SEDUCTION CASE OFF

Assistant Attorney j. H. Davis Is a
great success as a match maker. He
may not have tried his hand very of
ten. but yesterday when he made up
his mind that Charlie Gross and Miss
Katie Putnam should be married he
went straight at the matter. and with
in an hour the twain were made one
according to the ritual of the state OF
Texas. But he may have had some
peculiar advantages in this case.
Gross was in jail and MIR. Davis has
some influence in certain cases.
1t will be remembered by readers of
the Gazette that Deputy Sheriff Rea
returned last Saturday night from
Little Rock accompanied by Gross,
whom he landed in jail under an in
dictment OF seduction. The victim of
his wiles was Miss Katie Putnam.
nelce of Mr.. j. ]. Putnam, a prosper
Gus farmer about Il miles north OF
town.
Yesterday Miss Putnam and her
uncle were here as witnesses before
the grand jury. and and continued
acquaintance with the mild voiced lit
tie woman that should have been wear
ing orange blossoms on her brow in
stead Of the scarlet letter on her bos-
ON, increased MIR. Davis interest in
the case. He took counsel with his
own kind heart and advised the young
woman to agree to marry Gross If he
were DESTROYS for the affair to take
that turn. Her reply to this PROPOSE
tlon was characteristic of the woman:
III | rad not loved Charlie very dear
ly this disgrace could never have come
to me. And even now, though he has
treated me SO cruelty l stlll love him.
If he wants to marry me now l think
that would be best. / know that /
would be happier II he were my hus-
band"
Whereupon Mr.. Davis sent for
Gross to be brought over to the court
house. Then the two young people
were allowed to talk together for a lit
tie while. At the end of this consul
tation they announced their readiness
to cry the bans" Mr. Davis had a
talk nth Gross In which he said: do
you look me in the face as imam and
tell me that you are marrying her in
good falthf" To which he received an
affirmative reply. Then Judge Arm
was called in, Sheriff Euless brought
license, County Attorney Terrell
gave the bride away, and the county
judge pronounced the words which
made them man and wife.
DR.. George Jackson, foreman OF the
grand Jury. congratulated the young
couple and their honest effort to right
a wrong and their determination to
start life afresh, and the two went
away TO assume the joint care of the
baby that promises ere long to be
theirs.

Boonville on Friday last, remaining
until Sunday evening. II was ilrst
supposed that he only Intended visit
Ing his friend, Mr. Sellers. Of our city
but 1t was learned later from Mr.,
Liberati. that the object Of his visit
was, 10 arrange with Mr.. sellers 20 take
the business management and assls-
tant dictatorship Of the great Liberati
Concert Band.
Mr. Sellers appreciates the compile
ment very much and while he is very
anxious to become assistant director
OF the great band he hesitates as to
accepting the laborious task and re-
sponsibility OF the business manage
ment Of the band. No contract has yet
been signed.
The above refers to the Professor
Sellers now In Fort Worth arranging
TO establish n large state band. He
is meeting with great encouragement,
and we hope the enterprise Will sue
coed. II Is an opportunity to adver-
tise our city and contribute to the
pleasure OF our citizens that should
be used to advantage. The professor
comes with the highest recommended
tlons. Let us have the band.

YEARS or SUFFERING
Blind Ten Years.
AN OLD PHYSICIANS OPINION.

AN OLD PHYSICIANS OPINION.
For over twenty years suffered with
nervous or sick headache. The least
excitement or exercise would bring on
the most violent attacks. For ten Year,
have been nearly blind with sore
eyes.
For years have suffered with CA
TARRH and nervous disease peculiar
to my sex. For Ave or six years I
had GOITRE on my neck nearly as
large as goose egg. I have been
treated by the most prominent and
reputable physicians In Texas. All Of
them failed to cure me. / went to DR..
r. w. Fisk for treatment, and It Is
with great pleasure that l can say that
DIR. Fisk restored me to health, and !
thank my God that / can now read
my Bible, a privilege I was deprived
Of for nearly ten years on account Oh
being blind.
l hope that all women suffering from
chronic nervous weakness or nervous
or sick headache Will go to DIR. Fisk
and be cured. My long suffering and
experience among physicians taught
me that DR.. Fisk is the most success
full In curing chronic diseases, HIS
charges are very reasonable.
MRS. j. G, ANGLIN.
The above statement is true, and Is
given so that those suffering similarly
may know where to find q physician
that can cure them. Respectfully,
