The Putnam Standard bears the awful responsibility of the following !: Several days ago carp, weighing eight and one-half pounds, was captured in the Quinebaug, at Wauregan. The report of the people who saw the fish met with dis credit generally. On Friday night, an other carp was captured in the same place, and on Saturday brought to Dan- ielsonville to be placed on exhibition. The fish measured two feet, eight inches in length and weighed twenty pounds. It was undoubtedly the largest fish ever caught in this section of the country.

A CLOUD OF W1rNEssEs.-We know of no medicine that has so many testimonials to it's efficiency as s. s. s., the great blood purifier. Many of the best known people in the country certify to the marvellous results it has wrought in the various forms of disease for which it is recom- mended. These testimonials come not alone from persons who have been re- lieved of their sufferings by s. s. S., but from people who have witnessed the ef- feet of the medicine. Practicing physi- clans, druggists, pharmacists-in fact, all who have had opportunity of observing the cures brought about by this great blood remedy-bear willing testimony to its efficacy. In it's field, which is a wide one, covering some of the most serious ailments of humanity, s. s. S.. has, no rival. sE '-*

Last April she was taken down with measles, fol- lowed with dreadful cough and turning into fever. Doctors at home and at Detroit treated her, but in vain, she grew worse rapidly, until she was mere "hand- full of bones." Then she tried Dr. Kings New Discovery and after the use of two and a half bottles was completely cured. they say Dr. Kings New Discovery is worth it's weight in gold, yet you may get trial bottle free at E.

MANS BEST FRIEND.

remember dog of my childhood whose good qualities were traceable to his affection for @ master who was always in trouble. This man was likely enough fellow, who, while still young, became very incorporate. The dog grew up with him. He went on all his masters sprees with him, and patiently awaited his ten dency to go home. When, always at a | late hour of the night, the young fellow started on his homeward way, the dog went patiently at his heels. His dumb eyes were fastened on the master, who, when sober, had only kind words for him. 1 Often the man was unable to reach home. and many night the dog and master lay l by the roadside in the suburb where they lived. During all his life he was never taken in charge by an officer because the moment he fell by the way, the dog lay ] across his body and no one dared touch the master while the mastiff was on guard. Many cold night the man would have frozen but for the dog.
 This same dog on the death of his mas ter came into the hands of family where there were several young women and & | child. His early experience made him & sad sort of dog. His spirit was chast- ened, and had he had the gift of gab, I always fancied that he would have been g. preacher or reformer. He was a sort of nurse for the child of the family, who was laid beside him on sunny afternoons in shady corner of the piazza and never thought of again until she woke, unless it occurred to some one to look and see if the sun had reached her. The dog did his duty well nothing disturbed the sleeping baby, not even flies.
 The reasoning power of the animal had many undoubted proofs. The home of his new master was on hill across the river from the town in which they did their shopping If at sunset any one of the women of the family was in town, she always met Tigar on the town side of the bridge, sitting bolt upright, with hisieyes fixed on the road. No one ever saw him going around to count up the women of the family, but he never made mistake i-BOSt0n Home ,J0urnnL

 THOUSANDS PO1sONED.-In recent work on Heart Disease, Dr. Franklin Miles-the noted specialist-gives many new and startling facts. Thousands of people are slowly poisoning themselves, weakening their hearts by the use of tea, coffee, tobacco and alcohol.

 for tLe Esood Of the Murderer.

SPARrANBuRG, &. C., Sept. eo.--This little city, situated on the Charlotte & Atlanta railway, was tbe scene of Q tragedy to-day. John Williams, a burlv negro, was making dlsturb- ance at home with his wife. Cries of nli sorts were heard from that direc- ton, and Mayor Henneman went to tho house to find out the cause. He arrested Williams and was trying to prevent his escape until the police came to his assistance Williams suc- cceded in pushing Henneman out of the door and while he was falling shot him in the back, killing him instantly.
 Groups of excited men gathered all over the city talking of nothing else. The jail was surrounded py bowling mob. and lacked only leader to pro- cure the prisoner. There is no doubt fouth Carolina will add another lynch ing to her list to night.
 Mayor Henneman some time ago prevented a mob from lynching Mur- derer Turner, an influential farmer who killed his brother-in-law. Henne- man on this occasion mounted a can non which the mob placed near the jail and with pistol in his hand shouted that he would kill the first person who approached the jail. By his coolness Turner was saved.

HIS ESCAPE A MIRACLE.
Startling Stories Of n Survivor Of the
 Recent Wind-S Orms,

GRAND RAPIDS, Minn., Oct. l.--A most destructive storm has passed over the southern part of this and Beltram counties. felling an immense amount of plne tim mber and caus .ng some loss of life. Particulars are impossible to get owing to the remoteness of the section, which is un settled and unoccupied except by by claim holders and cruisers for timber and mineral lands. Whole townships are known to have been swept over, the timber being leveled as grain before the reaper One cruiser nas reached here and reports an almost marvellous escape. He says the chief of surveying party in the woods was struck by tre. and while being taken out by way of the Cana dian country he died in boat on the Lake of the Woods. His name is unknown. Several United States surveying parties were at work in the region devastated. If half that is reported is true there has been d damage to pine timber amounting to many thousands of dollars, and if it is not immediately cut the loss will reach hundreds of thousands. The center of destruction was thirty to for.y miles this side of the boundary line and im- mediateiy north of this place
