ROBBERY AND ATTEMPTED MUIR.
DER IN LAFRENCE.

News reached here last Thursday morn
ing of dastardly outrage which had
been perpetrated in the northeastern pOr-
tion of Lawrence county on the day pre-
vious. On Tuesday, 18th, q negro man,
about 26 years of age, giving his name as
John Brown, went TO the house of an old
and highly respected farmer named
Marvin Tyler and asked for work, which
ing for him to do. He went away and
next day returned and asked Mrs. Tyler
for her husband, and finding him absent
at the gin some distance away, and
no one about the house but the aged
matron, he felled her to the floor by a
blow on the head with billet of wood
and then proceeded to rob the house, TAX
ing therefrom watch and chain, a
shotgun, etc. Failing to find any mon
ey during his search, he again attacked
Mrs. Tyler and beat her with a stick, in
order to maxi her tell where it was, but
she failed to give the desired information,
and when he turned away and renewed
his search, she succeeded in making her
escape unObserved to the residence of her
son, some half mile distant.
The negro is supposed to be one Bill
Berry, twice convicted criminal, who
escaped few months ago from the Law
renee county Jail, after being sentenced
to the State Penitentiary, to which he was
already due an unexpired term. He is
described as copper cOlored, about five
feet ten inches high aud rather slender.
He is sill at large, but is known to have
passed from the scene of the outrage to-
ward Rockport, and it is thought has
since been seen in Hazlehurst. Every
effort should be made to capture and
bring the scoundrel to justice.
Dr. J. w. Bennett, of this place, was
sent for and went to see Mrs. Tyler last
Friday, and reports her doing well and
likely to recover. The blows received on
the head were of very serious nature,
but did not fracture the skull as was at
first supposed.

SIGHT RESTORED.
A Brilliant and Successful Surgical
Operation

A few days since, at the invitation of O
distinguished oculist, a reporter of the
Picayune was present at a remarkable
and most interesting surgical operation
by the successful performance of which
one who had been blind for five years was
made to see.
The patient, Mrs. Lyons, of Orange,
Texas, is bright and clipper old lady
almost seventy years of age, aud during
the long period of five years she has been
helpless and blind. Mrs. Lyons came to
New Orleans some two weeks ago for the
purpose of consulting physician regard
ing her eyesight. Accordingly OH the
following Friday morning the attending
Oculist, DIR. C.. NJ. Prentice, the reporter
of the Picayune, aud several ladies, as
sembled in the apartments of Mrs. Lyons
at No. 444 Baronne street.
DIR. Pentice nOiseleSsly arranged the
seven shining little instruments with
which the operation was to be performed.
There were but two persons in the room
whose nerves were not all a-qniver with
excitement, and those two we've the hand
some, CHEEKY, confident physician and his
patient. The operation was to be per-
formed without the use of chloroform,
and required the most absolute skill and
GOODNESS on the part of the physician.
Mrs. Lyons was suffering from senile
cataract, that is, the crystalline lens of
the eye was dead-had become Opaque.
In exactly forty seven seconds by the
watch DIR. Prentice turned away remark
ing: at is done, and she will see, and
held up to view that diseased portion of
the eye which had been so swiftly and
10 marvelously cut away. The eye,ids
were held propped open by means of
small fine speculum, and then with pair
of almost thread-like forceps the sure
hand of the physician grasped the eyeball
and held it firmly in place. By means
of needle-like knife tiny cut was
made, portion of the iris removed, and
then it but remained to do the final work
of all-remove the crystalline lens. The
eye was then carefully bandaged and
Mrs. Lyons was ordered to complete rest
and quiet At the end of five days the
bandages were removed, and the happy
and triumphant old lady joyfully an
nounced that she could see quite well
enough to read.
Tuesday morning Mrs. Lyons-she who
had been led with the timOrous footsteps
of the blind to the D0ctor-again walked
into his office at No. l5 Dryades street;
but this time with no uncertain carriage
and entirely unaided, and. after express
ing her delight and joy, the contented
lady started down to Canal street to see
the sights of New Orleans

DIR. JOHNSON ROBBED.

While on his way to Conference at Yazoo
City on Thursday night, DR.. H. +. John
son, President of Whitworth College, was
robbed in Jackson of S140 by pickpocket
named John Scott, from Cincinnati. As
he was getting off the car the thief rified
his pocket, and DR.. johnson caught him
in the act and held to him till he had him
arrested. In trying To make his escape,
pulling DR.. johnson along, he waived his
hand, thereby doubtless handing the
money to one of his pals, there being two
other suspicious characters hard by. The
money most of which belong to the
church, was not recovered. Pickpockets
are said to infest every train on the ILL
nois Central, and all travellers should keep
a sharp lookout.

a FOUL MURDER IN COPIAH.

A horrible murder was committed seven
miles north of Hazlehurst on the
night of the 18th inst. Mr.. VIM. Sum-
rail-, an old bachelor, living with wi
dowed sister and her little son, was called
to his door at II o'clock and shot down
in the most cruel manner He and the
family had retired, and were awakened
by parties calling at the front gate. They
told him to come to the door; they de-
sired to borrow his wagon. He did not
give them drink of water. He answer
ed that they could get water by going
around to the well. After all their en-
treaties had failed, as a last resort, they
said they had note from Mr.. Mangold, a
merchant of Hazlehurst, which it was i'm
portant for him to answer. Upon this he
opened the door, and had no sooner done
so than they shot him down i'll his tracks,
firing several loads into his body. They
also fired at the old lady, and would have
killed her, but she begged them not do so
and informed them that they could rob
the house without committing further
murder. They then took the trunk con-
tanning MIR. Sumralls money, supposed to
be near $4,000, and escaped.
The little boy, who was concealed in
loft. fired without effect at the retreat
ing tiends.
The old lady says she thinks the crowd
consisted of three negroes or white men in
disguise. The object was robbery, and
well did they succeed.
Two negroes were arrested at Halle
hurst next day with very strong cir,
cumstantial evidence against them
They are being held for trial. Suspicion
also rests on two white men who have not
yet been arrested.
| Mr. Simrall was one of the best citizens
of the county and was highly esteeme
and respected.

Wellington, Lorain county, O., writes:
sDr. s. B. HARTMAN e. Co., Columbus,
O., Gentlemen: I have been great suff-
rer from chronic catarrh, bronchitis and
neuralgia Of the face. ! have been taking
your PRRUNA for one month. The neu-
ralgia and catarrh is almost we'll, and the
cough is much better. like your PERU
NA very much"
c. E. Dupler, aged thirty -four years, Of
Equality, Illinois, had been affected with
O chronic catarrh which he first discov-
cred six years ago. In succession he lost
his smell, taste and hearing. The disease
was so malignant that it not only attacked
the softer parts, but destroyed the bony
partition Of the nose and seriously affected
the external parts. He could only hear a
watch ticking by holding it close to his
ear. He suffered intense pain in the nose,
from which green, dry clots of offensive
odor fell. In this condition he presented
himself to DR.. Hartman several months
ago. He can now hear a watch eight
inches from his right and six inches from
his left ear. His taste and smell are again
returning, and the external part of the
nose is quite we'll. Few more grateful
patients ever left physicians Office than
Mr.. Dupler. He said, Why in the

. Cramps Of the Stomach.
We have the privilege Of reporting the
following case. Those similarly affected
can get the name and address of DIR.
Hartman. The lady does not want her
name in the papers. For year, or years,
(the writer does not remember the length
Of time,) this lady had cramps, the most
fearful, of the stomach, every day and
night, switch would be followed by that
terrible weakness, which was something
wonderful" The suffering and distress
Of this lady was indescribable and almost
uncomfortable. After all the physicians
and medicines had failed, and all hope
had almost fed. DR.. Hartman was con-
suited, and from the first day of taking
his PERUNA, the cramps and all bad
feeling left her, and now for over month
has been entirely free from every symp-
tom. A more thankful patient no doctor
ever had.
Mr.. Boggs, druggist, Charlestown,
Kanawha Co., VIVA, writes: "PERUNA

Customers speak well of it."
