Nick Wilburn for
Slaying of King
MADISON, Dec. 16.—Nick Wil
burn's motion for a new trial, now
under sentence of death for killing
James King, in Jones County, was
overruled tyere by Judge James B.
Park.
In his argument John R. Cooper,
attorney for Wilburn, stated that the
only evidence brought forth in the
trial was the confession of the pris
oner himself while in duress, and that
it seemed forced upon him. He also
referred to the fact that Mrs. King
was given her liberty, when, he de
clared, she was the more guilty of the
t wo.
Solicitor Joseph E. Bottle, repre
senting the State, said no man ever
got a fairer trial than Nick Wilburn;
that his confession was made vol
untarily and free from any kind of
intimidation.

Cured His RUPT0RF.
T was badly ruptured while lifting a '
trunk several years ago. Doctors said ]
my only hope of cure was an operation .
Trusses did me no good. Finally l got
hold of something that quickly ami
completely cured tfte. Years have passed
and Ihe rupture has never returned, al
though I am doing hard work* as a car
penter. There was no operation, no
lost time, no trouble. I have nothing
to sell, but will give full information
about how you may find a complete
cure without operation, if you write to
me, Eugene M. Pullen, Carpenter, 745
Mareellus avenue, Manasquan, N. J.
Better cut out this notice and show it
to any others who are ruptured—you
may save a life or at least stop the
misery of rupture and the worry and
danger of an operation.—Advt.
