It is thought that the chief sub-contract
ors of the Alabama Midland will lose
about four thousand dollars on the work
at the Evans’ cut. There is only one other

live feet deep and six hundred feet in
length.—Troy Enquirer.
A very touching incident occurred on
the streets of Montgomery yesterday. Soon
after the news spread over the city that
the chieftain of the Confederacy was dead,
an Irishman, one of a race of people noted
for their patriotism, courage and honesty,
was passing along when he heard a negro
make use of the odious remark: “Jeff
Davis, the old traitor, is dead.” He had
hardly uttered the incendiary words when
the Irishman made a break for him. “D—n
you ! exclaimed the Irishman, as he began
striking at the negro, who began dodging
the heavy blows, “D—n you!” he repeated,
with his hot blood boiliDg and his true
Irish heart full of patriotism and love for
the old chieftain, I’ll tache yer how to
spake of the honest dead. I’ll split yer
wide open from the top of yer blarsted
head to the sole of yer foot,” and he was
only restrained from putting his threat
into execution by the timely interference
of some white men who happened to be
passing along. For genuine love of country
and honest patriotism, the Irish race is
without equal on earth.—Montgomery
Journal.

ot Doing
To my customers, friends and the public: From
this time on, until further notice, I can be f.iund
at my office on First avenne, Telephone 1 5.
Prompt information given to all inquiries con
eerning my drays, and by putting them in ebarg
of a reliable cierk, I will be able to fill all orders
promptly, or let parties know exactly what to
depend on. Whenever my customers or any one
has such work as requires my personal attention,
3neh as moving iron safes, pianos and ail heavy
machinery, all of which I make a specialty, guar
anteeing to handle same without breakage or
in ury, I-ehall always find time to give my atten
tion to such work, or any business of any natnre
which parties wish me to atlend to. In so run
ning my business I am confident that I can give
my customers better services than heretofore
;hali by all means keep my drays up to the best
standard, good teams and dray3, good and care
ful hands, as this is my main business, which I
don't propose to let run down.
Inasmuch as I am at my stab’es I shall take
charge of same, and give alt board and sale stock
my personal attention. With the help of a per
fectly reliable white feeder, I intend to make

being able to give board stock better attention
than I could otherwise.
I will keep on hand gentle driving and saddle
horses for ladies, gentlemen and children; also a
g9od drummers’ team; all of which can be fur
nished on short notice, night or day, except
Sundays. I shall also keep on hand some good

an for then: patronage in the past, I ask fora
ontmimnce of the same, as my efforts to please
and give satisfaction may warrant. Respectfully,

KNOCKED OUT !
S. S. S. has never failed to ‘ knock out” Blood Poison, Scrof
ula, Blood Humors and Rheumatism from the System.
“I am now twenty-eight years old, and from the time I was seven years of age until 1885 I suf
fered with a severe case of scrofula. During that time I took every known remedy, but to no pur
pose. My father took me to North Carolina, where I was pnt under the treatment of an eminent
physician. The medicines given me had only a temporary effect, for shortly after my return the
scrofula broke out in a more malignant form and I was worse off than ever before. In 1885 I dis-
cont nued taking all other mqduines and commenced taking Swift’s Specific (S. S. S.) I took a
number of bottles and it cured me. I have been free from scrofula from that time until now.”
T. A. SIZEMORE, Piedmont, S. C.
“I have use d Swift’s Specific (S. S S.) for blood diseases, and in every instance with the best
results. About twenty-five years ago I had my leg hurt in an accident, and the wound never entirely
healed. I tried various remedies without success. I was finally induced to try S. S. S. That medi
cine healed it up—healed it afeer twenty-five years of suffering had been endured and much money
had been thrown away in the purchase of wor hless medicines.” G. W. WELCH, Mobile, Ala.

Gentlemen: Last April I
took yellow jaundice, which
lasted me six months. During
that time I was not fit for work.
I took all sorts of remedies
and consulted two doctors, but
neither seemed to give me re
lief. I also had rheumatism,
was hardly able to turn in bed,
when, hearing of what won
derful cures W. W. C. was
making, I decided to try it on
my case of jaundice and rheu
matism, and am happy to say
that two bottles cured me. It
worked like magic in my case.
I am entirely well now and feel
better than I have for many years.
I believe W. W. C. to be the best
fair ijy medicine on the market to
day. Yours very gratefully,
A. J. COKER.
