COL. DANIELS FUNERAL.
The funeral of Col. J. J. Daniel this after
noon was very largely attended, hundreds
gathering to pay their last respects to his
memory. The services were affecting and
impressive, and at the close the remains
were carried to Greenwood cemetery.
Another black vomit recovery case is re-
ported from the Sand Hills, that of E. Yam
son. He had the dreaded vomit nine times
Monday night, and yet this noon DR.. Sol
lace Mitchell thought he would recover.
The MORNING NEWS is greatly appreci-
ated by the convalescents and nurses at the
Sand Hills. Many complaints have been
brought of late by people who say they
cannot gent medicine at night from the
drug stores. The druggists say they are
worn out by night, and that 1t is simply
impossible for them to remain on duty
night and day, and that they must
have rest. This may be true, but
in the meantime what is to become
OF those poor sick people who are in need of
medicine at nighta Are they to die2 Many
undoubtedly will If medicine cannot be
procured. This is a nut for the auxiliary
sanitary association to crack.
A HUNT FOR MEDICINE.
Night before last, at about 12 o'clock, a
gentleman tried very hard to get pre-
scription filled for a dangerously i'll
patient, and went to several drug stores
on Bay street. but not one was
open, and in despair he turned to
O policeman who fortunately knew where
Mr. Billiard, of George Hughes drug store,
lived, and the gentleman then went to Mr..
Billiards. house, represented the case TO him,
and Mr.. Billiard promptly came down town
and put up the prescription, although
greatly fatigued. II the policeman had not
known where a druggist could be found,
the gentleman would have had to return
empty-handed to his sick wife, and she
might have died. The question
of having drug store open ali night
Is Il very serious and necessary
one for the auxiliary association to settle, and
no doubt now that attention is called to it
some provision will be made for the future,
for the sick must have medicine at night if
neeied.
Willie Pyles, who died on Sunday of vel
low fever, was a nephew of Mrs. ID. n. Rey
nolds, who is now in New York. Mr. Pylcs,
with several others, was at Mr.. Reynolds
country seat keeping out of the way. All
have had the fever with the exception of
old Mr.. Reynolds. but no one else has died
there.
ALL THE PENNILESS NOT POOR.
An Offset to a complaint made in one of
the city papers that able-bodied men and
persons of means were clamoring for free
transportation, may be made. One able
bodied man, owning his little home, and
owing not a dollar, still was poor man
without money to travel on. This man,
preeuming the large transportation fund
was for him as well as the improvldent,
tried again and again to get transportation
Tor himself and his wife. After being used
as a shuttlecock for some time, he was ad-
vsel by the committee of transportation TO
mortgage his homo for money enough to
lake him out of the state.
The good work being done among the
SICK and distressed by the Freemasons Is
incalculable. They hear the case OF every
brother and respond instantly. There is

INCOMPETENT NURSES.
This epidemic has developed some OF the
worst frauds in the way Of nurses that ever
vent into n sick room. They come here
rom other places protesting to be expert,
need nurses and expecting good pay. and
Wen sent to n patient soon show their utter
"aut of knowledge In the business Of which
1esy claim TO be professionals.
