THE AMERICUS WEEKLY TfMES-RECORDER: FRIDAY, MAY 29, 5 891. IS OWI-NS A BIGAMIST? THAT’S THE REPORT AND THE OF FICERS ARE AFTER HIM. I III- Una n U it- nml live < lillilr cniin ia,o Tiiliii in time, even Consumption yields to the wonderful effects of Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery. It won’t make new lungs—hut it will make diseased ones healthy when nothing else will. There’s reason for it, too. Consumption is Lung- scrofula. For every form of scrof ula, and all blood-taints, the “Dis covery ” is a positive cure. It’s the most potent strength - restorer, blood - cleanser, and flesh - builder known to medical science. For Weak Lungs, Spitting of Wood, Bronchitis, Asthma, Catarrh, and all lingering Coughs, it’s an une qualed remedy. It’s a guaranteed one. If it doesn’t benefit or cure, you have your money back. You’ve everything to gain from it—nothing to lose. It’s especially potent in curing Tetter, Salt-rheum, Eczema, Erysip elas, Boils, Carbuncles, Sore Eyes, Goitre, or Tide k Neck, and Enlarged Glands, Tumors and Swellings. Great Eating Ulcers rapidly heal under its benign influence. Sam owens, a young man, is badly wanted. Officers have received instruc tions to be on the lookout for him, but so far no trace of him has been found. He is charged with being a bigamist, nwens married on last Tuesday a Miss Morton at L'ortlele, and lie and his wife left there that day, and are have gone to Columbus, but since leav ing nothing has been heard from them, and it is now believed lie has gone t< ment that < : Italy, i with bines for the ivar-lik< Luidh ements s and c > bristli rifles, c; Texas <* Old Nick Whiskey is the best and is noted for its ngc and purity, having been made on the same plantation over 23 years without a rival as wo constantly keep four year old RYE AND CORN on hand—ship any quantity, so write for price-list.

This was not Owens’ wife, but the let ter went on to state that Owens also had a wi.'e and four children living at God frey, and that lie, too, had deserted his family. As no one was particularly interested in the matter nothing was done with it and nothing further was thought of it. Owens continued on at his work and behaved himself well and made friends. • During last summer there moved to j and THEDFORD'S / .ACK- DRAUGHT are Cordelo a Mr. li.

Two months ago Morton’s sister, Miss Leila, a young Duly about ‘JO years of age, came to visit him, and from the first Owens began paying her attentions. A love match was soon the result, and then a marriage engagement. The day of the marriage was set and on last Tuesday Mis. Morton became Owen’s wife. It is said the marriage was very pri vate. At any rate it was not generally known until next day, and then Owens and his bride had left for their new home, either in Columbus or Texas. The brother then, for the first time, heard a rumor that Owens had a wife living in Godfrey. He at once wired to Godfrey, and in reply received a telegram from Mrs. Owens No. 1, giving all the information wanted. The matter was immediately made public and si nee then every eff ort has been made to secure his arrest. eight of the{saddl the officers of the second regiment.
