ADAM SLOAN Foully Murdered in the Hark by Prowline: Robbers. McDonough ai*i*allel> By an Outrage, the Like of Which is Too Terrible to Contemplate by a Civilized Community. McDonough is under a pall. An old and honorable citizen, with the weight of eighty-five peaceful years resting upon his shoulders, aroused at night from feeble but sweet sleep, and cowardly aud without warning shot to death by a fiendish, prowling thief, is a crime for which torture by piece meal at the stake, or any other punishment nliiCU iiUuiiiU - is too good to be meeted out to the abandon d aud wretched perpetra tor. Yet such a crime, aud such thoughts —too awful and foul for consideration by a civilized community—fall to the lot of McDonough this week. And the victim is none other than Captian Adam C. Sloan, whose long aud well-spent life is thus brought to a bloody close. Shades of the saints! how could this have ever been pictured in old Mc- Donough ? This awful perpetration occurred at 10 o’clock last Sunday night. Just as the citizens of our quiet and unsuspect ing community had returned from de votial church exercises, and a few were not more than comfortably lulled to slumber, the fatah shots rang out, and shortly after, the terrible result was known. Mrs. Jane Johnson, an aged niece of Capt. Sloan who lives near Lovejoy, was sleeping on a bed with the Cap tain's wife in the same mom with him, and these three old people were the only inmates of the house. Mrs, Johnson raised the alarm as best she could, arousing Professor 11am, a grandson-in-law living near by and soon a number of others had gathered. A hurried investigation showed tliai the stovo room had first been entered aud a lot cold of food eaten. From there the party went to the dairy, drauk near ly a gallou of butter milk, then went to the Captian’s bed-room wiudow, raised it and entered. It was here the fiend’s hellish work was done. He crossed the room, pick ed up a valise, and it seems was rifling its contents, when Capt. Sloau was aroused, aud the burglar immediately commenced firing upon him. The first shot awoke Mrs. Johnson, four more following as rapidly as possible until his pistol was emptied aud the scoun drel dropped everything and ran out the window. Mrs. Johnson in her fright never attempted to rise during the shooting, being under the impression that Capl. Sloan had discovered a burglar and was doing the shooting himself. Mrs. Sloan who is very deaf, was awakened, but did not seem to comprehend the noise and was held on the bed by Mrs. John son. As soon as the firing ceased and the party ran Mrs. Johnson called to her uncle but received no answer. She then approached him and for the first time realized that he was shot. She found him with his head hanging part ly off the bed. As soon as help arrived I)r. C. 1). McDonald was Bent for and the wound was fouud to be fatal. The ball en tered just over the left nipple, ranged upward, passed through the lungs and came out the back just above the shoul der blade, showing that he must have been in a reclining position when shot. Another ball passed through his pock et book and a roll of money in his pants pocket, but did not enter the flesh. Capt. Sloan was able to talk a few hours after being shot, and was per fectly rational, but at first did not know he was shot, and could not tell any thing about how it occurred. He spoke parting words to several members of his family, and gave instructions of tender provision for his poor old wife, whom he has loved and cared for so long. Mrs. Sloan was completely stunued and did not realize the situation until Tuesday. Then she regained her nat ural self, and said she first discovered the open window by the cool air, start ed to get up and close it, when the first two shots were fired at her and Mrs. Johnson pulled her back on the bed. This is corroborated by two bul let holes being found in their lied. Everything possible has been, and is being done by our citizens to appre hend the fiendish perpetrator, but so far no reliable clew whatever can lie started. A few tracks were found iu the garden and patch, and besides indi vidual attempts to track them, Mr. Vanie Kimbell’s dogs we-e brought up from Locust Grove, but they were young and nothing could be done with them. From the present outlook the foul deed will rernuiu a mystery until unfolded by a higher power. Capt. Sloan did not die until 9 o’clock Wednesday night, though his death was momentarily expected from I noon Monday, he having lain from that [ time iu a totally unconscious condition, with a mere faint breath in his body and nothing but a wonderfully vital constitution sustaining him. His funeral occurred yesterday af ternoou at the residence, conducted by Revs.-I. K. Rosser and M. F. Duncan, after which the remains were tenderly laid to rest iu McDonough cemetery. Merchants closed their doors, aud a large concourse of people gathered to pay their last sad respects at the grave. Here we pause for comment, with a pen utterly to feeble to express the in dignation of an outraged people. Surely an avenging justice will yet overtake the grovoling wretch who could fall so low into deeds of black ness as to take the life of Adam Sloan as it has been done. In our announcement column this week Mr. Henry 0. Alexander offers his candidacy for Representative. Mr Alexander is as true as steel to his fiiends, and being a life long farmer, he knows well the needs of the labor ing classes. He announces his pur pose to represent the whole people, and his earnest and honest endeavors to this end, in a thoroughly impartial manner, is the pledge to which he would ad here. Ilis friends support him with the assurance that no man could be more faithful iu the performance of his whole duty. Read his card and reuiemb r his claims when you come to vote.

The Cure For Scrofula was once supposed to be tlia touch of royalty. To-day, many grateful people know that the “sovereign remedy” is Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, This powerful altera tive extirpates “the evil” by thoroughly eliminating all the strumous poison from the blood. Consumption, catarrh, and various other physical as well as mental maladies, have their origin in SCROFULA When hereditary, this disease manifests it self in childhood by glandular swellings, running sores, swollen joints, and general feebleness of body. Administer Ayers Sarsa parilla on appearance of the first symptoms. “My little girl was troubled with a painful scrofulous swelling under one of her arms. The physician being unable to effect a cure, I gave her one bottle of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, and the swilling disappeared.” —W. H.
