ABSOLUTELY PURE
The Weekly Murder.

! 0n~last Sunday morning tn,
news reached here that the dead
body Of RUDE Lunsford had been
found in the road near his home
seven miles above here, and di.
rectly opposite Thos. Francs's
house. A revolver with all but
one chamber empty was lying by
his side and there was a bullethole
in his back. A coroner's jury was
summoned ms soon as possible and
an inquest held.
Thos, France acknowledged hav-
ing done the killing and was ar
rested and lodged in lail. The ex-
amfning trial was held ON Wed
nesday and France was acquitted
on the grounds of selfdefense. The
evidence showed that Lunsford
went to frances house about u
O'Clock Saturday night and fired
several shots into his house. The
family left hurriedly and went to a
neighbor's. The moon was shining
brightly and France got rifle and
went out to the corner of his house
and shot Lunsford, killing him al
most instantly. Lunsford was in.
toxicated and was trying to drive
France from the community.
Lunsford was honest and honor
able in business transactions and
well liked when sober, but he in
dulged altogether too freely in
drink and was often troublesome
when intoxicated.

To a Daughters Memory.

The following loving tribute
which will De endorsed by all VIII
knew the deceased, was published
in the Central Methodist last week
i FERGUsoN.-Kdte Burns Fergu
son, daughter of X. Il. and c. ii
Burns, was born at PikeviIle, Ken
lucky, May 20, 1859; married to II
w. Ferguson, November 20, 1878
departed this life Easter evening
April IL, 1892. She joined the
Methodist Episcopal Church. South,
at the age Of twelve, under the
ministry of Rev. Walter Shearer.
At the age Of sixteen was con-
verified, while attending revival
service at Saint Paul Methodist
Episcopal church, in the city of
Cincinnati. She was good child,
a good girl, a good wife, good
woman. Her last words were:
Lord Jesus receive my spirit"
and on the wings of that sweet
prayer of the first Christian mar
tyr, her sweet spirit flew up to her
Savior, and TO the home He had
prepared for her. For ten years
she was an invalid, suffering very
much. But she bore il all with pa
thence and wonderful resignation,
and was bright and cheerful amid
all her sutferings. Bryant has
beautifully set in one of our songs,
a sweet Bible truth, which we
paraphrase. 1t comforts
our hearts.
For Goa has marked each Borrowing Cay,
And numbered every secret tear.
and heavens loug age ~ Bills shall pay
E6tall our dear child suffered here"
We buried her beside her broth I
or Alex. with whom she had played
IN childhood's happy hours; and
we turned away from their graves /
with all the blessed assurance of /
'aith and hope, that we should
meet them again In The paradise OF /
iod Praise the Lord.
HER FATHER AND MOTHER.

Newspaper Circulation.

Circulation is what an advertiser
wants when he is looking for a
newspaperIn which to place his
advertisement. 1t mas been csti-
mated that regular editions OF
country week.-Mrs. average about
500 copies per week. The regular
edition" and the number Of read
eror are two very different thing :.
In answering question as to cir
culation many publishers multiply
the number Of their actual edition
from two to five times and give it
rs the number of readers, instead
Of stating plainly the number of
copies printed each week. The Bic
SANDY News furnishes certified
statement of an edition Of 1000
copies per week to any advertiser
W no wants it.

Der factories, Of which there are a great
number in Boston and its neighhor-
hood, ere greatly addicted 10 this Novel
form of drunkenness. In such establish
ments naphtha is used in enormous guam
titles to cleanse the rubber, being kept IN
big boilers closed against the air To the
valves Of these bo lers the young women
employees readily obtain acce, ,s and breathe
the exhalations thereirOn, some unlucky
accident hayiog betrayed to chance ex-
perimenter the ab0minable secret. The
notion is said TO have been brought origin
ally from Germany by immigrant lsb0rers
in petiicOats. Now the manufacturers pro-
pose to put stop 10 the evil by keeping
the valves carefully lOckei.
An over dose of naphtha fumes brings
on hysterical commissions and other IN
pleasant symptoms. The habit, long fol
lowed, causes a swelling Of the face and
other parts Of the body, with dropsy to fol-
low, and sometimes epilepsy. On the
whole, it is difficult TO know, which OF
these new-fangled vices for women TO rec
ommend. There is either drinking
laughing gas, and tea eating, bseido the
napths. The conscientious pursuit Of any
one of them will surely lead to the lunatic
asylum. You pay your moneys one
might remark and sou take your choice.
