A Christian Dog in Islam'= Holy City

A Christian Dog in IsInm's Holy City.
New York Evening Post.
Not many Europeans have succeeded in
accomplishing the pilgrimage to Mecca. M.
Gervais Courtellemont is the third French
second who has come back alive. M.
Courtellemont has just given an account
of his experiences in the holy city of Islam.
During the journey he posed as an Al
gerian who had been lately converted to
the faith of Mohammed, and arrayed HIM
self in Arab costume. Notwithstanding
his perfect command of Arabic. he was
looked upon with much suspicion by his
fellow-pilgrims, and he often found 1t diff
f1cult to procure his bread and. salt. The
long journey from Jiddah to Mecca was
performed on asses in single day. Al
though the heat was great, NJ. Courteile--
travelled with his head shaved and un-
covered This was in order to disarm
suspicion. Many of the faithful how
ever, made no scruple about keeping on
their turbans. On more than one occa-
sion NJ. Courtellemont nearly compromised
himself in consequence of his excessive
thirst the Arab custom being to refrain
from drinking until the meal is ended
On entering Mecca it was with difficulty
that he avoided treading upon the myriads

 Scores-The Races.

Montgomery, July 16.-(Special)-- Hayes Colts" took the second game from Memphis this afternoon. It was a hard fought battle, but Clausen's supe- riority in the box and his magnificent head work, backed by good support at critical points, are the causes of the vic tory. Montgomery failed to score until the fourth inning, when the batting of Kehoe, assisted by an error of McFar- land, netted the first two runs. Other runs, except in the sixth inning, were made on errors
 Clausens work was up to the stand ard. It looked at first that Memphis would win out, but the Monlgomerians got on to Osenburg and hit him for eleven bases. There was considerable kicking at the yellow decisions on both sides.
 Mcfarland, released by Montgomery, was sk.n ned by Memphis, and played his best game today.

A Negro Fiend Is Shot at and Pursued-The Wrong Man Caught-Jenifer Fur
 mace in Blast.

Anniston, July 16.-(Special)-The dia- bolical desires of a negro near Jenifer, Talladega county, caused him to attempt a terrible assault yesterday. Two daugh- ters of MT. George Wight. one of the most prominent and highly repsected citizens of that community, were passing along through a piece of woods near their home, when they met a negro who made indecent proposals to them and then ad- vanced as if to try force. The girls ran. screaming, to the house, where they told of what had happened. MT. Wright instructed them to go back. and taking his double barreled shotgun followed close behind diabolical purposes. MT. Wright then ap- peared upon the scene and fired two shots at the fiend, but it is believed that neither took effect. The negro fled, but dogs were secured and put upon his trial, which led in the direction of this city. The pursuers teephoned from Oxford and had arrested here a negro named Hamp Keeley Deputy Sheriff Frank Bryan had the negro locked up when they arrived, and knowing the indigna- ton existing refused to give him up, ex cept to the sheriff of Talladega county, although the men who had pursued him wanted to take him back to Jenifer last night. This morning Sheriff Dickinson of Talladega came In ana round that the wrong man had been arrested. Keeley was accordingly released. The name of the man who is really wanted is not known.

 of all cases of consumption can, if taken in the earlier stages of the disease, be cured. This may seem like a bold assertion to those familiar only with the means gener- ally ill use for its treatment as, nasty cod liver oil and it's filthy eniulsions, extract of malt, wlIiskey, different preparations of hypopiosplites and such like falIiatiaes.
 Although by many believed to be incura- ble. there is the evidence of hundreds of living witnesses to the fact that, i'll all its earlier stages, consumption is curable disease. Not every case, but c large per cenfaee of cases, and we believe, /niIp oS per ceni. are cured by Dr. Picrce's Golden Medical Discovery, even after the disease has progressed so far as to induce repeated bleedings from the lungs, severe lingering cough with copious expectoration dnclud- ing tubercular inatter), great loss of flesh and extreme emaciation and weakness.
 Do you doubt that hundreds of such cases reported to us as cured by Golden Med ical Discovery were genuine cases of that dread and fatal diseasef You need not take our word for it. They have, ill nearly every instance, been so pronounced by the best and most experienced home physicians, who have no interest whatever in 1nis- representing then and who were often strongly prejudiced and advised against a trial of "Golden Medical Discovery" but who have been forced to confess that it surpasses in curative power over this fatal nalady, all other medicines with which they are acquainted Nasty cod liver oil and its filthy 'cinulsions" and mixtures, had been tried in nearly all these cases and had either utterly failed to bene- fit, or had only seemed to benefit little for a short time. Extract of malt, whiskey, and various preparations of the hypopios- phites had also been faithfully tried ill vain.
