81 .OOO, 600 to worthy citizens of the United


81 ,00O,G to worthy citizens of the United
States -
After coercing the King and chiefs it
was decide to compel the promulgation
of a law obliging every able bodied man
to scour the mountains for sandal
wood, while the women (by which term
all females over thirteen years of age
were included) were compelled to contri
butte tapa cloth and rare mats. Ali
these goods were sold in China by the
missionaries. The gathering Of the
amou of sandal wood required was a
great hardship, for it requ red an aver
of sixteen days labor by each man.
Trees We're dug up by the roots, and the
richly scented wood was, as re- nit, eX-
terminated in all the Hawaiian Islands.
The method of collec ing the tribute is
thus described by Commander Jones
in the Litter to Hon o, den Hoffman:
Every man had to deliver half pecul
(slxty-seven pounds) Of good sandal
wood t, the Cow rnor of the district of
his reside CO before September l, 1927.
In case of no sandal wo. d, We took four
Spanish dollars, or anything convenient
ly at hand worth that sum NJ person,
except those who were infirm, or too adj
vanced in age to go to the mountains,
were exempt from the demand
Continuing, the command who en-
forced the claim says: every woman
of the age of thirteen years or upward
had to pay mat twelve feet long and
six feet wide, or tapa cloth of equal value
or to the sum of one Spanish dollar. All
of this property had to b. put in desi =
mated honses and never to b. removed
or applied TO any other purpose except
the liquidation OIL the debis designated"
HAwAuANS TAKE LEGAL ADVICE.
These laws were promulgated by King
Kamehameha Ill. during his minority,
and after the destl uctIve character of
Amer can canon han been explained to
him during some vivid target pract &c.
Modern educated Hawaiians have hired
Paul Neumann as their attorney to in
vestigate these matters, and me will
soon file a claim at Washington for the
81 900 600 exacted and compound in
t-rest since 1875.
Attorney Neumann relies chiefly uPon
Commodore jones' report, now on file in
the Navy Department, for his case. His
report was hastily approved by Congress
without investigation on the presumption
that it was all right. The following pro-
positions will be embodied in the petit
tion of the descendants of the plundered
Hawaiians That Commander Jones
forced the Government to adopt The sam
dalwood law; that there was no value
given the natives for the wood, and that
the United st ties are responsible for the
unlawful conduct of the naval COM
mander
1t is not unlikely that Mr.. Neumann
and a delegation of Hawaiians will visit
Washington to file this claim at an early
date.

A WONDERFUL BABE.
Nineteen Years of Age and Still the Same as When an Infant
 of 8 Months.

ANNIsToN, Oct. 27.-lSpecial Corre- spondence. l-There vast at the Oxanna ho- tel for several hours yesterday young woman 19 years old whose age seemed nearer that of babe months old than what it really was.
 The young lady's name was Miss Mary Washington Butler, and she was the eldest of six children born to MT. and Mrs. Henry Butler, whose home has been in Philadelphia. Yesterday they were en they will reside in future, and were waiting in Oxanna for the train which was to take them to their new home.
 The daughter referred to was born Jan- nary 6, 1875, and for about eight months, her father said, grew rapidly like other children, but at that time growth and de- yelopment, both physical and mental, stopped. MT. Butler said he consulted some of the most eminent physicians and medical scientists ID the country, put to no effect. The case was one which puzzled them all and no one was able to help the unfortunate child, Many conflicting the- ories were presented.
 The child at birth was an unusually healthy and we'll developed baby, and for the first eight months showed signs of the usuai development in children. There was no lack of growth, no lack of appetite or anything else that could for moment make either of the parents or any medical atte ndant doubt that the child was natural and normal in all respects. Indeed, in health and appetite the little one has never given any trouble. She seems, except in the matter of eyesignt. to enjoy all the senses. One of ner eyes haspartially given away and tue child shows desire to use the left eye more than the right one.
 The first iulimaiion that the family ever had of the baby's lack of development was when it reached the.end of the first year of it's existence, when it was noticed that the little one made no attempt to walk or even to crawl. The mother, on observing this,. at uhce consulted several doctors, all of whotn made examinations, but failed to discarn anything pronounce1 in the lack oi deveiopment. Some of them stated that the little one would in g few years or prob ably in a few months regain what the mother thought was lack of energy.
 Time went on and yet no improvement took place in the child's peculiar state. Asthe year 1877 drew to close the parents became very uneasy about her. A host of physic were again and again consulted, but all failed to come to any direct conciu- sion. Hospitals and doctors innumerable were visited and consulted, but all to no
Birmingham age-herald., 1894-10-28

avail in giving the child renewed vigo r. Some pronounced the child only back ward and bade the mother have patience, assuring her that in due time the little one would make up for lost months. Even at the age of years one doctor said the little one would rally, although he admitted that the case was puzzling. |,
 Mary, at the age of and years, showed no more signs of development tL an when she was child of 8 months and does not now. She has never caused any trouble, never shown any signs of disease, but has in all these nineteen years remained tne same infant she was when 8 months old. The only difference noticeable, said her father, in the young woman, now over !9 years old, and the baby of months, IS that the head may be little larger and the lips little more prominent.
 She still su bsists on baby food. No stronger sounds proceeded from her lips yesterday than when she was s months old. She has never made any attempt to get on her feet, and her arms and.legs are just as small and dimpied as when in baby hood she prattled on her mother's knee. Everything possible has been done.to make the little one comfortable, and she seems as happy and bright as the ordinary baby. She moves but little and appears happy when she hears others singing or sees them playing around her and will then hum to herself.
 The parents are very sensitive about their daughtsr's misfortune,. and few people about the h otel yesterday knew of the won derfui baby.

Georgia's Chief Executive Formally
 Inaugurated Into Office.
TWO HUNDRED STUDENTS
Of the Georgia Normal Insti- tute Witness the Ceremony.
 His Inaugural Address.

ATLANTA, Ga., Oct. p. 7.--Hon. w. Y. Atkinson was inaugurated governor of Georgia today at noon in the hall of the house of representatives.
 Long before noon the house galleries be- gan to fill up with an eager crowd. Two hundred seats in the center of the gallery were reserved for the students of the Geor- gia Normal School for Girls. This school was established by an act of the legislature which was passed through the efforts of MT. Atkinson.
 The speakers stand was beautifully decorated with flowers. The floral tribute that attracted most attention was sent by the girls of the normal school. Accom- panying it was streamer of broad white ribbon bearing the inscription ITO Cover nor Atkinson on his sinauguration day. Will liam Yates Atkinson, from the girls of the Georgia Normal institute. Banks of palms fianked each side of the stand.
 Speaker Fiemming called the house to order at II :45 o'clock.
 Chairs were reserved for the Atkinson family immediately in front of the speakers stand. His children came in and took seats early. MT. Atkinson's wife and mother were escorted to their seats a few o'clock when the inaugural procession en : tered the east door of the house. 1t came in the following order:
 The joint committee.
 Governor Northern with Governor-elect Atkinson.
 Chief Justice Bleckley.
 Justices Lumpkin and Simmons.
 Senator Walsh and the state house off, ciaIs.
 President Venable Introduced the gover- nor-elect.
 Mir. Atkinson began his inaugural ad- dress by saying that he could not refrain from returning his thanks to the young ladies for their attendance. But he appre- ciated more than the crown of the Caesars the magnificent outponring of the people of Georgia to his inauguration.
 s'I enter upon my public duties with sincere purpose to discharge every obliga- tion incurred.p He had had many pred- ecessors who were illustrious men,. He assumed the duties of the high office of governor at an important period in the history of the state. ssLet us lay aside and forget all bitterness that may have been engendered In the recent political con- tests.'' MT. Atkinson appealed for har- mopy and said all must share alike the triu mphs and disasters that are met with. The same rights must be accorded to all i, the rich and the humble alike. The people of eorgia are an intelligent and progressive people, and should demand wise and healthy measures as being essen- E tial to good government. lille who serves his people will receive his reward iu their meritsd esteem. They will love him for the enemies he has made ],

SIXTEEN PERSONS CRDNATED
 S In a Hf $ in Seattle, and Others
 Yet Missing. l.S iORRIBLE SPECTACLE
SPECTACLE
Witnessed After the Flames Had Been Subdued-An Entire
 Family Dead in One Room.

SEATTLE, Wash., Oct. By fire at an early hour this morning in the West Street house, at Columbia and West streets, twelve persons lost their lives and several others were injured.
 At o'cle1k this morning fifteen bodies had been taken from the ruins. The search is still being continued.
 The following is list of the transient guests as shown by the register taken from the burning building.
 A. Wetson, F. Bollman, R. D. Simon son, c. D. Johnson, M. Mcsorley. John Chesterman, G. Hicks, Mrs. J. w. Huns man, D. Frazer, Mrs. J. Smith and friend. J. F. Clark, Charles A.

Chase, William Me Nalr, John Kingson, city; M. G. Dedrick- s,n, Port Biakely.
 A. G. Butler, brother of tue proprie- tor, is missing.
 The injured are:
 EDWARD HAvLIN, badly injured about the head and back by jumping.
 D. B. GLASS, leg broken, back injured.
 0. B. ANDERSON. hand burned and badly bruised.
 The saddest sight of all was found in the inside room, off the passageway which led to West street. There, calmly lying in charred and blackened bed, was evidently an entire family. The father lay on one side, wife next to nin, and little burned and bIackened arm, the flesh falling in shreds from it and the small fingers clutched, showed that little child was among the victims.
 Crouched in corner of small inside room two charred and naked skeletons met the gaze. The flesh was burned from each, and the first, that of a man with blackened stumps of arms, seemed to be fighting an impending danger. Immediately behind him, also bolt upright and clutching his waist, was the skeleton of woman. The eyes were burned from the sockets of each, but even then one could easily imagine the look of horror, the deadly fear which clung to the ill-fated couple as they fought with an unseen foe.
 There were about twenty transient guests registered, and Night Clerk Butler says the hotel had about twenty permanent guests. It is absolutely known that sixteen persons perishedRpd the next few hours may add largely to the>terrible death roll.

A BIG TELEPHONE FIGHT ON
Judge Brooks Death Causes Selmians to Mourn-FeIl
 From a Moving Train.
AGE HERALD BUREAU, l
 SELMA. OcL. 27.


 At 6:3O o'clock yesterday evening an alarm Of fire was turned in from the Fourth ward. The fire was found on Range ave- nue, utside the city limits, and there was no water in reach with which to fight the flames. The fire started in store or dwelling belonging to MT. w. F. Matthews and occupied by Alonzo Matthews. The flames quickly spread to the house oI Mrs. Simons adjoining. Both houses were burned to the ground.
 Tae fire is supposed to have been incen- diary, as two attempts have been made re- gently to fire the Matthews store house. Both houses were partially covered by in- surance. There is no clue to the guilty parties. The voting booths of Valley Creek beat were stored in one of the houses and were destroyed.
 SELMA MoURNs JUDGE BROOKS DEATH. News of the death of Judge William Brooks in Birmingham yesterday has cast gloom over our city. For many years he was a citizen of Selma and his friends and admirers can be counted by hundreds.

 FELL FROM A TRAIN.
 A negro brakeman named Charles Mo- Johnson fell from a moving freight train of-the Southern railway near MontevalIo yesterday, and sustained serious injuries. {. He was brought to the city and is now at the Hospital of United Charities. He has no relatives or friends.
 TELEPHONE FIGHT ON.
 The Bell Telephone company is doing all in it's power to crush out the new local company, [, and has declared it's intention to run It's exchange free of charge so long as the new company undertakes to do busi- ness. The AGE-HERALD's representative has interviewed g large number of sub- scribers and finds them without exception determined to stick to the local company. They feel, and rightly so, that had it not been for the local company they would have continued to paythe exorbitant rent als paid to the Bell company for the past fifteen years, and they argue that so soon as the local company gives up the fight the Bell people will raise the rents. Besides this there is a local pride which will make them stand up to the home company through thick and thin.
