of these eases have shown uninistakabii
signs of Russian infiu n/.a, and souk* ot

ones. The ’ Grippe," i- officially ignored
at the sanitary headquarters in New York
City. Unofficially, the reprt K' litatives of
the health department -ay that probably
■>0,000 people in New York are suffering
from more or less severe atta< ks of infin
euza, but they refuse to give it official
recognition. The disease seems to have
found a goodly number of victims among
the employes of the New York postoftice.
Saturday's absentees in the general office
numbered sixty-five, and in many instan¬
ces persons on the sick li-t were letter

The recent mortality in Paris, from the
ravages of the influenza, is a< follows:
Wednesday, 318; Thur-alay, 303: Friday,
344. The sudden drop from the figures
of Thursday- to those of Friday is taken as
an evidence that the dreaded epidemic is.
on tlie wane.
A prominent physician of Philadelphia
says: “There are fully 25,000 persons now
in this city being treated for influenza in
some form or other. All classes of citi¬
zens are numbered among its victims, and
some of the leading business men of the
city have been compelled to absent them¬
selves from their places of business on ac¬
count of the grippe.”
The disease has also made its appear¬
ance in Detroit, Boston, Baltimore, New
Brunswick, N. J., and Kansas City. At
Detroit over five thousand are down with
the disease. Fifty policemen, more than
half the city's officers and their assistants,
are laid up, and there is hardly a store or
factory in the city whose clerical and
working force is not seriously crippled.
DIAGNOSIS OF THE INFLEENZA.
The Medical News, of Philadelphia, says
Influenza comes suddenly: goes as quick;
least robust at any age and'women seem
to be its first victims. It is here a ques
tion of condition not of sex. The large
numbers simultaneously attacked attracts
general attention and thus those most im
pressionable are seized, the onset living
facilitated by any depressing emotion, like
fear or illness. There is no rigor, prop
erlv to be thus designated, but rather a
series of chills and a feeling of heat there
with, sometimes malaise of a general kind
is experienced, but, lik - rhe at: ick itself.

hours. AYith the first access of nasal and
facial irritation, come a chilliness, which
is followed by some feverishness with
more headache, pronounced malaise, and in a gen
eral weakness and soreness of
the members, and especially of the larger
joints. AYith the progress of the'ease in
some epidemic, there is considerable gen
eral weakness, even a marked depression
of the vital powers. The pulse becomes
small, and the mind gloomy and rest
lessness ensues. When a fatal termina¬
tion is to occur, as a rule, an extension
downward into the trachea and bronchi
takes place.

Ib lTernan. a prominent young merchant
and brave, public spirited citizen, was
shut down and killed in Barnewall by
negroes. Public indignation ran very
high. Threat - of lynching were lreely
made. bill diverted by cooler counsel. On
the tilth of December. Mr. James S.
Brown, a prominent planter and leading
citizen of Fish Pond township, was shot
to death on his own premises by negroes,
without the slightest justification or ex¬
cuse. On the 18th ot December, while
going from his store, at Martin’s
Station, to his. house, a mile
away. Mr. Robert Martin, a young
man of exemplary character and of the
highest standing as a man and citizen,
was followed by a negro and s!» it
in tlie back with a gun loaded with
slugs, lug-lit men w ere arrested and held
as the murderer^ and accessories, and
lodged m the Barnwell jail. Ai the last
term of court, the grand jury found true
bills against the murderers and against tlie
fiie accessories, but the cases were continued,
white people were disappointed,
and fearing that justice might be
defeated, took the law into their own
hands. On Saturday morning a body of
masked men visited the jail, overpowered
the jailer, secured the prisoners, and
marching them to the outskirts of the
town, hung them to trees and riddled
their bodies with bullets. None of the
lynchers have a yet been apprehended.

much upon good or bad digestion

flushed face hailed an officer in front of
the City Hall the other day and stated
that he had been robbed.
“When and where?” naturally in¬
quired the officer.
“Out ou the exposition grounds this
forenoon.”
“How much ?”
“Well, as near as I can figure it,there
was about forty cents in the portmon

■ A Man of Mark.
. Prince Mailetunka, of the Friendly
Islands, in the Pacific Ocean, is, by all
accounts, the most elaborately decorated
potentate in the world. His body is
tattooed from top to toe, and bears over
13,000 different signs and emblems ou
its surface.
Although hitherto unknown to fame,
either as a warrior or diplomat, the
hereditary ruler of the Friendly group
must be admitted to be a man of mark.
His only rival, as far as history records
it, is the Hon. Phineas T. BarnumA
once widely renowned star attraction,
the Tattooed Greek. And the Tattooed
Greek was only a pirate, not a prince.
