tagOnist. Bailey. however, declined the
challenge, and went home and armed
himself and Suttles, in the meantime,
went to Flannery's store; Bailey re-
turned in the resi- of the store, and as
Suttles was i'm the act of stepping off the
porch, Bailey assaulted him with a large
knife in one hand and a pistol, Bailey
fired, the bali taking sffect in his right
arm, producing q compound fracture.
Suttles then fired, when both parties
dropped their pistols, Bailey rushing on
Suttles with his knife, cutting him in
the race, end stabbing him several times
in the body. He then seized Suttles's
pistol and fired four shots into mis- body,
killing him instantly. Bailey made his
escape.

Is the sheet-anehOr of the feeble and

the aged and languid, it has no equal
among stOmachlcs. As a remedy for the
nervous weakness to which women are
especially subject, it is superseding
every other stimulant. In all climates,
tropical, temperate or frigid, it acts as 3
specific in every species Of disorder
which undermines the bodily strength,
