ATPEAL FOR ADDITIONAL ASSISTANCE I,IOO CASKS TO DATE.
Baton Rouge, September 30.—The Howard Association and the mayor make the following statement and appeal: Wc thought ten days ago that the generous and munificcnt responses to our appeal lor help for our needy sufferers would have more than supplied our wantB, but il is apparent now that unless we receive more assistance there will be great suffering in our midst.
Whilst we have been fortunate, compared with other places, in our death list, we have had over 1,100 cases of yellow fever, many of which we are satisfied would have proved fatal had it not been for the timely and generous aid extended to us from abroad, Our reports for several days past show an average of over 50 new cases daily. Our means are nearly exhausted, and without assistance there" will be great loss ot fife and suffering. l'?' •«.' v»il

John Condon was taken down this forenoon. Dr. H. Luave, of Hot Springs, has been detaied for duty at the city hospital.
A physician has been telegraphed for to attend Louis Bond, ill with the fever at Brownsville, Tenn.
THE FEVER AT MARTIN
A telegram from Martin says the fever, which seemed abated, has broken out with renewed violence. Six new cases have occurred since yesterday, and among them Dr. Hall, who has been doing very hard service, and J. L. Shull, the third telegraph operator who has been taken down. Among the critical cases are J. T. Shull, Harrison Vowel and T. J. Murphy. There have been 19 deaths and there are now thirty cases on hand. W.P.Johnson, depot agent, is out to day. Miss DouglassBibrell is convalescing. Inconsequence of the increase of cases and the illness of Dr. Hall, Dr. Wise will not return to Memphis, as intended. ,.
From Home to the Post Office. This necessary walk is made so pleasant to me by the sights by the way, that it is nearly always a source of mental delight, as well as physical recreation. The homes, with their unavoidable glimpses of home life, are always objects of interest and sympathy although their inmates may be utter strangers to me.
Signs of comfort and thrift rejoice my heart as though they were my own and the luxuriouftness oi* some, do not cause me to break the tenth commandment— often. (There is one house with just such a lovely bay window as I have always longed lor, where flowers bloom all the"year round. I invariably promise myself, in view of the above mentioned commandment, to look the other way when I pass that, but I never do.)
If it be morning I sometimes sec mamma at the door holding baby up to kiss papa good-by before he gets away to business. This is a sight I particularly delight in, especially if mamma looks as if she had had her kiss, too, on the other 6ide ot the door. How can I tell? Well, I am not sure I can explain it, and yet I always think I know. Happiness is a great beautifier and th^ face of the wife whose husband loves her, and thinks it worth while to let her know it. is sure to reflect some of the inward light. And just as surely the little pang that comes, when "John forgets," leaves its impress.
I wish John would not forget so often I! he could only realize how necessary to a woman's happiness these little tokens of loving appreciation are, he would nev er omit them. Bat John is apt to think

1 •$. fhj, Twenty-eight deaths from yellow fever have occurred during the past twenty-four hours, ending at 6ix o'clock to-night.- Dr. R. W.

that, having provided his wife with a home suitable to their position in life, and sufficient money lo satisfy the de mands of the "butcher, the baker, and the mantua-maker," his whole duty is done. Mistaken idea! For, if she be a woman worthy of her day and generation, she did not marry him for any of these things, and cannot help being disappointed when she is expected to find her whole happiness in them. She would rather have earned them for herself^ Thank God, the "good time" has come when it is no longer i^ecessarv for a woman to marry for a home and maintenance, or take the chance of being a burden in her old age.
The business houses, too, affjrd food for thought. During the last few years their owners have made a brave fight against hard circumstances tor, in many cases, a mere exis tence. Some have, through no fault of their own, fallen by the way. Others, by a great effort, have pulled through and all, I think, are now beginning to see "light ahead."
I have often wondered why or how some business men succeed so well in pleasing the public, while others so sig' nally fail. I think I have solved the problem,''so far, at least, as those are concerned whose customers are ladies. Their success or failure depends, I think, on two things which are about equally important. The one is their ability to keep their eyes and ears open to the wants of the people. I will not say their need3, for the two are not always identical, and the other is their ability lo select clerks who know how to assist the people in supplying their wants.
How often I hear from ladies such remarks as these: "I do not trade at Blank's when I can avoid it. The clerks always wait upon one as though they were conferring a great obligation, and it is not pleasant." Or,"I dislike to trouble Mr, A. when I go to so-and-so'f, he is always 60 beautifully posed, I can't bear to disturb him." Or, "Mr. B. always knows better than I do what I need that I find it disagreeable trying to be contrary." Now these ladies are not professional shoppers or habital fault-finders. They are just as willing to say when the facts warrant it. "When I do go to Blank's I always trade witii Mr. A. if I can. He keeps himself thoroughly posted. in regard to the goods in his department, and gives me credit for sufficient ability to attend to my own affairs." Or, Mr. B. is a tr gentleman. 1 have seen him Eell Mrs. Lazarus, in her faded calico, her two or three yards of cheap muslin or a spool of thread, with just a6 much deference of.manner.as wb»- f*'" Dive6, in sealskin and velvet, to goods of similAf quality and
Women, as a class, are often accused of being unappreciative ot acts of courtesy, and ungrateful for#benfits conferred by persons of the opposite sex. I am not sure but there may be, in a very few cases, a shadow of truth in these accusations. There is one business man in our citv, however, who haa done so much toward lightening the burden of long suffering wives that I cannot refain from mentioning his name. He has never lectured on "Woman's Rights" that I know of, but I feel sure that he must have thought deeply on the subject. I refer to Mr. James Hunter and I mention the fact gratefully that, where other shirt manufacturers have found it, necessary to use half a dozen or more buttons for a single garment, he uses only one. The benefit to women is obvious. Where there no button® they cannot by any possibility come off and consequently do not need to be sewed on. -it

a walk through dur streets is never without one drawback. In this connection allow me to pay my respect to
MTHE STREET-CORNER GUARDS* ^This company of noble and selfsacrificing young men «eems to have been largely recruited during the past spring and .summer, and are now about finishing up the season's campaign. They expect soon to go into winter quarters around saloon and office stoves and, during their usual winter's campaign of whittling goods boxes and disposing of immense quantities of poor tobacco, and. poorer whisky, they will be ready to sally forth, on warm, simtiy days, thoroughly equipped for their self appointed work ot guarding the corners of the streets. In fhe meantime, they may be seen constantly at the post of duty.
On Sunday, the S. C. G.'s are on dressparade, and on these occasions every one holds she rank of inspector-general.
Ranging themselves along each side of the walk leading to the church door, all the millinery goods undergo the clos est scrutiny, and arc freely commented upon by these gallant officers.
Their uniforms, however, are not quite satisfactory to their ardent admirers. There seems to have been a scarcity of broadcloth and patent leather, and a superabundance of brass and necktie material at the company's tailor shops.
In addition to their great work of guarding and ornamenting the corners of the streets, these brave young men ardestined to be of great service to the scientific world. They are sure, sooner or later, to demonstrate the fact, hitherto unknown, that it is possible for mane like some of the lower orders of animals —to live, move, and have his being, entirely without brains. :Iq

BALLOON ATICS.

Ii$ an instant after the balloon left its plafe of mooring which was immediately to the west of the rear central entrance of the Exposition building) it be-? came«ntan?leA vy"*kV *"^1 notnfty yards distant. The wind swung
only Ihe car which was among the branches, while the balloon was above the tree-tops.
No one could help, even though Mr. Gilbert were being beaten to death among the branches, and in less time than is occupied in noting the occurrence, the balloon was once more free, and Mr. Gilbert was seen, still hatless, clinging to the ropes above the car, which,'however, had all this time been in such a terribly confused condition as to prevent him from escaping from his perilous position. The wind took il to the northwest, in a direct line for an old gnarled trunk,whose bare arms extended about forty seel from the ground.
Another moment and it was again interceptedj and this time the effect was to tear a rent in the canvass a dozen feet in length. Notwithstanding the immediate escape of gas which resulted, the balloon again obtained its freedom, but all its beauty was gone, and its descent was but a question of seconds. It was, however, driving along at a fearful pace across the racing track, and at a distance of about twenty ieet from the ground Mr. Gilbert jumped from the car. He and the ballon reached the ground at almost the same moment .and.ouly a few feet apart. I* m.'
THE EXTENT OF GILBERT'S INJURY. The crowd at once surged towards the spot where the aeronaut had fallen, every one being anxious to ascertain the extent and nature of his injuries. He was piecked up and carried in the arms of several men to the music hall.
It was soon ascertained that the injury to the knee joint was ofa serious nature, and upon careful examination it proved to be a cominuted fracture of the tibia, the internal tuberosity or inne^side of the head of the bone being broken entirely off.
At a late hour last night he was resting quietly, having suffered no other injury than a few scratches and bruises. The fracture of the knee joint is, however, of such a serious nature that he will probably be unable to walk for at least two months, under the mo6t favorable circumstances. As soon as practicable he will be removed to his home at Cincinnati.
The accident was the cause of much excitement around the throng of ladies and children in the exposition building and grounds, and many were thi subject of hysteria and fainting. Some horses were frightened by the passage of the balloon over thefr heads, but no serious mishap occurred. T"

Indianapolis had a balloon ascension yesterday. It was to have been a balloon race, but one of the aero nauts became frightened, which was, perhaps, welt enough for as it was oue too many went up. |A" high wind was blowing at the time (some body or something is blowing there all the while) and besides Indianapolis i: not as good a place for ascensions, ai Terre Haute is, any way After a col umn of fine writing about the weather etc., the Journal drops into the facts of the case as follows:
No sooner had Mr. Gilbcft ulteredthe words, ,"HANDS OFF THERE,^YOU B0YS,"|^ than a sudden and violent wave of wind struck the balloon, wrenching it from the grasp of the few persons who were still holding cn, and carrying it with a bound in northerly direction. Instead of ascending,Its course was only just over the heads of the crowd. It was a wonder, indeed, that some of the vehicles over which it passed were not caught by the grappling-hook, which was pendent from the tar some dozen feet.
