Excitement in Texas.

Great excitement has been caused IN
the vicinity of Paris, Texas, by the re-
markable recovery OF Mr.. j. E. Corley,
who was so helpless he could not turn In
bed, or raise his head; everybody said he
was dying of Consumption. A trial bot
tie OF DR.. Kings New Discovery was sent
him. Finding relief, he bought alarge bot
tie and a box of DR.. Kings New Life Pills:
by the time he had taken two boxes of
Pills and two bottles of the Discovery, he
was well and had gained in flesh thirty
six pounds. Trial bottles of this Great
Discovery for Consun p ion free at Dr..

Sold Again.

On Monday the Wa-Keeney Tribune
passed from the control of Messrs. Ward.
Morse & Hollister, the purchase having
been made by l.. G. Cain, of the Walker
ellis county, :JoHrRA. Mr.. Ward has
edited the Tribune this week. It is I'M
derstood that Mr.. Cain will send his part
ner here the coming week to take charge
of il.
Mr.. Ward, true to our prediction upon
his taking charge of the Tribune, has
made it a good paper. If he gave to it
an cratic Democratic caste, there was at
the basis vivid conception of what he
wanted to say. We hope that the new
management will bring to the work as
much enthusiasm, ability and honor as
Mr.. Ward proved himself to possess. We
expect to see the Tribune flourish here
after. The new owners are practical
printers.
