that we are now ready for the season’s
trade, and on Monday next we will com
mence to show the grandest line of fine
dress goods and general dry goods ever
shown by any house in this part of the

As we make a specialty of fine dress
goods and general dry goods, and by

make you lower prices than you can ob
tain from merchants who carry a little
handful of all sorts.
We say unhesitatingly that in this
season’s purchases we have eclipsed all
our previous efforts. In order to inau
gurate the season that is in keeping
with our stock, we will have a SPECIAL

a call, will make it to their interest by
giving special prices for this opening of

FOULLY MURDERED.
SEABORN UONES, COL., KILLED BY
BILL BUTLER.
The Coroner's Inquest—Kvhlonco Coocln-
elusive— Killed by Hie Son-In-Law—The
Murderer In Jail—(oiuuiltinent Trial
Will be Had To-Ilay.
On Tuesday evening about 8 o'clock
the quiet neighborhood near the Plains
was disturbed by a gun shot.
In a few moments the home of Seaborn
Jones, col., was crowded by anxious peo
ple, endeavoring to learn the causo of
the shooting, who di 1 it, and who had
been shot.
Soon It was discovered that old man
Seaborn Jones, a quiet and inoffensive
colored man, had been shot ant( killed.
The old man was sitting in front of
his fireplace shelling peas, while his
wife was in tluf adjoining room. Tho
fatal shot was fired, striking him full in
the Bide. Ho got up, walked Into the
room where his wife was, fell over on
his face and died without speaking.
Early Wednesday morning Coroner
Parker summoned Messrs.U. S. Lockett,
C. F Foster, K. C. West, D. W. Bagley,
J. II. llodgers and T. Q Hass, and pro
ceeded to the scene for the purpose of
holding an Inquest, with tho following
result:
From the nino witnesses examined it
was learned that bad blood had existed
between ol<f man Seaborn and his son-
in-law, Bill Butler, and that Bill had
made threats that he would "do the old
man." A double-barrel shotgun was
found in Bill’s house with one barrel
loaded with shot the same size as those
Seaborn had been shot with,and that the
muzzle of the empty barrel was black
cued by fresh smoko.
For some time Seaborn and Bill have
been mixed up in several law cases, in
all of which Seaborn came out first best.
This »eems to have instilled into the
brdtal mind of Bill that to get oven he
would have to kill the old man.
After a careful and thorough investi
gation the jury rendered the following
verdict: “We, tile jury, believe from tho
evidence that Seaborn Jones came to his
death from a gunshot, and that the gun
was in the hands of Bill Butler; John
Butler and John Ward, alias John Hor
ton, accessories."
Bill Butler was arrested, brought to
the city yesterday evening and placed in
tile county jail. His commitment trial
will be bad to-day if the witnesses can
bo apprehended, if not, it will come off
as eariy as possible.
We have received hundreds of testi
monials as to the efficacy of Hunt's Cure
iu cases of skin diseases, and truly be
lieve it the best remedy known for ring
worm, tetter, Eczema and similar dis
eases. Guaranteed. 50 cents per box.

A Sharp Nejro.
Yestorday Mr.Will Roach sent a negro
to tho city with a load of hay to sell.
After disposing of the hay for $3.25
the negro got on a two-for-a-nlck
drunk and went home. Upon arriving
there he told Mr. Roach that ho had lost
the money, but if ho would not arrest
him would work it out with him.
"Feak and Wwbl®.'
A friend of mine had an odd way of
fixing her words. Perfectly unconscious
of it, she would often make folks laugh.
She would speak of feeling “feak and
weeble,” for weak and feeble, and “cas
tor ill polls, 1 * for castor oil pills. But
she w r as weak and feeble, until she took
that powerful, invigorating tonic, “Fa
vorite Proscription,” which so wonderful
ly Imparts strength to tho whole system
and to the womb and its appendages in
particular. For overworked women,
run-down women, and feeble women
generally, Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescrip
tion is unequaled. It Is invaluable In
allaying and subduing nervous excitabil
ity, irritability, exhaustion, prostration,
hysteria, spasms and other distressing,
norvous symptoms, commonly attendant
upon functional and organic d sease. It
induces refreshing sleep and relieves
mental anxiety and despondency.
There is pedantry in manners, as in
all arts and sciences, and sometimes in
trades. Pedantry is properly the over
rating any kind of knowledge we pre
tend to, and if the kind of knowledge
wo pretend to, and if the kind of knowl
edge be a trifie in itself, the pedantry is
the greater.
Scrofula is that impurity in the blood,
which accumulating in the glands of the
neck, produce unsightly lumps or swel
lings, which causes painful running
sores on the arms, legs or feet, which
develops ulcers in the eyes, ears or nose,
often causing blindness or deafness,
which is the origin of pimples, cancer
ous growths and many other manifesta
tions usually ascribed to “humors.” P.
I*. P. is the friend in need. A course of
this valuable blood purifier and you will
be a well man. If you suffer from scrof
ula in any of its various forms, be sure
to take I*. I*. P.
Rheumatism Cured.
PothdamEit’s Red Star Stork, Lake
City, Fla.—P. P. P. Manufacturing
Company—Gents: Have suffered with
rheumatism for some time, and tried a
great many remedies, but could find no
relief until I used your great and bene
ficial P. P. P. I recommend it to suffer
ing humanity. Yours,
J. Potsdameii.
Indolence is a delightful but distress
ing state; we must be doing something
to be happy. Action is no less necessary
than thought to the instinctive tenden
cies of the human frame.
Just how an alterative medicine
cleanses the system is an open question;
but that Ayer’s Sarsaparilla does pro
duce a radical change In the blood is
well attested on all sides. It is every
where considered the best remedy for
blood disorders.
No state can be more destitute than
that of a person, who, when the delights
of sense forsake him, has no pleasures of
the mind.
It is with narrow-souled people as
with narrow-necked bottles; the less
they have in them, the more noise they
make in pouring it out.
Rheumatism is caused by a poisonous
acid in tho blood and yields to Ayer’s
Pills. Many cases which seem chronic
and hopeless, have been completely
cured by this medicine. It will cost but
little to try what effect the Pills may
have in your case. We predict success.
Cold meats are generally found more
easy of digestion than warm ones.
Language was given that we might say
pleasant things to each other.

admiration for your wonderful eye

material is combined with such perfect
construction, the combination is bound
to produce a softness and clearness of

Approaching Completion.
The outside work on the new Catholic
Cathedral on Lee street will soon be
completed and then the workmen will
devoto thomselves to the inside finish.
The church Is a square structure with a
large dome rising up from the centre
and surmounted by a cross. The cover
ing of the dome is the work of Mr. W.
H. R. Scbroeder, and is of the best sheet
tin. It has been painted perfectly
white, while the cross and ball on top
are gilded. It is the intention to make a
handsome finish inside.
Oddities and singularities of behavior
may attend genius; but when they do,
they are its misfortunes and blemishes.
The man of true genius will be ashamed
of them,or at least will never affect to be
distinguished by them.
Say, Mister!
Is it possible you are suffering from ca
tarrh and have not used Dr. Sage’s Ca
tarrh Remedy? All the terrible conse
quences of catarrh in the head may be
averted if you will but make the effort.
You know,too well,its distressing symp
toms. You possibly know if neglected
it invariably gotisfrom bad to worse and
is likely to run into consumption and
end in the grave. Here is a way to es
cape. Its makers arc ready to take all
the risk and make a standing offer of
$500 for an incurable case of this loath
some and dangerous disease. You can
get $500, or belter—a cure.

On Sunday last two detectives of

When they arrived there a vigilance

they refused to do, whereupon tho com

great shape. What the damages were
could not be learned.
