Sure Cure for Dyspepsia.
From the Philadelphia Record.

4 TOM the f-Hlldue1pilld IleCuTu.
Standing in front of a Locust street
stable yesterday afternoon was a man
in overalls. pulling bales of hay up
into the loft with the use of rope
and pulley. He looked the picture Of
health, and the exertion was as moth
ing to him. Presently along came an
other man. He was fat and pudgy-
looking and his skin had an unhealthy
color. His general appearance botok-
ened the overfed club man. He was
carefully groomed and was evidently
a man of leisure. He stood for perhaps
a minute watching the other man at
work and then he said: Would you
mind letting me take your place for
a while? / am troubled with indiges-
ton and have been suffering all day.
l think that would do me good
The stableman's eyes seemed to pop
out of his head. Sure he said, ''sure."
The pudgy dyspeptic carefully removed
his gloves and grasped the rope. 1t
was hard work and it made him very
red in the face, but he finally landed
the bale where another man in the loft
could take it in. Then he tried another,
and kept it up for about ten minutes.
When he relinquished the rope to the
stableman he slipped coin into the
latter's hand, saying: Thank you, very
much. That has done be more GO ID
than all the medicine in the verdi"
AS he disappeared around the corner
the laborer was heard to mutter,
"Well, I'll be id" That was as near
as his vocabulary could come to doing
Justice to the occasion.

An English Monarch Always POpu-
lar with His Subjects.
From the london Truth.

Hundreds of writer's and speakers
have asserted during the last six
months that when the late Queen as
cended the throne in 1887 the Crown
had fallen into contempt owing to the
extreme unpopularity of George w.
and William w. This is all rubbish
and nonsense. George w. ought. very
likely, to have been generally detest-
ed. but, as a matter of fact, he was
always received everywhere with I'M
bounded enthusiasm, and the frantic
cheers of London and Brighton were
also heard at Dublin in 1921, and at
Edinburgh in 1922. There never was
a more popular monarch, to Judge
from the acclamations of his subjects
whenever he condescended to appear
in public. Read the account In Van
ity Fair" of King Georges state visit
to the opera, in which Thackeray de-
scribes the wild ecstasies of the vast
audience, and of the crowds outside
the theater, with mingled derision and
disgust. William ". was also a great
public favorite. and with considerably
more reason. The fact is that IL is
only posterity which concerns itself
with the faults in a sovereign's char
acter. of which nothing whatever is
heard while he is alive.

TOLD A TALE OF KIDNAPPING.
Young Girl Says Tramps Stole Her
Three Companions.
From the New York Sun.

From the New York Sun.
Wilkesbarre, Pa, Aug. 2S.-The po-
lice have been engaged since early
morning in a search through the dense
woods on the west shore of the river
for a girl and two boys who were at
tackled last night by tramps and ap-
parently abducted. No trace of them
has yet been found. Another girl, Ha-
eel Martin, escaped, bruised and with
her clothes torn, after a vigorous fight
for liberty and is now being cared for
by the police. The missing three are
Hazels sister Lena, aged IA; Thomas
earle, aged 16, and Rem Drake, aged
H.
Hazel Martin ran shrieking into the
house of A. E. Carr, a gardener near
Dorranceton, last night about $3.50 and
fell to the floor in Mysteries. She
was overcome with fright and there
were black ana blue marks on her
arms. neck and face. Her dress had
been torn and her hair was dishevelled.
1t was some time before she could tell
her story. She said thatkwith her sis
ter and the two boys she left Moosic
yesterday afternoon to drive to her
aunt's home in @his city. They had
a light wagon and one horse.
At nightfall they were coming down
the west sue anu ulO not KNOW quite
where they were, the woods being very
thick along the river. About 8 o'clock
they came upon two women in the
road and asked the way to this city.
The women told them and then talked
for some time and induced them to
get out of the wagon, while the horse
had a rest and nibbled some grass at
the roadside.
1t was bright with a full moon and
they could see clearly. They had not
talked with the women more than a
few minutes when several tramps
dashed out of the woods and seized
them. Hazel Martin said that two men
grabbed her and tried to throw her
to the ground. She fought desperately
and shrieked for help. Finally she
managed to break away from them
and sped through the woods, the two
The Savannah morning news., 1901-09-01

men after her. She had no idea how
far she ran, so frightened was she, but
she came upon field, crawled under a
fence, the tramps still in pursuit, and.
seeing the lights of the house, ran for
it, screaming for help as the tramps
| gained on her.
The screams and nearness of the
house evidently frightened the men,
for they stopped the pursuit and the
girl staggered into the house. She
said that she had seen her sister in
the clutches of two or three men,
struggling with them and screaming.
and that suddenly the screams had
stopped as if the girl had been choked
The boys had run away and one clam
| bered into the wagon, while the other
ran into the woods, tramps going after
both. She thinks the boy in the car
riage was caught before he could whip
up the horse.
When her story was told, Carr and
Harry Ide, a neighbor, arming them
selves, went back to the woods and
tried to find the tramps, but although
they kept up the search until o'clock
this morning, they were unsuccessful.
At daybreak they brought the girl to
this city and gave her in charge OF
Matron Pertels of the United Chart
ties, and the police were notified.
The girl was too weak and hysteri-
cal to aid them in their search. but
described the place as well as she
could, and Chief of Police Jones, Agent
Michael Haeffy of the United Charl
ties and several policemen secured the
woods for hours. They arrested sew
eral tramps on suspicion, but the girl
was unable to identify them.
The police found one tramp who ad
mitted seeing a gang of tramps with
a young girl late last night near the
scene of the assault. but, he had not
seen the boys. 1t is believed by the
police that the tramps have moved
either up or down the river and are
keeping the boys and the girl prison
ers until they decide to abandon the
girl The women are believed to be two
notorious women tramDs whom the
police know.
The search is being continued, and
the police in all the towns along the
river have been notified.
The girls are the daughters of Mrs.
Maria Brown. who was twice mar
ried and who is the wife of a farmer
living near Moosic. The boys are
sons of farmers from the same place.
The police have sent word to them
of the abduction. but have not yet
received any answer. Seven tramps
were arrested tonight but Hazel Mar
tin has not been able to identify any
of them.

TO be- that what they do on Sunday is
a violation of the law. l mention the
Oglethorpe Club particularly because
this seems to be the only one which
has not closed its bar on Sunday. If
the dominant sentiment in a club, or
in any other organization, is on the
side of violation of the law, il would
seem that the men in it, who claim
to be aw-abiding would seriously con-
slider the question as to whether a
law-abiding man can consistently sus-
tain by his membership, name and
dues, an organization which occupies
before the community this indefensi-
bic attitude. Ought a law-abiding
man to be a member of a law-break-
ing organization?
LawlessnesS is abroad in the land
The hold of the courts on the public
conscience and respect is becoming
more and more slight. Outside of
those due to 1.-The unspeakable crime"
lynchings have become alarmingly
common, particularly in our Southern
country. Courts are often set at def
ance and the law put to open shame"
The time has surely come when all
good citizens must stand for the law
and the courts. must set a good eX-
ample, must surrender their personal
views, and, if need be, avoid the very
appearance of evil"

Mr.. Wilson. For his arduous and cx-
acting services much unselfishness and
public spirit have been necessary.
Against great discouragements he has
fought good fight" and has done
great good in the community. For
much less important work I have

our public prints, whose editorial col
umns, / submit, cannot be better en-
ployed than in the hearty Endorsement

PICKED UP SMALL TREASURE

PICKED UP SMALL TREASURE.
Mr.. Sam Wiley last Saturday, while
hunting on the farm he rents on the
Blue Ridge Mountains, near Mt. Airy,
10 this country, picked up an old rotten
piece of oil cloth, which bid small sized
treasure. Neatly folded In this piece
of oil cloth were three United States
treasury notes, sgRregatlDg $2OO-one
500 note and two $50 Dotes. The notes
are dated back in the 800, and are pay
able three years after date, compound
semi.sDnuslly interest. The 500 note,
which has upon 1t the picture of WASH
inRton delivering his address to the
Senate, bears the date OF May 15, 1865,
aud number 65, 1893 B. o. back side es.
Inmates OF interest and principal the
note amounts to at end Of certain pc
RODS of time up to three years-$ll9.40
being given as the amount OF Interest
and principal at the end OF three years.
Toe other notes are dated December To-.
1864. and October 10, 1864, and number
ed l02, ,259 and 1876 III A. They bear
compounded semi-annual interest and
are payable three years after date, esch
being worth at the end OF that time

of the notes were rotted away and evil
denced tha, they had been lying in the
