changed; the very men who three
years ago talked. loudly OF the Am
erican flag floating out in the Pacific
Ocean, are now in favor OF ne policy
of non.iutervention. There are many
causes which influence this change
of opinion. The first is far better
acquaintance with the situation aud
the circumstances OF the dethrone-
ment as you knew it on the spot at
the time. The feeling amongst those
sympat hizing with the native Ha-
waiians is that they have been quiet
hitherto because their Queen told
them to remain so, with view OF
having her wrongs rishted by the
United States, yet just as soon as it
is known that the United States ac-
cepts the Senate report as final and
will do nothing unless absolutely
iorced to act, the native people will
no longer accept the condition OF
things, but make alliance with any
disturbing element for the purpose
OF restoration OF the monarchy. |
think that so far as the present
dread by the Dole government is
sincere this is the course Of things
they fear. Then the tariff question
with us is very serious matter; we
must have more revenue say the
fuaaciers. 1t is suggested that we
have allowed l4O,O00,O00 of sugar to
come in free of duty in less than
twenty years; that neither our own
country nor Hawaii has benefited
by it; that the treaty has been sole
ly for the benefit OF few sugar
planters who hoard their millions.
This view OF matters is helped along
by the growth OF the beet sugar in-
terest, which has ceased to be an
experiment. California, once your
ally for closer relationship, now has
the strongest of reasons for keeping
you at distance. The State needs
the protection for beet sugar which
duty on your cane sugar will bring
to her, and | see nothing but
financial ruin for your sugar estates
unless they can do business on a
four to eight per cent profit. They
can pay no such dividends as in the
past. One man Of whom it was
asked what would become OF the
islands in case annexation was re-
fused and abrogation of the recipro-
city treaty became a fact, replied:
They must go back to just where
they we're prior to 1878; their com.
mercial prosperity was overthrown
in 1898; the treaty never benefited
the common people and in time
their situation would be as it once
was 1t is hard to see or say how
the treacherous overthrow OF the
former government has worked the
ruin Of the present rulers, yet such
is the general belief. l have heard
it said that the men now in power,
if their pride would allow it, would
like to see the monarchy reestablish-
ed. Claus Spreckels, who has done
a great deal for the commerce OF
the islands is, think, thoroughly
sick of them; his capital and his
interests in business are far more
likely to be devoted to building up
the beet sugar industry. In Wash
ington just now it is all Cuba, upon
which resolutions are offered in
Congress aud columns of discussion
in the newspapers. You could not
get up any excitement there jus,
now on Hawaii whatever the issue

A Vigorous Effort Being Made to Check the
Disease, Which May Be
Successful.

Birmingham, Ala, July 27.-There
are now twenty-eight cases of small
p0x at the pesthouse on Red noun
tain, two miles from the city. The
twenty-eighth case developed this
morning and was Immediately sent to
the mountain. There are about ten
suspected cases at the camp of deten-
tion on the mountain, but none have
yet shown eruption. The most vigor-
Gus measures are being put into force
by the health and city authorities to
stamp out the disease and its further
spread.
AS soon as a suspicious case is
found 1t is hurried out of town, the
bedding where it came from is burned,
and the premises dislnfected. AT a
joint meeting of the Jefferson county
medical society and citizens held last
night the situation was reviewed and
it was officially proclaimed that the
disease is smallpox, there having been
a conflict of opinion among medical
men up to this time.

The house of representatives failed to
pass the senate bill providing for FIVE

make general arrangements for Amer
ica's exhibit.
An appropriation of $4,000 was
made to defray the expenses of this
commlssionership. The appointment

THE SUMS ECLIPSE.
About Thrse-FOurths of the Disc Will Be
0bsCured on Thursday.

A partial eclipse of the sun will be
seen in Brunswick on Thursday morn
ing, the eclipse being distinctly visible
if the sky shall be clear. The eclipse
will be nearly total in Mexico, Cuba,
and the Atlantic Ocean. The eclipse
will begin about 80, and last until
after IL O'Clock. Otis Ashmore writes
about the eclipse in the Savannah
Newsa follows:
"The first contact will occur on the
western limb of the sun, 80 degrees
from the north point, and the last
contact on the eastern limb, 1872 de-
grees from the north point. About
three-fourths of the suns diameter on
the southern side will be obscured,
leaving the sun in the shape of a cres-
cent, like the moon about four days
after new moon.
Notwithstanding the fact that more
than one-half of the sun will be hid
den from view, but little apparent
change will be noticed in the quantity
or the character of the light. A slight
hazlness of peculiar character may
be noticed, but otherwise nothing OF
an unusual nature may be expected.
About one-half of the heat will be cut
off for some time.
Everyone knows that an eclipse of
the sun is caused by the moon passing
between the earth and the sun, by
which all or portion of the light is
cut off,"

Deputy United States Marshal Not Under the
Civil Service.

Civil Service.
Louisville, July 27.-Judge John W.
Barr, of the United States district
court, this morning handed down an
opinion in the matter of the injuuc-
tion brought by Deputy United States
Marshal Lee Dudley to prevent DIR. A.
D. james, the newly appointed repub-
llcan United States marshal, from dis
charging him. Dudley claimed as an
office deputy that he was protected by
civil service.
Judge Barr held that there was no
difference between an "office deputy" !"
as Dudley claimed to be, and field
deputy, and that the civil service did
not apply in either case, their appoint
ment expiring at the expiration of the
term of their superior. The case will
be heard before four judges of the
United States circuit court in October.

They Give the Citizens of Bruins
wick an Exhibition Dress
Parade.
SPEAK HIGHLY OF ST. SIMON.
They Want to Camp There Every Year-An
Imposing Military Spectacle on the
0glethOrpe Green.

The Fourth regiment said good bye
to Brunswick yesterday afternoon
with full ranks, in fine style and with
inspiring music. The weather proved
small drawback, and hundreds of
citizens lined the green south of the
Oglethorpe to see the impressive dress
parade.
The soldiers left camp at noon and
were broughtup to the city on spec
ial boat, reaching the city at 2 p. m.
In town, the boys had a great time.
The Ritiemen's armory was headquar-
quarters, but the soldiers, in their
heavy campaign uniforms, scattered
about the streets, and in the time in
tervening between their arrival and
the time for dress parade, they had all
the fun they wanted. Fl. Walker
Dexter had large number of the boys
in line, and they paraded the streets,
fur lshing their own music.
Az s o'clock formation was sounded
from the Riflemen's armory, and
shortly afterward, the six companies,
preceded by the First Battalion band.
marched down Newcastle street to the
parade ground. The police cleared
the space, and the dress parade was
proceeded with. The Albany Guards
acted as escort of the colors, and went
through the evolutions in perfect
style.
Major Jerger and Captain Hansell
acted as majors, and Or. JOerger and
his little son Fred were mounted with
Col. Varnadoe's staff.
The companies participating in the
parade were the Waycross Rifles,
Brunswick Riflemen, Albany Guards,
Thomasville Guards, Dawson Guards
and Valdosta Videttes.
At the dismissal of the parade, the
regiment marched to the Rihemen's
armory and thence to the union de-
pot, where they boarded five special
coaches attached to the regular Plant
system train, which left the city at
:45.
The Brunswickians at the depot
gave the regiment a grand send-Off.
Cheers, in return, were given for
Brunswick, for st. Simon, for the
Riflemen, and for the officers. The
train pulled out ten minutes late, and
the cheering of the uniformed pas
sengers made things lively all along
the line.
Every officer and private in the
regiment and every member of the
band expresses himself to the effect
that the encampment just closed was
the most successful in which they
ever participated. There was nothing
to mar pleasure, nothing to interfere
with duty. All want to come again,
and hope they will be able to do so.

COLONEL'S STRONG WORDS.
He is Unhesitatingly in Favor of St, Simon
for the State Camp.

he is Unhesitatingly in Favor of St, Simon
for the State Camp.
A TINES man yesterday asked Col.
j, o. Varnedoe, commanding the
Fourth regiment, for a statement of
his preference, between st. Simon
and Griffin, as a site for the state en-
campment.
81 am unhesitatingly in favor of ST..
Simon" said Col. Varnadoe, with ein-
phasis; and proceeded to give his
reasons.
''My experience has been that SOL
diers in camp behave better when
there is great diversity of amuse-
ments for their hours off duty than
when there are few. At st. Simon,
they have so many comparatively in
nocent amusements to claim their
time e-the surf, the company Of ladies',
the social entertainments constantly
being given at seaside resort-that
they have little opportunity and feel
little inclination to indulge in the
dissipatiOns which are so detrimental
to the success of military encamp-
ments. [ have had no trouble in
maintaining discipline at St. Simon;
I have had much trouble at other
places. | think work should begin at
once to have st. Simon made the
state pment site"
Col. Varnadoe's sentiments are
echoed by every officer and every man
in the Fourth regiment.
