SKILL OF DOCTORS TEsIf
Fifteen Years OF Suffering.
81 thought should surely die

When The stomach begins TO fail in
its duties, other organs speedily become
affected in sympathy, and life is simply a
burden almost unbearable. Indigestion
and dyspepsia are so common that only
the sufferer from these diseases knows
the possibilities of misery that inhere in
them. A typical example Of the sufferings
Of the victim of indigestion is furnished
In the case Of John c. Pritchard. He went
on for fifteen years, from bad to worse.
In spite of doctors he grew constantly
weaker. and thought he would die. He
got we'll, however, and thus relates his
experience:
70 fifteen years I was a great sufferer
from indigestion in its worst forms. 1
tested the skill of many doctors, but grew
worse aud worse, until 1 became so weak
! could not walk fifty yards without having
to sit down and rest. My stomach, liver,
and heart became affected, and l thought l
would surely die. I tried DR.. ]. c. Ayers
Pills and they helped me right away. l
continued their use and am now entirely
we'll. I don't know of anything that viii
so quickly relieve and cure the terrible
sufferings Of dyspepsia as DR.. Ayers
P~ills."-JoHN c. PRITcHARD, Brodie. War

MISSISSIPPI MATTERS.



jackson, Jan. a.-Word was received
here this morning from the Alcorn Agri-
cultural and Mechanical College lor
Colored People, near Rodney, that the
president of the college, E. II. Triplett'
was shot and fatally wounded last
evening while he was on his way %
church. He was shot in the back by
the assassin with a 42-caliber revolver
as shown by the bullet extracted from
his body.
State superintendent of Education
Kincannon was Immediately notified oil
the shooting, and he was requested 10
send the bloodhounds stationed ut the
Oakley farm.
There is no clew to the assassin. The
shooting was done on the college
grounds, as the church is located WITHIN
a stones throw of the college building
For the last two years there has been
IA great deal of discord in the faculty,
and Triplett and the professors under
him have not gotten on harmoniously'
The trouble has been caused by some
ambitious members of the faculty, who
have been trying to Gust Triplett and
get the presidency for themselves, but
the State board of education has re-
fused to remove him because they con-
sidered that he was the man for the
place. In the faculty troubles and the
bitterness there engendered, it is pos
sible that a clew may be found to the
killing.
Triplett was for ten years principal
of the negro graded school at Meridian,
and there was universally esteemed by
whites and blacks. He is a man OF
much sense and Judgment.
The latest report from Rodney is that
Triplett is m~omentarily expected to die.

beware of Ointn,ents for Catarrh
That Contain Mercury,

as mercury will surely destroy the sense of
smell and completely derange the whole sys-
TEN when entering it through the mucous
surfaces. Such articles should never be
used except on prescriptions from reputable
physicians, as the damage they will do is
often ten fold to the good you can possibly
derive from them. Halls Catarrh Cure,
manufactured by F. j. Cheney L Co, Toledo,
