This statement Is the result Of rather
an interesting drama that was enacted

performers.
About one year ago Mr.. w. U. McKin-
ney leased the Windsor Hotel from Mr..

terday his name appeared on the big
guest book in the hotel office as proprie-
tor.
From u o'clock yesterday, however, it
disappeared from the figure head of the
register and whether 1t will ever appear
again, 1t seems, must be decided in court.
A few weeks ago 1t will be remembered
that there was statement in The Adver-
tiser relative to a disagreement between
Messrs West and Mckinney. A law suit
grew out of the trouble, Mr.. West getting
over the line first. The trouble was or
a purely business nature, eliminating In
the aforesaid drama OF yesterday morn
ing. Just about the hour OF noon an
officer Of the law in the person OF the
sheriff Of Montgomery County walked into

appearance of that gentleman the sherin

Mr.. West all property belonging to that

cents and that he had told Mr.. Mck1n-
new on the 7th of October that ne must

that Yesterday morning he sued out a writ
of ejectment which was served oy inc

opinion the affairs Of the Brewery could
be adjusted so that little money would

All three of the deputies pursued him,
emptying their revolvers as they ran. The
negro still ran. Both the deputies and
the negro were up to their waists in the
mire in the swamp. On account Of his
light clothing and unencumbered limbs
the negro distanced the officers and they
temporarily abandoned the chase

rode swiftly to the convict farm, four

The negro was taken to the Jail, where
his wound was examined 1t was discov-

through his back, leaving the body just
under the navel. Surgeons were called in
and all day yesterday the negro was
worked on. The surgeons stated that
while the negro has a chance to live. the
chance is slim and his death Is expected
at any moment.
Early this morning he rallied and re-
gained consciousness. He talked some to
the night jailer and said he was feeling
much better.

that the disease is a blood disorder,
constitutional malady and not at all
local disease.
To really cure catarrh the system must

internal remedy which acts effectively
upon the blood and liver.
