DUCK HUNTERS’
GHASTLY FIND
PARTY OF MACON GENTLEMEN
RETUR# FROM A SUCCESSFUL
DUCK HUNT ON LAKE MICCABU-
KEE. IN FLORIDA.
A party of Macon gentlemen return
ed yeaterday morning from Florida
from their annual duck hunt, bringing
with them some one hundred and
alghty mallards.
They were Messrs. Ed Loh. Walter
Huff and Heiney Merkel. The hunt
waa a fine ona In many respecta. and
the members of the party thoroughly
enjoyed every minute of if, with Just
one exception. This was a most grew-
some find.
The party was In the gray of the
morning on Lake Mlceasukee skirting
the edges to get to their blinds, poling
through the mass of wator lilies ana
cane and brush, with Andrew Smith
the negro, who always goes on these
trips as cook and paddler. They came
acroee a dark object In the water, and
the first thought was that it was an
alligator, and yet this seemed strange,
for In the visits to this lake for the
past years no alligator had ever been
! eocn. The morning was not yet 'quite
: light enough for them to distinguish
. the object, and ordinarily*they would
1 hav* passed on without giving It a
! thought, but there was a something
that made them Investigate. Andrew
struck the object with his pole, but it
gave bark no evidence of bolng alive.
Mr. Loh. Impelled by that unknown
something, told Andrew to pull back to
It. and this ho did. A light wss
struck, and there was the dead body
of a negro woman, floating In the wa
ter, the body on lta aide, one half
exposed. There Is no telling what
Andy would have done if a landing
could have been offected.
Itofore leaving the town of Mlccasu
kee the members of the party had heard
of n brutal murder having been com-
j mltted some two weeks before, and tht»
' belief that the body had been thrown
! Into the Inke. but they had also heard
that the lake had been searched atl
] through Its entire tength of nine miles
; without success. Even with this
knowledge. It never occurred to the
party that the dark and strango look
. Ing object they encountered was tha9
' of the woman.
I A reward of fifty dollars had been
j offered by the authorities for the re
; covery of tho body, and the party at
' lowed Andrew to claim It. he being tho
man who first saw and called atten-
tlon to the body.
The woman hnd been murdered bv a
negro man. and he with others sup
posed to bo connected with the crime,
had their commitment trial on I^Ht
Thursdny. The body had been In the
water Homcthtng over ten days.
The ghastly flnd somewhat threw
damper on the morning's hunt, but •
next day each had recovered his com
posure. and the result was tho bagging
of a goodly number of ducks.
This lake Is eight miles from Met
calf. In Jefferson county, and Is on the
line of the new railroad out of Thom-
asville. It Is one of the most re
markable bodies of water In Florida.
Some ^ears ago there was a public
wagon rond where the lake Is now,
between two high hills, of the fow
hllla In the state. There proved to be
a subterranean stream that found at
outlet In this roadway, and it grad
ualiy filled It and gradually the lake
was formed.

NERVOUS
DYSPEPSIA
Peculiar Origin of Many Cases
of This Trouble.
Its Victims Are Often Healthy.
Looking and Otherwise Well
Except for This Distress
ing Affliction.
Nervous dyspepsia, unlike other
forma of Indigestion. Is a disease*of
the nerves, not of the stomach. It Is
most frequent In highly emotional or
•hysterical persons and is brought on
by any mental shock or excess, worry,
excess!vs grief, or sudden excitement.
Its victims are usually healthy-looklng
and have generally reached the age of
maturity.
Being a disease of jthe nerves it must
be treated by strengthening the nerves
and the use of argood nerve tonic, such
as Dr. Williams* Pink Pills, together
with a generous and nourishing diet,
is the correct home treatment.
After suffering with nervous Indi
gestion for over two years Mrs. George
P. Martin, of No. 16 Admiral street.
New Haven, Conn., tried Dr. Williams'
Pink PJlla. She tells of the great
benefit she received as follows:
"Following a severe run-down condl<
tlon 1 began to suffer with nervous In
digestion. Food distressed me so much
that It was with difficulty I could drink
water and I had to live on milk in
most entirely. I lost in weight and
strength. I was so nervous that 1
could not bear to have any one visit
me. I could not sleep nights or If I
did I would wake up suddenly with a
startled feeling. Whenever I ate much
my stomach would* bloat and there
would be gas on It. Oftentimes I had
to vomit to get relief. On going up
stairs or In over-working I was cer
tain to have palpitation of the heart.
J had dull, alck headaches which last
ed for two or three days. During these
attacks I was unable to do my house
work. I felt sick all over and wanted
to be undisturbed.
‘The doctor's medicine failed to help
me after a trial of over three months.
I read about Dr. Williams* Pink Pills
In a newspaper and .began using them.
1 noticed a difference after I had taken
only a few boxes and was cured when
I hnd given the pills a good trial. My
cure has been permanent but I keep
Dr. Williams' rink Pills on hand to
use as a tonic.**
Dr. Williams* Pink Pills are useful
In cases of acid stomach and in the
treatment of over-sensitive stomachs
In which the slightest irritation causes
painful gnawing or burning sensations.
This condition Uncommon among grow
ing girls.
Sufferers from dyspepsia In nny
form, who have found their condition
unrelieved or actually growing worse
while using ordinary remedies, would
do weir to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.
They ore sold by all druggists or di
rect by mall, postpaid, on receipt of
price, 50c per box: six boxes. 12.50. A
diet book will be sent free, on appli
cation to the Dr. Williams Medicine

Distinguished Chinaman Takes
Great Interest in Cotton
Seed Products N
ATLANTA, Oa.. Nov. 12—LI Sum
Ling. th« distinguished Chinese editor
of the Hong Kong (China) Daily Mall,
has continued his tour of the south by
going from this city to New Orleans,
where he will attend the meeting of
the National Farmers’ Union In ses
sion there, to still ■ further study the
cotton crop situation from those rep-*
resen tat Ives.
In Atlanta Mr. LI (pronounced Lee)
became Intensely interested in the
south’s moat recent gain from the cot
ton field, the'use of the cotton seed.
In company with W. M. Hutchin
son and T. S. Kenan, both of the
Cotton Seed Crushers' Association, he
was taken to a cotton good oil mill
near the city and shown the process
by which the, seeds are unloaded from
the cars, rie-ltntod. oaparated from
their trash and hulls, and meats cooked
and then pressed so ga.to extract the
cotton see l oil, leaving the cotton seed
oak* which la ground up lnto-«otton
seed meal.
Ths process of refining this olL con
verting It into m condiment the equal
If not superior of olive oil. Into a cook-
Ing oil and lta other useo were also
shown to him. The cotton stfed meal
was secured for him and the various
mixtures for the making of the south's
favorite cattle feed. With him was A.
G. Fez, special correspondent of the
New York Herald, who also manifest
ed a lively interest in tho process.
Mr. 14 waa so interested that he
took aamplea of an the various steps
In the process, all the literature he
could ret on the subject*, samples of
the oils and meal which he expressed
direct to his brother In Hong Kong, a
Chinese oil broker. He will write a
special article for hla paper on the sub
ject and will do all he can to Intro
duce these southern products there.
He declares there Is a great field for
them and that the opening of the Pan
ama canal will low.-r the freight and
make more acceesible.
