STORY OF A SLAVE

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

SENSIBLE f ADVICE ,
a Negro Bishop Speaks Wisely
to his People-The Outrager of
Women Must Die.

Memphis, Nov 25 Bishop Geo.
w Clinton, president Of the Afri-
can Methodist Episcopal confer
ence, in his episcopal address,
spoke of the state of the country
and condition Of the negro in the
United States. He said:
"America has attained fore
most place among the great powers
of the earth through the agency of
victorious armies AMI triumphant
navy.
1t seems that county which
is able to plant its standard in
foreign lands and push it's way to
the very fore front among the
great powers of the earth, ought
to he able to check lawlesSness
and violence at home, and yet the
indications are that lawlessness
may prove the bane Of our great
country.
owe, as ministers of the Gospel,
should preach against crime of all
kinds among our own people and
strive to so lift them up that they
NAV heCOme model citizanS in
virtue and obedience to law.
"While we deplore and detest
lynching, especially when 1t is
perpetratcd upon victims who are
charged with crimes for which, if
found guilty after due process of
law, would only merit q brief
period of imprisonment, we can
not fail to recognize the fact that
the man wEo outrages womanhood,
even Of the bascst type, has for
feited his right to live, and de-
serves to live onl y SO long as he
ne proven guilty after trial by
jury and Il reasonable time to
make his peace with God, if posi-
bly, he may.
1--WE must join voice and hand
to check crime and lawlessness. +"

A Hot Time in Alabama.

The senatorial campaign in Ala
bama is u reminder of the contest
in this State between Senator Till
man and ex-senator Butler.
Wednesday at Elkmont an excit-
ing Incident occurred in the de-
bate between Governor Johnston
and Senator John T Morgan.
The governor was nearing the
end of his time that day when he
began reading the alleged Wash
lngton interview with Senator
Morgan, in which the Senator
said that Bryan's leadership was
not necessary to the success OF the
party, and that another leader
might be found to lead the party
to victory Senator Morgan
arose and said: "You know,
Governor, you are misrepresent-
ing me-"
81 am, am "" replied the Gov
ernor.
"Yes," came the retort, "for
l'told you yesterday that this in
terview was not trne, but you
continue to misrepresent me, and
L say to you now, that if you do
it again, Governor or no Govern
or, l will hold you to account. "
The Senator had walked over to
where Governor Johnston was
standing and shook his finger at
him as he delivered his words.
There was considerable excite
ment and cries of "Sit down, sit
down." and "Let US do the fight
ing!" was heard. 1t was some
time before Governor Johnston
could resume.

The State, 25th inst.
Buried alive yet still lives.
That is the experience an unfor-
tunate negro workman on the
Seaboard Air Line work had in
the big Newman hill cut yester
day afternoon. His condition is
critical, both legs being broken
and it is net possible vet TO tell
whether he will survive his in
juries or not.
The negro, Reuben Williams,
was working IN the bottom of the
cut between 3 and 1 o'clock when
without warning great pile of
earth from the side caved in and
buried him beneath it. 1t is
stated that it took the entire
force, digging like mad, to uncov-
er and rescue the unfortunate
workman. He was still breath
ing when rescued, but botn his
legs were broken. As soon rs
possible the injured man WAS re.
moved to the colored hospital.
The extent of his injuries was not
known last evening. At the hos
pital late last night it was nm.
nounced that he still lived and his
condition was as good as there
was any reason to expect.

FEARS FOR THE SAFETY
OF GATACRE'S FORCE

LONDON. Dec. n.-Upon the heels OF
yesterdays news Of the gallant sortie
from Ladysmith this morning comes in
telligence of the practical defeat of Cen
eraI Sir w F. Gatacre in his first en-
gagement with the Beers. While this lat
ter reverse. though serious enough. is re-
garded as only an elementary check. still
it's effect upon the morale OF the Beers
and the minds OF wavering Dutch farm
ers in Cape Colony Will undoubtedly rem
der the task OF the British much more
difficult and drawn out.
General Gatacre, moving out Saturday
with 5000 men and two batteries OF artfI-
Iery from Putter's Kraal in the hope OF
surprising the Beers at Stormberg. was
misled by his guide and found himself in
an untenable position, with the result
that he was obliged 10 retire with Sc
we're losses upon Moltena He reports
over go officers and men missing in addi-
ton 10 a small list of killed and wounded
Reinforcements will doubtless be sent
up with all speed to make General CAT
acres position secure but the fact that
he has gravely underestimated the
strength of the Beers opposed TO him is
responsible for a feeling Of considerable
uneasiness as TO the immediate future OF
the campaign in that section of the coun
try.
News from Ladysmith created great an
thusiasm. General White evidently has
not forgotten the art OF delivering a
smashing blow at the enemy, nor have
