THE WEEKLY CONSTITUTION. ATLANTA. GA.. TUESDAY. AUGUST 80.1887. 11 DR. W. J, TUCKER, No. 9 Marietta Street, Atlanta, Ga. HE ms GREATLY IISTAKE’N A Maryland Chemist Reckoned Without His Host. I live In the mldat of the malarial districts of Maryland, near the city of Washington, and am exposed to all the dangerous In fluences of the impure air and water of that reglolj. Being naturally of a strong constitution, I had frequently boasted that no chills and fever or other malarious complaint would aver trouble me. This was my experience and the condl tkra fn which I found myself six months ago. I first noticed that I did not feel so sprightly and vigorous as was my wont to do. I felt tired and enervated. Soon I noticed a distinct and distressing back ache would make Its appearance in the afternoon, increasing In severity If the exercise was morq than usually violent Then a stretchy feeling with profuse gaping made Its appear ance. Then my head, always clear as a hell, would feel heavy and I began to have headaches. The cold stage was marked with chatter ing ef*the teeth, severe rigors passed over me, and no amount of clothing could keep me warm. The chill was succeeded In turn by the'fever, In which I seemed to bo burn ing np, the congestion in my head produced a violent pain in the frontal portion and a heated sensation of the eyelids, with an in describable aching of the lower limbs. Kauseau and vomiting occurred with severe retchings, and when the paroxysmJ passed off I was thoroughly prostrated by a weak ness that was felt In every part of me. I drugged ynyself with quinine, and ob tained seme relief. But my recite was of brief duration, i was now so much reduced that I could hordly-wolk or stand uprightj Jfy disease soon'culminated in a continued malarial fever which kept me closely con, lined for about a week. I became exceed ingly depressed and melancholy, so much so that I lost Interest in my work, and, Indeed, scarcely cared what happened to me. During all this time, it must be under stood that I did not neglect medical treatment. All the most powerful remedies were tried, such as liquid arsenate of potash, .^ralerianto of Iron, mercury, bromlda of ” potassium, chloride of bismuth, chlnlodine, chinchonldla, quinine and leveral others. All this I did under the advice of eminent physicians. It was while I was in this deplorable con dition that the claims made for Kasklne, the new quinine, as a specific for malaria were first brought to my attention. I knew nothing of Its value to justify my having smy confidence In it, but as everything else had failed I deemed it my duty to try it, so I began Its use, and Its prompt ^id radical effects were of the nature of a revelation to me. Many people may think tho statement scarcely credible, but It is a fact that after Only a few days’ use of Kasklne all the leading symptoms in my case were decidedly abated or ceased altogether; and In a few weeks from the time I took the first dote I was cured. 1 This was about the first of January, and since then I have experienced no recurrence of the malarial symptoms In any form. A remedy of such exceptional virtue for the cure of malaria ought to be commended and universally made known. I have therefore urged It upon the'attention of my friends, several of whom have used it with like good lesulta In every cate, and It la with the greatest pleasure and sincerity that I com' mend Kasklne to sufferers from malaria everywhere.

Tom Woolfolk, the Bibb county n«aa*sln, made an oxbibltidff of feeling over the whole sale slaughter of his family yesterday for the first time since his arrest. A photograph of tho dead peoplo produced the display. Before the dead bodies were removed from the house or even the position in which they were found was disturbed, an enterprising photographer of Macon reached the residence with camera and chemicale And photographed the scene. The dead bodies were Annul in two rooms and the interior of these rooms to gether with the bloody an yet red with tho Ms onfrent of tho nine people were placed Indeli bly upon tlie glass plate from which prints can forever be made. The negative was'freely used by the photographer and in a short time the central city was Hooded with photographs of tho bloody sceno.

Both rooms ana the ax were printed upon one large board, Tho room In which tile six bodies were found occupied the top half of the card, whilo the room in which the three were found came di rectly under it. The ax with which the work was done occupied a corner and from its isolat ed position looked all the more bloody and horrible. Dark irregular splotches scattered over the picture told to6 phi where the blood and brains of the victims settled. Even upon the paper could be seen the marks and cuts Upon the prisoner’s kins man made by the bloody ox, Only tl # •* * than the, „— D —_ — Soon after tho photograph was received at Tub Coxstitution office, the city editor placed it in the hands of a reporter with In structions to go into the jail and show it to Woolfolk. The jail was quickly reached and to Jailer Poole a request was made to see the prisoner. At the main entrance Jailor Fool halted long enough to call up Singleton Meeks, a tall, fine looking young moonsliinor, from Haber sham county. To Meeks the jailer gave the photograph, with instructions to show it to Woolfolk. Meeks took the picture, and look ing at it a second, shuddered. Then hepusli- ed his way to the cell occupied by Woolfolk. He was closely followed by the man of news. At the cell door they halted. The reporter pushed forward and asked: “How do you feel. Woolfolk?” . The prisoner declined to answer and looked from the reporter to the ceiling above. “Areyonjrtll?” An upward turn of the nose was an answer. “Say, Wbolfolk," sAid Meeks, the moon shiner, “(^yonknowthii?” 4 l Ashe spoke tho moonrbincr held tlio photo graph in ramtol -tlie prisoner’s loco.

Macox, Ga., August 21.—[Special.}—Yet- tenlay Mr. durables* decided to clean oat tho well on tho ’Woolfolk place, tho residence of tho late Captain Woolfolk who was so brutally murdered with hia family on the morning of August 6th. After going down pretty .deep tho hands found a pair of socks, ail blood stained, which were identified as the socks commonly worn by Tom Woolfolk.

Possibly no article of apparently as small in terest was ever as widely circulated and copied as the column account given by Colonel E. W. Hammond,the worthy ordinary of this county, of a small calamus patch on the farm of a Fay ette county gentleman, which was published in the News abont the first of last month. 553 As we arrivtd In the Flint river bottoms, an unexpected and unrealized amount of damage was eeen to have been done to crops by the re cent prolonged wet season. Foe wide distances on each side of the river, in places where the banks were low, the water had overflowed and remaining on tho bottoms for several days had effectually rained tbe ootton and com crons. Towasd evening, coming to where the cala mus farm should be, a strange scene visited our eye and caused Colonel Hammond to pause and think for an instant that he had’lost his way. The road, which passed along tliesiver soon beneath what we now perceived to be a swift dewing current, and we' atopped, not knowing what to do. Just then Colonel Ham mond perceived a man sitting on a stump with his feet in the water and Ids chin in his hand, and as he turned his head, Mr. Hammond sow that it was Adam Story, the proprietor of the calamus farm. “Hello, my friend, where are we? Isn’t this the way to your farm?” asked Colonel Hara- “ You are in the middle of the river, and the calamus farm is right underneath your feet,” was (lie dejected reply, in a melancholly tone Glancing around ns we saw that what he said was so.

The Late Rector of St. Philip’s Dies in Sewanee. HIS PASTORATE IN THIS CITY Nashville, August 20.—Bt. Rev. R. W. B.

Hit friends feeling that he could not bear the mental strain of regular pastoral duties where he was required to proaoli two sermons a day, put -nds together to find for him a po sition it.uuii' would not bo so dying and which would not demand such mental exertion. The suggestion wss mado that he be elevated to a bishopric. When it was decided, to 1674, that the dto- eere of Texas should be divided to order to relieve tbe great burden rating on tha thoeldors of Bishop Gregg, Rev. Robert W. B.
