BROOKS MAINTAINS
HIS INNOCENCE.
Americas Negro to Swing Early In
MAY.
YET DECLARES HIS INNOCENCE.
Brooks Almost Overcome When SEN
tencs of Death Was Pronounced
May 10th, Date of Execution, But he
Will Not Be Hung Then.

Henry Brooks, the Amerlcus negro
convicted in Savannah of the murder
of Police Officer Fender, will pay the
penalty of death on the galIows on
May 10th. The execution will be pri-
vate, and will take place sometime be-
tween the hours of 10 a. m. and p. m.
But 1T is not believed that Brooks
will be hanged so soon.
Brooks attorneys have already given
notice of motion for new trial and
this, with the numerous other delays
incident in such cases, will postpone
the date of doom.
When Brooks was ordered to stand
up to receive the death sentence he was
terribly frightened. He was in state
OF complete collapse, and it was only
with great effort he stood up while the
judge read the sentence which consign-
ed him to the gallows.
Brooks was first asked if he had any
statement to make.
eyes your honor" answered the
prisoner, in muffled and faltering
tones, scarcely to be distinguished
even in the hush that filled the court
room; 81 am not guilty of killing Po-
liceman Fender; I am innocent of this
charge"
1t is not likely or even possible that
the death sentence will be carried out
on the day fixed, Counsel for the
prisoner have already given notice of
to move the court to grant a
new trial, and the formal motion will
be tried in few days.
Even if Judge FallIgant override the
motion, it will have to be carried to
the Supreme Court, and the approval
ofthe defendants brief of evidence will
act as supersedeas and stay the exc
sution. Brooks has lease of life of
lwo or three months at least.

1t is the one spring remedy sought
after and highly esteemed by intelli-

out the land.
Paine's celery compound has created
its own constituency.
Men and women who have never ia
ken a spoonful of any sarsaparilla or
patent medicine of any sort, nor al
lowed them to enter their homes, not
only use Palne's celery compound
when themselves sick, but persuade
their families to do the same.
And yet when the history of this
wonderful remedy is studied it IS easy
to understand why Paine's celery COM

public.

The sacred Bone.

The bone luz, or the resurrection
bone" is at the lower extremity of the
spinal column. The Jewish rabbis
taught that 1t was incorruptible. and
from 1t, as from a seed, the human
body would spring at the resurrection
There is Jewish tradition that the
Emperor Hadrian questioned n rabbi
as TO the existence OF this bone and
was convinced by the production of
one by the Jewish teacher. Various
attempts were made to destroy 1t. It
was cast into furnace and came forth
unconsumed; it was stepped In boiling
water, but remained unsoftened; It was
smitten with n hammer, and the ham
mer was broken. Some trace of the
former reverence for the bone is found
In tho modern name.

Health and Beauty.

A poor complexion is usually the re-
suit of torpid liver or irregular ac-
tion of the bowels. Unless natures
refuse is carried off it will surely
cause impure blood. Pimples. boils
and other eruptions follow. This is
natures method of throwing off the
poisons which the bowels failed to re
move. DeWitt's Little Early Risers are
worlds famous for remedying this con
dition. They stimulate the liver and
promote regular and healthy action
of the bowels but never cause gripping
