COL. DANIELS ILLNESS.
Late this afternoon Col. J. j. Daniel was
very low and little hope was entertained of
his recovery. He has devoted his services
since last spring very largely to the public
in connection with the fever at Plant CITY
and this place. With feeble constitution
he has performed wonderful amount of
work for the general good without hope or
desire of reward, and has borne great re-
sponsibilities. Broken by grief at the loss
Of his nearest friends and relatives and
business associates, only his iron will has
kept him up so far.
At late hour tonight Col Daniels con-
dition had improved.
BUT LITTLE CHANGE.
But little change is reported in the situa-
ton here to-day.
Two more nurses arrived to-day. Both
are women. One is from Muskegon. Wis,
and one from Philadelphia. The lady from
Muskego gon, who was hospital nurse during
the war, claims that God revealed to her
through three dreams that by coming to
jacksonville she could accomplish great
good among the sick and needy, and there.
fore she obeyed what she thought to be
divine command.
Christopher Antonio an italian who kept

Joseph HELEN. proprietor of the West
End saloon on Bay street. also died this
afternoon. Imprudence In eating against

ness Of those who are convalscing when re-
covering from the fever 1t is necessary

Notwithstanding the orders Of the attending

tiously eat something that causes their
