SABINE PASS
Swept away by the Storm Field-
The town of Sabine Pass, in ■ Jef
ferson county, Texas, was destroyed
by a hurricane last Tuesday. The
water began to invade the town
from the*pulf and laka together
about two o’clock Thura Jay evening,
and rose with -unprecedented rapid
ity. The citizens of the doomed
place did notrealize the imminent
danger until it was too late to es
cape.
When safety by flight was recog
nized as being out of the question
the people who were situated so
they could do so betook themselve-
to the houses and other fresorts
which they judged to be safe. The
water kept rising, and between
three and four o’clock the smaller
houses began to yield to the re
sistless force of the waves, which
not only moved them from their
foundations, but turned them over
on their sides and tops. A little later
larger houses began to give way,
a d death by drowning seemed in
store for every person in the place.
With the yielding of the smaller
houses several persons, who had
rcmi'ined in them, were drowned,
and when residences and busines.-
places began to crumble the fatal
ity began to double.
The death list comprises over
fifty human victims of the storm,
: m ing them some of the leading
families of the place. There ai<
others, and many of them, doubtless
drowned without any one living
knowing anything of it. It is fear
ed that whole families in different
places have been swept away with
out leaving a vestige of their fate.
It is said that the situation during
the latter part of the afternooi
beggared description.
The village of Sabine Pass li< s
only four feet above the mean tidi
mark, and is bounded by great
swamps on the west and Lal.t
Sabine on tlie uorth.lt was thb
lake, according to the most experi
enced navigators on this coast, that
destroyed the towu. The hurricam
of last Sunday in the West Indies
blew the waters with great
violence towards the Texas
coast. The hurricane wave was first
noticed on this court on Sunday
morning, attaining its maximum on
Thursday afternoon and was main
tained at a high point by the im
petus of the waters behind. The
hurricane itself did not reach tin
coast at all, as scarcely a breatli of
w'ind was blowing when the title
wave first touched this coast. Win-
its maximum was reached on Tui >
esday afternoon, however, a tierce
north-western gale sprung upalon
the wh»le coast and at Sabine t!
gale blew the .valors out of Lukt
Sabine and drovothem towards t!
Gulf, where the lake waters wort
met by the great swell caused I
the hurricane. This resulted :
drivinr the lake waters over on
the little town, submerging tin-
country for ten miles around
without a moment’s notice.
A dispatch from St. Peteisbur;
says the Czar, while discussing tin
recent Bulgarian crisis, said: ‘-If
the Bulgarian question can be si t.
tied peacably, well and good; tail
I will not go to war for the sake
disorderly Bulgarians."
Georgia hel 1 her State election
Oct. (ith and as usual rolled u|
a big Democratic majority. There
was no opposi’ion to the State tick
et headed by Geu. Goidon. There
were some sharp contests, however,
in several legislative districts. There
will be one Republican in the Sen
ate and four in tne House. It is stat
ed that there will not be more than
fifteen Anti-Prohibitionists in the
entire legislature.

Mr. George Powell is doing a good
business at the Station.
Dr. L. M. McGhee is doing a lu

our best physicians.
Mr. Milum Coggins has a fine
farm just above the Station, a nice
carp pond and is erecting a beauti
ful dwelling.
I was sorry to learn that Mrs.
John F. Cook was quite sick.
1 spent a pleasant night with Mr.
J. L. Attaway and family. Mr.
Attaway is one of the best farmers
in Cedar Creek District and a clev
er man all over. His mother is
living with him and is the oldest
person in the district. She is in her
8f> year, is as stought as a sixteen-
year-old girl and beats a heap of
them knitting and washing dishes
and many other things.
Mr. Sion Condor is a push ahead
man and is doing a big business
with his steam gin and grist mill
near Carroll’s camp ground.
I halted at my Corporal’s house
(John Avery) and l -uud him and
Sallie pulling cotton out with a
rush, but soon Sallie went to the
house, killed a chicken, made cus
tards, baked a cake and got me be
hind a good dinner.
1 found G. E. Cranford and
J. Hanson at their steam gin just
moving ahead. They are doing
well with their gin. 1 si>ent the
night with Mr. Hanson and family.
Thankful for their kind treat
ment.
Next morning I mounted, halting
at Mr. Hauliinan’s gin; found him
like the rest of the ginners, doing
all he could. He is a very intelli
gent geutleman.
T called on Hon. J. C. Mixon, whom
I found suffering considerably from
a bill he recioved while trauiing a
house. The scaffolding give way
and he fell about 15 feet across the
sleepers in the house. He was bad
ly bruised, but no bones were brok
en .
I found Mr. Park E. Arnold in the
potato patch superintending the
digging of his potatoes. Mr. Arnold
is one of the largest planters Jin our
county and raises large crops of ev
erything. He is the largest man I
expect in our county and is quite
active.
I took dinner with R. B. Jones,
who Is a whole-soul Primitive Bap
tist.
I ran upon several candidates and
everyone told his business without
being asked—every one was needy.
I don’t know whether we will feel
as needy after the election.
I expect some will feel kinder
badly. I have been voting 35
years for others and have elect
ed every fellow I voted for with few
exceptions, and they would have
been elected if they had gotten
enough votes. I l ave whooped
and hallowed hurah for this fellow
and that one until I have broken
down my general constitution,lungs
worn out, boils on my liver, pains
in my back, knees weak, footsteps
feeble,—all for what I have done
for others. Now what will you do
for RirPLES ?

For the care of Neuralgia, Rheuma
tism, Toothache, Sprains, Burns, Stiff
Joints, Bunions, Contraction of the

no equal.
The money will be returned to any
one not satisfied after using a bottle of

remedy in the treatment of all diseases
in Hones; where liniments are used,
such as Galls, Sprains, Bruises, Cracked
Heels, Windgalls Sweeney, Fistula,
Scratches, etc., etc. Price 25c. and 50c.

Dr. Hunnicutt says:
“I have used the Turkish Liniment
constantly for the la*t ten years, and
unhesitatingly pronounce it the best
Liniment I nave ever seen.* 1
BLOOD TONIC
This great Blood Purifier was not
learned from a race of naked savages-
Tt is no “Indian Medicine,” but a scien
tific preparation, carefully compounded
from the very best Blood*Tonics known
to the Medical Profession; nor is its
claim lo public confidence based on the
wild incantations of wanderiug Gyp
sies, or the senseless mumblings of an
Indian squaw. It stands upon the ac
cumulated wisdom and research of nine
teen centuries. Since Moses proclaimed
that “The blood is the life,” the Medical
Profession, in all enlightened countries,
has studied, carefully, patiently and
laboriously the composition of the Blood,
its tendencies to disease, and the med
icines that make and keep it pure. The
Blood Tonic is no secret coin pound. Any
physician can see the formula. We on
ly claim for it the best known Blood
medicines carefully and scientifically
combined. For more than a quarter of
a century we have prescribed it with
the most satisfactory results, and if
space permitted could furnish thous
ands of testimonials. In the treatment
of Secondary Syphilis, Chronic Rheu
matism, Scrofula, Pimples, Old Sores.
Catarrh in the Head, Eczema, and all
impurities of the Blood, from whatever
cause arising, the Medical Profession
has never found a better medicine than
the Blood Tonic,
A UNIVERSAL NEED.
Nothing is more universally needed
than a safe and perfectly reliable Ver
mifuge—one that wiil never fail to ex
pel every worm. This is a universal
need, because all children are liable to
have worms. These loathsome para
sites are not confined to any class. Thoy
have no-respect for wealth or position-
infesting alike the children of the Presi
dent and the dirty urchins of the Afri
can pauper.
The suffering and deaths they produce
are incalculable. Thousands ef chil
dren suffer through days and months,
and are dosed with all kinds of “drops”
Hud soothing syrnps to no purpose. The
■ nstant irritation kept up by wort
; oduces disorder and derangement
l i e entire digestive apparatus, making
t! - child fretful and irritable, and some-
using fits.

and can say (as well as our customers >
that your Worm Oil is more effectual
than anything we have ever sold.

the first dose brought forty worms, and
the Becond dose so many were passed 1
did not count them. S. H. Adams.
Athens, Ga.
A few nights since I gave my son one
dose of Worm Oil, and the next day ho
passeef sixteen large worms. At the
same time I gave one dose to my little
girl four years old, and she passed
eighty-six worms, from four to fifteen
inches long. W. F. Phillips.
Athens, Ga.
The Worm Oil is perfectly harmless
and will remove every worm, when giv
en according to directions. It costs on
ly 25 cents. It is worth that much to
feel assured that yonr child is not
wormy.

ORIGINATOR OF ROCK BOTTOM PRICES IN NE WNAN,
Presents to the public a Dry Goods stock that has never before
been equalled in this section of the country, his house is loaded
with goods and the great variety of styles a most inteiesting sight
to behold. His trip to the Eastern Markets resulted in a perfect
success. Never beiore has he been so fortunate in meeting up
with such bargains. >
Competition will Tremble at my
Prices.
Thousands of Dollars worth of Job Lots and Drummers Samples which he
picked up at less than half value will be offered at a small advance, and ail my
woolen goods I bought before the recent advance of 20 per cent, which ray trade
shall have the benefit of.
To describe my Dres- Goods Stock would only be a waste of time but
NOTICE THE TERRIBLE DESTRUCTION OF PRICES
On them that space permits to quote: 5,099 yds Brocaded Dress Goods'at 5c, 5 000

For many years I havf experimented every wav possible to sell goods for less
money than my competitors, but before reaching the object in view I had to re
sort to three int| ortant principles:
(1) To buy goods at the proper place.
(2) To buy goods at the proper time
(3) And to buy goods in proper quantities.
Now note the effect: 500 Honey Comb Bod Quilts at 35e worth 75c. 200 Honey

A Letter from Judge
C. D. McCutcheon.
Dalton, Ga., March 15, 1885
In January, 1S76, I contracted
a very severe cough that lasted
for weeks, and finally became ac
companied with a pain in my
side. I could get no relief ex
cept from Calomel, hut when I
would cease to use the Calomel
the cough and pain would ie!u:n.
Thus it went on for some time,
whenl was advised to try Smith’s
Liver Tonic. I did so, and it soon
effected a permanent cure, and
the sympto s have never return
ed. Since that time l have i r-nt
this Liver Tonic on hand, nevei I
