SAD MORTAL
FIND MADE:
lncurably Diseased Nan
Dies OF Starvation
In a Jungle.

One of the most CHASTITY objects ever
seen in the Honolulu morgue was taken
there yesterday afternoon Insured TO
repulsive examples Of human mortality
as long familiarity might have made
him, Dr. Mcdonald was quite sick
ened at having to deal with this par
ticular subject. It was pathetic case
in the extreme when the facts became
known
An aged Hawaiian man. afflicted
with 8 loathson1e and incurable dis
ease, had long concealed himself from
the public health authorities. When
he could no longer hide in that regard
without getting his kindred or friends
into trouble. the poor man fed from
the society of mankind and sought COW
ert and sustenance in the iungles of
the foothills back of Honolulu.
The vegetable product of the wilder
ness failed him, while the elements
no doubt steadily whipped away his
vital resistance. Probably wandering
and exposure reduced him to such
frailty that he could at last make lit
tie effort, anyway, to reach out and
grasp any coarse viands that nature
might have put within his reach. His
body was found in thicket above Ma
kiki. Its appearance gave evidence
that death was the result of starvation
more Immediately than that of dis
ease.

THE WORRIED WOMEN.

They say men must work and
women must weep; but alas, in
this too busy world women often
have to work and weep at the
same time. Their holidays are
too few and their work heavy
and monotonous. 1t makes them
nervous and irritable. The de-
pressed and worried woman loses
her appetite and grows thin and
feeble. Once in a while she has
spells of palpitation and has TO
lie up for day or two. If some
disease like influenza or malarial
fever happens to prevail she is
almost certain to have an attack
of it, and that often paves the
way for chronic troubles of the
throat, lungs and other organs;
and there is no saying what the
end may be. Let the tired and
overladen woman rest as much
as possible; and, above all, place
at her command a bottle of

TATTNALL C0UNTYS
NEW COURT HOUSE,
Visitors Were Interested in the
Handsome Structure.


Handsome Structure.
The people of Reidsville are proud of
their new Court House and they have
every reason to be.
Its location is ideal, standing as it
does upon the brow of a hill, and its
appearance from all four sides is strlk-
ingly handsome.
Although the Court House cost the
people of Tattnall county little over
$4,000 it has been estimated that un-
der the most suspicious circumstances
it could not be replaced for less than
$4,000. What the contractors and ma
terial men lost by bad judgment IN
bidding, and unfortunate circum-
gained by securing the handsomest
building of its kind in this section.
The officials and the lawyers who
have offices in the building could not
do too much for those who attended
the convention,j 1t mattered not
whether the visitor had voted for Mr..
Brannen or Col Lester he was treated
with the utmost consideration by the
uniformly courteous citizens of Reds
vile. w. T. Burkhalter. Esq, threw
his law offices open to the visitors and
did everything possible to make their
stay a pleasant one. Sheriff A. d
Smith, who was only recently a pa
tient in the Savannah Hospital, and
who has not yet entirely recovered
busted himself lib showing the visitors
through the Court House. The sub
stantial beauty of the structure APP
pealed to all of those who inspected It.
Equally as considerable and eager to
serve the strangers within his gate
was Editor George G. Folsom of the
Tattnall Journal Many of the visitors
visited Mr.. Folsoms newspaper office
and watched the press at work-An ac-
count of this novel and interesting
manner of printing a newspaper is
found elsewhere in the Morning News.
Col. ]. H. Estill of Savannah, the re-
firing chairman of the Democratic Ex-
ecutive Committee of the First con-
gressional district, was Editor Full
SONS guest during the day. The Court
House officers, decided upon at the last
primary, are as follows
Judge of Circuit Court-B. T. Rawl-
ings.
Circuit Court Solicitor-Alfred Her
rington.
Judge of City Court-C. H. Mann.
City Court Solicitor-H. H. Elders.
OTdinary-B. F. Alexander.

The primary election was spirited
and in a number of cases the contests
were extremely close. But the people
of Tattnall have laid their political diff
ferences aside until another election
time and are now working in harmony
to increase the Importance of the thrlv-
ing South Georgia county in the First

CAR NICHOLAS REVIEWS
10000 OF HIS TROOPS

st. Petersburg, May n.-Emperor
Nicholas, who was accompanied by the
Empress and several of the grand
dukes and. brilliant staff. reviewed
10000 troops on the Champ De Mars
this morning. A great concourse view
ed the brilliant spectacle. AS each reg
iment marched past the Emperor the
soldiers shouted. Good health, your
majesty" A grand charge of Cossacks
ended the review.
The day opened cold and dreary with
a chill in the air. which went to the
bones. The strange harmony of the
lowering clouds overhead with the news
from the theater of war seemed TO
weigh upon the fatalistic spirits of the
Russians, but this feeling of depres-
sion gave way to buoyancy as the re-
view progressed, and the sun broke
gloriously like a promise of better
things.
The imperial party was accorded a
hearty reception by the people. Seats
on balconies overlooking the review
ground sold for $25. The money will
be devoted to the Red Cross.

UP OR DOWN STREAM?
That Is the Fi.herman's Question.

1nnd IN the E1Shermans 6ueHtAOns
Edwyn Sandys in May Outing.
In f1yfishing, as in many other arts,
there are more ways than one for the
successful accomplishment of the OBJ
ject in view. l know experts who. If
allowed the choice. never would fish
other than upstream, explaining their
preference by the fact that the moving,
II not rapid, water is then less liable to
carry any sound of disturbed stones or
foot movement to the fish. This is
reasonable enough, and many fine fish
are killed in that way. Other anglers
scorn the idea of working against the
stream, and say, Avoid the disturb
ing of stones and other sounds. The
fish always lie with their noses up
stream and their eyes looking for what
the water brings down. Therefore, be
natural, and send the lure down, as the
real fly would come" This is sound
sense. for beyond question the more
naturally lure is presented the more
tempting it should prove hence the
reader might say the downstream
theory appeals to my judgment and
I'll follow it." That is all very well,
but suppose, when working either up
or down stream, a bend happens 20

WHAT LneH
So far as / know. there are few
things which will so thoroughly alarm
trout as the shadow of a man, or of
his arm and rod shifting over pool
When the complicated shadows of lot
Of breeze-stirred branches are playing
all over the surface. the addition of
few extra shadows may not greatly
matter: but those days are Compare
lively rare, and even then it would
seem that any unusually large shadow
would of necessity be noticed. This
suggests that upon the typical winding
stream, alternate sections of which
needs must trend toward widely apart
points on the compass, a man will have
considerable trouble to keep control
of his warning shadow. This Is best
accomplished by canny shifting from
side to side as occasion may demand,
and / believe this maneuver to be well
worth the slight trouble 1t involves. A
wise man never suffers a shadow of
his making to touch the water to be
fished.
And now in regard to bait-fishing-
that shockingly plebeian sport which
your bigoted flicker of humbugs deems
a CORY old crime. ] believe in scientific
bait-hshng for several reasons, chief
of which is its likelihood to catch fish,
and the biggest and bulliest fish there
be. l don't mean a whole lot of fish,
but say a couple.

Washington, May 1.-the State De-

an official protest to the Russian gov
eminent against the latest utterances
of M. Pavlof. late Russian minister
to Korea. relative to the conduct OF
the officers of the United States steam
ship Vicksburg, in connection with the
succoring of survivors of the Varias
and Korietz. Naval officers here have
shown considerable feeling over the
criticisms as affecting the honor of
the United State, Navy, and are de-
sirous of having an inquiry made as
to why these statements were given
publication In the official Messenger,
thus stamping them as official. The
state Department officials, however,
are disposed to ignore the incident, one
of them explaining that M. Paviof' 5

he has suffered, in being expelled from

More lies have been told about fly

Yes. a fly with the hook tipped with
a worm. An anglers pleasure is to
find out what the trout will take and
then supply them. 1t 1t is a fly, we'll

H. s. White. Esq, of Sylvania, said
that Screven county desired to say a
few words for Brannen: to place it's
mite into the cup that was already
overlooking with praise of the brilliant
young leader. He did not desire to
detract an iota from Col. Lester. He
