shortened and shorn of most of the pain.
We know that many doctors recon-
mend it, and we know that multitudes
of women go to the drug stores and buy

Iudge Sheffield Tries a Number
OF Interesting Cases at Spe-
ciaI Term of Court.

-y,ha snecial term of Terrell superior
oonTt which was convened by Judge
Sheffield on Tuesday morning of last
week was one of the most interesting
sossions Of that court which, has been
held ina long time.
It was adjourned Thursday at noon,
but Notwithstanding the short time 1t
was in operation considerable judicial
grist was turned out.
A number of cases, both civil and
criminal, were disposed of, but 1t was
+otbe latter branch of the court that
,post Of the time was devoted sand in
which the greatest interest was CEN
tered.
The case which aroused more inter-
est, perhaps, than any other was that
of the state against Mr.. F. S. Jett OF
Savannah, master of transportation OF
the Central railroad, for running an
excursion train through Terrell coun-
ty on Sunday two or three years ago.
He and Superintendent Hall OF the
South western division of the road ar
rived in Dawson Tuesday in the pri-
waite car of the latter, and Wednesday
afternoon Mr.. Jet entered a plea OF
guilty and was sentenced to six months
in Jail and a fine of 81, 900 by Judge
Sheffield. He was later relieved OF
the Jail sentence upon making an atfi-
dayit that when he signed an order for
the excursion train he did not know
that it was to be run on Sunday. This
case had been pending for some time,
and the officers had had some trouble
in getting Mr.. Jet to come to court.
He is under Indictment in Randolph
county for the same offense.
w. K. Mitchenir was found guilty Of
an attempt to produce an abortion and
given sentence of one year. He gave
bond and will appeal to the supreme
court
E. T. Miller, who cut Nightwatch-
man Welch at the shops of the Daw-
son Lumber and Machine Co., was
found guilty of stabbing and given a
sentence of twelve months or 800.
G. w. Chambless was sentenced to
six months or fine of $35 for tress-
passing.
Arthur Robinson and JEFF Davis, the
two small negro boys who burglarized
Whitchard g. Co.'S. store, were found
guilty, and upon recommendation OF
mercy by the jury were sentenced to
four months each in the chaingang.
Nan benson was convicted of as
saulting his wife with intent to MUIR
der, and was sentenced to ten years in
the penitentiary. In the row between
them he broke his wife's leg.
Gene Stevens, who robbed Mr.. F.
NJ. Jennings residence of some jewell
ny recently, was convicted OF burglary

their infant child to this place and
laid it to rest by the side of one sister

We point them to Him who knoweth

so live that they will be ready to go

Tacoma, Wash, July 4.-The most
appalling accident ever known in the
history Of Tacoma occurred Wednes-
day morning when the $3.50 Edison
car, loaded with excursiOnists com
ing to see the parade, was dashed
down 60 feet over the bridge at the
gulch where the track runs from
Delin street, burying the passengers,
among whom were many women and
children, under the wreck Of the
car. The car turned completely over
and mangled the unfortunate victims
into unacceptable shapes as the de-
bris crashed down the steep side Of
the gulch.
Twenty-Five dead were counted
around on the ground or on the
bridge where they lay half covered
up with gunnysacks or lay stark and
mangled, In pools of blood under the
feet Of the multitude, who passed
them with a shudder to look at the
wreck far down the bank of the
gulch. More than as many more
were carried away in carriages, ambU-
lances and the patrol wagon, and in
the cars which the railway company
sent to the scene to carry away the
wounded. By a correct count IS
men, women and children were killed
in the accident and Is were injured.
OF these latter fully one-half viii die.
The combined count of dead and in
jured equals exactly One-haf of the
number Of passengers in the car
when it left the bridge, that is to say,
52-there being 1O4 on board. The
gulch is over 12O feet deep, but where
the car first struck the steep en-
bankment was about so or go feet
down the side Of the guleh. Here the
first car crashed into the bank and
smashed along down the side Of the
gulch, grinding the victims under the
wreck.
