Champion Captured.
Will Champion, who has been
wanted for several years for
’’moonshining” was captured
Sunday morning in Dawson
county in a barn by Messrs. Pen
and Curtis. This man has
evaded the law and has dodged
the officers for years. But when
Ben 'and of this place and Curtis,
of Canton, had orders from the
proper authorities, to go and'
stay in the neighborhood until;
they succeeded, they landed him;
safe and sound and left him in ;
Jasper jail. Champion was lying] atj
with an automatic-shot gun
his head and a dangerous knife j
within reach sticking in the wall,
of the barn. But the officers I
had their guns on him before he
discovered them.—The EHijay
Times.
Don't Be a ’’Grouch”
Many persons acquire a reputation
for crankidess and grouchiness when
their dispositions are not to blame.
Peevishness, irritation, morbidness,
biliousness, melancholia most often are
the result of impaired digestion and
