KILLED AT HIS DOOR.
MYSTERIOUS MURDER OF HUGH
WILLIAMS, A NEGRO.
One shot Fired AZ He Reached Cabin
on Lower WetumpkA Road.
Frank Goss Charged
With Crime.

Hugh williams, a negro baker. was
mysteriously killed In front of his own
house in Chariestown, a negro suburb Of
Montgomery, at an early hour Sunday
morning, and Frank Goss. another ne
gro. is in the Montgomery county jail
charged with his murder.
Williams was employed at down.
town bakery, but lived In the negro SUI
burb. on the Lower Wetumpka road
known as Charlestown. 1t was his Gus
tom to walk home at late hour each
night through an unlighted part Of the
city.
Last week williams slept In town. but
decided to walk home Saturday night and
Pspend Sunday at his home. The negro
reached his cabin shortly after IL o'clock.
He walked to the door Of the house and
knocked. His wife answered, asking. rs
that you, Hughr' He answered her and
according to the statement Of the woman,
she went for a light. Then she heard a
pistol shot. Rushing to the door. she
saw her husband lying near the doorstep.
He had a bullet wound In the right breast.
The negro made an effort to speak but
was too weak. He died In a few seconds
A message was at once sent to police
headquarters and Police Captain Taylor
and Mounted Patrolmen Smith and Ora
ham, rode to the scene of the tragedy.
A daughter OF the ueau man, rdcndci
Ray, was arrested and brought to Mont
gomery on suspicion, 1t being believed
that she knew important facts bearing on
the case. She was released Sunday. after
being closely questioned.
The position of the dead negro was
infinitely examined. A s2-caiibre revolver
was found under his body. One chamber
WIS empty, but no bullet had passed
through it, as the barrel of the pistol
was not powder-stained. and there was
no empty shell in the chamber.
Sunday Coroner w. II. Tice held an In
quest upon the body of Williams and re-
turned a verdict of "feloniously murf
dered."
Shortly after the inquest Sunday MORN
ing Deputy Sheriffs s. 8. Belser and B. c.
Young arrested Frank Goss, negro. on
a warrant sworn out before Justice B. III.
Screws. The deputies say they have not
completed the case, but are positive they
have the right man. The deputies say
that Goss and Williams had not been on
friendly terms for some time, and the
tracks from the doorsteps of the dead man
correspond to a shoe of Goss's they have
in their possession.

An Error Corrected.

In Sunday mornings Advertiser there
appeared black type local advertisement
of Mr.. J. M. McCool, the well-known Mon
roe Street grocer. In which the finest
patent flour, the best Of the best. was
advertised for $225 per barrel. This was a
typographical error, made in the type
setting department of The Advertiser. for
which Mr.. McCool was in no way to
blame. The copy for his advertisement
plainly read S4.25 per barrel, instead of
1925 per barrel. The Advertiser makes
this correction willingly. and trusts that
Mr.. McCooI will not be inconvenienced by
Its error. Mr.. McCool is a good adver-
tiser: he advertises big bargains in gro
ceries, and when he makes price on an
article the public can depend on 1t that
they will get good value for their money.

A WORD TO THE GREAT ARMY
OF SUMMER TOILERS.
II You are Not as Robust, Vig-
orous and Happy as Others
in the r1onth of August
.Paine's Celery
Compound
Will Give You Health, Full
Energy and Happiness.

Many men toiling In offices, stores, and
workshops during this hot summer
weather. and women weighted with the
work and cares of home are critically
near the breaking down point. The symp-
toms of coming sickness and disease are
manifested in sleeplessness nervousness
tired feelings. languidness, irritability,
failing appetite, and poor blood circula-
ton.
Paine's Celery Compound is a precious
boon to the ailing, sick, and rundown in
this August weather. A bottle or two
used at once will quickly bestow the
needed strength to battle against the
weakening and enervating effects OF the
oppressive heat, and will enable men and
women to go through the necessary rou-
tine of daily toll with heart, soul, and
energy. Paine's Celery Compound is
specially distinguished for its ability to
build up rundown systems in hot weather.
Mr.. George w. Demarest. of 12s West
S7th Street, New York. says:

rious. 1 suffered SO intensely with severe
pains in my back and kidneys that l was

Vancouver at midnight last night

damage was done, especially to small
shipping, the total loss being esti-
mated at about 500, 900. The
steamer Aorangi, coming in from
Australia, lay in English bay all
night and got her anchor foul of the
Canadian Pacific cable to Victoria.

cable station was wrecked by the

bark Elizabeth Nicholson dragged
her anchor across the harbor and
went broadside against the Hastings
mill wharf. She broke the copper
sheathing over her bows, but no holes
were stove in her. The bow OF the
steamer Active was carried onto the
wharf and the vessel considerably
damaged. Fifteen small steamers
went adrift and were more or less
damaged.

water runs into marble basin, they
let the water run till servant shuts 1t

laid the doll on the lady's lap. She
was horrifed. and ordered the child to
take II away.

and no servant was near, and the lady
would be defiled by touching doll that
had been brought from abroad. the only
thing she could think OF was to jump
up and let the doll fall. 1t broke in
