Mr.. Isaac Horner, proprietor of the
Burton House, Burton, w. Va, and
one of the most widely known men
in the state, was cured of rheuma-
tism after three years of suffering.
He says: 81 have not sufficient COM
mand of language to convey any idea

told me that nothing could be done
for me, and my friends were fully con-
WINGED that nothing but death would
relieve me of my suffering. In June,

the Wheeling Drug Company, recon-
mended Chamberlain's Pain Balm. AT
this time my foot and limb were

PUBLIC HEALTH.
What the Physicians of the City Have
To Say.

The physicians of the city are cal
.culating upon the possibility of a
good deal of sickness amoung the peo-
pie on the island of Oahu this sum-
mer They say that the indications
at hand now point strongly in this di-
rection \ few cases have already de-
developed. which. however, are not at
all serious.
DR.. Murray has given it as his opin-
ion that such will be the case unless
favorable climatic conditions set in.
Board of Health, stated this morning
that, sickness invariably manifested
itself when dry, hot summer was
followed by heavy rains. The percent
age of fever cases under such circum-
stances was always greatly increased.
A great many of the diarrhoea cases,
DR.. Emerson attributed to the impur-
itv of the water rather than to CON
ditions of thesoil.
speaking of the matter said that he
believed business would be good in his
line during the summer months and
autumn for the very reason set forth
by DIR. Emerson. He said that the
people cannot be too cautious about
their health.
The Health Department will be ever
on the alert during the summer
months. Disease will not be allowed
to breed if it can be helped. The au-
thorities will continue careful regula-
tons against any chance of epidemic
and will be doubly careful as regards
the chance of the introduction of dis
ease from abroad.
But in spite of all the groans of the
Doctors, The Star has no fear Homo
lulu is a healthy place.

Mongolian cunning and Caucasian wari-

a Chinese convict was in durance vile
in the big prison in the Illinois city. Wong
Lee had pilfrred and smiled and pilfered
and smiled until one morning the effect
was removed, for Wong Lee was caught in
the act of pilfering, and ho smiled no
more.
He was lodged at Joliet and taught the
lock step and II few other accomplishments
tor which there is special training in that
tity. He showed marked disinclination

Wong Lees industry knew no abate-

a stranger with bushy black whiskers sig
mailing him to let him pass out.
Want to get out?" said the guard, pro-
ducing ono of his big keys.
The stranger with the bushy whiskers
made no reply, but nodded and smiled
atTahly.
The guard put the big key into the lock
and looked curiously at the visitor. There
was something familiar about that wide
smile. He could not remember where he
had seen it, but prudence asserted itself

Italy Will Send Warship to Port 'au-
Prince to Force Her Demands.
New York, Dec. 14.-A dispatch to
the Herald from Port au- Prince says :
More trouble of kind similar to the
recent Leuders affair threatens Hayti,
and Port-au Prince may have to face
another menace of bcmbardment
Italy has long had claims against
Hayti, and these, If is alleged, have
never been settled. One claim which
has been pending since 1898 was the
case of a merchant at Port de Paix,
whose vessel and cargo, worth 0,000
were, it Is alleged, illegally seized and
sold by the Haytian government. The
other case was that of an Italian fish
erman sssassinated here last October
the man who was accused of commit
ting the crime having not been
brought to justice yet. Italy, 1t is
reported, intends to push the settle
ment of these claims at once, and ru-
mors have reached here that an
Italian warship is being sent here to
back up the demands.
The new ministry is looked upon
favorably, and it is thought the Presi-
dents proclamation will have a good
effect IN quieting the people, who have
been threatening an uprising If the
late ministry surrendered \ to Ger.

of Penitentiary Committee.

Atlanta, Dec. 14.-J. Pope Brown
has written letter in reply to q COM
munication from a committee of the
citizens of Hawkinsville and Pulaski
county, urging him to become a can
didate for the governorship.
In reply, Mr.. Brown states that,
after due consideration, he has decided
to decline to enter the race. He
thanks the people of the county for
the honor conferred, and sets forth
reasons for his not entering the race.
The senate took up the convict bill
this afternoon and hammered away on
it till late tonight, finally completing
it. The bill goes back to the house
with several important changes which
will cause fight with that body. The
most important is that which pro-
hibits conYicts working on turpentIne
farms, saw mills, etc, which was
urged by south Georgia.
The senators had big fight over the
resolution to pay the per diem of
members of the penitentiary commit
tee during their meeting last Septem-
ber. They finally passed it, though
with strong opposition.
Senator Turner's bill to exempt
chnrch and educational property from;
taxation (meaning endowments) was
lost in the house. The house got mad
at the steering committee because it
seemed that many local bills had been
sidetracked by it, and this afternoon a
fight was made on it SO successfully
that it was completely ignored.
A smallpox scare was caused in the
house, and caused the passage of a
resolution excluding all visitors from
the floor. 1t was reported that man
with smallpox had been taken out OF
the house and sent to the pest house
this morning. This caused a sensa-
tion and passage of the resolution.

Jury at Last Secured, and the Opening Ad-
dresses by Lawyers Begun.
Chicago, Dec. 14.-After two weeks
spent in securing jury, the second
trial of Adolph L. Luetgert, the burly
sausage manufacturer, commenced be-
fore Judge Gray today. The court
room was crowded when the case was
called. Every available seat was ta-
ken, while scores of curious men and
women stood in rows behind the rail-
ing, anxious to hear the proceedings.
The prosecution, as in the formal
trial, is represented by States Attor-
ney Deneen and Assistant States At
torney McEwin, while Luetgert had
at his side his defenders Attorneys
Harmon, Reise and Kehoe.
Assistant States Attorney Melvin
made the opening address for the
state. His speech, which occupied the
greater part of the session. did not de-
vlste much from the line he pursued IN
his address at the opening of the for
mer trial.
Lawyer Harmon, for the defense,
spoke late this afternoon. He refer
red at some length, to his alibi evil
dence without, however, committing
himself to names or places.

and gave the defendant the benefit of
the doubt. AS Mr. Wright was going
out of the court room, rejoicing in bis
acquittal, he was again arrested. to
snswer another charge-carrying con-
cealed weapons.
There were two more burglary cases
on the docket-both against the same
man-Gilbert Williams, a negro who
has very unsavory reputation, hav-
ing just been graduated from q course
of penal servitude. He was charged
with burglarizIng the house of negro
first, and, afterwards, the Office of Mr..
John H. Mccullough. In both in
stances clothing was taken, and the
defendant wore in the courtroom the
pair of pants belonging to Mr.. NAL
colin Mccullough and taken from the
office.
This was rather a difficult case for a
newly-qualified young attorney to
tackle in his first appearance at the
bar, but Judge Sweat appointed Mr..
James Il. Colson, with the assistance
Of Col. A. D. Gale, to try and explain
satisfactorily to the jury how the
negro got Malcolm McCullough's
trousers without atealing them.
The young lawyers fought valiantly,
but the odds were against them. The
jury brought in verdict of guilty in
the case of the burglarizing of the
negro's house. Judge Sweat will de-
clde this morning whether the second
case against Williams will be tried.
The criminal docket will be resumed
this morning.
