Miss Eugenia Livingston Tucker, the
talented young woman from Florida,
who has gained SO great a reputation
throughout the South as an impersona-
tor, is an actress by nature and her en-
tire freedom from affectation lends a
distinct charm to her work on the stage.
Her program is varied and embraces all
sorts of Southern folk, white and black,
and she is equally at home when I'M
personating the dignified old Kentucky
General, the faithful old body servant,
Molly, the Milkmaid, the Georgia
Cracker, or the old-fashioned black
NANNY" During the performance
Miss Tucker makes six changes of cos
tune. Her stories abound in pathos,
wit and humor. While the audience is
being amused and entertained the de-
lightful history of a generation now
rapidly passing away is being enacted
on the stage. The Kentucky story is
made more effective by the rendition of
Southern melodies played on the harp
by Miss Kinsinger.

Miss Josie +. kinsinger, who has be-
come such a general favorite as an ex-
quisite performer on the harp, is mu-
sician of unusual talent.
Born and reared in Cincinnati, she
had from her earliest childhood the best
advantages for musical training, having
attended the Cincinnati College of Mu-
sic, the Academy of the Sacred Heart
and Cincinnati Conservatory of Music.
Subsequently she spent four years in
Berlin under the personal instruction of
Herr Wilhelm Posse, Solo Virtuoso to
the Emperor of Germany and teacher of
the harp at the Royal High School of
Music. Miss Kinsinger brings won-
derfully broad tone from the harp, and
her marvellous techniques enable her to
perform skillfully and clearly the most
brilliant passages in difficult selections.
Miss Kinsinger includes in her extensive
repertoire many of the beautiful COM
positions, written especially for the harp
by the worlds greatest masters of this
ancient and noblest of all instruments.

CAPTURED A MURDERER.
Caught Three Years After His Crime
Other Triton News

Triton, Nov. lon Dec. "a, 1899,
Frank Lloyd, colored, killed another ne
gro in Omego, in Worth county. The
two were sitting talking, when a quar-
rel arose, and the other negro ran. Lloyd
pursued him, shooting and killing him
almost instantly.
He was arrested next day and placed
in Isabella Jail, but escaped in Jam
uary, 1900. Last week, after being out
nearly three years, Sheriff Sumner of
Worth county, captured him, and not
being fully acquainted with the partic-
ulars, wrote Mr.. w. H. Oliver. for
them, and the next day the full evil
dence was in his possession.
Mr.. Dan Walker, who lives two miles
north of Triton. has two of the finest
hogs ever raised in this section. Sew
eral gentlemen who have seen them
place their weight from 1900 to 1,400
pounds, for the two. One has not been
able to stand for some time. Mr.. Wal
ker has several more fine hogs, and
says he finds it pays best to keep them
until they grow large. He has fat
tened them principally on Stops hauled
out from Triton. An effort was made
to send the hogs to the State Fair, but
the transportation.
Early in the spring, Messrs. Clyatt,
Timmons, Fulwood and others had a
discussion as to their relative abilities
as farmers, and a race was the result.
To-day Mr.. Clyatt made his report, and
the rest threw up the sponge. UP to
Oct 25, Mr.. Clyatt had ginned and
sold from four acres, 2,565 pounds of
lint cotton, or 641A pounds of lint per
acre The cotton Is still as green in
the field as it was in September. and
Mr.. Clyatt is sure that if he was not
obliged to turn his stock in the field
this week, he could get nearly another
bale, or 5000 pounds of lint. This Is
a remarkable yield. being about S51. 80
per acre, or $205.20 fer the four acres,
besides the seed. which are equally
valuable.
Mr.. James NJ Norman, a well-known
citizen of Colquitt county, was tried
for murder at DeFuniak Springs, Fla,
on Wednesday. and found not guilty.
Mr.. Norman was engaged in the tur-
pentine business in Florida for some
time, and a little more than a year
ago he was arrested and placed in
Jail under charge of killing a negro.
Mr.. Norman said at the time that the
prosecution originated with his BUSH
ness enemies.
Rumor says that Mr.. H. H. Tiff con-
templates starting his single mill at
an early date. 1t will have a capacity
of 100 900 shingles per day.
There appears to be no opposition to
the bill for the establishment of a dis
trict court in Triton. 1t is a measure
badly needed.

This evening the legislators were
given supper at Denmark dining hall
on the campus and tonight, at the

was given in honor of the Daughters

I'm the city of Richmond, Va, dur
ing the closing days of the great strug-
gle between the states, while cannon
roared and brave men fell on either
side, there was born to the Confederate
President a little girl, who was low
ingly called 1.-The Daughter of the Con-
federacy." In her girlhood she was a
ray of sunshine that frightened the
lives of her parents in hours of gloom.
In later years, a queenly young wo-
man, she was the solace of their de-
clining days. Easily and naturally this
matchless daughter of the South be-
came a bright star in the galaxy of
Southern womanhood, beloved by ma
irons who, at home, in hospital and
even on the tented field had given their
energies and prayers to the cause of
their people,; honored by men, whose
deeds of valor had linked their names
forever to Immortality; and held up as
a beautiful life worthy of emulation by
the children to whom in future years
would be committed the solemn duty
of preserving to posterity the deathless
deeds of their soldier fathers.
She sleeps to-day beneath the hal
lowed soil of old Virginia, in the city
of her birth. In many states memorials
have been built by loving hands to per-
petuate her name. To the Georgia di-
vision of the Daughters Of the 'Confed-
eracy has been reserved the honor of
rearing the noblest memorial of ALL a
building that for all time is to afford
to the worthy young daughters of Con-
federate ancestry the blessings of an
education that will fit them for the
work of training the children of the
state who are to hand down untarnish-
ed her glorious traditions and win for
her future of still greater renown.
This is an hour that brings rejoic-
ing to many hearts, that kindles the
fire of worthy ambition within many
breasts, that points the way to lofty
and inspiring deeds, that ushers in for
the struggling young womanhood OF
Georgia brighter and better day
with the passing months, in all its
beauty this stately building will rise
the pride of the daughters of Georgia
whose kind hearts and unceasing eff
forts called it into existence. Long af-
ter the sweet flowers of the SPRING
shall bloom upon our graves as they
dot the hillside or swell from the bosom
of the valley, generation after genera

beneath its roof and thousands will &c

once more the patriotic call to arms,
the tender parting scenes. the clash
of contending armies, the roar Of can

victories of peace-all that made the
record of our gray battalions, one OF
which no people should be ashamed
These echoes. these memories, these

no bitterness. no hatred, they lay
upon our lips no words of disloyalty

of their song is the melody of peace,
the lesson that they bring is the hon-
ness of conservation.
The flag of the Confederacy, with
no stain upon its glorious fold save the
crimson blood of those who defended 1t,
is furled forever. There is no hand
that would give 1t again to the god of
battle, no discordant voice that would
mar the harmony of a reunited people.

the sword upon the wall, the tattered
battle flag upon the broken stan, the

that commemorate OeeQS OF NdlOls the

BRAIN FOOD
IL of Little Benefit Unless 1t Is d.
gested.

Nearly everyone will admit that as
a nation we eat too much meat and
too little vegetab les and the grains.
For business men, office men and
clerks, and in fact everyone engaged
in sedentary or indoor occupations,
grains. milk and vegetables are much
more heathful.
Only men engaged in a severe out
door manual labor can live on a heavy
meat diet and continue in health.
As a general rule, meat once a day
is sufficient for all classes of men, wom-
en- and children, and grains. fruit and
vegetables should constitute the bulk
of food eaten.
But many OF the most nutritious
foods are difficult of digestion and it
is of no use to advise brain workers
to eat largely of grains and vegetables
where the digestion is too weak to as
simulate them properly.
1t is always best to get the best re-
suits from our food that some simple
and harmless digestive should be taken
after meals to assist the relaxed diges-
tive organs, and several years expert
ence have proven Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets to be a very safe, pleasant and
effective digestive and a remedy which
may be taken daily with the best re-
suits.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tia blets can hard
ly be called a patent medicine, as they
do not act on the bowels nor any par
ticular organ but only on the food eat
en-. They supply what weak stomachs
lack, pepsin diastase and by stimulat-
ing the gastric glands increase the nat
ural secretion of hydrochloric acid.
People who make a daily practice of
taking one or two of Stuart's Dyspep-
STA Tablets after each meal are sure
to have perfect digestion which means
perfect health.
There is no danger of formsng an in
furious habit as the tablets contain
absolutely nothing but natural dges-
tives; cocaine, morphine and similar
drugs have no place in a stomach med
icine and Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
are certainly the best known and most
popular of all stomach remedies.
Ask your druggist for a fifty cent
package of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
and after a weeks use note the i'm
provement in health, appetite and ner-
Vous energy.

November Colds Should Not Be Al

tarrh.
Pe-rn-na Cures a Cold Promptly and
Permanently.

81 am glad to recommend Peruna, as
it has done so much for me. l had been
a great sufferer from catarrhal colds
until l was urged to try Peruna, and L
am happy to say that it has entirely
cured me. l shall never be without it
and most cheerfully recommend it to
others who are afflicted as l have
been. Dauter 239 18th
street, Milwaukee, Wis.
Most people think the success of Pc
runa depends upon the use of adver-
tisements. Undoubtedly the advertise
ments help some. But by far the great
est number of people who hear of Pc
runa have their attention called to it
by a friend.
Some one gets cured of chronic ca
tarrh by Peruna. After he is certain
of his cure, he is sure to recommend
1t to his friends. Friend recommends
it to friend and the news spreads from
tongue to tongue.
All the advertisements in the world
could not make Peruna as popular
as 1T is. Peruna cures. That is the
reason people like it. Peruna cures
n very stubborn disease. That is
why everyone recommends it. Pc
runa curss chronic catarrh after all
other remedies fail, which explains
