"VOL. V. O. 6 SIXTY NEW CASES FEW DEATHS Mild Type of Disease Shown By Low Mortality ; Spread o! Yellow Fever Curse Still Continues In New Orleans. Other News New Orleans, Aug. 11.

G79 , Deaths . . . . . 7 Total to date .. .. ..; .. .... 126 New sub-foci 5 Total to date . . 135 New Orleans, Aug. ll.: In- order that no unnecessary risks might be .taken, it was announced yesterday, both by Surgeon White , and by Fa ther Scotti,:in.' charge" of the arrange ments, that the funeral of the late Arcihblshop Chappelle, to-day. at 9 o'clock in the morning, was pri vate. ; . Dr. White" said it was a fact ac cepted by the scientists that yellow fever could not transmitted by a corpse, but its element of dahger is attracting to the cathedral . an im mense assemblage of people from all sections of the city. The cathedral is located within tne original infected district, within a stone's throw of the French market and there has been fever on all sides of it. Not all the stegomyias below Canal street have by any means been destroyed, and the mingling of people, from infected districts with those from non-infected quarters might result in a still wider diffusion of the present sickness. - - To Prevent Appendicitis In a current magazine article an . . f 1. 1 f J TV- T. eminent n.ugnsn puysician, jur. ju seph Kidd, takes the lay reader into alio UUIAUCHO clull tc;iiQ mui uti about the alleged facts concerning appendicitis. As to the origin of this rather common and perplexing disease, Dr. Kidd says, "the actual exciting cause" in most cases is a chill. "Do not neglect chills," he warns us, "when heated by the exercise, especially after games on grass, or when much fatigued in mind or body." . Also, we are cautioned to masticat.e well, eat slowly, do not swallow any food that is not perfect ly softened by the teeth." If you are in a hurry, it Is much better to eat -half a meal well masticated than to bolt a heavy meal almost whole. Lastly and upon this special stress ia lnlri "anerient salts, waters or pills. Far better to let nature do her own work, undisturbed by pur gatives of any sort." This authority goes on to say that the best guarantee again.rt appendi citis is to take care of your general health. If the system be well nour ished and the bodily forces well sus tained, nature will often work Its own cure before the existence of ap pendicitis is suspected. If the di gestive tract is vigorous, the abnor mal conditions will often be oxei4 come by the effort which nature will make to restore normal conditions. Some physicians hold that proba- bly no person reaches the age of 20 years without having had an attack of appendicitis, just as it is claimed that no one reaches middle life without at one time, or several times, having tuberculosis present in some part of the system.

SOUTHBOUND NO. 29 DERAILED Fngine and Several Cars Leave Track at Lynchburg, No One Hilled Southbound train, No. 29, due to arrive here at 8:30 Jast night, was derailed at Lynchburg, Va., yester day afternoon at 3:30 o'clock 'and as a consequence, all Southbound trains are greatly delayed. Though the wreck was a most ser ious one, there was no one killed or seriously injured. Two mail clerks were slightly bruised and a few of i the passengers shocked ry the. wreck "but their injuries are regarded as very slight. It -is considered quite remarkable that . there was not a large number killed and injured. The accident occurred at the bridge which crosses the main channel of the river at Lynchburg and just a short distance beyond the depot. The engine and all but one of the sev eral coaches of the; train were de railed. The bridge is of Iron trestle work and the braces and rods on the sides of the trestle prevented the engine and cars from going Into the river when they were derailed. If it had not been for this, the result' would have been frightful. The engine, coaches and trestle were badly damaged and the loss will amount to several thousand dol lar's. Wrecking crews were hurried to the scene, but it will be noon to day, possibly much later, before the wreckage is cleared away. After this is done, the bridge must be re paired. At one place a new span will have to be built. Train, No. 35 was running not far behind No. 29 when the latter was wrecked. It was necessary to trans fer the passengers at the scene of the wreck, but this caused great de lay. As Northbound trains, Nos. 36 and 30 had not passed Lynchburg when the wreck occurred they were tied up also. Thus the traffic both ways was almost at a standstill. A section of No. 35 was made up at Danville last night, and ran to At lanta, passing -through here a little behind schedule time. The trains are now going over the Chesapeake & Ohio line, via Staunton until the wreck can be cleared 'up and the trestle repaired. At midnight last night the Southbound trains were marked on the board, "Indefinitely delayed." Rev Richards of New York Speaks at Spencer Tomorrow Rev. Nathaniel Richards, of White hall, N.

The case against Frank Moore; Im plicated in the murder, robbery, and fire at the oil company's plant here, appears to be a very strong one to the solicitor of this district, and 'he says It is made particularly so by Moore's voluntary confession. Moore was committed to Jail this evening without ball, the magistrate holding his confession to'be valid, though Moore's attorneys sought not to have it recognized. The Secretary of 'War notifies President Winston that Lieutenant Young, U. S. A., cannot be detailed as military instructor at the agricul tural and Mechanical College here.
