MASKED ROBBERS
Relieve David Pullen Of S6560 and
Made Their Escape in the
Gathering Darkness.

Mr.. David Pullen, a prominent farmer
residing near jacksonville, in this coun-
ty, was robbed of sos 90 late last Sunday
evening, the particulars Of which are
about rs follows:
About shutdown Mr. and Mrs. Pullen
and a son were sitting in their house
when there came a rap at the front door.
MIR. Pullen, supposing it was a call from
some OF his neighbors,go up and OPP, ned
the door, when to his surprite, he was
confronted by two masked raen. The
burglars covered him with revolvers and
demanded his money.
Mrs Pullen and the son saw the stu
alton and while the young man sprang
to bed to get his pistol Mrs. Pullen ran
into the back yard and began ringing
the farm bell for help The young man
was stopped by one of the rogues while
the other went through the pockets OF
Mr.. Pullen and relieved him of the
amount mentioned above, when they
fled in the gathering darkness. Mrs.
Pullen had over $500 in her pocket,
but the ringing bell no doubt frightened
the scoundrels,a and prevented them from
pursuing the search beyond the pockets
OF Mr.. Pullen.
The masks concealed the features OF
the men and the Pullens failed to rec
oguize them by their clothing or any
marks. Darkness soon hid their fight
and they were not captured.

BRECKENRDGE county is as sure for
Bryan in November as ten cents is for a
ginger cake. No party is more sensibly
aware Of this than are the Republicans.
They are losing ground every day and
some of their strongholds have been in
vaded and number OF their followers
turned for Bryan. The silver cause is
the poor mans friend and those who
have hitherto bowed to the giant party
of plutocracy, will at least for once ask
for a change, This is not only the feel
ing here, but it is the feeling throughout
the country. Bryan and silver is the
watchword.

GOldbug Boosters Will Not Back
Their Propositions Regarding the

For several weeks back there has been
much growing and blowing around Clio
verport by the Republicans and their
decoy ducks, self-styled the "True-blue
Democrats" about the whole earth and
the adjacent islands going for McKin-
ley. Fabulous figures of msJorities and
fabulous sums to bet have been scrib-
bled around over houses and Office fronts.
Occasionally some Democrat sees fit to
take" some of the propositions and
offers to put up the money, but then it
is that the boaster usually goes to wrig-
Cling and twists out.
The recent false figures given out ss
the result Of the registration in Ken
lucky cities revived talk as regards the
fual result in this state. Loud were the
predictions and large were the PROPOSE
tions to wager that Kentucky was safely
in the Mckinley column. But, alas !!

yesterday morning by the following

There is no more dreaded disease bv
parents than fits, epilepsy and st. Yitus'

If there is one word OF advice we
would give to parents it is not to allow
children who become indisposed, nerv-
Gus or little out of order, to drift into
these terrible diseases. Neglect of the
first symptoms is nearly always ac-
countable for the termination in fits,
epilepsy or st. Nitus' dance.

toms appear. Watch the infant or
child and sec if it manifests any nerv-

It's perfectly wonderful record in cur
ing children, is the household remedy
IN nearly every home in the land. This

to infants or children Of any age. 1t
