Ran Oown a Wild Turkey.
Some time ago—no matter how
long—Mr, W. Lennon and Mr.
Daniel J. Henderson went turkey
hunting. They are fine shots, both
of them, but on this particular oc¬
casion they did not do any shooting.
; Before reaching the swamp they
“flushed” some turkeys, one of
which—a big, fat one—did not rise,
but ran toward the swamp. They
determined to capture him alive.
To do this they had to keep him on
the run, but not get too close, to
force him to fly. The result was,
before the victim reached the swamp
he’ was too fagged out to make the
short but swift run necessary to en¬
able-kirn to rise, and they closed in
on him and captured him.
The arrest to-day of Marion Win¬
ter, an old.negro of Marion county,
on the.charge of passing counterfeit
m ohm;, brings to light a unique
case, says the Savannah News. A
few days ago bright, shining coins
made their appearance in Buena
Vista,, Winter’s home. The coins,
Unita&i States money, woro dated
back in the ’30’s. They were sus¬
piciously new looking. The banks
refused to take them and this led to
an investigation. It developed that
Winter was'the man responsible for
the circulation of the new-looking
money, and his arrest ensued. Win¬
ter is an unsophisticated looking
country darkey, and he says that
some of the money was given him
by his father and that he earned
some when a young man, He
packed it away to reserve it for old
age. He kept 340 bright half dol¬
lars in a candy jar, buried under his
house. With the coming of old
he needed the money and so he dug
up bis treasure the other day, only
to into trouble.

served that-the attack was never fol¬
lowed by that disease when Cham¬
berlain's Cough Remedy was used.

dangerous disease. It is the
