SATURDAY THIEVES CAUGHT
One Escaped and Gther Is in Jail.
| Thousands of Dollars Worth
| Stolen from Dawson Stores.
~ During a year the value of goods
that are stolen from the stores on
Saturdays while the rush is on will
reach into the thousands of dollars.
There are many who come to town
especially to steal.
Saturday two were caught in the
act, but one made his escape. At
the Bee Hive ga negro was discov
ered with his stalwart form snugly
enveloped in a brand new overcoat
he had neglected to express a desire
for to the proprietor, and when
spoken to about the matter made a
break for the door. A clerk quick
ly grabbed hold of the coat, but
the thief shed the garment in a
jiffy and at last accounts was still
making himself scarce in the com
munity. |
A strange negro giving his name
as Kid Charlie and claiming to be
from Alabama got too intimate with
a pair of Hornady’s good shoes. He
was captured, and is now registered
at the Hotel Johnslade for an in-‘
definite stay.

Where Bullets Flew.
David Parker of Fayette, N. Y., a
veteran of the civil war, who lost a
foot at Gettysburg, says: “The good
Electric Bitters have done is worth
more than five hundred dollars to
me. I spent much money doctoring
for a bad case of stomach trouble,
to little purpose. 1 then tried Elec
tric Bitters, and they cured me. I
now take them as a tonic, and they
keep me strong and well.” 50c at
Dawson Drug €o’s.
Reduced Postage Rates.

That Dawson merchants are not

confidence of their customers to the
fullest extent is shown by a recent
purchase by C. G. Lewis & Bro.
They have just received a bran
new weighing machine which almost
thinks for itself. It not only weighs,
but computes the cost, showing the
exact amount of the purchase in
dollars and cents without any hand
or mental operation whatever. You
just place the commodity on the
platform and the scale does the rest.
Customers always like to see just
what they are getting, and on this
scale the amount is plainly indicated
on the customers’ side of the device.
This fixture will make a handsome
furnishing for Messrs. Lewis Bros’.

That Monument, Slab, or Head and Foot Stone you have in
the cemetery to mark the last resting place of your loved
ones. It has become dirty, stained and faded to tae extent
that the dead seems to have almost been forgotten by the
living. Having prepared myself at considerable expense to
do this work, I wish to say that I am ready to do you a
first-class job in every particular without any injury whatever
to the monument, making it look as good and fresh as the
day it was put up, and at the right price.
Owing to the many different sizes, shapes and conditions
I would have to see the work before I could make a price.
Therefore, I ask the small favor that you let me hear from
you, after which I will call in person for particulars, either
in town or the country. 1 will do one job free in each cem
etery upon the dec’sion of your sexton as to the monument
needing it the worst. Now being a good time to do such
work let me hear from you at once, and let’s get the good
work started. Respectfully,
