibly short
space of time the entire block, running
from Lombard to Platt streets was a
seething mass of fl ime. At the drug
house the firemen worked bravely. Holes
were cut through the pavement and every
effort made to reach the imprisoned men,
but they were buried under a great mass
of brick and iron and the fierce flames
were roaring around the spot. George
Bowers, Thomas Wagner, John A.
Combs, Perry Ryan, Harry Walker,
George Kerins and Hiram McAfee were
buried in the ruins. The firms that were
completely burned out are: Wylis, Bus
ter & Co., wholesale shoe deal
ers; J.H. Winkilman & Co.,
drugs; Tabb Bros. & Domenick,
hardware; Prior & Co., toys; M.
S. Levi & Sons, hats; 11. S. King &
Sons, hardware; Dobler, Mudge &
Co.,paper; and Ilirschberg, Hol
lander & Co., paint and glass.
The origin of the fire will probably never
be known. No fire is used in the Prior
establishment and it is supposed spon
taneous combustion was the cause, but
it is known that a system of electric
lighting was introduced in the building
recently, and it was only tried that-night
and it may be that defective insulation
started the flames and the combustible
nature of the contents of the building
served as food for the destroying ele
ment. The fire was discovered by an
intoxicated man who stopped to rest on
the steps of a building opposite.
A BUMPTIOUS PAIR.
The celebrated Sharon divorce ease,
which has occupied the attention of the
Pacific Coast for a number of years, cul
minated on Monday, iu a sensational in
cident, which resulted in placing Sarah
Althea Sharon, now Mrs. Davids. Terry,
in jaii for thirty days, anu her husband,
Judge Terry, for six months. When
Judge Field announced a decision ad
verse to the claims of Mrs. Terry, she
assailed him with her tongue, for which
she w’as arrested. In her hand-bag was
found a bull dog pistol. As the officers
approached Mrs. Terry, her husband drew
a dirk aud attempted to stab the officers.
David S. Terry was formerly judge of
the supreme court of California, and
■while holding that position in 1856, be
came involved in a quarrel with David
C. Broderick, United States senator from
California. A duel followed, and Bro
derick was killed.

Mayor Lane, of Birmingham, has de

and instructed the officers to rigidly en
force it. No person who has been in
Atlanta within twenty days will be al

The mayor notified the officers of the
Georgia Pacific Railroad that no train
crews from Atlanta would be allowed to
enter that city, and no crew from this
city could go to Atlanta and return. The
quarantine tvas declared on account of
the number of Florida refugees now in
Atlanta, and the fact that they continue
to arrive there. It was also reported on
Thursday that there were two cases of
yellow fever in Atlanta.

LABOR DAY.
Lai® Day was celebrated in Cincinna
ti, Ohio, on Monday, by a big parade,
in which representatives of all tra lea
participated. Among the Knights ot
Labor assemblies represented were three
hundred members of the South Bend
assembly. The members of this assembly
all reside in the suburbs along the river
front, and are all rolling mill hands.
When the parade marched down Elm
street, this assembly halted in front of a
large political banner, stretched across
the street. The men refused to march
under the banner. After a consultation,
they decided it would be considered
cowardice to march around it. Action
was decided on in a hurry. Captain C.
C. Rouse, an old cavalry man, gave the
signal and instantly the stars and stripes
were lowered, the band struck up a funer
al dirge and in this manner the men
under the banner. When they
had pa-sed it the American flag was
raised the band played a lively air aud
the men proceeded iu the line of march.
4 here was magnificent weather tor the
celebration of Labor Day in New York
City. The city at large put on holiday
appearance, and residents were astir ear
ly. The grand parade was the particular
feature of the day. It is estimated that
40,000 people were in liue. Labor Day
was observed in Chicago, St. Louis, and
other cities.
INDIAN FIGHT.
Two bands of Indians in the Lasal

from the southern agency where the three
Ute commissioners now are, for the pur
pose of getting the renegades, if possible,
to go to the agency and take part in ihe
treaty negotiation. Several were killed.
