Frophitt's Liver Medicine, if taken properly, 1
will prevent and cure any disease resulting from
a deranged liver.
it will regulate its functions and thus cure all

It lias been used for a great number of years,
and has given universal satisfaction.

years. Doctors all agreed she bad “Liver Dis

agent here, C. A. Harvey, which being given ac
cording to directions, has affected a complete
cure. Respectfully, Ac., GEO. L. THOMAS.
CUarlottk, N. C., Sept. 24,1888.
I have used Dr. O. S, Frophitt’s Liver Medi
cine as a tonic, and found it to be powerful and
efficacious. It is excellent for functional de
rangement of the Liver or constipation of the
bow els; in most cases superceding the necessity
of a regular course of medicine.

PKOPIIITT’S
Pain Kill It.
This is the celebrated medicine that run Perry
Davis’rain Killer put of the market, wherever
it was sold. Davis made Prophitt change the
name from Pain Hiller to PAIN KILL IT.
For Neuralgia, or pain of any
kind it has no equal.
For (Juts, Bruises, Burns, or old Sores, it is the
best thing you can use as a dressing.
For Snake Kites or Stings of Poisonous Insects,
it is a perfect ANTIDOTE.
It is good for Colic. Colds, Coughs, or Bowel
Complaints. Its name indicates its nature fully.
It is truly DEATH to pain.

relieved me almost instantly. 1 therefore re

one of the liuest Family Medicines now out, cer

DR. O. S. PROPHITT:
I have, during the last eigetecn months, used
your Pain Kill It, and, 1 consider it unequaled by
anything for pain in the head, breast, back or

[From the Memphis A valanch.
Hi JTED DOIVY.
Thrilling Adventure of a I*etecs
ive in Starch of a Murderer.
About fourteen months ago h c<>ld
olotxlecl murder was committed in Coa
homa comity by Air. George Stacy.—
The Avalanche of that date gave a re
port, which our renders wifi doubtless
remember, Mr. Stacy killed u Mr.
Rilev in his own field, while lie was at
his work. Both planters, and. we
think, neighbors. They resided east
of Friar’a Point about ten miles. Sta
cy was arrested, indicted for murder,
gave bond for his appearance for trial,
ran away and left his bondsmen and
surety (Judge Harrison Reid) to pay
the bond. But the prisoner was not
to be found.
Judge Reid applied to all the police
officers and .sheriffs in Mississippi and
Arkansas. He applied to the detect
ives in Memphis, but all to no pur
pose. This was not calculated to
make Judge Reid comfortable, for the
Ist of December was rapidly approach
ing. and there was no escape but to
pay the bond. About ten days ago,
however, Reid, at the instance of a
friend, laid his case before Mr. Crau
rner, of this city, who, having got all
the points, promised to do the best he
could. Reid returned home to Friar’s
Point in better spirits, but the Ist of
December haunted him. Six thou
sand dollars security to be paid just
now, is enough to make anybody blue
and miserable and wretched. The
judge was not happy.
Crantner, whose spirit of adventure
has carried him to California, over the
plains, and back to the States, went
vigorously to work. The tifst point
for Craumcr was the fact that Stacy
has a brother residiug in Jackson,
Mississippi. Cranmer visited Jackson,
became intimate with Mr. Stacy, spent
his money freely, and wormed out of
him enough to satisfy Cranuier that
George Stacy, the murderer, was
ty, Tennessee. Cranmer returned to
Memphis and wrote to Judge Reid
that lie desired him to come up, as he
was confident that Stacy was alive.—
A few days ago Cranmer and Judge
Reid started for McKenzie, a town at
the junction of the Memphis and Lou
isville and Northwestern railroads,
about one hundred and fifty miles
from Memphis.
Here Judge Reid was requested by
Cramner to remain until he returned,
and without informing Reid of his
purpose, Cranmer d* parted for Hunt
ington, county seat of Carroll county,
on the tram going to Nashville. Cran
mer arrived there the night of the 17,
and early next morning he hired a
horse. In ft very curious way Cran
mer learned that a Mr. Clark, justice
of the peace in Huntington, knew Sta
cey, and where he could be found, but
that Clarke would not give any infor
mation unless forced to do so. Cran
mer found Clark, who is u grey-haired
gentleman of good bearing, busy in his
front yard nailing on the broken pal
ing of a fence. ‘‘Squire Clark, I sup
pose,” said Cranmer. “Yes sir.”—
“Squire Claik, you know' where
George Stacv can be found, and I
came to get the information." “Who
are you !” bristled up the old gentle
man. “I am an officer of the United
States”— pulling out u badge, which
happened to be a shawl pin —but the
words “officer of the United States,’’
spoken with a full voice and rather im
posing military air, had its effect.
“I tell you, sir,” said Clark, “this is a
rather desperate community, and your
life is in danger. You had better
leave.” “Yes, but, Squire, you need
not be alarmed; I’ve been among that
sort of people before. You must tell
me where I can find George Stucy.”—
“I can’t do it,” says Clark. “Then, sir,
I arrest you, and will keep you till you,
rot or U ll me where George Stacy
can be found.”
This forcible speech of Cranmer had
the desired effect. A broad-shoulder
ed, full-breasted mau, live-feet niue
inches high, about forty-five years old,
weight one hundred and eighty, dark
hazel full eyes, thick, short neck, broad
face, of weather-beaten color and an
officer of the United States, with a
plug hat and double-breasted overcoat,
made an impression on Esquire Clark.
The community, to be sure, was des
perate, and if the “boys” had learned
of Cranmer’s presence his life would
not be worth a broken jug; but Clark
was not going to rot in prison.
“Well. Mr. Officer, I suppose I have
to tell, but if. it is found out that I

“Never mind that—get your horse

Thor rode four wiles south of Hunt
ington, wad about 0 a. sc., came in
sight of mill “There,” sad Esquire
Cl irk, “ob the hill, just beyond the
mill, is the house where Stacy lives—
iii the mill he is perhaps now. I can
go no further.”
“Very well," said Cranmer, “I am
obliged to you.” Cranmer dismount
ed, tied his horse about a quarter of a
mile from he mill and started. He
crossed the mill branch on a foot log,
above the mill, and ran at a rapid
gait, but just as he was ascending the
hill ill its rear, and a few yards off,
Stac> was in the act of jumping out of
a hole, cut for the purpose. Cranmer
drew his revolver and told him to stop
The muzzle of the navy repeater per
suaded Stacy not to jump. Cranmer
entered, placed handcuffs on him, and
went to the house, a few yards oflf, to
get ready for the trip.
While at the house, Stacy’s brother*
brother in-law, and cousin came up
from the mill, walking iu an ordinary
gait, but two of them had rifles on
their shoulders—a sight that Cranmei
did not like; it was calculated to make
him feel lonely among strangers, whose
character was not altogether good for
peaceful results. But a wood-chopper
came into the house to relieve Cran
tner’s anxiety, and as he went out the
back door, of course Cranmer felt
doubly comfortable.
“Who art) those men?” asked Cran
mer.
“One is my brother, another my
wife’s brother, and a cousin.”
“Aha ! Are they in the habit of car
rying those rifles?”
“No, they are hunting.”
“Ah !”
Presently they came up to the house.
Cranmer reminded Stacy that it was
time to go; Stacy was ready, but Cran
mer was not,, HaAuxmul tu the m*n
tlcinen with the rifles, and in the same
emphatic manner with which he had
overawed ’Squire Clark, said: “Mr
Stacy and myself are ready to leave*.-
but we are uot going to move a step
until you leave. And the lirst man
who makes a motion to take his rifle
off his shoulder I will shoot through
the heart.” And with this he drew
his navy. “And,” continued Cranmer,
“I want you all to march to that yon
der hill (about three hundrad yards
off) and if you don’t move d—u quick
I’ll commence firing.” They moved;
and when they got to the place desig
nated Ciranmu* and Stacy mounted a
horse of Cbu k’s, Stacy first, Cranmer
behind, bound for the railroad.
The train for Nashville came first,
and as Cranmer preferred a railroad
car, going anywhere aud in any direc
tion, to the vicinity of Huntington,
having in charge a desperate mau, the
leader of a gang of outlaws. Before
getting in Cranmer locked Lis wrist to
a liand-cufi' on Stacy’s guarding
against escape. They returned to
ward McKenzie early the next morn
ing; met Judge Reid—the most sur
prised and happiest of men. The
SG.OOO were not to be paid—enough
to ? elieve Reid or any other man.
George Stacy is now in the jail at
Friar's Point; will be tried found
guilty of murder, doubtless, and hung,
unless lie escapes or is rescued. Alto
gether, the arrest of Stacy is one of
the most remarkable and daring feats
that has ever been performed by any
“United States officer, ’or any other
sort. Judge Reid has been saved from
pecuniary ruin, and justice has not yet
been defeated.

The city of Elgin, tonic forty miles
west of Chicago, is greatly excited by
the appearance of a strange disease in
that vicinity. The first case termina
ted fatally on Friday last The facta
are as follows: On Friday week Sits.
C. TV. Darnels a lady twenty-two years
of age, who was married two years ago,
and gave birth to a child eleven months
ago, was prostrated by what seemed at
first to be premonitory symptoms of ty
phoid fever. She had not been very
well for some time previous, bet noth
iug serious was anticipated until Sun
day, when she was compelled to take
her bed and place herself under medi
cal treatment. Sbe complained Os
pains in her bones and soreness in igoe.
flesh. Nothing unusual, however, was
observed until Sunday morning, when
the milk from her breast attracted at
tention by its dark c«. lor, it looking
like the waetings of au ink bottle—
Submitting the milk to a misrrosCopic
examination, it was fouud to contain
an immense numberof nnimalctila?, dif
ferent in size and shape from any hrt*-
man parasite of which the attending
physician had ever seen or heard.
XO. 26.
They seemed to bo somewhat hex
agonal in form, longer one way than
the other. They did not seem to lmvo
any head, but woro evidently alive,
judging from the way in which they
moved about. Their size was estima
ted by the Doctor as varying from the
one huunred- thousandth to the fivo
hundred-thousandth of an inch in di
ameter. The power of the microscope
used varied from one hundred and fif
ty to eight hundred diameters, the for
mer power being required to make
the insect visible. They were not tri
china, as the Doctor was well acquaint
ed with that form of parasite, and this
new kind was much smaller and of an
entirely different shape. Authorities
were searched, but noue of them gave
any clue by which they could be idenr
titled, and the Doetor and those with
whom he nad consulted were compel
led to believe th.it they had discovered
anew species of human parasite. In
the meantime the patient grew worse..
She suffered terribly, and complained
of sorene. s all over her body, and noth
ing could be done to relieve her. She
could uot b~ar a bath, and. could .hardi
ly bear to be touched She lingered iu
uqnnv iiniilthy *■*—
mien she died.
There whs some reason at first to
believe that the parasites were the pro
duct of some disease of the breast, and
were confined to that locality. The
Doctor determined to test the* matter,
aud, anticipating her death, he was
prepared to do so five minutes after
life was extinct. While the body was
still warm, he made an incision in> the
calf of the leg, and, drawing the lancet,
examined the moisture which covered
it. He found three of the parasites,,
only one of which was alive. They
were in all respects sitrilar to those
found in the fluid taken from the breast.
He then dissected the tihiatio arteries
and muscles of the leg, including a,
small portion of the surrounding titsli.
The muscle presented a granular ap
pearance, as if covered with grains t f
sand. These grains the Doctor pre
sumed were parasites. The investiga
tions were conducted by Dr. Claik, as
sisted by Dr. Fyrell, and neither of
them, nor any of the Faculty who have
b eeu asked their opinion, are able to
explain the presence of what they re~
gard as puristical phenomena.
A further examination of t lie muscle
will be made, and it is expected that
some light will lie shed upon what is
now a mystery. The physicians think
that the parasites hastened dlath, if
they were not the immediate cause.—
While some of the symptcms of typhoid
remained to the end, they were aggra
vated, the pains, and sorene.-s, and
throbbing especially, and death came
sooner and more suddenly than in ca
ses of unmistakable typhoid. The ba
by had been pining for sorno time be
fore his mother took sick, but as soon
as he was weaned be recovered his
health, and is now more robust than
ever. He was not weaned until his
mother was confined to her bea. The
doctor reports that he examined the
child’s llocd, which was perfectly heal
thy.
A Time to Laugh. —BeecLier says;
There is a time to laugh. When it
comes, every Christian should approve
it. Moreover, it is particularly incum
bent on ministers to set the flock a
good example in this respect. A mer
ry heart doeth good like a medicine,
aud is much easier to take. The min
ister has no right to wear himself out
by unnecessary friction, when the oil of
gladness is dropping upon the pastures
from every side. To maintain cheer
fulness, even in the face of’ real diffi
culty, and trouble, is one of the crown
ing graces of Christianity, and the min
ister, even beyond other men should
seek for it.
