Physicians OF Tampa city have been
somewhat puzzled in diagnosing the pecu-
liar symptoms which have affected Miss
williams. n niece OF Mrs. Lizze C,areN
and daughter Of a prominent Macon jew
eler. on last Friday Miss Williams was
to have taken teaspoOnful of medicine,
bul IL IS probable that she thought II
teaspOOnful would do some good, a larger
quantity would have more satisfactory re-
suits. She consequently took four tea
spoonfuls at one time. Shortly afterward
she was taken with violent delrium, did
not know anyone, became uncontrollable,
and had to be put to bed, where it required
the united forces of several of the house
hold to control her She then began to have
periods of swOOning, which occurred sew
eral times during the night. The Occu-
pants of the house became much alarmed,
thinking on each occasion that she was
about to pass away. She applied names Of
FORMER companions TO those around her,
calling some as members of her own fam
lily, and did not recognize her aunt, toward
whom she appears to feel a particular
aversion. Morphine was injected and ether
administered, but with little effect She
only remained under the influence of
either drug for few minutes. She called
for her father necessarily, and those
around her thought is advisable to send
for him, but the doctors did not think 1t
necessary. not deeming the symptoms sur
flciently alarming. Altogether it was pc
culiar case, and has completely upset the
entire household. Miss Williams Is now
nearly herself again.

On the o'clock train which arrived

able to walk, and could not talk above
a faint whisper He was one Of those
unfortunates whose life has slowly ebbed
away with consumption. and who, as a
last resource, had sought the warm sun
shine and balmy breezes of Florida to
restore him to health. The man ordered
carriage and asked to be driven to a
hotel. This was done, but upon arriv-
ing at the place, he was refused admis-
sion. He was driven to another hotel.

same answer. Finally he was driven 70
the police station, and there he received
no announcements 1t seemed that no
place in the city, with its many hotels and
boarding houses, was open to him. This,

plenty of money, and was well able to

some of the hotels, and they were asked
if they had vacant rooms. The reply came
that they had but when the sick man
was mentioned, the reply was that they
did not want him. At length, however, 4

well dressed and of good appearance and
the only thing against him was that he

Rather Curious Case.
