average rate in each county, is just u
fraction under 80 on each 800, as

necessarily mean that there has been an
increase all along the line in the tax
rate, but that it has been increased in
spots, thus bringing upthe average

Constipation is the cause Of nne-tenths of all

Constipation can be cured easily and certainly

What apparently seems to be n cold
blooded murder took place within our
county on Thursday night, the 4th
inst, and Mt this writing no arrests
have been made.
The victim, Captain George Farley, is
n wcll-known mill-wright who makes
his home with his son Alvin, Mt Wood
glen, II small village above Change
water, and formerly called White Hall.
Farley, on Thursday morning. left
home and drove to Pottersville To see
n man named Sovereign about some
mill wright work to be done Mt Somcr=
Vile. About four o'clock IN the after
II ron he was at Howard Sutton's store,
III Paramount and after leaving there
stopped at the distillery of w II Elem
ing. II short distance down the road.
Here he had "A ten dollar bill changed
and wanted another one also changed,
but Fleming could not furnish the
change for but one. When he left
ltiiibE y hi9hllltiN WV NbhbF ih'iis

got in the buggy with Farley to ride
to Mountainville, about two miles dis
tant. A short distance down the road
Mt house occupied by one Andrew
Sutton, who is known by the name Of
"Darl' Sutton, Captain Farley got out
4 4 1 A l..
see Sutton. The two young men re
manned in the buggy and started to
drive off. Farley seeing that they
were going, shouted to them to stop
and come back, but instead of doing
SO they tied the horse to the fence and
started to walk to MountaInyillc.
Shortly afterward Geo. s. Teats saw
Farley III the wagon and Sutton stand
ing between the wheels with the lines
in his hands. This was shortly before
six o'clock, and just about dark, when
Teats passed them.
Shortly after, John Jaquish, farm
laborer, while walking up the road saw
Farley's rig coming toward him, the
horse on brisk trot, and seeing no
one in the buggy, he hurried up the
road to see if any one had been hurt.
A quarter of mile up the road he
found Farley lying unconscious in the
road with pool of blood under his
head. DR. Miller, Of Califon, who was
called, found a hole in the skull larger
than silver dollar, the scalp cut
across the head and an ugly wound
across the hand On examination it
was found that not cent remained in
Farley's pockets, though it is certain
that he had at least 800 when he left
Fleming's distillery, and it is supposed
that this was not all he had The road
where he lay is soft sandy one,
and no evidence Of his having been
dragged could be found Mr.. Farley
fingered until the 9th inst, when he
died at .. 30 p. m, though he never re
gained consciousness.
If one half the suspicion pointing
in the direction Of certain parties is
warranted it seems strange TO MS
that an arrest has not been made.
The circumstances suu ounding the
case do not seem to warrant the belief
that it would be possible to have in
ficted the wounds Farley received ~
runaway accident, or that they could
have been inflicted by anything short
of an assassin's hand 1t is to be
hoped that the coroner's inquest will
bring forth some light on the subject,
and if it is case of murder that the
parties will soon be brought to justice.

EDITOR RECORD. The reporter who
furnished the item III your last issue
with regard to the death of my brother
law, Chas II. Hunt, shows the most
woful ignorance of the facts, and his
famiIy's feelings have been needless
" hurt thereby.
The physician in charge informed
the family that the deceased had not
taken carbolic acid and that his death
was due to natural causes The under
taker personally told me that it was
impossible for him to have taken car
bolic acid he did not detect it in the
process of preparing the body for bur
lal, and he found nothing of the kind
about him. He said, however, that his
left side was purple and his left limbs
stiff, which would indicate paralysis
| visited Mr. Hunt few days before
his death. and in my judgment he was
perfectly rat onal and talked business
as keenly as ever. He had heart
trouble for many years, and since he
was shocked by lightning, abont two
years ago, the trouble with his heart
has increased During the past few
months he has had several sinking
spells and his death was expected nj
any time His father and grand father
both died IN the same way, MS also
have other members Of the family, so
that sudden deaths are no unusual
thing in his family Reporters should
be careful and slow to report things Of
this kind
