A LIFE FOR ALlFE.
A Bloody Murder Speedy Avenged in Trigg
County Thursday

Particulars of bloody affair in
Trigg county last Thursday have just
reached this city. 1t happened "be-
tween the rivers" near Golden Pond
An ex-convict named Colston, who
served out term for cattle stealing
and was released about three months
ago, was the principal actor. In a
row over a woman named Colston, a
relative of his, Colston shot and bad
ly wounded a man named Rhodes,
and went off to get another load Of
ammunition and when he returned
found young man named Ham
mond administering to the wounded
mans needs in his helpless condition.
Without word he fired upon Ham
mond and killed him outright. Col
ston and the woman then fed to-
gether in boat and a posse was soon
organized to pursue them. The pos.
Sc came upon them after they had
left the boat and firing upon Colston
killed him. The woman then seized
Colston's gun and attempted to fire
but she too was shot and killed be,
fore she could shoot the weapon. The
desperate who was killed was a no
torious tough. He was the same man
who shot and wounded VIM. Wad-
lington some time ago while Wad-
lington was trying to arrest him. The
woman who caused the trouble bore
very bad character and the death
of both of them was a good radiance
to the community. Hammond was
young man of good character
Rhodes was still alive at last accounts

Those who never read the advertise.
ments in their newspapers miss more
than they presume. Jonathan Kenison,
of Bolan, Worth Co., Iowa, who had
been troubled with rheumatism in his
back, arms and shoulders, read an item
in his paper about how a prominent
German citizen of Fl. Madison had been
cured. He procured the same medicine,
and to use his own words: "It cured
me right up" He also says: "a neighbor
and his wife were both sick in bed with
rheumatism. Their boy was over to my
house and said they were so bad he had
to do the cooking. told him of Cham.
berlain's Pain Balm and how it had
cured me, he got bottle and it cured

asserts that the citizens of the United
States, perceiving that they are only
asked to accept currency Of money
(say $40 bank note) founded on five
silver dollars equal to five gold dollar
coins), and five dollars of gold, instead
of two five dollar gold coins, will &C.
cept and joyfully approve and circulate
such new currency in order, permanent.
ly, to FIX and secure the standard silver
dollar in it's present parity of value with
the gold dollar.
What, then, are the results Of the
whole scheme of the plan?
First-The United States, as an inde.
pendent nation, founds and issues her
own currency on a basis of bi.m etallism
that suits the tastes, habits and inter.
ests of her own people, as every nation
can and will do, and such new circula-
ton her people believe will be accepted
In her commerce with other nations at
the same value as at home.
Second-That recognizing the gold
standard OF money as high and supreme
as any other nation, nevertheless she
claims the right to diminish her demand
for the use of it by her circulation at
home, and thereby leave a greater
quantity for the use of the other nations
of the earth.
Third-Such diminution in the de-
mand for gold will result from the use
of the new currency in the payment Of
the annual expenses of the Govern
ment.
I Fourth The bond debt OF the United
States will not be increased, because
the proceeds of the sale of such bonds
are only to be used for the redemption
of bonds pledged to the Government for
National bank currency.
Fifth-As liberal, lawful coinage and
separate, independent value of the sill
yer dollars as factor in finance are
both recognized by the plan, the silver
advocates cannot complain of injustice
to them.
Sixth-It is sincerely believed and
asserted by the author that if the
scheme OF the plan were put into opera
tion in any reasonable time, or was now
in operation, prosperity in the whole
business and property interests of the
people of the United States would at
once be restored.
With nothing but patriotic motives
inspiring the author, the plan is re.
spectfuIly submitted for public, chari.
table criticism ,and its adoption earnest
ly recommended.

GREAT is SURGERY.

Interesting Operation Of Reinforcing the
Blood Recently Performed.
An interesting surgical operation, one
which is new to Springfield, was per-
formed about two weeks ago by DR.. W.
A. Smith, one of the new members OF
the fraternity in this city. The opera
ton was the infusion into an exhausted
system Of a saline solution to increase
the supply of blood. The blood is saline,
and the solution is transformed into
blood rapidly and produces an effect
which is not only stimulating, but per.
manent.
The patient in this case has been suf-
fering for long time with tumor in
the abdomen, which had Slapped her vi
tality till her system could not stand
the cutting which was necessary. TWAS
found advisable to take this method OF
strengthening the system. The patient
was put under the influence of an@sthet-
les, and the injection was made between
the breast and the muscles of the chest.
About pint of the solution was inject
ed, fountain syringe being used. The
breast absorbs the fluid quickly into the
veins, and in this case within IL hours
all the solution had been taken up by
the system. It has been quite successful,
and the patient is SO much stronger that
it is hoped that the removal Of the tu-
NOR can be attempted before q great
while. Springfield Republican.
