He Leaves His Clothes on tlOank. Writes a Farewell Epistle, and Seeks a Watery Grave Atlanta Capitol: This morning Mr. Wm. Pair, who runs the pond at Ponce de Leon Springs, arrived there at 6 o’clock, a little earlier than common, in order to superintend the cleaning out of the ditch at the head of the dam. As he approached the shed to put away his basket contain ing his dinner, a tall and slender built young man wearing a black mous tache, came out of the shed, partially undressed and approached the pond. Upon seeing Mr. Pair, he re-entered the shed and as he approached him be asked, “Is this your pond ?” “Yes,” replied Mr. Pair. “Well, I thought I would take a bath this morning,” said the young man. “All right,” replied Mr. Pair, as he started out. “How deep is it ?” asked the stranger. “About 12 feet. Can you swim?” “Oh, yes”—doubtless the last words uttered by the young man. Mr. Pair went to look after the work, and returned in about a half an hour, when, to his surprise, he was nowhere to be seen. He waited a few minutes, and still not seeing him, he called out for him. The echo of his voice sounding through the woods was the only reply he received. Mr. Pair became uneasy and summoned the darkey that was working on the ditch and together they commenced a search for the missing man. His clothes were hanging in the sned as he had left them. Not a drop of water was to be seen on the platform or steps, show ing that he had never touched land after entering the water. Mr. Pair and the darkey commenced feeling around in the water with a long pole, but could find no traces of the man. Officer Green, who was in charge of Ponce de Leon grounds, was im mediately notified and the clothes were turned over to him. In the pockets were found several letters and a wallet containing a ten dollar and a due dollar bill On the wallet was scratched two names, J. W. Vaughn and Anna Blanton. A letter was found in the pocket addressed to S. E. Vaughn, at Talbot ton, Ga. It was couched in very affectionate terms and assured his brother that he was heartily sick of life. He had determined to shorten his days, for he knew if he lived and got well he would be a disgrace to his family, and his life would be a burden to him. His sickness was evidently the cause of rash act. Another letter in his pocket was from C. N. Vaughn, another brother living in Florida; and there also a letter from Anna Blanton, who was evidently the sick man’s sister. The Florida brother assured his brother that he wanted very much to see him, and that if he didn’t get any better he would come and see him if he had to walk part of the way. I Mr. Vaughn was under treatment at the surgical institute. His home was in Fiorella, Butts county, Ga., where he had been in business with his brother. He had evidently been I contemplating self-destruction for several days, for he has been seen early in the morning at Ponce de Leon two or three times. He first went to Angier's pond, this morning, and finding the keeper there, he turned away, remarking that he would go over to the other pond, as he didn't like to go in where a' y one was. His clothes were very neat and well kept. No efforts had Deen made towards uncovering the body up to 12 o’clock to-day. The police and the coroner have been notified and are making preparations to recover the body this -afternoon. Thousands of Dollars. I Gentleman XVho Has Readied the Pnipli et’s Age. JAMES C. DUNLAP. Almost three score years and ten have pass - ed over the head of James C. Dunlap; the frosts of seventy winters have served to whiten his locks, and the warmth and gladness of as many summers have pre served in him their geniality and friendly spirit. Man’s allotted time of life has been given him and he is yet as hale and as hearty as if he was prepared to double the prophet’s age. He lives at 264 East Cain Street, Atlanta, with his worthy wife and family. “My wife has,” said Mr. Dunlap, recently “for the past three years been a great suffer er from rheumatism. The disease attacked her in the sciatic form, and caused her terrible suffering. She was tortured almost all the time, although we did everything in our power to alleviate her pains. The disease appeared to have a firm hold upon her, and last summer and fall she suffered the most excruciating painsand agony. Her system offered little or no resistance to the ravages of tins disease We almost despaired of relieving her of its clutches, and it was with heavy hearts and little faith we began the use of Hunnicutt’s Rheumatic Cure, at the earnest solicitation of our friends last December. The effect of the medicine was almost miraculous. She began to improve at almost the first dose, ami although at this time she has only taken throe bottles, I can truthfully say that thousands of dollars would not express the good it has accomplished for her. Her rheumatic pains and twinges have entirely disappeared. It is certainly a wonderful remedy, and I desire to be put upon record assaying that any person who allows a friend to suffer from the ravages of disease when a specific of this kind can be procured from any drug store of this broad land of ours, at the trifling price of one dollar a bottle, within the reach of even the poorest, is naught but a criminal.” Manufactured by J.

Evening News: During the past week Judge H. D. D. Twiggs, attor ney for Preston Valentine, filed a motion in the Suparior Court asking for a new trial in the case of Valentine, who was convicted of murder and confined in jail to await the 2d of July when the execution was ordered to take place. It is generally thought bv the public that Judge Roney will not grant a new trial, but the attorneys for the murderer will carry the c: s>. to the Supreme Court. Consequently the execution will not take place cn the 2d day of July, and it will tale possibly six months before the case can reach the Supreme Court and be finally decided. Judge Roney overruled the motion to-day and the case will be carried to the Supreme Court. —Fab better than the harsh treatment of medicines which horribly gripe the patient and destroy the coating of the stomach.

SMITH & CO., Manufacturers and Calo c rop;.. CT. LOUIS. MO, NOT SEARED- BIT THE HEART-THROBS OF TRIE MAXHOOD. Sparta, Ga., Sept, 22,1885.—T0 the Constitution, Atlanta, —Were I to pratice deception in a case like this, 1 would think that my heart bad be come seared beyond recognition. To bo guilty of bearing false testi mony, thereby imperilling the lives of my fellow-men, would place me beaeath the dignity of n gentleman. The facts which I disclose are en dorsed and vouched for by the cuni munity in which I live, and I trust they may avert the influence intend ed. , For twenty long years I have suffered untold tortures from a terri ble pain ami weakness in the small of my back, which resisted all modesand manner of treatment. For it long time the horrifying’ pangs of al, eating cancer ot my lower lip has added to my misery and suffering. This encroaching, burning and painful sore on my lip was pro nounced Epithelial Cancer by the prominent physicians in this section, which stubbornly resisted the best medical talent. About eighteen months ago a cutting, piercing pain located in my breast, which could not be allayed by the use of ordinary modes of treatment. These sufferings of misery and prostrations became so great that, on the 18th of last July, a leading physi cian said that I could not live longer I than four days, and I had about given jup in despair. The burning and ex cruciating ravages of the cancer, the painful condition of my back and breast, and the rapid prostration of my whole system combined to make me a mere wreck of former manhood. While thus seemingly suspended on a thread between life and death, I commenced the use of B. B. 8., the grandest blood medicine, to mo and iny household, ev.r used. The effect was wonderful—it was magical. The excruciating pains which had tormented me by day and by night for twenty years were soon held in abeyance, and peace and comfort were restored to a suffering man, the cancer commenced healing, strength was imparted to my feeble frame, and when eight bottles had been used I was one of the happiest of men, and felt about as well as I ever did. All pain bad vanished, the cancer on my lip healed, and I was pronounc ed cured. To those who are afflict ed, and need a blood reined}', I urge the use of B. B. B. as a wonderfully effective, speedy and cheap blood purifier. Allen Grant. Sparta, Ga., September 22, 1885. I saw Mr. Allen Grant, when ho was suffering with epithelial cancer of under lip, and after using the B. B. B. medicine, as stated above, I find him now almost if not perfectly cured. Signed, J. T.

I often saw Mr. Allen Grant when suffering from epithelioma, and from the extent of the cancer thought he wonld soon die. He now appears perfectly well, and I consider it a most wonderful cure.
