tiOn Of public indignation, and Zach John-
son, the fearless Sheriff OF Christian eoun-
ty, with 3 picked posse, had the murder
ers, except Bill Walker, in custody within
forty-eight hours time. Bill Walker
was captured three weeks later in Doug
las county, where he had He'd to nurse his
wound and avoid detection. The capture
OF Bill Walker WAS a very clever piece OF
work. The sheriff knew that Bill bad a
sweetheart in Ozark, and came TO the con-
clusiOn that sooner or later Bill would
send for her, which be Old, and when she
arrived in Douglas county to meet her
young oatlaw lover, detective WAS
shadOwing her, and in ten minutes after
the meeting Of the lovers, Bill Walkers
wrists were decorated with handouts
A very peculiar feature Of Bald Knob
berism, now dead, is that majority Of
the most prominent members of the band
OF regulators we're deVout church members.
Chief Walker was an exhOrter, a temper
anee advocate and a generally devout
man. The Bald KnObber chief elung to
the belief that the regulators were cham
pions Of the right, claiming that the
Edens-Green killing wss an unfortunate
but unavoidable mistake.

MANY of the recognized authorities in
civil as well as military circles say, THE
malarial disease is most dangerous in that
the kidneys are most liable to break
down." Such men as Dacosta, Atkinson
and Pepper, professors in our leading
medical schools, and SOldaton, Surgeon
Gen. in the Russian army, Woodward,
Surg. Gen. in our American army, speak
of malaria as q direct complication OF
Briphes disease. The kidneys must be
kept free from disease and the poisonous
germs of malaria; they act normally in
cleansing the blood, for IS gallons of it
passes through them every hour. People
in malarial localities recover from both
the cause and effect of malaria by using
Wsrner's Safe Cure. Every person, in the
spring OF fall, who has either kidney dis
ease or malaria, should use Warmers Safe
Cure As a precautionary measure.
