THE WORK OF EMF
Diabolical Attempt to Burn n Younl
GeOrgia Gin to Denth.

Attempt to Burn n Oung
Georgia Girl to Death.
Atlanta, Ga, Feb. ia letter was
received yesterday by Governor Atkin-
son from Sheriff Patterson, of Decatur
county, giving the pare facts regard
ing the horrible efforts of three drunken
negroes one day last week to burn to
Heath the daughter of James Alday, a
prominent citizen of a district remote
from Geographic facilities in Decatur
county. The girl, who is about 1G years
of age, had occasion to go to a spring
about 200 yards from her fathers house
and on returning through a dense
thicket she was seized by three ne
groes, whom she had never seen before,
and when they discovered that she was
the daughter of Alday two of them
firmly held her while the third applied
matches to the skirts of her clothing.
She was detained until the flames were
licking her face and had eaten into her
undergarments and then released. She
ran screaming to her fathers door,
where she arrived with not a shred of
clothing on her body and literally one
huge blister. Immediate attention was
given her and every effort made to save
her live, but the latest reports from
the place indicate hat her death is
hourly expected. The sheriff is making
every effort to discover the fiends. The
governor is investigating the affair, and
1t is very probable a large reward will
be offered for the apprehension of the
three men.

GET DOWN TO CAUSES.
Shenandoah People Reason Easily
and Consistently Nowadays.

In former times linimonts and plasters
sold over all internal remedies, because
people mistuok effects for diseases and at
tackled a pain where they found it. Tenn
porary relief convinced them they were
right, aud so they laid a return of the pain
to u return Of the complaint, when in fact,
the disease was there all the time. Backache
is not an aching of the back, but an aching
of the kidneys, and remedies must reach the
kidneys. and he perfect in the work at that,
before permanent relief is secured. DOan's
Kidney Pills are perfect in their work and
permanent in their cure. A backache gives
way at once because the kidneys resume their
normal functions and there is nothing to
ache. There is nothing So hard to combat as
tho evidence of our senses, and yet all who
believe us ON the subject Of hackache are
glad they did because of the cure.
Mr.. Augusta Swegler, of Ii East Goa
street, miner, found in the old Quaker
remedy just as certain IA cure for a bad
Jack as many other Shenandoah citizen,
have found, and he does not hesitate to re
commend it strongly. lie says - used

The Florida Limited viii Again Run on
the southern Railway.

The Florida Limited, which is the syn
onym of all that is elegant in modern rail
way trains, and which during its former
service has been a prime favorite for tourists
from the North seeking the mild climate of
Florida, will be placed in service by the
Southern Railway about the first week in
January. 1898 With its return to service this
train, which will be solid Pullman vestibuled
between New York, Philadelphia and st.
Augustine will present features in the way of
luxurious and comfortable appointments not
heretofore presented, and which will lie
destined to add still further to its already
well established popularity.
The Southern Railway is having built for
the Florida Limited service three trains, each
containing a dining car, two drawing room
sleeping cars, a compartment ear and a
library and observation car, each car COM
plete in all its appointments and equipped
with the very latest devices and appliances
for the comfort and convenience of the pas
sengers. While no schedule has as yet been
announced, it can be stated that it will be the
quickest ever arranged between Philadelphia
and st. Augustine, and will be so planned
that passengers can leave Philadelphia at
some convenient hour during the day and ar
rive at st. Augustine before nightfall of the
following day.-Philadelphia Record.

Washington, Feb. 1S.-After a spirited
debate occupying more than two hours
the senate yesterday, by a vote of "a to
20, agreed to the resolution of Mr.. Tur-
pie. of Indiana, declaring the %senate's
opposition to the confirmation of the
sale of the Kansas Pacific railroad. 1t
was developed by the discussion that
the government would receive from the
sale of the Union and Kansas Pacific

take a final vote upon the Corbett case
on Monday, Feb. 2S.
The debate on the bankruptcy bill
dragged along listlessly in the house

DIR. WURTH'S OPINION
OF THE NEW DISCOVERY IN MED
ICINE.
A Remarkably Successful Remedy For
Dyspepsia, Indigestion and Stomach
Troubles.

n nGmd hdDly ouCScoolul htulGuJ EoI
Dyspepsia, Indigestion and Stomach
Troubles.
DIR. Wurth, in commenting on recent dis
cOveries in medicine said There is none
which is certain to be so valuable and far
reaching in benefit as Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets, the new stomach remedy | say far
reaching, because people little realize how
important a sound stomach and vigorous di-
g]estion is to every man, woman and child.
Indigestion is the starting point of con
sumption, heart disease, Bright's disease,
diabetes, nervous prostration, liver troubles
why is this so? Simply because every nerve,
muscle and tissue in our bodies is created
and nourished from the food we eat. If that
food is, by reason Of a weak stomach, COM
PEELED TO lie for hours, a sour, %fermenting
mass of half digested food, it poisons the
blood and nervous system, creates gas which
distends the stomach and bowels, causing
pressure on the heart, lungs aud other
organs aud seriously impeding their action.
lie says further, the point to direct atten-
ton is not the nerves, nor heart, nor lungs
nor kidneys, but the stomach, the first cause
of all the mischief.
The remedy to use for indigestion and
weak stomachs is not some catharGic, but a
remedy which will digest the food, increase
the flow of gastric juice, absorb the gases,
aud Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will accom-
plish exactly this result in any case Of stom-
ach trouble, because these tablets are com
posed of the digestive acids, aseptic pepsin,
Golden Seal and Bismuth, pleasant TO taste,
and not being a patent medicine, can be
used by anyone with perfect afety. | believe
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will cure any
form OF indigestion aud stomach trouble
except cancer Of s,Omach.
Full size packages of Stuarts Dyspepsia
Tablets are sold by druggists at so cents. A
book on stomach diseases together with
thousands Of testimonials will be sent by ad-
dressing Stuart Co., Marshall, Mich.

SPAIN DISCREDITS De LOME.


Ministry Dt~claims Ills Harsh Criti-
ci-m of Pre- sldent Mckinley
Washington, FEB. 1S.-Spain has Of
hCiHllN iis,llimrd in positive
he reflections contained in the De
LONE letter. and as officially announced
by the state department yesterday, the
incident is satisfactorily closed. The
following is an abstract of a note sent
by the Spanish government to Min
lister Woodford at Madrid:
The spanish government, on learning
of the incident in which Minister Du-
puy DE LONE was concerned, and be-
iug advised Of his Objectionable COM
muufcation. with entire sincerity, la
meuts the incident which was the
cause of the interview with the min
lister. Minister De LONE had presented
his resignation and it had been accept
ed before the presentation of the mat
ter by Minister Woodford.
The Spanish ministry, in accepting
the resignation Of a functionary whose
services they have been utilizing and
yaluing up to that time, leaves it per
fectly well established that they do not
share, or rather, on the contrary, dis
authorize the criticisms tending to Of
fend or censure the chief of a friendly
state, although such criticisms had been
written within the field of friendship,
and had reached publicity by artful and
criminal means. h meaning had
taken shape in a resolution by the
council of ministers before General
Wuodford presented the matter, and at
a time when the Spanish government
had only vague Geographic reports con-
corning the sentiments alluded to. The
Spanish nation with equal and greater
reason anirms it's view and decision af-
ter reading the words contained in the
letter rejecting upon the president of
the United States.
