Sergcant--An Effort That was Try
ing but Successful.
From the journal, Detroit, Mich:
Prominent i'm the military circles of
Detroit is Max Il. Davies, the popular
and efficient First Sergeant of Com
pany Il, Detroit Guardsmen. Mr.. Da-
vies has been a resident of Detroit,
Mich, for the past six years, and re-
sides at I16 Third avenue. For four
years he was connected with the well
known wholesale drug house of Far
rand, Williams O. Clark. in the cnpac-
ity of boolkeeper.
81 have charged up many thousand
orders for DR.. Williams Pink Pills"
said Mr.. Davies. "bue never knew
their worth until | used them for the
cure of chronic dyspepsia. For two
years ! suffered and doctored for that
aggravating trouble but could only
be helped temporarily.
81 think dyspepsia one of the most
stubborn of ailments and there is
scarcely a clerk or Office man but
what is more or less a victim. Some
days | could eat anything while at
other times | would be starving. Those
distressed pains would force me to
quit work.
81 tried the hot water treatment
thoroughly, but it did not effect my
case. | have tried many advertised
remedies, but they would help only
for time. A friend of mine recon-
mcnded DIR. Williams Pink Pills.
II finally was induced to try the
pills and commenced using them. AZ
ter taking a few doses l found much
relief | do not remember how many
boxes of pills | used, but | used them
until the old trouble stopped. l know
they will cure dyspepsia of the worst
form and am pleased to recommend
them"
BY restoring to the blood the re-
! 0uiste constituents of life. DR.. VIII
| liams' Pink Pills renew the nerve
force and enable the stomach to prop
erly assimilate the food, thus speedily
and permanently curing the dyspep-
tic. These pills are a specific for all
| diseases having their origin in i'm
poverished blood or dsordered nerves.
! They contain every element relative
to general nutrition. to retore the
strength to the weak, good health to
the ailing. Physicians prescribe them
druggists recommend them and every
where the people use them.

An Exciting Arrest.

The following "graphic' description
OF the arrest of NJ. Ringrose last Sun
day is taken from a dispatch to the N.
| y. 1lmes-Democrat from Opel0usas,
dated January Is. 1893:
Abont six weeks ago wealthy broth
er in New York died. and Ringrose in
|lerited about 100000 This sudden
/ stroke OF fortune seems to have unbal-
anced his mind, aid people noticed that
he commenced to act queer. On New
Iears's Day he drew about $500 flom
| the bank and distributed the money
about town, handing's2O bills to ci,il.f-'
rem on the streets. He -9are az hy
horses, mules and various other " llgs.
He leased a stall ia Che public market,
| aud when people would not buy meat
from him he would insult them, going
SD far as to strike Kenneth, BaIiio, a
to patronize him. People did not know
whether he was crazy or drunk, and no
charges were made against him.
Tins morning at about 7 O'Clock he
went to one of his tenants houses, and
opening the door, began to tire pro-
mscuonsIy at man, wife and children,
declaring they bad to vacate his place
The tenant, knowing that Ringrose was
insane, did not shoot him, which he
could have done, as he bad shotgun
IN his hands, but came to town aud re-
ported the matter to Sheriff Frazee
The sheriff and his chief deputy, Carl
ton N. Ogden, at once went to arrest the
crazy man. When they reached his gate
they were halted by Ringrose. who
stood on his gallery with two Winches-
ter rifles. The officers advanced not
withstanding, and grabbed the unfor-
tunate fellow, and were about to con
vey him to their buggy, when the three
women OF the house, his wife and two
daughters, took a hand in the affair
and waded into the officers with brick
bats, stove-wood and anything they
could get their hands on.
A desperate battle took place, in
which the officers got the worst of it.
They did not want to strike either the
crazy man or the women. Finally |
Ringrose broke away from Sheriff Fra.
zee and started for his rifle, and Deputy
Ogden shot at him, only grazing his
shoulder. Tie shot had the effect of |
him, but he had to be beaten
on the head with the butt end Of pis-
tol before he could he taken. He was
taken to Jail, and as soon as interdcted
will be conveyed to Jackson Deputy
Ogden declares that the whole family is
insane.

The Baton Rouge Advocate is emf
nentIy correct when it says that the
people Of this State have already had
a sad experience with the result of elect
i've franchise il the hands of negroes.
The negro himself has been ruined by
being clothed witt, such pove before
he was able to understand its import or
to appreciate the responsibilities Of citi-
zenship. Negro suffrage was thrust up-
on the people of the South by victo-
rious foe whose only object was to hu-
initiate the white people of this section
and take the government out of their
hands. The enfranchisement Of the
negro was a crime against humanity,
perpetrated in spirit of hatred and
revenge and makes one of the darkest
pages in the history of our country. It
brought woes unDnmbered upon the
people of the Southern States and re-
suited in the debauchment Of the nego
himself. This maiific work must be
nndone as far as possible by the Con-
stitutional Convention and the Demo-
cratic party is the only party pledged to
it's accomplishment. Every white man
is in duty bound to support that party
as the only one through which relief
can he obtained.

Few people properly estimate the
work of journalism. The incessant toll,
the brain work and keeping abreast of
the trend of human aff,irs and the pro-
gress of the age impose burden of no
small magnitude upon the researches
and thoughts of the editor. The news
papers of to-day are the educators Of the
public mind upon all subjects of mo-
ment that confront the wealth OF the
people either in political or sociological
sense, and to perform this responsible
mission requires profound investigation
as well as mature reflection. AS mat
