THE OLD AND THE NEW

The old style pills Who does not know
W hat agony they caused-what woe
1ou walked the noor, you gruaned, you signed
And felt such awful pain inside,
And the next day you felt so weak
And didn't want to move or speak
Now PIerce's " Pellets " are so mild
They are not dreaded by n chitd.
They do their work in painless way,
And leave no weakness for next day.
Thus proving what f. oft contest
That gentle means are Away best.

Price, at Brookside, near Richmond,
Va, on Friday, October Is, in the
74th year of her age.
The older members of this commu-
nifty will remember her as Il lady of
unusual mental attachments; of warm
and generous nature; fearless AMI in
telIigent i'm the expression of her
views; and altogether one of the
loveliest of the old fashioned Vir-
ginia ladies of the olden time.
She was born in SpOttsylvania
county, Va, in August, 1918, came
TO Kentucky about the year 1882.
and resided near Woodlake. this
county, until 1882; when she return
ed to Virginia. She united with the
Presbyterian Church in this city
about 1912, under the ministry of
Rev.J. j. Bullock, ID. d., and has
ever since, by her life and converse.
ton, borne testimony to the truth
and sutficiency of the religion of our
Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
OF delicate and nervous temper

sam McCurdy, who is i'm Jail await
ing his trial for attempting to kill
Officer Henry Brown about year ago,
attempted to make his escape Satur-
day night from one Of the upper
rooms of the Court House, where the
prisoners are at present confined
awaiting the completion of the jail,
by running an iron poker under the
window sill, tying his blankets to-
gether and fastening them to the
poker. In getting out of the window
he slipped, lost his hold on the blank
ct and fell to the ground, distance
of fifteen feet, alighting on large
stone and portion Of iron railing
which had been removed from the
court room, and bruising himself up
terribly. Mr.. p. +. Smith, who was
guarding the prisoners, was in the
court room ut the time, ran out when
he heard him fall, with his pistol
presented ready to shoot, but the
poor wretch exclaimed "dOn't shoot,
/ am about dead nOw." He was
taken up, carried into the Court
House and a physician sent for, when
it was discovered no bones were
broken. He has since been suffering
a great deal, but will be all right
again in Il short time.

What came near being very
serious fire occurred at the Opera
House, at seven O'Clock, on Wednes-
day night. 1t seems that there was
a pile of waste paper and kindling
near the coal bunk, under the stag
ing, which was ignited either by ac-
cident or design, it is hard to deter
mine which. 1t was burning quite
fiercely when discovered, but was
quickly eXtinguished when our "tire
laddies" reached the place. Owing
to the dense smoke it was almost i'm
possible to learn the extent of the
damage until next morning, when it
was found not to amount to more
than so or $40. BY the use of the
new cutoff nozzles the fire boys were
able to eXtiuguish the fire without
the usual damage by water.

wound and is being carried away to a
place of safety by a little group
OF the officers in gray. Throughout
the entire field there is a succession of
similar interesting situations and groups,
which, with the graphic descriptions of
the lecture, delivered with an earnest
ness far more fascinating than studied
eloauence, lead an audience back into all
the terrible realities of the war, and re-
suscitate within the breasts Of many those
intense feelings OF partisanship which di-
yided and broke up families and nearly
the Union itself. Those who POLITICALLY
sneak and write OF the obliteration OF the
war line would be astonished to spend an
evening at this wonderful exhibition.
The deep-rooted prejudices and the
PRONOUNCED sYMPATHuEs OF MANY A
SPECTATOR
Are manifested by indignant Interrupt
tons or emphatic denunciations which
compel the lecturer to stop for a moment,
and frequently to entreat for silence. On
all such occasions the venerable Prentiss
is gentle and persuasive and very rarely
finds himself obliged to appeal TO the
crowd. The lecture itself is an enjoyable
entertainment and is very generally re-
garded as the best and most reliable
description of the principal incidents at
Shiloh ever spoken or written. General
Prentiss is small, frail person,
scarcely over medium height, with
white hair and sunken cheeks, and an
almost toothless mouth. The complacent
and amiable smile which is ever present,
however, renders his face most fascin-
ating one, particularly to those who are
familiar with his true history.
After the lecture was over the writer
was presented to General Prentiss, and
was favored with most unreserved and
delightful interview, in which u great
many facts were given which the lecture
had not contained. Among other things,
the General was asked respecting the in
cident at the battle OF Shiloh which had
for time cast shadow on the
From what appeared in General Grant 8
Century article. The writer, who had
always sympathized with General Nc
Cook, desired the actual facts, and be
lieved the venerable lecturer competently
able to give them; and SO explained him
self. General Prentiss declared he hat
no axes to grind had no pets, and sought
no favors; and therefore could speal
candidly; that there were feelings o
jealousy and envy among all of Buell's
officers as we'll as with the commander
himself, he never entertained doubt
he said and he believed General Nc
Cook had shared those sentiments.
"But don't you Think asked tn,
writer, "that the exhausted condition o
McCook's command as result OF thei
exposure to the rain and fatigue of thu
night before was very excellent reason
for their not entering into the heat OF tn,
engagement when requested by Genera
Grant?"
81 think" he replied, "that if the Con
federate soldiers who had been exposed
in forced march, for three days ant
nights, could keep up the gallant charg
which they made during most OF the 6tl
OF April, surely our men, who had suf
fered much less fatigue and exposure
could afford to help a little. For my part

The defense here announced its conclu-
sion of testimony, and Mr.. Dickson moved
that the defendant be discharged. He
thought that Collins own statement was
consistent throughout, and that there had
been no evidence of q damaging character
developed in this examination respecting
Collin. The most diligent efforts had
been put forth to secure McMurrin as a
witness. The latter's deposition had
contained statements, his family had
denied his making the statements, and
altogether the showing for McMurrin
was not a creditable one. He was
OF the opinion, and thought there was
abundant evidence to show, that Collin
had not fired the shots which had pene-
trated his own clothing, and further, that
there had been testimony brought forth
conclusively proving that Collin had been
assaulted and fired at, and the case there
for had every appearance OF being one OF
self defense as regards the defendant.
Commissioner Mckay concurred in the
opinions OF the District Attorney, and
stated that there had been a sufficient
showing to justify Collin in shooting Nc
Murrin. He Commissioner Mckay
thought it was to be regretted that he
had not shot the other parties as well.
After some further remarks he an
nounced /: "The defendant is dis
charged"
Judge Hoge requested that the Marshal
be instructed to take possession OF the
hats, clothing, etc., in case they might be
needed on future occasion.
The Commissioner announced that as
he was merely committing magistrate
the Grand Jury might possibly take q
different view Of the case, he thought il
advisable to have the witnesses subpn
naed to appear before that body when
wanted. The witnesses were detained,
and the work of subpenaing accom-
plished, after which the last OF the spec.
tators filed out.
Deputy Collin, who had manifested
nothing in the shape of fear or anxiety
during the examination, now wore more
pronounced smile, and was the recipient
of congratulations from a number o
friends. Thus ends the first chapter
there are other chapters to come, it is
safe to predict.
