Of stern determined white men, bent
on revenge for the brutal murder OF
one Of one of the best citizens or TINS

negroes, terror stricken and fearful
lest they or their families be made
the objects Of the same fate as has
already befallen seven Of their num-
Der. and ready to defend themselves
from such fate as well as they may
be able.
What the next twentyfour hours
will bring forth is causing great APP

open clash seems very much more
than probable at this writing. Inc
authorities are powcrless and practl-

great deal Of excitement. When it
developed that the same gang OF ne

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced IN the
remedy, Syrup Of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of a perfect lax
alive; efectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation:
It has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval Of the medical
profession, because it acts on the KID
news, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug
pists in SOC and 81 bottles, but It is man
ufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, whose name is printed on every
package, also the name, Syrup OF Figs

FLAMES ALTA CROSSE.
An &S6.OOO Fire Marked by Close
Calls From Death.

La Crosse, Wis, Dee 25. BY far
the most serious fire Of the year broke
out in the show window of the J. G.
Lance department store, being caused
by window trimmer stepping on an
electric light socket, which caused a
short circuit. 4nere was a flash and
fire ran to the ceiling among the
draperies in a second. The store was
filled with light articles hanging up
and the flames swept through them
with such speed that clerks were
driven out without hats and wraps.
while those on the second and third
floors got out of the windows of the
second story Miss Harriet Loyejoy
returned to the third floor for her
cloak and could not get back. She
hung out of window waiting for a
ladder, but her clothing began burn
ing and she dropped into a basket,
dislocating her hip and receiving 9th
er injuries, probably not fatal.

here Is q decided advantage In oc-

though rich enough, becomes too

Eoning sodden. Man! farmers do
think Of changing their garden
i until spring. Then it Is too late
make the soil rich enough for gar
ling purposes; but if clover ley Is
dressed heavily with manure in
fall, and then plowed early in the

Teaching n Calf to Drink.

There are just two things required
In teaching a calf how to drink; the
first is little common sense, the sec
ond is patience. The common sense
comes In when you consider that its
nature is to look up for its food sup
ply, and X you touch the top OF its
head or nose you must expect It's ten
dency will be to follow up that di-
rection to find what it is after. Don't
think calf a day or two old can have
great amount Of experience, so don't
expect to show very much reasoning
power. You must do that for them.
When your patience begins to Waver,
just ask yourself how much more you
knew when you were at the calf's age,
and it may help you to credit the calf
with little sense and enable you to
overlook good deal that you might
otherwise attribute to pure cussed-
ness.
