relish my food. Indigestion bothered
me at times also.
“I was advised to take Peruna, and I
took it as prescribed for a month, when
my cure was almost complete. Today
there is not a trace of catarrh in my

that Peruna cured me.”

Tuesday, May 2G is the day selected
by Judge T. A. Parker for the execu

E. Lyle, charged with the murder of
his wife and child In this city on Jan.
30, 1907.
The death sentence was passed
Lyle Just, before tho court adjourned
for tho no(5ii recess today. At 11:41
Judge Parker asked Judge John T.
Myers, one of Lyle's * attorneys
there was any reason why the sen
tence of death should not then bo
parsed upon the defendant.
Judge Myers replied: "We can glv
no leapil reason, your honor."
Judge Parker then ordered Lyle to
stand. He stated that it was with
great sorrow that for the second
time the enforcement of the law com
pelled him to pronounce the death
sentence on the defendant. Judge
Parker then took up the case from the
night of the murder on the 30th of
January, nnd told of his being peti
tioned to call a special term of court
to try Lyle. He told of his refusal
to call a speciul term because of the
public being so wrought up against
the defendant at that time. His hon

Dr. N. A. TOer, who many think Is
not a success as a representative and
should not therefore be returned, was
then a candidate for reelection, and S
F. Miller, Esq; formerly sheriff and a
life lcag citizen of Ware County and

endowed with the gift of oriuory but
generally recognized as possessed of
strong common sense and an Indefa

doubtless accomplish something, was
also a candidate, and subsequently
Mr. L. V. Williams, lawyer and news

their client from the gallows. He
said that tho counsel had spared no
trouble, time or expenses in behalf of
the {defendant, and that Lyle should
feel tho greatest gratitude for them.
Judge Parker advised Lyle to pro
pare his soul for the death which
waa almost sure to come on May 26.
During His Honor's talk and while
passing the sentence of death, Lyle
stood and faced the Judge. No sign
of agitation was visible on hU coun

light summer suit, with patent leath

court bouse, but otherwise there doe*
