A F-WITTED LAD
Who Was Being Prosecuted by Others
Near Bloeton, Split Ones Skull With
an AK, Killing Him Instantly.

Late Monday afternoon Isaac Creel, a
half-witted youth, turned upon his tor
mentors and killed one of them, Elijah
Price a married man, at Blocton, with
an ak.
1t is said that Price and many other
companions were in a suburb of Blocton,
known as Suttletown, and were enjoying
themselves by tormenting the lad. When
the tormentors saw that their gbes an
gered the boy they redoubled their efforts
and succeeded in arousing him into a
terrible passion.
1t is said that Price threatened to kill
the boy, by way of jest and advanced to-
ward him in lf-threatening way,
whereupon Creel picked up an ak and
struck the man over the head, inflicting
such a wound that Price died almost i'll
stantly.
The news of the tragedy spread rapidly
and greatly shocked the people of Blocton
and surroundings but opinion seemed to
be in the light of the proyerbial worm
turning upon its assailants."
The wife and two children, who are
thus suddenly left husband and father
less are greatly pitied. but the blame for
the tragedy is not placed upon the boy
who will in all probability be placed in
closer confinement to guard against a
repetition of such an occurrence.
Creel was placed in prison Immediately
after the tragedy.

THE METH0D OF A GREAT TREATMENT
Which Cured Him After Everything Else
Failed.

Painful diseases are bad enough, but
when man is slowly wasting away with
nervous weakness the mental forebod-
ings are ten times worse than the most
severe pain. There is no let-up to the
mental suffering day or night. Sleep is
almost impossible and under such a
strain men are scarcely responsible for
what they do. For years the writer
sexual weakness, until ii was question
whether he had not better take dose OF
poison and thus end all his troubles. But
providential inspiration came to his aid
in the shape of a combination of medi-
cines that not only completely restored
the general health, but enlarged his
weak, emaeiated parts to natural size
and vigor, and he now declares that any
man who will take the trouble to send
his name and address may have the
method of this wonderful treatment free.
NOW when L say free, 1 mean absolutely
without cost, because / want every weak
ened man to get the benefit of my expe-
rience. a
am not a philanthropist, nor dc pose
as an enthusiast but there are thousands
OF men suffering the mental fortunes of
weakened manhood who would be cured
at once could they but get such remedy
as the one that cured me. Do not try to
study out how l can afford to pay the
rev postage stamps necessary to mail the
information, but send for 1t and
learn that there are a few things on
earth that, although they cost nothing
to get, they are worth a fortune to some
men, and mean lifetime of happiness TO
most Of us. Write to Thomas Slater. Box

ton will be mailed in a plain sealed en-
velope. S-30-su&wed-tf

Ouackery is always discov-
ering remedies which will
act upon the germs of disease
directly and kill them. But
no discovery has ever yet
been approved by doctors
which will cure consump-.
ton that way. Germs can
only be killed by making the
body strong enough to over
come them, and the early
use of such a remedy as
SCOTS Emulsion is one of
the helps. In the daily war
fare man keeps up, he wins
BEST who is provided with
the needed strength, such as
Scott's Emulsion supplies.

| From the MeyersdRle Commercial.
A great many of the older readers of
the Commercial will possibly remember
Henry Hanger who lived aud died near
Pine Hill some twenty or thirty years
ago. lie was one of nine children u
boys aud girls who were the offspring
OF John Hanger who came from Ger
many about I775. These children scatter
ell one of the SONS, Daniel, moved to
Wayne county. Mich. and the others
scattered over various parts of the coun-
ty of which the Hangers in Somerset
county are the direct descendants.
Henry had six children daniel who
died i'm Somerset some five years ago,
Samuel who died at Berkley's years
ago and jacob who moved to Michigan
10 his uncle Daniel. Lydia now widow of
VIM. Walker deceased, Catharine wife of
Ezra Berkeley of Berkleys Mill and Peg
gy, demented.
Jacob lived near Vermonticello, Mich,
and had four children. In 1859 Jacob
got the gold fever and went to California
leaving his wife and small children at
some property and money he wrote his
wife that he intended coming home, but
on account of the war (this was in '63)
his wife thought best for him not to re-
turn just then ON account of the perils
and loneliness along the road. Commu-
nication was interrupted until 1865 when
they again communicated for sometime,
finally he wrote that he was coming home
just as soon as he could arrange his finan-
cial matters, which would require only a
few weeks. This was the last they heard
from him until a few weeks ago.
Mrs. Hanger flor they changed their
name to conform with the English pro-
nunciation when they moved to Mich
iganl finally after waiting for many
years and thinking he was dead married
again. Both she and her husband have
long since been dead. One of the chill
dren is also dead, but the three remain
ing children continued to hope that some
though there had been firm belief that
