There were several head of
horses and mules sold here
Saturday at public sale. They
were the property of Mr. Alfred
Boazley. Mr. J. M. Wood of
Washington came over and
bought two or three of them.
They Sell Cheap.
It is strange that people regard
things so useless when not in
actual service. They will sell
produce in the fall at less than
half what they pay for it in the
spring. It is said that some are
selling good plow-hoes and
cooking ovens for old iron and
will likely buy new ones next
spring on time.

The Daughters of the Confed¬

our young friend Glenn Legwen
has been chosen to represent the
Phi Kappa Society of the State
University in the contest for the
Clyde Shropshire Medal which
is to come off on the 19th of J&u

scored by our young Townsman
—the more so that he is only a
freshman—while those with
whom i ie had to contend for the
place and those with whom he is
associated are Seniors. We hope
he may win the Medal. He as

Four Children Crenated.
One night last week on a
plautal ion near Greeuesboro four
negro children were burned to
ashes. As the often told story
goes: The mother locked them
in her h< use and went to a
neighborhood quilting and when
she returned the house was in
ashes and {lie bodies of her four
children were found a charred
mass of fletih.
A SIJ K l ( URE FOR CROUP.

The first Indication of croup is
hoarseness»aud in a child sub¬

taken as a sure sign of the ap¬

this hoarseness is a peculiar
rough cough. If Chamberlin's
Cough childloecomes Renn-dy is given as soon
as the hoarse, or
even after tUe croupy cough ap¬
pears, it will prevent the attack.
It is used ill many thousands of
homes in this bioad land and
never mothers. lisappoints W the anxious

of a single instance in which it
has not proved effectual. No
other preparation can show such
a record—twenty-five years'con

As a cure for rheumatism
Chamberlin’s Pain Balm is gain¬
ing a wide reputation. D. B.
Johnson of Richmond, Ind., has
been troubled with that ailment
since 1862. In speaking of it he
says: ‘I never found anything
that would relieve me until I
used Chamberlin’s Pain Balm.
It acts like magic with me. My
foot was swolen and paining me
very much, but one good applica¬
tion of Pain Balm relieved me.

Mr. W. Y. Edwards returned
Tuesday from Richmond, Va.,
where he had been selling a car
load of cattle. This is the sec¬

mond.
Will says he found a town
over in North Carolina, on the
Atlantic Coast Line, that has
300 inhabitants and not a single
negro lives inside of the town
limits. This is a remarkable
town to be situated in the South.
Wholesale Jail Delivery.
Eight prisoners broke jail
Wednesday night and left here
for parts unknown. They were
all colored as follows: Henry
Collins, for assault and battery;
Ed. Pines and Paul Gunn, for
gambling; Jas. Daniel, for keep¬
ing a gamblipg house; Herschel
Mitchell, for hog stealing; Will
Edwards and Anderson Pounds
for highway robbery; Ed. Law¬
rence, Fred Crutchfield for steal¬
ing a box of tobacco from Mr.
J. B. Simmons’ wagou. The lat¬
ter two came back yesterday and
said they did not intend to leaye
and tried to get the other boys to
not be so rude as to break out.
The escapes got out of the
cages by the main lock of that
department being left unfasten¬
ed. They then tore up the wood
steps that lead into the Sheriff's
office and used the blocks of
wood to prize open the heavy
iron door that separates the offi¬
ce from the jail, first using an
iron fire-poker to spring open
the door. By this means they
sprung the bottom of the great
door sufficient for one of the
party to get into the office where
he found the key and unlocked
the door.
This done the windows to the
office were raised and the
prisioners were at liberty.
They all went out in the
but Anderson Pounds and
said he was going off on the
train, beating his way. The es¬
cape was made about 9 o’clock
Wednesday night.
Later. Anderson Pounds
has been captured at Sharon and
Will Edwards was there the
uight he escaped.
