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. 3 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. * No greater triumph in mediciuo or chemistry has been recorded than Hall’s Hair Renewer to revivify and rcstoie gray hair to the color of youth. OriXIOX OF (J. S. MINISTER SCRUGGS. Ma. A. K. IIawkes—Dear Sir: Per mit me to join in the expressions of admiration for your wonderful eye glasses, that you have received from the highest authorities. Where the finest material is combined with such perfect construction, the combination is bound to produce a softness and clearness of vision unequaled by any other glasses. All strain is removed from the eyes of the wearer, which improve till their strength of sight becomes perfect. Very truly yours, William L Schuoos, United States Minister to Venezuela, sun wed wky Im 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. Write your epitaph on the hearts of your friends by the sweet influence of your dally life. Quinine impairs the hearing, destroys the nerves and injures the digestion. Cheatham’s Tasteless Chili Tonic is pleasant to take, leaves no unpleasant taste, improves the digestion and builds up the entire system. No cure no pay. septll-w4t 3 APPLICATION FOR CHARTER.
