Cherry Pectoral.

No other complaints SO insidious in their
attack as those affecting the throat and lungs:
none so trifled with by the majority of suffer-
ers. The ordinary cough or cold, resulting
perhaps from trifng or unconscious ex-
posure, is often but the beginning of fatal
sickness. AYERS CHERRY PICTORIAL has
well proven its efficacy in a forty years fight
with throat and lung diseases, and should be
taken in all cases without delay.

BALTIMORE, July l5-Much excitement
has been occasioned here by the publication
of sandal which throws light on what has
long been prominent topic in society, the
disappearance some years ago of a
beautiful society belle, deserting her
husband and newly born baby. The
police lately heard that woman of her de
scription had been sent to the female house
of correction. Following up the elew, they
traced her to negro house of ill-fame,
where she was found Saturday night by
her husband, accompanied by detectives,
in the arms of a burly negro The
infuriated husband attacked the negro,
nearly killing him, and was only pulled off
by main force. The woman's fall was due to

SLIPPERY DICK In LIMBO.
Charged With Seduction and Being the
Prospective Father of
Unborn Babe.

Another case of mans inhumanity to
woman bobbed up to the surface yester>
day. causing household to be draped in
mourning. most dire, all because a man,
by invidious attentions and sugar coated
promises, succeeded in gaining the CON
sent of an innocent girl to yield to him all
that was near and dear to her For over
six long months. Dick Lloyd, known to
all the boys in the city as slippery Dick,
has been waiting on Miss Mary Woods,
who resides in the upper part of the city.
Miss Woods is young in years, and her
parents are respectable and honest peo~
pile, and nothing has ever occurred before
TO mar their happiness. Lloyd had a
good trade-that of stone cutter-and
as he was sober and apparently sincere in
his attentions, there were no objections
raised to his keeping company with the
young lady. About three weeks
ago, Miss Woods took sick, and her
folks felt very much alarmed@as her
sister had died only about nine months
ago, and the family were afraid that Miss
Mary would die also. Things ran along
until Sunday evening, when in some way
her brothers suspicious were aroused, and
he asked her if her trouble was not due TO
Lloyd. At first she denied the charge,
but after while stated that such was the
case. Yesterday afternoon warrant
was sworn out for Lloyd and he was ar
rested by Officer McCabe, who took him
to the station house About O'Clock he
was interviewed by Mr.. Woods and Mr..
Evans, brother-in-law to the wronged
girl but he hadn't much of anything to
say Later on he was taken before Jus
tice Cropper, who held him in bonds to
appear for trial next Monday morning
What the outcome of the suit will be can
easily be told. If he does not signify a
| willingness TO wright the wrong he has
done, the law will take its course, and
LLOYD will be made to answer in a severe
manner. Miss Woods is quiet, unosten~
tious young lady. and very ladylike in
department.

DCK ISLAND, ILLINOIS. TUESDAY. JULY Is, 1884

rible sight met their horrible gaze. Beale
lay stretched out upon the hearth-rug stone
dead with bullet-hole in his left temple,
from which thin stream of brains and
blood was oozing, while his right hand
clutched his still smoking sx-shooter. Bowie,
who lay near him covered with blood
from four on five wounds, slowly turned
his head at the entry of the crowd, gasped
out some inarticulate words, and then died.
The most distressing part of the affair is that
the two men, previous to the quarrel which
ended in the death of them both, were bosom
friends, most of their time having been spent
in each others company for a number of
years. The affair has created the widest ex-
citement
