Another Gambler Caught-
Mr. Fesgtn yesterday caught an
other of the gamblers discovered
Saturday lait. The negro is known
ns Jim Neal, and was landed In the
lock-up.

Will the street cars be stopped?
That’s a question which has been
worrying tbe people,
And it’s enough to worry them
for it’s a long walk out to many of
the housea.
Or will the line be consolidated
with the electric light company?
Both of these questions will be
decided in a few days, and In fact,
most probably to-day.
Hon. John B. Felder, President
of the Street Car Company was
seen by a reporter yesterday, and
aBked to settle these rumors.
“Well," said he, “nothing defi
nite can be said just now, but one
or tbe other of them wljl come true
at an early date. Tbe trouble is
J ust this. Tbe people don’t patron'
ize the cars near enough, and we
are losing money rapidly. What’s
the cause I don’t know, but the
fact Is only too plainly thrust upon
me that money is being lost.
“If the people even make re
ceipts even with the expenses I will
be satisfied. If It is neccessary to
stop tbe cars, we will start them
again In tbe spring, when the pat
ronage Is better."
So It looks as If walking for those
who don’t own carriages or buggies
will be the order of the day, and
night tbo.
However, there will be a meeting
of the directors of the Elecric Light
Company, and of the Street Car
Company to-day, and some settle
ment may be reached, and a trade
made.
This is looked upon as practi
cally certain by some, and if such
is the case, we will still have tbe
service.
It would be a great inconvenience
to have them stopped, and It is
hoped and expected that this will
not be the caee. ‘
But unless tbe companies come
to an agreement, something will
have to be done by the people to
have the service.
The question Is of vital Interest,
and the citizens await develop
ments eagerly. *
We can’t afford to do without
them, 1b the way they all feel.
He cured loudly with all bti might,
While In a room with friends one night.
Only a row remained of the red, white

And again on the table hie hand he

Then turned them up to show what be

And Holy Moses, curio he ought,
For he ha * our kings and said, “I pass."

A HANDSOME OFFICE
A Brilliant Young Lawyer.
Mr. John D. Little, who is now
here from Columbus, interested in
the Howards-Bickerstaft case, is
one of the most promising aud
bright youngattorneyB in the State.
He has only been practicing for a
few modtha, but has made quite a
reputation, and the foot of his be
ing on such an Important case
speaks for itself.
Our store will remain open at
night until after Christmas. It
will be beautifully lighted by elec
tricity, kept warm, and wo will
have good music and jolly crowd.
We Invite everybody to call.
James Frickkr 4 Bros.
A Recorder representative was
shown through the office of Dre. J.
B. & A. B. Hinkle the other day,
and a more elegant and convenient
establishment was never seen. It
is handsomely fitted with all the
latest and most expensive instru
ments used in delicate and difficult
surgery.
These gentlemen are too well
known here to need anything said
here of their ability. They are
recognized us leaders In their pro
fession, and lu their special lines
cannot be excelled.
The young negro whose head was
split by a circular saw a few weeks
since, and who was expected to dte
hourly, was treated by them, and is
getting well rapidly. It is as fluo a
piece of work as can ho done by
any, and a triumph for the gentle
men.
By reference to their card you
may see What tliev claim, and even
more might be said of them with
truth.
Whe her that’s a true Btory or
not, Itcertaiuly la apt to be made a
fact auy night.
That is provided a game Is go,
logon.
Tbe people have grown so tired of
fraying the tax on a little metre run
by air, that patience has ceased to
be a virtue, and they now demand a
better article for their money.
It is called gas, but it might be
escaping In your room for a week,
and you would hardly know the
difference. Except for that famil
iar sizzling noise made by the
rushing winds which course
through tbe pipe. It’s always a
question which way these winds
are going to course, too. Home-
times they run out, aud at others
they siz back to tbe air tank.
When you turn it on first a lot of
air has to come rushing out and
blow out all matches bold in Its
track. After a while you may be
agreeably surprised by getting a
faint blue light. Then it may run
back a foot or two in the pipe.
There Is absolutely no telling what
will happen. Of course, this Is
pleasant to a few of the young peo
ple who like that old game of
“Many, many stars," but Its get-
tlug mighty tiresome to people not
so inclined.
And they wou’t stand It much
longer.
There has already been talk of a
boycott, and if tbe company don’t
do better this will materialize.
Tbe citizens have been paying for
good gas and they want it. Every
day somebody comes up, aud kicks
hard, and with a perfect right.
Yesterday, said a prominent
gentleman to The Recorder,
“Why in the world don’t you fel
lows jump on this gas comp'any.
Tbo way they have treated and are
treating the people is a shame, and
It’s a wonder they’ve stood It this
long. They are’wrought up now,
aud mean business, so you may just
notify tills atmospherical gas com
pany thnt If they want any custom
era at all here they must change
things considerably."
Every day somebody talks like
this, and it Is high time that these
wishes he listened to. If they ate
not, the company will not be long
in regretting it. *
It should he said in this connec
tion that no blame can be attached
to tbe popular young manager, Mr.
Heury White. He haB given as
good a service as possible with such
poor facilities.
He labors hard and well to get tbe
stuff to bum stall, and is under as
great a disadvantage as the people.
Many complaints have been
made him, and he iu turn com
plains to the company, and appre
ciates the trouble as much as any.
It’s the company who have the
power to Improve the plant, and
whose duty it Is.
And not only duty, but they
must do it or quit altogether.

Personal Liberty
▼e.
Physical Slavery.
We are all free American citizens,
enjoying our personal liberty; but
most of us are In physical slavery,
suffering from scrufula, salt rheum
or some other form of impure
blood. Hood’s Sarsaparilla is tbe
great blood|purlfier which dissolves
the bonds of disease, gives hehltb
and perfect pbysloal liberty.
It Did It.
Yestprday a gentleman brought
an advertisement to The Re
corder of some strayed animals
be bad taken up. Tbe advertise
ment had not been in the office a
half hour before he found the owner
of the cattle, who was just eomlng
to The Recorder to advertise for
them. This Is another Instance of
the wonderful effeote of adver
tising.
Popularly called the king of med
icines—Hood’s Sarsaparilla. It
conqnore scrofula, salt rheum and
all other blood diseases.
Death of Mrs. Glover.
Mr*. Starling Glover died on
Sunday morning at Andenonvllle,
and was burled that afternoon In
the cemetery of that town. She
was a go6d Christian lady, loved
by all who'knew her, and goea to a
reward awaiting her above. She
was the widow of Hon. Starling
Glover of tblsoounty, and had lived
to the ripe old age of eighty. She
res a number of friend* and rel
atives to mourn her death.

WHAT 13
SCROFULA
It is that impurity in the blood, which, ac
cumulating in the glands of the neck, pro
duces unsightly lamps or swellings; which
causes painful running sores on tho arms,
legs, or feet; which develops* ulcers In the
eyes, ears, or nose, often causing blindness or
deafness; which is the origin of pimples, can
cerous growths, or tbe many other manifesta
tions usually ascribed to “humors;'* which,
fastening upon tho lungs, causes consumption
and death. Being the most ancient, it is the
most general of all diseases or affections, for
very few persons are entirely free from It.
Tm" CURED
By taking Hood's Sarsaparilla, which, by
tho rcmarkablo cures it has accomplished,
otten when other medicines have failed, has
proven ltselt to ha a potent and peculiar
medicine for tbla disease. Somo of tbn*)
euros are rosily wonderful. If you suitor from
scrofula, bo sure to try Hood’s Sarsaparilla.
“My daughter Mary was afflicted with scrof
ulous so re neck from the time she was 22 months
old till sho became alx years of ago. Lumps
formed in her neck, and one of them after
growing to the size of a pigeon’s egg, became
a running aoro for over three years. Wo gave
her Hood’s Sarsaparilla, when tho tump and
all Indications of scrofula entirely dis
appeared, and now she seems to b* a healthy
child.” J. B. Coblilz, Naurigbt, N. J.
