FLORENCE HERALD
 ENDORSES WHEELER
Seconds His Nomination for the Senate to Succeed Senator Pettus-Beleyes
 Him Worthy.

Florence September 20-(Special) )-The Sheffield Reaper has suggested Gen. Joseph Wheeler as successor of Senator Pettus in 1902. The matter was premature and without any political significance, being independent in politics.
 The close personal friends of General Wheeler in this city have for several years past been anxious to see him slated for the Senate to fill the next vacancy, which will occur two years hence While holding an army position General Wheeler was prac- tically out of politics. and his friends did not wish to handicap him by any move ment with reference to the Senatorship as it would have been very embarrassing to him under the existing conditions and against army etiquette. General Wheeler's visit to Alabama has been non-political In spite of the fact that some papers have tried to impugn his motives and assign po- ltical ambition as the motive. The general stated here, and to all his personal friends, that he came to Alabama as soon as his commission expired to thank the people for the honors conferred upon him, and to as- sure them of his hearty appreciation of their loyal support in the past. General Wheeler has only visited North Alabama twice In the past two years, and then fog few short hours, once at the burial of his son, Tom, a naval cadet, and again with the rivers and harbors commission on their trip down the Tennessee river on a tour of inspection.
 The Herald, one of General Wheeler's warmest supporters in the past, endorses the suggestion of the Reaper in an editorial today, and says: "The Herald seconds the nomination of General Wheeler for the Sem ate. We believe that the people of Alabama will heartily approve the nomination and will be glad to honor this great man for his loyalty to his State and his country, and his services to his party in the past" Lau- derdale County has always been banner Wheeler county, and will gladly support him if he should decide to make the race for the Senate.

The Leader Killed by Planter Who Was Be- sieged in His Home-wantcd
 Wages Advanced.

Atlanta, Ga, September H.-A special from Columbia, s. C., says:
 At Eastover, twenty miles below this city, negroes working on the cotton plant auon of w. s. Hodge struck for an advance of 10 cents a hundred for picking cotton. he demand was refused by Hodge and neighboring farmers.
 "A band of negroes gathered about Hodges house, cursing and threatening. He reported the names of a number to the nearest trial justice. They were fined s each.
 Negroes followed Hodge from the trial justices office, gathering in numbers until 400 arrived at the house. They surrounded his dwelling, in which Hodge, his wife and two children barricaded themselves.
 When the crowd advanced to the door Hodge shot down the leader and they fell hack. Mrs. Hodge, with a revolver, stood by her husbands side during the four hours of suspense.
 Finally three neighboring planters came to their rescue on horseback and scattered most of the negroes, who are, however, still making threats. A supply of arms was ob- tained from this city this afternoon"

FOUR NEGROES HUNG
 BY LOUISIANA MOB Charged With BurgIarizlng Res idenCe of Prominent Citizen AN OAK TREE THE SCAFF0LD The Victims Were Selected from Among Fourteen Prisoners Held on Sus-

 People of the Parish
AN OAK TREE THE SCAFFOLD

Ponchatoula La, September 21.-Four ne- were suspected of burglarizing the resi- dence of Henry Hatfelder, whose home is near the Illinois Central depot In Tangi- pahoa Parish. The victims are:
 Isiah Pollins, age IS.
 Nathanial Bowman, age 47.

 It is stated that there has been an cpl demic of burglares in the lower section of Tangipahoa parish of late. A vigilance committee was long ago formed for the opportunity presented itself. The opportun- ity came yesterday, when Hatfelder report ed that his residence had been entered the night before and robbed of $25O in cash
 As soon as the facts were known, de- sire for instant action seized the people. The authorities acted with great promptness, arresting fourteen suspects during the day. These were confined in the small jail. Dur ing the day there was suppressed excite ment and it was evident that some of the negroes would be severely dealt with. About o'clock last night the doors of the jail were broken open and the four negroes most guilty were taken out and hung to the limbs of large oak tree, which was standing near the jail.
 The good people Of Poncha toula, both white and black, deplore the action of the mob, and today both races assembled in mass meeting and appointed 8 law and or der committee.

A DAILY NUISAN CE.
A Simple Remedy Which Will Interest
 Catarrh Sufferers

In it's earlier stages catarrh is more of a nuisance than menace to the general health, but sooner or later, the disease ex- tends to the throat, bronchial tubes and even to the stomach and intestines. Catarrh is essentially a disease of the mucous membrane, the local symptoms be- ing a profuse discharge of mucous, stop page of the notrils, irritation in throat, causing coughing, sneezng, gaggng and frequent clearinSs Of the throat and head
 The usual treatment by local douches, snuffs, salves etc., often gives tempor- ary relief, but anything like cure eau only be obtained by treatment which re- moves the catarrhal taint from the blood and the disappearance Of the inflammation from the mucous surfaces.
 A new remedy which meets these require ments and which so far has been remarka- bly, successful in curing catarrh is Stuarts Catarrh Tablets.
 These tablets act upon the blood and mucous membranes only. They can hardly be called a secret patent medicine as they are composed of such valuable remedies as Sanguinaria, Hydrastin, Eucalyptol and similar cleansing antiseptos, which cure by eliminating from the blood and mucous surfaces the catarrhal poison. Stuarts Catarrh Tablets are large, pleasant tasting lozenges taken internally allowing them to dissolve slowly in the mouth in this way they reach the throat, fauceS and the entire al1mentary canal If desired, they may also be dissolved in water and used as a douche, in addition to the internal use, but it is not at all nec- essary to use a douche; few of them dis solved in the mouth daily will be suffic- tent. However when there is much stop page of the nose, douche made from these tablets will give immediate relief, but the regular daily use internally of these tablets will cure the whole catarrhal trouble without resorting to the inconven- fence of a douche
 Dr. Bement states "that the internal treatment for catarrh is rapidly taking the place of the old plan of douching and local application and further says that probably the best and certainly the safest remedy at present on the market is Stuarts Catarrh Tablets as no secret Is made of their composition and all the really efficient remedies for catarrh are contained in this tablet"
 Druggists sell Stuart's Catarrh Tablets at fifty cents for full sized packages. AsN your druggist and if he Is honest he will tell you there Is no safer more pala table, more efficient and convenient remedy on the market.

AMUSEM

In breaking away from the traditions which have long dictated a minstrel first part, Al. G. Field gave another example of his leadership in aA that is original and best in the minstrel world. The first to re- lieve the opening scene of his performance of all that eye had so long tired of, he was also the first to improve and expand his departure. This year he has taken an Ger long stride forward, and in conse- quence comes to us with first part set
 ting, which, for novelty and design and beauty of execution has never been equalled by any attempt that he has formerly done. He has taken as his inspiration the Paris exposition, and in his first part shows us a night in the gay French capital during the progress of the great carnival. Lights everywhere throw their rays upon a scene of splendor. The costuming, the scenic eff fects, the figures upon the stage, all blend into an ensemble. The programme is one in keeping with its surroundings, the sing CTS, the testers, the music, all combine to complete the picture, the ideal of an Amer ican minstrel first part. The closing spec tacle, "The Fete at Mecca" Is another chapter of interest. This is the closing scene of the minstrel programme, which will be at the Jefferson Theater next Mon day, with a bargain day matinee.
