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. An Oyster Suaper.

We are gratified to learn that 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 uary. This is quite a success 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.

The first Indication of croup is hoarseness»aud in a child sub¬ ject to tha disease it may be taken as a sure sign of the ap¬ proach of aji attack. Following 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 e have yet to learn of a single instance in which it has not proved effectual. No other preparation can show such a record—twenty-five years'con stant use without a failure. For sale by Owl Drug Store Old RellC3.

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. For sale by Owl Drug Store. Went to Richmond. Mr. W. Y. Edwards returned Tuesday from Richmond, Va., where he had been selling a car load of cattle. This is the sec¬ ond load he has shipped to Rich¬ 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. For Rent.
