ed With Assault With Attempt to
Rape.
Augusta. Ca, Feb. 24.-Robert F..
Turk, an express messenger for the
Southern Express Company between
mere and Sandersville was committed
10 Jail this morning on a warrant
charging Turk with an assault with
attempt to rape" The warrant was
taken out before Magistrate B. w.
Wall The magistrate stated to re-
porter to-day that arrangements were
being made to give bond for the ap-
pearance of the defendant at the next
term of the Superior Court, and that 1t
was very probable that the young man
would waive a preliminary eXamina-
lion.
Last night, Turk was arrested by the
police, at the instigation of the brother
of certain young lady of this city,
who moved to Augusta last week whom
Turk had taken buggy-riding last at
ternoon. 1t is also stated that Turk
told the young lady that they would
visit a friend of his and stopped with
her al d house of the demi-monde. The
girl CfldIBeS lHdl lHt ltltl tii CcAIeHCu
her, showing a pistol, but says that
she made such a demonstration to pro-
tect her honor that she secured her re-
lease from the bagnio and restoration
to her home, where she informed her
family of the matter. Her brothers
went out looking for the accused and
the police, learning of their hunt, took
Turk into custody aud instituted a
rigid tigation. the result of which
was the detention of Turk as stated.
Turk and his friends-and he has de-
veloped many of them IN the trouble
he is in, declare that there is some
awful mistake They and he declare
most positively that he is innocent and.
ask suspension of public opinion until
the forthcoming legal investigation
develops all the facts.

WILDCATS IN LoWNDEs.
So Bold That They Appear in Open
Daylight.

Valdosta, Ga. Feb. 24.-It is said
that there are many wild cats in the
western part of this county and they
are doing much damage among pigs,
sheep and other small domestic ami
mails. A negro, at work on the McRec
place, ran upon a wild cat day or so
ago and the animal started to spring
upon him and would have done so had
the negro not lied from the place. In
the same locality the next day, a mon
ster wildcat was seen trotting across
an open held within hundred yards
OF a score OF negroes at work. Col
Gentry and two or three other hunters
are IN that section to-day and reports
are 10 the effect that they are having
splendid sport chasing cats.

IN MEMORIAM.
In Memorium of Our Father,

-~-~0-~0~-~-~-~~~-~--I -I~G-S--~-~----->L--~~~~-~
In Memorium of Our Father,
JOHN A. OLIVER,
Who died Feb. "a, 1901.
But little has been said
OF our departed dead
Since we laid his dead form low;
In the cold marble clay,
In the old fashion way,
To-day, one. year ago.
/
The world never knew him
And the world may never know;
But when wicked are dying
The good ones must go.
Dear Father we miss thee,
God knows how much we do;
And sigh to look again on thy face
For We know there is no one on earth
That will fill our fathers place.
We have a dear, sweet Mother left
And to us she is fond and true;
But she's Mother only Mother,
And not our Father too.
He lived the life of Christian,
And died the death of the same.
1t afforded him much pleasure
To call on Jesus name.
/
In answer to the prayers he made
When bowed in suffering and in pain.
He believing what the Scriptures said
The righteous prayers are not in vain.
And when on the Resurrection Day
To me it would not seem odd
If we an undivided family make
Around the throne'efs God.
And now, oh God! we sympathize
With Sister and with Brother,
But our sympathy is deeper still
For her, our loved and aged Mother.

BAD BLOOD,
BAD COMPLEXION.

The skin is the seat of an almost end.
less variety of diseases. They are known
by various names, but are all due to the
same cause, acid and other poisons IN
the blood that irritate and interfere with
the proper action of the skin.
To have a smooth, soft skin, tree from
all eruptions, the blood must be kept pure
and healthy. The many preparations of
arsenic and potash and the large number
of face powders and lotions generally
used in this class of diseases cover up
for a short time, but cannot remove per-
manently the ugly blotches and the red,
dishguring pimples.
Eternal vigilance IS the SsrF0e
of a beautiful cOnpEsxi0E
when such remedies are relied on.
Mr.. H. I. Shobe 77o4 Lucas Avenue, St Louis,
Mo, says My daughter was afflicted for years
with dishguring eruption on her face. which
resisted all treatment. She was taken to two
celebrated health springs, but received no benz
fit. Many medicines were prescribed, but with
out result. until VIC decided to try S s. s., and by
the time the first bottle was finished the eruption
began to disappear. dozen bottles cured her
completely and left her skin perfectly smooth:
She is now seventeen years old. and not sign of
the embarrassing disease has ever returned"
S. S. S. is a positive, unfailing cure for
the worst forms of skin troubles. 1t is
the greatest of all blood purifiers, and the
only one guaranteed purely vegetable.

PEORIA UNION WAGES
WAR ON FEMALE CLERKS

Here is more trouble for the al
ready overworked saIeslady in the big
stores of Peoria. 1t is trouble
which is difficult to say what the end
ing will be- The Retail Clerks union
has decreed that khe, girls have got
to walk the plank and in Il very short
time the crusadcs will he commenced.
The union will refuse to issue "A union
store card to any store employing
female clerks, and will attempt to en-
list the aid of the local labor societies
in the attempt to drive the girls from
the counter To ihe wash tub.
IT really looks like big proposition
and the clerks union will in all
probability find that it has, in the
words of General jackson. bit off
more than it can chew" In all other
cities in the state tue ladies arc
given the same union privileges and
protection that the men have. and il
will undoubtedly be the beginning of
Il very bitter fight between the union
clerks and the employees.
The proprietor of one of the largest
stores in Peoria said: ''rhc idea of
attempting to force or induce the dry
goods stores to dispense with female
help is absolutely absurd There is
no store in the city that could do so
even Reit wanted To. Ladies are alb
SGflhttsfy sneccssary in our stores and
we will not for a moment consider
any proposition looking to their dis
placement by men. We are not OPP
posed to the clerks union, but this
move which | understand is really
contemplated by them is foolish
child's play and it is to be hoped that
The influential members of the union
will see their mistake before il is too
late
SIS not known exactly when the
movement will be launched. but if il
is to be done it is hoped that clerks
will have the ladies all put off the
force before spring housekeeping has
ended, for there * certainly a great
need Of gigls in domestic lines. OF
course at the princely salaries most
of the female clerks are drawing they
can in the great part take vacation
mt the seaside or i'm the country, but
then they don't want to loaf all the
time.
In the meantime there will prob
ably he great influx of male clerks
into Peoria, and lady shoppers will
shortly be treated to the Partisan
novelty of having male clerks assist
them in trying on street skirts.
hats or. corset covers. It's a great
innovation, and what the result viii
be is awaited, with great interest.
The female clerks have already form
ed several cooking societies and are
putting in their spare time learning
how to, make pies like mother made.
There viii also undoubtedly be
marked rise in the matrimonial mar
ket.

CARE OF THE LAWN:
SHOULD BE PREPARED NOW

The present is the most important
time of year to prepare the lawn. The
surface of the lawn should be care
fully rakcd, SO as to loosen the soil,
yet not so as to tear up the grass
roots. The surface soil should not
be too rich. for the growth of grass
land should not be too rapid. Sow the
seed literally. The great mistake Of
sowing seed for lawns is that too lit
tie seed is used. After the seed is
sown the ground should be rolled.
The best time to SOW seed is before
rain. Frequent moving should be
done, but not so much i'm the very hot
season Of the year. Then after the
fail rains come and before winter a
good top grass should be left, SO as
to protect the grass roots during the
winter months. The moving should
be discontinued in the fall in time to
allow the top grass to grow before
the winter sets in. D'"
Many persons have great difficulty
with terraces. The following plan is
recommended for the treatment of
terraces that have grown rough and
broken. For each square rod of ter
race take pound OF lawn grass
and mix il thoroughly with six cubic
feet of good, dry garden loan. Place
in tub. and add liquid manure dis
titled with about twd-thirds of water.
so as to bring the whole to a con
sistency of mortar. The slope must
be made perfectly smooth, and then
well watered, after which the paste
should be, applied and made as even
and as thin rs possible.
An effort is being made ian various
sections of the city to improve lawns.
This is very desirable, and it is hoped
that every person having lawn will
aid in the general improvement of
the city in this regard.
1t should not he forgotten that the
present is the time to commence the
growth of garden seeds for the gar
den. if it is the intention to raise
plants for the garden from seed.
This, however. can he done out of
doors when the weather is warm
enough, the only disadvantage to this
plan being that il is later in the sea-
son before flowers can be produced
from the plants.
