In passing Mr. Garrard’s milli

swarm of customers in the sales

must have pretty hats. And they

In another column will be found
the announcement of Tax Receiver,
M. D. McOsker who offers for re
election, Mr. McOsker has served
the county for one term and has
made it a model officer. He has
not only been faithful, but vigilant
and has run down many a dollars
worth of values and had them put
on the returns. He deserves re-elec
tion at the hands of his constitu
ents and I am of the opinion that
he will reap the reward.

I was in at Mrs. Wardlaw’s yes
terday for a moment, you know,
its kinder resting to me to drop in
among all those pretty hats and
feast my eyes and try to imagine
how cute an editor’s wife would

Last Week’s Grand Jury, with
Capt J. B, Patton as foreman, was
a grand jury right. TheX cohered
much teritoy and brought in their
presentments in a business like
shape.

Among other things, I notice
that they report having examined
the books of the county officers
and that they found all those
books in apple pie order. And
then they make especial mention
of the books of Tax Colector Black
and say that they are ivmtly and
correctly kept an i that Mr. Black
has made model officer.
* **
Then they roast the previous
Grand jury for some of its clumsy
work and crude repoits, also for
hanging on too long and running
the county to needless expense of
SFO per day. Every body knows that
John J. Black is a model‘Tax Co!—
ector and—if every body dont
vote for his re-el lection—they’ will
most.

Knocked Out by Girls.
Sisterville, W. Va., Nov., 17.
Last n'ght just as the family was
retired, three men forced their
way into the residence of the ven
erable Robert Stathers, at this
place, and began to loot the prem
ises despite the protests of the old
gentleman.
Two of the men ascended the
stairs where they were met by two
of the Misses Strathers. One of the
gir’s knocked a robber down stairs
with a chair, while the other was
grabbed by the second man, and
both rolled to the bottom. Mean
while Mr. Strathers had knocked
out the third man with a poker,
and with the girls was proceeping
to charge the other two when they
fled.

MALICIOUS MISCHIEF.
Effingham, 111., Nov., 17.—An
interesting case was decided in the
County Court today. Last Decora
tion Day at Altamont, Effingham
County, S.N. Sapp, a furniture
dealer, decorated his business
front with a fllag that contained
the names of Cleveland and Ste
venson.
WhilS Sapp was away from his
premises, 11. Brown andS. L. Ra
ney, two G. A. R. men, took the
flag down, and tore the names of
Cleveland and Stevenson off and
replaced it in position.
Sapp had the two men arrested
for malicious mischief, and today
a jury found them guilty and a
fine of $3 each was assessed
again at them.
The case stirred up much polit
cal feeling because of the prom
inence of the parties, all being lead
mg business men of Altamont.
The trial of the case attracted a
large attendance. The case will be
appealed to the Supreme Court.
STILL BURYINGTHE CZAR
St. Petersburg, November 16.
Two religious services for the re
pose of the soul of Czar Alexander
were held in the cathedral of St
Peter and St. Paul today. During
the services the general public was
not allowed in the building.
At other times throughout the
day, however, great crowds were
in waiting to file past the bier
and take their last Icok at the face
of the dead Emperor.
So great was the throng that long
lines were lormed outside the ca
thedral, the people waiting patient
ly for admission into the sacred
structure. Both ol the religious
services were attended by all the |
members of the imperial family '
who are in St. Petersburg.
Every mother should know that
croup cau be prevented. The first
symptom of true croup is horse
ness. This is follow ed by apeculi
srrounh cough. If Chamberlains
C mgh Remedy is given freely as
soon as ths child becomes hoarse or
even after the cough has develop
ed it will prevent the attack. 2
