don work and seek recuperation. He
had long been marked victim by the
archer, Death, and all could read the
inevitable in his pale and haggard
features, long. perhaps, before the truth
come home to him. Young Weber
/ left his home in Germany, and started
out to earn his fortune IN the far
west. He found grave. 1t is indeed
sad to think of his dying in land of
comparative strangers, with no
mother to watch over him and soothe
the last mopents of his brief life on
earth; no kindred to see that his
bones found proper resting place
but dependent alone on the care OF
paid attendants. Mr.. Weber was q
member of the Travis light artillery
company, and was at one time secre-
tary and treasurer of that organiZa
ton, as well as corporal of the second
detachment. The artillery company
will pay an appropriate tribute to his
memory.

A Valuable Chill Tonic = Read
This Testimony.

NEW ALBANY, Miss, June 8, 1881.
Messrs. R. A. Robinson 8 Co.,
Louisville.
GENTLEMEN-Out of several gross
of Hughes Chill Tonic sold since 1
located here, two years ago, not fail
ure has been reported: The demand
is increasing daily. The people have
learned that it is as represented-a
certain, safe and speedy cure for chills
and fevers--and will have no other
remedy. This is the almost universal
statement of my customers in this
section. Its advantages over quinine
and other anti-periodics have been
thoroughly demonstrated. Besides
the efficiency of this tonic, the safety
and comfort attending its use speak
highly in its favor. Small children
take it readily. In my drug store,
popular physician has his office. You
know the regular an. DIS" dislike to
recommend patent medicines. Hughes
Tonic is the only one of which he has
ever spoken favorably. After ex-
hausting the Materia Medica, ineffect-
ually, he was cured of case of chron.
ic chills, of long standing, by the use
of half bottle of Hughes Tonic.
Really, 1t Is pleasure to handle such
remedy, for it never disappoints. If
you should wish any testimonials, I
can furnish you with hundreds from
reliable persons. The last lot ordered
Is nearly out, and / will have to re-
plenish soon. 1t is one of my staples.
Respectfully,

HOTEL ROBBERY.
And what an Arrest Revealed.

And what an Arrest Revealed.
st. Charles hotel was robbed yester-
day morning to the extent of neck
lace, brooch and a pair of brace
let's. Officer Chenneville was detailed
to work up the case, and arrested in a
saloon on the Avenue, a man named
Jake Rayns, alias V. X. Niles, who
claims to have come from San Anto-
Mo. None of the stolen jewelry was
discovered, but he was found to be in
possession of three gold watches, one
of which was encased in solid gold
the other two in filed cases. One OF
the filed case watches was numbered
1,127,692 and the other 51,974. The
other was fiat cased old fashioned
watch. The officers do not consider il
consistent with honesty for man to
be wearing three gold watches at one
time, and hence have consigned this
well timed man to the locker.
