There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable. For
a great many years doctors pronounced
it local disease, and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing to
cure with local treatment, pronounced
it incurable. Science has proven catarrh
to b. constitutional diseases, and
therefore requires cOnstitUt iOnal treat
ment. Halls Catarrh Cure, manufac-
tured by F. J. Cheney & Co.. Toledo,
Ohio, is the only constitutional cure on
the market. It is taken internally in
doses from 10 drops to teaspoonful.
It acts directly on the blood and mucous
surfaces of the system. They offer one
hundred dollars for any case it fails to
cure. Send for circulars and testimo-
mails. Address,

A movement to establish free rural
mail delivery route from Lneville has
been started among the enterprising
farmers of the neighborhood east of
town. A petition to the postoftice de-
partment is in circulation and is being
signed by all interested In the establish
ment of the route and assurances have
been received from Col. Hepburn, our
Representative in Congress, that he will
present the petition and recommend it's
establishment. The proposed route
starts from Linevlle east on the state
road to Henry Jeferson's place, thence
northeast via Dyas Neill's, to John
Funnell's, thence north to the vicinity
of Clinton Center returning via George
Barker's, Will Hughes, j. r. and Geo.
Rockhold's to Lineyille, but if establish.
ed the route may be changed or modi-
fed. Rural free mail delivery was
started as an experiment by the postof.
fee department, but has been success
aud the pressure for the establishment
of routes has been so great that the
appropriations for that purpose have
been exhausted. 1t is expected, how.
ever. that the present Congress will
make additional appropriations and
! that rural free delivery will become a
permanent feature Of our postal system.

ing Joe Jacobs, at Galva. Before the
war-some years, the exact date is not
at hand, Joe Jacobs shot DR.. Lucas.
while the latter was advancing to his
Jacobs house, pistol in hand, through
the yard in front. This was about two
miles east of Hopeville. DR.. Lucas fell
dead, and of course Jacobs arrest fol.
lowed. He was convicted, sentenced
for murder in the first degree, to twenty.
one years in the penitentiary, and was
serving his sentence when the war
broke out. Gov. kirkwood pardoned
him on condition of his enlisting, and
he fought through the war. He is now
eighty-two years old, a hard, vile old
man, yet. He told Mr.. Cane he'd shot
another man within the past two years,
and after being eleven months in the
penitentiary had got out-he said
through the influence of his money. He
boasted of having great deal of money,
which he said he kept buried, and no.
body knew where it was but himself.
He has had four wives, two having been
divorced. Probably most of those who
remember the old crime would have
supposed him dead long years ago. Few
