Story of q Slave

To be bound hand and foot for
years by the chains of disease is
the worst form of slavery. Geo.
ID. Williams, Of Manchester,
Mich. tells how such a slave was
made free. He says: "My wife
has been so helpless for five years
that she could not, turn over in
the bed alone. After using two
bottles Of Electric Rltters, she is
wonderfully improved and able to
do her own work." This supreme
remedy for female diseases quick
iy cures nervousness, sleepless-
ness, melancholy, headache, back
ache, falntIng and dizzy spells.
This miracle working medicine is
a godsend to weak, sickly, run
down people. Every bottle guar
anteed. Only so cents. Sold by

Trouble at DunnellOn

Sunday night several negroes
were arrested at Dunnellon for
stealing goods from merchants.
This was accomplished by means
of pass keys. Three of them were
locked up and the fourth, Robert
Alexander, shot Marshal Payne
through the shoulder and es-
capped. The citizens organized,
got blood hounds, put them on
his track and were in a fair way
to capture their man when a fire
was discovered, which the men
thought was in the business part
of town. The chase was aban-
doned and every one went to the
fire, which turned out to be the
pest house, occupied by the small
pOx victims when that disease
was prevalent in Dunnellon. The
house was a fine one and burned
to the ground. 1t had been set
on fire by negroes to divert at
tention from tho escaping thief.
1t was feared that more trouble
would result, and Sunday night
was a very uneasy one for the
merchants, who feared a general,
firing of the town.
Most of the goods, nearly 5000
worth, were stolen from G.. Ct.
Leitner, but 4 good portion were
recovered.
Nixon e Kelly also lost a big
amount of goods.
