A Couple of Sick Pentrymsn Hold Her
Day at Quarantine.
The steamship Nacoochee from New York
yesterday underwent the same experience
as the Chattahooohee did the day before.
Two pautrymen were taken sick on the
voyage, and when DIR. Davis inspected the
vessel he found them suffering from fever
and complaining Of pains In the stomach.
The physician ordered the vessel into quar-
antine and sent the lTheckla to the clty
for Health Officer Drummer. The latter
went down at 1880 O'Clock aud carefully
investigated the sickness of the two men,
and found them to be suffering from a ma
larial trouble with only the pains incident
TO that disease. DR.. Drummer admins
tered medicine and Gin short
while had both all right. There were no
symptoms of cholera In either case, and at
o'clock he gave the steamer permission to
pass up. She arrived of quarantine at
daylight and reached her dock at z O'Clock
last night. She would have been I'D sooner
except for slight accident in getting
| ashore on bank.
DR.. Davis is acting under instruc-
tions, and will detain any steamers at
quarantine for the slightest case of sickness
no matter Of what character, until Health
| Officer Drummer can investigate it. No
chances will be taken by the sanitary
authorities, and il cholera gets into Savan-
nah 1t will have to come by some other route
than through the quarantine author
| tiles hands. Nothing suspicious can pass
the quarantine station.

"Kaiankan Tonight.

The attraction tonight will be exam
janka." The play, which Is Of the spectac-
ular order filed in with specialties, was here
last year and made big hit. The vaude-
vile portion of the performance Is perhaps
the heart Of it. 1t is all unusually brilliant
and vivid. All pantomimes must have their
dull ''chinks" filed in with golden plaster of
wit, fun and melody and in this respect
"Kajanka" is not lacking. A feature
OF the performance this year is
the work Of the Cornello Brothers,
who have become quite famous.
One of the Cornellos is the son of Capt,
Ed Paine OF the tug Regis Of this city who
left Savannah some years ago, aud has ma ie
a reputation as an acrobat Those who
have seen the play this season say 1t is
brighter than ever. Pretty girls. brighter
costumes, original and clever dancing, the
latest songs, funny comedians, Azany, the
clown, all combine to make "Kajanka"
what every one likes to see, a clean, bright,
wholesome entertainment

Headache and pHspepsia.

William E. Rockwell, No. 5l2 West Fifty
seventh street, New York, says:
81 have been a martyr to bilious headache
and dyspepsia. Any indiScretion In diet,
overfstigue or cold brings on a &c Of indl-
gesHon, followed by headache lasting two
or three days at time. / think I must
have tried over twenty different remedies,
which were recommended as certain cures
by loving friends, but it was no use. At
last thought would take a simple course
OF purgation with BRANDRETH's PILLS.
For the first week took two pills every
night, then one pill for thirty nights: In that
time gained three pounds In weight, and
never have had an ache OF pain since"
Disease III one part of the body will
eventually fill the whole body with disease.
Every year or two some part Of the system
grows weak and begins to decay, Such

The Actor Pugilist Wants to Meet
Corbett and Hall.

The Actor PuQtliSt Wants TO MeeI
Corbett and Hall.
Bob Fitzsimmons, the champion middle
weight pugilist, and his speciality company
appeared in 1.-The Heroic Blacksmith at
the theater last night before fair audience
in spite OF the rain.
Fitzsimmons introduces blacksmith shop
In full blast and turns a horseshoe an an
anvil before the audience. A well-trained
horse assists In the shop scene. In the last
act prize-ring scene takes place In which
Fitzsimmons spars with one of the members
or bis company and shows his cleverness
with the gloves in q manner calculated to
evoke enthusiastic applause from admirers
Of the manly art.
A MORNING NEWS man chatted with the
champion in his dressing room after the
performance. FitEsimmons is splendidly
proportioned about the chest, and his long
arms are almost as hard as iron. He talks
with decided English accent, leaving out
his "hs" where they should be, and adding
them whore there 10 no necessity for them.
II like acting" he said, but l like prize
fighting better. / will keep my company
on the road until next May, and after
that time will be ready for all
comers in the ring. The man am most
anxious to meet is Jim Hall, the champion
of England. have challenged him several
am willing to fight him in England if a
decent purse is put up"
"What is your opinion Of the Sullivan
Corbett fight"
Sullivan" replied FItzsimmons, twas
outclassed. The result cannot be attributed
TO insufficient or entertaining. Corbett was
too clever and too scientific for Sullivan.
The big fellow 10 not what he was ten years
ago, and he was not in 1t at all with Cor
bett- There was nothing more or less to the
fight than that Sullivan was whipped by
better man."
ut has been said that you might fight
Corbett"
Eyes. will fight him." promptly re-
sponded Fitzsimmons, "if the same kind Of
purse is put up as that offered in the re-
cent battle. don't say that can whip
esting fight while it would last He
would find 1t little different
from his experience with Sullivan. l
may challenge him when my Theatrical
season is over. but Hall Is the man l want
to get hold of first. l can train to meet
Corbett IN six weeks, and In four weeks can
put myself in condition to meet any man in
the middie-weight class. While Corbett
Is very clever man and a fine fighter l
believe jackson can whip him.
DO you think Sullivan will ever fight
Corbett againm
81 don'5 know, but If he does he would be
a fool. As Sullivan said the night of the
fight, after being whipped, he fought one
fight too many. He is a back number now,
in the ring. l think McAuliffe could whip
him. Not, however. by strength, but by
science. He could wind Sullivan without
ever being bit. and then could handle him
as he pleased"
Fitzsimmons presented the MORNING
NEWS the horseshoe he turned on the stage
1t is as neat as any that comes out of a

kidnapped" which will be presented at
the theater Sept. &c. matinee and night, is
by D. K. Higgins, who is also the author of
Byron's "Plunger." which made remark
ably successful tour last season. This, his
latest play, seems to be equally if not more
successful judging from the praise ac-
corded 1t by the critics OF New York
city, where it was recently produced.
The play introduces police patrol wagon,
and much stress is laid on the scene show
ing the great carriage sensation. A woman
is chloroformed, coupe is drawn up, she
is thrust into it and the horses dash away.
Add to these view of the deserted dock at
midnight, and the enormous effect of the
police patrol wagon, and there Is enough
realism to satisfy the most ardent lover of
realistic melodrama-
