SEABOARD MAKES A CUT.
Oct. 15.— Lawlessness
near Richmond, in the
nf this county. Several
West Ethridge rode up
behind Abie Coleman, a wealthy farm-
r, and blew the top of his head off with
donble-barrcl shotgun. He has man-
iged to elude arrest.
Later, Barrett Duckworth, Coleman’s
laxly servant, was assasinated in his
liogse, and public opinion laid the crime
at Ethridge’s bands.
A month ago Shelley Stunner, a
nephew of Ethridge, was killed by
Charles Nelson, a relative of Duck
worth.
Last night Frank Banks, a cousin of
Nelson, was shot down front the dark
ness while standing in the door of his
home.
All of the murders are thought to
have grown out of the Ethridge-Coleman
killing. Not an arrest has so far been
made, although officers have made re
peated raids. It is stated that a pro
minent citizen of the neighborhood,
who has condemned the lawlessness,
has had his life threatened. The neigh
borhood is ill a state of terror.
No trouble is more common or more
misunderstood than nervous dyspepsia.
People 1 laving it gunk that their nerves
are to blame and are surprised that they
are not cured by nerve medicine and
spring remedies; the real seat of the
mischief is lost sight of, the stomach is
the organ to he looked after.
N ervous dyspeptics often do not have
any pain whatever in the stomach, nor
perhaps any of the usual symptoms of
stomach weakness. Nervous dyspepsia
shows itself not in the stomach so much
:is in nearly everyother organ ; in some
eases the heart palpitates and is irregu
lar ; in others the kidneys are effected;
in others the bowels are constipated,
with headaches; still others are troubled
with loss of flesh and appetite, with ac-
umulation of gas, sour risings and
heartburn.
Mr. A. W. Sharper of No. til Prospect
St., Indianapolis, Iud., writes as follows:
“A motive of pure gratitude prompts
me to write these few line regarding the
new and valuable mediciue, Stuart’s
Dyspepsia Tablets. I have been a suffer-
r from nervous dyspepsia for the last
four years; have used various patent
medicines and other remedies without
any favorable result. They sometimes
gave temporary relief until the effects of
the medicine wore off. I attributed this
to my sedentary habits, lieiug a lxxik-
keeper with little physical exercise, but
I am glad to state that the tablets have
overcome all these obstacles, for I have
gainc in flesh, sleep better, and am bet
ter in every way. The above is written
not for notoriety, but Ls based on actual
fact.”
R<*spcctfnlly yours,
A. \V. Sharper,
Cl Prosjiect St., Indianapolis, Ind.
It is safe to say that Stnart’s Dyspepsia
Tablets will cure any stomach weakness

MR. ROSE, WRITES A CARD-
freight Rates Reduced and a Rate War Will
Soon Be On.
Norfolk, Va., Oct. 15.—Once more the
Seaboard Air-Line and the combination
of its big rivals headed by the Southern
railway, are engaged in a battle royal.
Open war has again lieen dt>clared and
rhe tight will probably Ik* one to the
death.
The circular just issued by the Sea
board announcing a differential passen
ger tariff on through and local businesses
and the reduction of 83 1-8 per cent, in
fares contained therein is tne first shot
in what may terminate iu a long contin
ued struggle between the associated rail
ways which have refused to haul the
Seaboard through cars.
The rates are subject to change, and
this phrase, as defined by General Pas
senger Agent Anderson tonight, means
that the Seaboard will cut as ofteu. as
its lower rates are met by its oompetitom
in' order t-o preserve the differential
feature.

We live in a country of which the
principal scourge is stomach-trouble.
It is more wide-spread than any other
disease, and, very nearly, more danger
ous.
One thing that makes it so dangerous
is that it is so little understoixl.
If it were better understood, it would
be more feared, more easily cured, less
universal than it is now.
So, those who wish to be cured, take
Shaker Digestive Cordial, because it
gix-s to the root of the trouble as no
other medicine does. The pure, harm
less, curative herbs and plants, of which
it is composed, are what render it so
certain and, at the same time, so gentle
a cure.
It helps and strengthens the stomach,
purities and tones up the system.

There seems to be no doubt but that
the State University has a warm fight
ahead concerning the retention of the
agricultural fowl. . *
The coming session of the legislature
will witness that fight aud it will be
full of interest.
A writer in the Constitution says of
this matter:
“As to the work of the general assem
bly there is promise of two warm fights
early in the session, and if these are in
dicative of what will come, the fall
meeting in Georgia will be as lively as a
basket of roasted chestnuts.
The Blalock committee is to throw
down the first gauntlet when the recom
mendation comes that the federal appro
priation shall lie taken from the State
University aud put to other uses. Just
after this report is acted upon there will
be introduced a bill providing for the
erection liy the state of an agricultural
college where the practical science of
the plow is to be taught. This bill is to
be framed by Hon. Pope Brown, of Pu
laski. He lias interested himself iu the
question at hand quite actively between
sessious.-and during July made a trip
the Mississippi college presided over
by General Stephen D. Lee, where the
practical art of tilling the fertile globe is
taught. He returned enthused over the
idea of putting such an institution iu
Georgia, and at the State Agricultural
Convention, which met at Tyliee, told
his associates of the discoveries he had
made in the line of instructing the idea
the farmer lad how to shoot.
“Mr. Brown believes that outside of
tlie University there shonhl he an insti ;
tutiou especially devoted to the fanners,
where practical agriculture should be
taught. With others he avows that he
no enemy of the University, but will
he willing to vote for an appropriation
substitute the deficiency made iu case
of the withdrawal of the federal funds.
All friends of the University are
going to get in line against this move
ment, for they know that recently a
new fann has been purchased where ex-
periiiiehtal and practical work has been
done. During the present term great
interest will be centered on this line of
ork aud although the farm will not
be ready for occupancy until the first of
December, those taking the course of
agriculture are already far advanced.
This feature of the assembly, however,
to be one fight.”

WHAT IS YOUR TRADE?
Each Trade or Occnpatlin Has It* Special
It is well know among medical men
that certain diseases are mare readily
developed in certain occupations than in
others. That each occupation has its at.
tendant physical weakness. Engineers,
railroad men and similar occupations
suffer mostly from kidney-troubles and
men who are often exposed to the
weather suffer from rheumatism, while
clerks aud professional men, in fact the
army of people whose business keeps
them indoors, are oftentimes great suf
ferers from piles and constipation. In
this connection the following letter is of
interest to people whose occupation will
not allow sufficient outdoor exercise.
Mr. Ar F.. Calhoun, notary public and
jeweler and watchmaker of Circleville,
W. Va., writes as follows;
I liad been a severe sufferer from piles
for years and had tried many remedies
with but little benefit, when about three
years ago I saw the Pyramid Pile Cure
advertised and sent for it.
I was badly afflicted when I got them,
hut after only two applications the piles
disappeared and from that day to this I
have never felt a symptom of the disease.
I feel that I cannot recommend them
too highly to sufferers from piles.
The Pyramid Pile Cure is free from
cocaine, opium or any mineral poison,
absolutely safe, pleasant and painless;
sold by druggists at 60 cents per package.
If there is any constipation the Pyramid
Pills should he used with the pile cure.
The pills are 25 cents per package.
Any druggist will tell you that the
Pyramid is the best kuowu aud most
successful and popular pile cure ever
placed on the market and its reputation
a safe and radical cure has only result-
from the personal recommendation of
people who have been cured of this dis
tressing ailment.

Quite a number of new chapters were

A few weeks ago the editor was taken
with a very severe cold that caused him
to he in a most miserable condition. It
wastuidonbledly a bad case of fa grippe
and recognizing it as dangerous he took
immediate steps to bring about a speedy
cure. From the advertisement of Cham
berlain’s Cough Remedy and the many
good recommendations included therein,
we concluded to make a first trial of the
medicine. To say that it was satis
factory in its results, is putting it very
•mildly, indeed. It acted like magic and
the result was a speedy and permanent
cure. We have no hesitancy in recom
mending this excellent Cough Remedy

“The people of Harmony Grove, and
especially those who travel more or less,

lie will give us commencing tomorrow

“He will give us four passenger trains

not have to wait always for freight to
be loaded and unloaded aud after you
start you will not be always in reaching
your destination.
“The noon train will make connections
at Athens. with the south- bouud Sea
board train giving us an opportunity of
making the trip to Atlanta by day and
as cheap.
“Besides this we will have one freight
train each way a day. This will give us
our freight earlier and will be a great

by his careful and skillful management

Appear In the Classic City.
Miss Blair has scores of friends and
admirers here who will be glad to learn
of her successful starring tour and will
undoubtedly give her a hearty welcome
when she appears in our city. Eugenie
Blair is an unusually beautiful woman,
endowed with rare artistic talent aud
fine dramatic ability. She understands
thoroughly the art of dressing, and her
superb costumes have always aroused
admiration. Possessed of more than
ordinary magnetism, Miss Blair seems
of late to have greatly advanced in the
art of deeply thrilling an audience with
out even a trace of effort that is apparent
upon the surface.
She is particularly happy in the por
trayal of pathos, her rich voice and ex
pressive face doing admirable service.
The repertoireh«v» been especially chosen
for the display of the qualities which go
to make the success of this clever ac
tress. “Camille,” “JaneEyre,” “Mercy
Merrick” iu “The New Magdalen,”
Galatea,” “The Iron. Master,"” are all
within the easy range of Miss Blair’s
ability and are in themselves all popular
and standard dramas, aud in their pro
duction every care has been taken to
render them as nearly perfect as possi
ble. Miss Blair’s artistic temperament
too conscientious to permit anything
to be done badly and she has lieen very
careful in the selection of her company,
all of whom are trained and fitted for
the proper presentation of these plays.
The engagement is for next Tuesday
