PECULIAR CASE.
Patient in Baltimore Hospital Puzzle
to PHYSICIANS,

Patient in Baltimore Hospital Puzzle
to Physicians.
Considerable concern has been OCCASION
ed the authorities Of the City Hospital Of
Baltimore, Md, by a patient in their
charge, about whose history they have as
yet been unable to secure anything def
mite. From papers found in the pockets OF
the patients clothing it is thought his
name is Lucius Mix, and that he was a
captain in the Union army during the civil
war. The address given on the papers is
New York city.
The unfortunate man was picked up on
the streets of Baltimore about month ago
in an unconscious condition. At the hos
pital his case was first diagnosed as alco-
holism, and later the patient developed de-
lirium tremens. While being treated for
the latter trouble he developed pneumonia
but finally recovered, so far as that ailment
Is concerned. Since the night he was found
by the police authorities, however, he has
never fully regained consciousness, and it
is not known whether or not he ever will
The hospital authorities believe that the
old man needs rest and quiet and constant
treatment. An effort will undoubtedly be
made. 1t is said, to have Capt. Mix removed
to Bayview or the United States hospital
here, unless some of the mans relatives
can be located. 1t is thought that he has
some relatives in both New York city and
in North Carolina.

one-third of a bale to the acre on the
black land and one-tenth to one-sev-

Only one week ago there seemed to be
surety of one-half to three-fourths
of a bale, but the boil worms and boil
wecylls both have done their best to
capture every square and every small
boil. OF course the city chap is going
to laugh at this sudden turn things
have taken, but it needs but ten to
twenty days at furthest to show him
the truth hereof, and the pushing
drummer will have the pleasure of
wondering where the money is to come
from to pay those large bills he has
sold; for cotton is our only money
crop, and no matter how much corn
and sugar cane are made, it will not
bring enough cash to buy stockings
for the babies during the winter. OF
course. where we have to buy we have
to pay exorbltant prices, but when we
have corn to sell the railroad and the
commission man get all there is in it,
There is no doubt about the cotton
crop being very seriously damaged.
