reached this city and were met by her
people from Eton.
Mrs. Lawson is said to have been
ill with tuberculosis and was on her
way to Texas, where she hoped to re
cuperate and gain strength.
She and the two children were
driven to Dalton yesterday and
placed aboard the train. By the time
they reached Chattanooga she was
dead and the body was removed there
and the children, both very small,
were turned over to the Vine Street

HIGHWAYMAN
SHOOTS MAN
AND GETS s4l
MR. ROBERT SMITHY SAYS A
ROBBER RELIEVED HIM OF
HIS ROLL AND THEN SHOT
HIM IN LEG—WOUND WILL
NOT PROVE DANGEROUS
ASSAILANT NOT YET KNOWN.
Robbed of all his money and final
ly shot in the leg by some unknown
party was the double misfortune
which is said to have befallen Mr.
Robert Smithy last night.
Mr. Smithy is a well known resi
dent of North Dalton and last night
he is said to .have spent a short
while on the lot down town where the
merry-go-round is in operation.
According to the story given the
police, Mr. Smithy started home and
when he reached a point near the
old brick store, he was halted by an
unknown man and held up for his
money, which amounted to about s4l.
After the robber had secured the
cash it is said that he told Mr. Smithy
to run and pulling a pistol, shot him
in the leg.
The wound, while painful is said
to be not a very serious one and Mr.
Smithy is expected to recover in a
reasonable time.
The police believe that while Mr.
Smithy was at the amusement grounds
some one must have seen that he had
money on his person and followed
him, awaiting an opportunity to hold
him up.
The police are on the trail of the
robber and may larid him in a short
time.
There is more catarrh in this sec
tion of the country than all other
diseases put together, and until the
last few years was supposed to be in
curable. For a great many years doc
tors pronounced it a local disease and
prescribed local remedies, and by con
stantly failing to cure by local reme
dies, pronounced it incurable. Science
has proven catarrh to be a constitu
tional disease and therefore required
constitutional treatment, Hall’s cat
arrh Cure, manufactured by F. J.
Cheney & Co., Toledo, 0., is the only
constitutional cure on the market. It
is taken internally in doses from 10
drops to a teaspoonful. It acts di
rectly on the blood and mucous sur
faces of the system. They offer one
hundred dollars for any ease it fails
to cure. Send for circulars and testi
monials. Address F. J. Cheney & Co.,
Toledo, Ohio.

pation.
SMALL FIRE DAMAGE
AT DALTON BUGCY CO.
From now on every time B. A.
Tyler hears a fire bell he will in all
probability smell smoke.
He had a second scare last night
when the rear end of his storage ware
house caught on fire. The building
was filled with wagons and buggies,
but the flames which begun in the
eves of the roof were quickly ex
tinguished and the damage was slight.
During Dalton’s recent disastrous
fire Mr. Tyler’s store burned to the
ground but he succeeded in saving
nearly all of his stock.
When You Think . |L-.
Os the pain which many women experience with every \ !
month it makes the gentleness and kindness always associ

not gladly be free from this recurring period of pain. HHBm 4

ARGUS PLANT
IS SUED TO
JOHNSTONE
DEAL CONSUMMATED TODAY
BY WHICH THIS NEWSPAPER
PASSES INTO HANDS OF FOR
MER MANAGER OF PEORIA
ILL. HERALD-TRANSCRIPT.
With this issue the plant of the
Daily and Weekly Argus passes out of
the hands of Mr. B. L. Heartsill and
will in the future be owned and
controlled by Mr. R. A. Johnstone,
formerly of Peoria, 111.
Mr. Heartsill has been the owner
and editor of The Argus for about
ten and a half years and has built up
the property until the paper has to
day a constituency extending all
over North Georgia and into adjoining
states and Texas.
Two years ago last December Mr.
Heartsill conceived the idea of pub
lishing a daily newspaper and how
well that venture has succeeded is
proven by the fact that the paper lived
add grew and prospered and is today
the leading newspaper in North Geor
gia.
Mr. Johnstone, who takes active
charge today, is an experienced news
paper man, having recently managed
the Peoria Herald-Transcript and pre
viously having had a wide experience
in the field of daily journalism ,in
several northern and western cities.
The deal, although not completed un
til today, will take effect as though
it had been consummated on July Ist.
This gives the new owner an even
stari on the first of the month and
is intended to simplify the accounting
necessary to the change.
All accounts, advertising and job
work, due The Argus prior to July
first, will be paid to Mr. Heartsill.
All subsequent accounts will be col
lected by Mr. Johnstone.
The subscription lists will be
turned over as they are, all amounts
due on the lists and books as turned
over will be payable to Mr. John
stone.
When the stomach fails to perform
its functions, the bowels become de
ranged, the liver and the kidneys
congested causing numerous diseases.
The stomach and liver must be re
stored to a healthy condition and
Chamberlain’s Stomach and Liver
Tablets can be depended upon to do it.
Easy to take and most effective. Sold
by all dealers.
THOMAS DRY GOODS
COMPANY TO OPEN
The Thomas Dry Goods Company,
which was destroyed in Dalton’s big
fire, will be ready to open again on
next Monday, July 10.
Mr. Thomas has secured the old
Petty store at the corner of Hamilton
and Cuyler streets and is now laying
in a stock of handsome new goods
preparatory for his opening day.
The full line will be in their hands
by the appointed day and business will
proceed as usual.
Moran may have had a sane Fourth,
but it was not a safe one.
