FRIENDS EXPERIENCE HIS PROFIT.
Severe Case of La Grippe Left Mr. Duncan Ross with Weak Back. SwampRoots Virtues Sue
 cessfuly Tested

MT. Duncan Ross. proprietor of Ross's Barber Shop, under the Exchange Hotel. and one of the best and most widely known members of the tonsorial craft in Montgomery had a severe spell of la grip about six or eight weeks ago. which left him with a very weak back. from which he suffered constant pain. Friends told him of the wonderful curative prop critics possessed by Swamp-Root, and he reluctantly gave it a trial. The first two bottles relieved him entirely and he is today in good health. In speaking of the matter to a reporter of The Advertiser few days ago. he told the following interesting story of his case:
 About six weeks ago I contracted a severe case of la grip, which left me with a weak back. which not only gave me constant pain and annoyance. but prevented me from attending to my du ties as proprietor of Ross's Barber Shop Particularly was my back troublesome on Saturdays, when have to remain at the barber shop from early in the morning until midnight. For the past four or five weeks I have been unable to remain on duty at night. and. in consequence. not only lost considerable business. but had to leave my shop in charge of an assist ant.

 s'N HEARING,
Court Room Thronged With Negroes to, Hear Evidence in Sensational Case-All Evidence Not.tn
 on Ad3outnmsnt-

John Henry Lsoveless, the IS-year-olt negro who. has been in jail for the pas month. on the charge of murder for thu shooting <of Virgil Hamilton. the negrt pTasterer,, was arraigned yesterday morn ing before Justice B. H. Screws for { preliminary hearing. The entire day wls occupied In the taking of the testi nony of the witnesses in the case. Al of tho thirty witnesses had not beer heard when the Justice,s Court adjourned for the night. ga .,
 The hearing was in the City Court room. which was filled to its limit with negroes during the trial No murder case ih.. many years has aroused the same interest among the negroes as did the Killing of Hamilton in a street duel by Lpveless. Both negroes were prominent among their people. Loveless Is the son o1yH. A. Loveless the negro undertaken, wfo b among the richest members of his race in Alabama
 It developed yesterday in the evidence tlat Lpveless and Hamilton had guar. ral Thursday before the killing on Fri day night. The trouble was over the Carson girls. daughters of H. A. Carson the well-known politician of -Ldwndes County. who are in Montgomery attend iEg school. Witnesses swore that Hamil- ton had approached Loveless, telling him that he understood that he Uoveless) was going to do him up because he had been walking with the Carson, girls. Loveless the witnesses testified. said that he made no such remark. After some heated words they separated without coming tc blows. One of the witnesses swore that Hamilton pulled a pistol. while others denied that he had pistol.
 Perhaps the most damaging evidence against Loveless was the statement by other witnesses that they heard a woman cry just before the shooting on Jackson Street: John Henry. don't shoot"
 There were three eye witnesses, Roberts and Alice Carson and Eliza McCord. tht latter being Loveless's aunt. Their state ment as to the shooting agreed. They swore that as they came out of the gatt from Fagin's where the dance was helt on the night of the shooting they found Virgil Hamilton waiting for them. H' said to Loveless: 'I heard that you satt that you were going to fire me up. Dit you say it?, The witness testified tha Loveless denied saying 1t and>Hamiltor said Well I am going to fire, you up. With that he circled about Lovelesi about 10 feet away and pulled pistol They swore that he fired two shots befor' Loveless fired any. They further swor' that Loyeless only fired one shot, thu one that killed Hamilton.
 When court adjourned only one or tw' witnesses remained to give evidence. Tn trial of the case. will be resumed thi morning.

Il read in The Advertiser several weeks ago testimonial from my fellow tonso- rial artist. MT. C.. H. Krueger, in which he spoke of having been cured of sim liar trouble by Swamp-Root. I naturally concluded that if it cured Mr. Krueger, who was similarly affected to myself. 1t would do as much for me. This fact, coupled with the importunities of my friends; persuaded me to try Swamp Root. I purchased a bottle and before 1t was consumed. began to feel relief I have just completed the second bottle and feel much better. My back is strong CT and am able to attend to the regular routine of my business, remaining just as long as necessary. and I will continue to take Swamp-Root until at least six bottles have been consumed.
 "I think the trouble in my back was due to a disordered kidney and liver, and I know that Swamp-Ro will put them in thorough condition. hence my willing ness to continue taking it.. believe Swamp Root is a great medicine. that it possesses great curative properties, and deserves all the good that can be said of it.

My attention was attracted to an advertisement in The Advertiser of Swamp-Root. which con- tained picture of man with his hand on his side. bending ovef in agony with pains in his back. I read the advertise ment carefully, and the symptoms of his case were almost identical with those in mine. I lost no time in going to the near est drug store and buying a bottle of Swamp Root. which took strictly in ac- cordance with the printed directions. At the end of a week I suffered less than for weeks previously. and two week. s constant use of Swamp-Ro found me greatly improved; I continued to take Swamp Root until six bottles had been consumed. and I felt as strong and as free from pain as | did when hen ony't,ngg yoT,ng was serious when began taking the great bladder and kidney medicine. and my complete restoration to health con- , vinced me that 1t will do all and more than is claimed for it.

Mir. H. s. Crawford, who recently moved to Montgomery from Cincinnati. and who expects to make Montgomery his home. tells an interesting story about his complete restoration to health. after weeks of suffering from kidney and blad- der trouble, from the use of Dr. kimer's famous remedy. Swamp Root. A cure was effected in MT. Crawford's case by Swamp Root, after eminent physicians in Cincinnati and Montgomery had made dismal failures in their efforts to relieve him. Naturally. he is an enthusiast on the subject of the great remedy, and ex- presses his endorsement of 1t in most emphatic way.
 To reporter of The Advertisers Mir Crawford said:
