A masked mob of 100 men at Palmet-
to, Ca, did bloody work on Wednes-
day night of last week. Since January
two incendiary fires have destroyed
many valuable buildings in that town.
Bud Cotton, negro, confessed that he
and eight other negroes had set fire to
the buildings. They were arrested and
were guarded in warehouse to wait
trial next morning. But the indignant
citizens from the county, masked, rode
into town, overpowered the six guards,
lined the negroes up and poured two
volleys of bullets into them. The re-
suit was, Bud Cotton, Henry Bingham,
Tip Hudson and Ed. Brown were killed
outright, John Bigby died afterwards,
while Glenn Watts, George Taylor,
Isham Brown and JOHN Amison were
wounded. The mob rode away in the
dark. Governor Gambler sent a CON-
pany of soldiers to Palmetto to preserve
the peace and offered reward for the
lynchers.

decision is that no municipal authority
can contract for term of years. The
Dawson council had contracted with
the light and water company for q
term Of years, but the contract was
annulled. The company applied to the
courts to compel the council to fulfill
the contract, but the supreme court
holds that such contract is invalid
under the. constitution. and may be
nullified, the power Of council to con-
trict being limited to the current year.
This decision establishes precedent

Pe-ru-na is known from the Atlantic
to the Pacific. Letters of congratula-
ton and commentator testifying to
the merits of Pe-ru-na as a catarrh rem
edy are pouring in from every state in
the Union. DR.. Hartman is receiving
hundreds of such letters daily. All
classes write these letters, from the
highest to the lowest.
The outdoor laborer, the indoor arti
san, the clerk, the editor, the statesman,
the preacher-all agree that Pe-ru-na is
the catarrh remedy of the age. The
stage and rostrum, recognizing catarrh
as their greatest enemy, are especially
enthusiastic in their praise and testi-
mony.
Any man who wishes perfect health
must be entirely free from catarrh. Ca
tarrh is well-nigh universal; almost
omnipresent. Pe-ru-na is the only alb
solute safeguard known. A cold is the
beginning of catarrh. To prevent colds,
to cure colds, is to cheat catarrh out of
its victims. Pe-ru-na not only cures ca
tarrh, but prevents. Every household
should be supplied with this great rem
edy for coughs, colds and so forth.
The Governor of Oregon is an ardent
admirer Of Pe-ru-na. He keeps it con-

Kalsomines are cheap and temporary

the walls with decaying animal glue. Ala
bastine is not a kalsomine. 1t is a rock

Catarrh Cannot BE Cured

with Local Applications, as they cannot
reach the seat of the disease. Catarrh is a
blood or constitutional disease, and in order
to cure it you must take internal remedies.
Halls Catarrh Cure is taken internally, and
acts directly on the blood and mucous sur
faces. Halls Catarrh Cure is not Guack
medicine. 1t was prescribed by one OF the
best physicians in this country for years,
and is a regular prescription. 1t is com
posed of the best tonics known, combined
with the best blood purifiers, acting direct
ly on the mucous surfaces. The perfect
combination of the two ingredients is what
produces such wonderful results in curing

WHAT ALABAsTINE Is.

Alabastine is the original and only dur
able wall coating on the market. 1t is
entirely different from ali kalsSmine
preparations. Alabastine is made ready
for use in white or twelve beautiful
tints by the addition of cold water. 1t is
put up in dry powdered form, in five
pound packages, with full directions on
every package. 1t takes the place of
scaling kalsomines, wall paper and paint
for walls. Alabastine can be used on
plaster, brick, wood or canvas, and a
child can brush it on.

Letters from Northern homeseekers

their attention directed toward the
Cumberland Plateau. The great draw
back to this section heretofore has been
lack of railroad facilities, but now, as

Central railway is assured, the pros

AN EXCELLENT COMBINATION.
Successful Enterprise BASED on Merit
The Importance of Informing the
Public of the Value of an Article
Through the Leading Newspapers.

The few remedies which have attained to
worldwide fame, as truly beneficial in
effect and giving satisfaction to millions of
people everywhere, are the products of
the knowledge of the most eminent ply
sicians, and presented in the form most
acceptable to the human system by the
skill of the worlds great chemists; and one
of the most successful examples is the
Syrup of Figs manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. Unlike a host of
limitations and cheap substitutes, Syrup of
Figs is permanently beneficial in its effects,
and therefore lives and promotes good
health, while inferior preparations are be-
ing cast aside and forgotten. In olden
times if remedy gave temporary relief to
individuals here and there, it was thought
good; but nowadays a laxative remedy
must give satisfaction to all. If you have
never used Syrup cf Figs, give it trial.
and you will be pleased with it, and will
recommend it to your friends or to any who
suffer from constipation, or from over-feed-
ing, or from colds, headaches, biliousness,
or other ills resulting from an inactive con-
ditlon OF the kidney, liver and bowels.
In the process OF manufacturing the
pleasant family laxative made by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup CO., and named Syrup of
Figs, figs are used, as they are pleasant to
the taste; but the medicinal properties of
the remedy are obtained from an excellent
combination of plants known to be medi-
clnally laxative ana TO act most Denenclally.
As the true and original remedy, named
Syrup of Figs, is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only, knowledge of
that fact will assist in avoiding the worth
less limitations manufactured by other
parties. The Company has selected for
years past the leading publications of the
United States through which to inform the
public of the merits OF its remedy, and
among them this paper is included, as will
be seen by reference to its advertising col
umns.
