White Caps Must Pay Damages,

Marion Kendall, a married man who
lived at Elizaville, Ind, four years ago,
was taken out by White Caps one night,
tied to post and beaten into insensibil-
ity, his life being despaired of for sew
eral days. He became paralyzed from
the effects, and brought suit for $40, 900
damages against five of his assailants,
who were well respected citizens of the
county. Judgment was given for $1,000.
The defendants spent money freely, and
finally carried the case to the supreme
court. A decision handed down from
that body affirms the Judgment of the
lower court.-Cor. indianapolis Journal

WHAT TAKES THEM OFF?
The Alarming Increase of Pneumonia
and What 1t Means-sThe Stitch in
Time.v

Aue Alarming increase OF Pneumonia
and What 1t Means-ssThe stitch in
Time"
Scarcely day passes that one does not hear
OF men and women whom we picture as the
perfection of health and strength. being
stricken down by the terrible disease, pneu
monia.
Perhaps the greatest cause of pneumonia in
this country is the extreme difference in tenn
perature between the interiors OF Offices and
homes and the outside air. So long as people
consider it necessary for their comfort to main
tain hot-house temperature indoors, when the
mercury is very low outside, SO long will pneu-
monia find victims
The greatest care and prompt measures should
be taken upon the first approach of the slightest
symptoms of pneumonia Ifyou have tickling
in the throat, tightness in the chest, pain in
the head, chilly feeling, or pains throughout
an immediate reaction. This can sometimes
be accomplished by quick and violent exercise,
but that is eXhausting and wastes the strength,
which should be husbanded. far better plan
is to take q pure and strong stimulant, which
will tend to equalize the circulation, cheek
congestion and restore to health. There are
many forms of stimulation, but only one that
can be recommended-that Is Duffy's Pure Malt
Whiskey. This is the only medicinal whiskey
proven by its popularity. 1t has saved the
lives OF more men and women who were candi-
dates for pneumonia than any discovery of
modern science, and ii stands, as it deserves to
stand, at the head of medicinal stimuants of
the present day.

THE GIRLS WERE SCARED,
But the Young Man Was Equal to the
Emergency.

At O'Clock last evening one of the
clerks at Wineburgh's dry goods store,
at 300 South Spring street, while lighting
the gas jets in one of the show windows,
accidentally ignited piece of drapery,
which fared up in an alarming manner,
and caused futter OF excitement among
the fair occupants of the store. The
youth to whose carelessness the accident
was due, fortunately retained his pres
ence of mind sufficiently to tear the
burning drapery from its hangings, and
quickly extinguished the flames, but
Officer Mcguire, who was passing by on
horseback, rode to box 81 and turned in
an alarm, to which the brigade respond
ed promptly.

HOW to Succeed.

This is the great problem of life which few
satisfactorily solve. Some fail because of poor
health, others want of luck, but the majority
from deficient grit-want of nerve. They are
nervous, irresolute, changeble, easily get the
blues and "t,se the spirits down to keep the
spirits up" thus wasting money, time. oppor-
tunity and nerve force. There is nothing like
the Restorative Nervine, discovered by the
great specialist DR.. Miles, to cure all nervous

last Monday night. He was met
at the depot by large number Of
his friends and admirers and es-
corted to the Phoenix hotel, where
he was given an ovation. In a few
brief but well-timed remarks Mr..
Blanchard declared himself in
hearty accord with the objects and
principles of the Farmers Alliance
and favored every demand made
by them except the sub-treasury
bill, and this he did not think the
farmers themselves would favor
when they came to thoroughly un-
derstand it.

HARDEMAN COUNTY.
The General Outlook Very Encouraging-Good
Crops Assured-HOme- Seekers Wanted.
Quanah, the County Seat

Special to the Gazette.
QUANAH, TEX, April 5--Hardeman
county is experiencing an era of prosper
ity it is so justly entitled to. Never be-
, fore since its settlement has the outlook
seemed so bright and promising. Last
fall a large wheat crop was sown and the
season since then could not have been
better for a large crop. During the
month of March there was very little
rain, and some who are not acquainted
with our country entertained fears of
light crop; but the recent heavy rains
have dIspelled all doubts, and large
yield of wheat and oats
is now an assured fact. It can
be set down as a sure thing that we will
have plenty of rain In this country during
the months of April and May.
Our farmers and stockmen feel jubilant
over the prospects, and we feel that it is
only question of q short time until our
county will be well settled. Land is SELL
ing at prices varying from So. so to $40
per acre. A great deal OF this land is
state school land, and its purchase as
sumes payment to the state of the orig
inal price. The railroad lands are sold
one-ffth cash, balance in four annual
payments. 1t takes very little capital to
buy good farm here, and the purchaser
can always get long time at low rate of
interest on deferred payments. There
is nothing to prevent person from own
ing a home of his own IN Hardeman
county If he has ambition enough to work
and save what he will make. We want
farmers to settle in the county and those
who will take hold now will realize big
profit for their investments and labor.
Quanah, the coming city of this coun-
try, has nearly 1000 inhabitants, a gain
of about 1900 within the past twelve
months. New buildings are going up in
all parts of the city, many of which are
two story stone buildings. We have
first-class building stone, lime factory,
and good brick clay near town.
The new courthouse building will be
commenced at once, and will be COM
pleted by the time the Pease river bridge
is finished. There is no town on the
Fort Worth and Denver City railroad
that offers as great inducements for in
vestmenss as Quanah. Property is cheap
and We have no boom prices.
One of the greatest needs OF the county
is roller mill; it was generally under
stood that arrangements had been made
to erect l00-b barrel MILL but now il
seems to have fallen through We will
have big crop this year, and there will
be plenty Of grain TO support good mill.
Persons who are looking for location for
that business will find 1t TO their interests
to correspond with our board of trade.
Many of our citizens have attended
Sam Jones meeting and are well pleased
with his sermons.
