Anti Mic
Have You Tried 1t?

Do you use tobacco? Do you
want to get cured? d. you have
sleepless nights? Are you all run
down and don't know what ails YOU!
Tobacco is sapping the life out of
more people today than all other
diseases put together. Why! you
spit your life away. The nervous
system becomes diseased, giving
Dyspepsia, Indigestion, Catarrll Of
the Stomach, Heart Disease, Loss
OF Memory, Blindness, Dimness of
Vision, and many diseases of alike
nature. In fact, it will bring on
all diseases flesh is heir to. IT'S
the starting point for immortality,
drunkenness, morphine and opium
habits. 1t is the curse of the boys,
laying the foundation of a life Of
misery and want. Mothers, have
you boy, husband or brother
who uses tobacco? Do you want
them cured! Then praise God
from whom all blessings flow.
ANTI MIC is the lite-saver of all
who will faithfully follow the d.
rections. Why do we claim ANTI
MO will cure you? Because it
acts directly on the blood, remov-
ing the poison from the blood; acts
directly on the liver and stomach,
building up the whole system, Civ
ing tone and strength and making
a new being out of you.

Killed by n TI3in.

A fatal accident occurred at Clifton
Hill, Randolph county, last Ffiday
night in which Steven Gooch, a yepu.
table Salisbury negro, aged about IS
years, lost his life.
Gooch, IN company with Jim Per-
rin and another negro whose nams We
failed to learn, had hired team ffom
Phipps' livery stable at Clifton H7l Ior
the purpose of driving to Salisbury.
All three of the negroes were in,the
employ Of the Wabash Ballast woCks,
located about I L. miles east of fEf
ton Hill, but, it seems, made their
homes IN Salisbury when not engaged
on the ballast works.
Upon reaching Salisbury last Friday
night Perrin and the negro whose
name We failed to learn, imbibed too
freely of John Barleycorn, and were
exceedingly ripe" when they stared
back to their shanty near the ba1ast
works. Gooch being the only sober one
of the trio.
After leaving Perrin and his drunk
en- companion at the shanty, Gooch
started back to Clifton Hill to deliver
the buggy and team to Livesymen
Pnipps. and when he got near the g.
pot he noticed O freigat sra;n o1->-S
switch He had 10 wait until an op-
portunity presented itself for him to
cross the switch and the main track,
and when that opportunity came he
whipped up the team and started
across, only to be struck by the east
bound Omaha express as it dashed
past the depot, killing Gooch and both
of the horses and smashing the buggy
into smithereens.
The entire upper part of the unfor-
tunate young negro's skull was crushed
in and his body hurled about 90 feet
from the RAILROAD track.
The remains were brought to Sal
isbury on Saturday and were taken to
the home of Gooch's father, Nelson
Gooch, where his body was prepared
for burial and subsequently inferred in
the Salisbury cemetery.
The deceased had no family. ALI
who knew him speak of him in the
highest terms, and regarded him as
an ususually bright and honorable
young darkey.
