There was no one at the house at the time of the killing but a small negro child and the above mentioned negroes. It seems that Thomas had retired for the night and was asleep when Baisdon, ( procuring a rope and making a running noose, put it around Thomas’ neck, and by choking and blows over the head with a hoe handle, succeed ed in killing the old man. When the alarm was given, Baisdon stated the old man had died with colic, but the coroner’s jury had evidence sufficient to justify them in ren dering a verdict of murder at the hands of Baisdon. AI ill)Hum. A curiosity in the shape of a full-grown white buzzard has been seen frequently of late on Capt. Troup Randall’s prairie plan tation near Union Springs. The bird is perfectly while all over. The captain has given strict orders to bis tenants that it shall not be killed.

Sold by Brannon & Carson. eoddiw Why llluliie was llniten. Chicago Herald. . . “Are there any full-bearded men on the municipal ticket this fall?” asked u Fifth avenue barber as he ran his razor over the chin of a customer. “1 couldn’t say,” replied the man in the chair. “But why do you ask ?” “Oh, because if there are you can bet they’re going to be out.” “By the barber?” “The same.” “But how ?” “Same way we cut Blaine in 1884. He wore a full beard, and we (the barbcrsl voted against him at the polls. That’s why he lost. There are 12,OCX) barbers in New York state, and if Blaine had not had a full beard he’d caught enough of their votes to have carried the state.” “But why do you cut candidates with full beards?” “Because it’s part of our creed to vote against men who never patronize our shops. See?” 1- rco Trade. The reduction of internal revenue and the taking off of revenue stamps from Pro- j prietary Medicines, no doubt has largely I benefited the consumers,as well ns relieving the,' burden of home manufacturers. Es pecially is this the case with Green’s Au gust Flower and Boschee’s German Syrup, as the reduction of thirty-six cents per dozen, has been added to increase the size of the bottles containing these remedies, thereby giving one-fifth more medicine in the 75 cents size., The August Flower for Dyspepsia and Liver Complaint, and the German Syrup for Cough and Lung trou bles, have perhaps, the largest sale of any medicines in the world. The advantage of increased size of the bottles will be greatly appreciated by the sick and afflicted, in every town and village in civilized coun tries. Sample bottles lor 10 cents remain the same size. octl2 d&wly AT THEIR & CO, New Stand. OUR MAGNIFICENT STOCK . —OF— Fall Millinery Now on Exhibition.

This cut is an illustration of Improved Iron Ncrew 4'olton l'l’CNN,” , erected in the most substantial and convenient manner. If is simple in construction, and ho well illustrated by tlie cut, that scarcely a word is needed by way of explanation. Being simply an , Iron Nrrew an<l IViil substituted for wood, tlie wood work of its construction, and the manner , of operating it, are substar stantially the same as in the old style of wooden plantation screw, but the timbt rs required are not so heavy or long. Most planters of experience prefer t he wooden screw to any of the more modern Cotton Presses in use, but the difficulty and uncertainty of controlling Libor and mechanical skill in the season of the year most convenient to the planter for their erec* I tion, usually renders it a matter of economy, as well as necessity, with him, to buy some kind of ; Press that requires but little mechanical skill to put it in operation. “(Joldeii'H Nerew,” is a sort of compromise between the old style of wooden screw and the modern Cotton Press, combining ! the principal advantages of the former with the convenience and economy of t he latter. It can be i operated with greater facility than the wooden screw, and the rapidity of its performance, like that [ of tlie wooden screw, or any other press, depends upon its management as on the old style screws j j some planters would pack ten bales, and others thirty or thirty-five hales per day. Any ordinary j j mechanic who can make a good plantation gate, or common plow stock, can do the wood work. Within tlie last eleven years we have made and sold a great many of these screws, and have yet J | to hear of the first one that has not given entire satisfaction.
