WITH 4 SHOTGUN
One Negro Gains Possession of
 Another's Home.

Robert Johnson went to Swan Lake this afternoon after Harrison Davis, a negro, who is wanted on n cha-ge of assault with intent to kill.
 Davis is the negro who was fined by Judge Nivea Saturday for tres- pass. He was fined S100 and costs and four months Imprisonment, but the fine was later reduced and paid by Davis employer.
 Davis has during the past several weeks given Henry Jones, Su an Lake negro, much trouble about a piece Of land near Swan Lake, which is clearly titled to Jones. He has gone so far to force Jones to kill him but Jones escaped that trouble by complying with Davis demands. Saturday. as stated bove, Davis was fined for trespassing on Jones' property and the officers thought that settled the matter.
 Today (Monday1 comes word from Swan Lake that Davis, with the aid of a shot gun, had run Jones from his home and off his (Jones' ] place and now holds the fort.
 Robt. J Johnson thinks he will have no trouble in arresting Davis, but he is thought to be bad man.

"POOR MAYS SHEL TER. '
An Institution of Which Every eiti-
 zen Should Be Proud.

The poor mans shelter that is be- ing conducted in this city for out of-work people, under the manage ment of Rev. Sam $. Holcomb, of the Union Gospel Mission, has been running 60 days, and in that time 1000 meals and shelters have been given, and work found for over 100 people.
 This IS indeed a very creditable showing for Rev. Holcomb, and only eonvinces us of the praetica- bility Of such an institution. It shows, even on such small amount of money that has been contributed to this work oy our people, what might be done, were it placed upon a self supporting basis. While our people have beed sleeping these cold, winter nights, not lbaing disturbed by their residences Yeing broken into, Rev. Holeomo has laid awake studying, planning, figuring, just how to feed and care for, perhaps, ten or twenty men then in his shelter. Nightly at 10 o'clock the door of the Shelter is locked by the person who stays in side, looking after these men until 6:3O in the morning, rot one of whom is allowed out until morning. Hundreds of dollars have been say ed our people this winter by the opening of this shelter in various ways, and no contribution or words of praise should be withheld from it's worthy leader.

What to Do Until the Doctor rrives.

It is very hard to stand idly by
 and see our dear ones suffer while
 awaiting the arrival of the doctor. An Albany (N. Y.) dairymaa called at drug store there for doctor to come and see his child, then very sick with croup. Not finding the doctor in, he left word for him to come at once on his return. He also bought a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. which he hoped would give rsome relief until the doctor should farriye. In few hours he returned, saving the doctor need not come, as the child was much better. The druggist, Mr. Otto Scholz, says the family has since recommended Cham berlain's Cough Remedy to their neighhors and friends until he has constant demand for it from that part of the country.
