when nineteen years old, and about year
after the birth Of my first child, the glands
the left side of my neck began to swell. -Four of
the places were ianced and became open running
sores; risings came under my left arm, and the
discharge was simply awful. The doctors said
had the worst case of ScrofuIa they had ever
seen. / took iodide of potassium, but this nor
the other drugs given for this disease brought
relief. When the physicians advised me TO have
the glands removed, I decided to try s. s. S. A
few bottles cured me completely; no signs Of
the terrible disease are left.

THREE SUSPECTS
WERE ARRESTED.
Upon Charge of Completely in Rob
berry Here.
WERE CAPTURED at LEEsBURG
Three Hen Supposed TO Have Had 3
Hand in Holding Up q Travelling
Man in Americas Are Brought Here
al Deny The Charge.

The story told IN yesterdays Times
Recorder Of the highway robbery com
mitted at the Central depot the night
before, whereby an old gentleman was
surrounded by thieves and robbed Of
MS money without any interference
whatever, has been the talk of the town
since.
Nothing TO equal IT in boldness ever
occurred here before.
Under the glare of an electric light q
man was robbed by three highwsymen,
despite his resistance, the gang going
Ieisnrely upon their way with 1855 Of
stolen money IN their pockets.
Il is true that the conductor and en-
gineer of the train on which the victim
was a passenger made an effort to catch
the thieves, and even telephoned TO the
barracks for 8 policeman, but no assis-
lance came and in the confusion the
three grafters easily escaped.
But at least one Of them was not TO
enjoy freedom very long.
At Leesburg three suspects were
picked up by the town marshal, and
this trio is now in Jail in Americas
with the charge Of highway robbery
preferred against them.
Warrants were issued yesterday
morning by Justice Graham and the
three men, who gave their names sc
Robert Boyd, Frank Bremen and
Harry Murray, we're jailed upon the
charge stated. Each denied all knowl-
edge Of the crime charged them.
Mr. Sharpe, tbs victim Of the rob-
berry Monday night, is here.
He saw the three men yesterday and
thinks probably one Of them is the fell
low who thrust 8 hand into his pocket
and stole his money-$155.
Mr.. Sharpe could not locate the other
two. It is quite likely that q commit
tel trial will be given them today. In
the meanwhile q search is still being
made for others who were implicated
in the robbery, as q gang had hand in
the affair.

POLICE BOARD AND .
COUNCIL CLASH
Second Request Made By Latter Body
Is Refused.
DRASTIC MEANS Is SUGGESTED
Council Desires Services Of One Po
heeman To Assist Marshal In Col.
leeting Taxes, But Police Board
Again Refuses Request,

That the City Council and the Police
Board are not to dwell together in
peace and harmony is again manifest
10 the refusal Of the latter named body
to grant the demand Of Council for the
use, temporarily, Of one policeman de-
tailed for special duty.
The two bodies are at loggerheads,
and each seems equally determined in
the position already taken.
The Council asks that policeman be
detailed for brief time to assist the
city marshal II the collection Of past
due taxes, as the entire city, practically,
is to be covered in that WY.
Such request was made some time
ago and refused by the Police Board,
which took the position that the police
were elected to patrol the streets And
preserve order and their services could
not be directed otherwise. Council
did not think this reason 8 sufficient
one.
And, more particularly, as in years
past the Police Board mas detailed 8
man at the request Of the council to act
as sanitary inspector for weeks st 6
time, when this service was required.
Being thus refused, the City Coun.
oil adopted another course.
At the meeting on Monday night 81
ordinance was adoped requiring 20
licemeu TO perform any special duty, o.
the nature cited, as might be imposed
by council. The Police Board wal
furnhed copy of this ordinance yes.
terdsy and the former request again
| renewed.
The reply to Council was. as in the
first instance, q refusal to detail q man
for the purpose required.
Council takes the position that its
request is most reasonable. The city
is in debt, and at the same time is dus
large amounts for taxes. There is u,
money available for hiring another
collector, and the services Of 8 police
man was requested to aid the city mar
shall in his work.
/ Now that the Police Board has agar
peremptoriIy refused the req7est it re-
mains to be seen what Council will d.
about it. The Police Board merel,
elects policemen. The Council pays
1 them.

That gang Of grafters is operating
about Amerlcus is evidenced in q sec

which was very similar to the affair at

was robbed by three white men as he
Was debarking from g Seaboard train
below Americas. As the negro reach
cd the car door the thieves rushed him,
and in-the tsngle secured his purse

no Change in Price of Cotton Within
Three Days.

There has scarcely been 8 variation
Of ten points in the cotton market this
week and in consequence the local
market is without special features.
The opening and closing Of the con-
tract market has been practically the
same each day, the closing being about
the so mark for January contracts.
Amerlcus buyers continue to pay u
cents for the best grades of cotton
though not much thst is best" is com
ing IN just now. Many farmers still
hope for higher prices later in the sea-
son, and some Of them will continue
TO hold g part of their cotton to this
end. Yesterdays receipts in Americas
