Medical Advice
You need a doctor many times when you
don’t call one. You suffer pain in fifty
forms and yet won’t call the doctor, be
cause you hope that the pain “will go
away after a while.” And, too, you know
by experience, that that first visit of the
doctor is generally followed by many others,
with the inevitable consequence of a big
bill “for professional services.” You don’t
know what to do for yourself or what to take.
But suppose that you could get free, ab
solutely free, the advice of one of the most
Eminent
Physicians
in the United States? You can. The phy
sician is right here. He has an office in the
building, he has a staff of correspondents to
assist him, and anyone and everyone, who
needs medical advice is invited to write to
him. If it’s baby’s health or mother’s or
the health of any member of the family you
may write about it, sure of a careful read
ing of your letter, sure of a conscientious
diagnosis of your case,
Sure ol a cm
if cure is possible. Every letter will be held
as a strictly confidential communication.
Remember these facts.
W e offer you medical advice from one of
the most eminent practitioners in the United
States, whether our medicines suit your
particular case or not. We offer you this
advice at the cost of the two cent stamp
which it will take to bring your letter to our
office. Address the Medical Department*

HE CUT THE OFFICER-
Marshal Henderson is Stabbed by
a Negro He is Trying to Arrest-
On Sunday evening about 3
o’clock there was a disturbance
among some negroes at the restaur
ant of Bob Smith, on east Main
street. Marshal Henderson was
notified ot the trouble and went to
the place, where Dan Thomas, a
well known negro about 34 years
old, was named as the cause of the
racket, The officer told Thomas he
would have to arrest him, when the
negro remonstrated and showed
signs of resisting. The officer
caught hold of him, when a scuffle
begun, the marshal pulling and the
negro resisting, until out in the
street, when the negro exhibited an
open knife and when the marshal
told him to shut the weapon up, he
with his right hand made a desper
ate drive for the marshal’s heart
The marshal saw the lick coming
and turned his body, and caught it
on his left arm. The marshal after
he had received the cut, which was
several inches long and laid the
flesh bare almost to the bone, using
his heavy stick in his right hand
dealt the negro a heavy blow on the
head, which felled him to the
ground. lie rose and came the
second and the third time and was
each time felled by the marshal’s
stick. The last time the negro
grabbed the stick and tried to se
cure it, but the marshal wrenched
it from his hand, and the negro ran
in tne direction of Haytown.
In the latter part of the struggle
Zeke Thomas, a younger brother ol
Dan. tried to stab the marshal in
the back. He was taken charge of
by parties who had collected at the
scene of the struggle.
Dan Thomas and his brother Zeke
were arrested, as was also Lucy
Lemon and Porter Daniel, the lat
ter two, having used, as was claimed
loud and improper language on the
street while taking a voluntary
part in Dan Thomas’ attempt at es
cape.
The layout were arraigned before
the mayor on Monday evening.
The charge against Dan Thomas
was for assault with intent to mur
der. It was shown that he had at
different times made threats against
the ma-shal, should he at'empt to
arrest him again—he had arrested
him several times previous. He
was bound over in a bond of vjjsoo,
which he failed to make, and he
was returned to the jail. Zeke
