Committed Some Crime In Bir-

Was Wanted for That.

Tuscumbia, April 9.-(Special.) -Another
death is added to the record of the des-
perate negro, Will Reynolds. William
Gassaway died yesterday afternoon at
o'clock thirty minutes before the re-
mains of his brother, Sheriff Charles Gas
saway, We're to be inferred. This makes
total of six deaths out of nine wounded.
Mr.. Payne, one of the wounded men, is
resting easy, but the wound is more Sc
rious than anyone thought the ball hav-
ing passed through his left lung. Robert
Patterson and Jim Finney are not in any
danger, their wounds being flesh wounds.
The people oil this city are just recov-
ering from the shock and as they awake
to full realization of the terrible work
of the desperate every one is bowed
with sorrow.
This has been a week of unerals. On
Monday morning the remains of P. A.
Prout were laid to rest in lakewood
Cemetery. Yesterday (Tuesday) the re-
mains of Jesse Davis and Sheriff Gassa-
way were Inferred. All business houses

did these brave men die? Because they
were upholding the law and protecting
the beautiful Southland's home. And to
show that the white man is the master
in the South" The Rev. Mr. Stoves Is
being congratulated on all sides for the
fearless and beautiful sermons
No fear of further trouble exists now.
Committed Crime In Birmingham.
Will Reynolds. the negro desperate,
came here from Birmingham about
week or ten days ago. 1t is thought by
many that he had committed some crime
in or around Birmingham. and fearing
that the officers were after him for the
offense he sold his life dearly. Saturday
last the negro bought 200 cartridges ana
went out a short distance from town ana
practiced firing at a target. Saturday
night he evidently planned the manner
In which he would defend himself. Not
better location could be found than that
selected by the negro. The house in which
he took refuge was situated in bottom.
The cellar underneath had small windows
commanding view of every approach.
Through these his deadly fire was poured
into the posse.
Candidates for Sheriff.
Already numerous candidates have an
nounced for the sheriffs office. This is
brought about by the fact that court is in
session, and is no disrespect to the men,

mittee has been called to meet tomorrow
(Thursday) at 10 o'clock to take some ac-
ton towards securing the best man for
the place.

Tribute to Joe Wheeler.
when four years ago this nation was
compelled to face a foreign foe, the COM
pleteness of the reunion became instantly
and strikingly evident. The war was not
one which called for the exercise of more
than an insignificant fraction of our
strength, and the strain put upon us was
slight, indeed, compared with the results.
But 1t was a satisfactory thing to see the
way in which the sons Of the soldier of
the Union and the sons of the soldier of
the Confederacy leaped eagerly forward.
emulous to show in brotherly rivalry the
qualities which had won renown for their
fathers. 1t was my good fortune to serve
under an ex-Confederate general, gallant
old Joe Wheeler, who commanded the
cavalry division at Santiago.
Gen. Luke Wright.
"a few months ago owing to the
enforced absence of the Governor of
the Philippines, 1t became necessary to
nominate a vice-governor to take his
place-one of the most important places
in our government at this time 1 nomi-
mated as vice-governor an ex-Confederate,
General Luke Wright, of Tennessee 1t
is, therefore, an ex-Confederate who now
stands as the exponent of this govern
ment in the great group of islands in the
Eastern seas over which the American
flag floats. General Wright has taken a
leading part in the work of steadily
bringing order and peace out of the
bloody chaos in which we found the ISL
ands
IF ever the need comes In the future,
the past has made abundantly evident
the fact that from this time on North

for the flag of our common country.
The Republic of Cuba.
You have made a particular effort
in your exhibition to get into touch with
the West Indies. This is wise. Inc
events of the last four years have SHOWN
us that the West Indies and the 1sthmus
In the future occupy a far larger place In
our national policy than in the past.
This is proved by the negotiations Ior
the purchase of the Danish Islands, the
ACQUISITION of Porto Rico the prepara-
finally by the changed relations which
these years have produced between us ana
Cuba
"As a nation we have an especial right
to take honest pride in what we nave
done for Cuba Our critics abroad ana
at home have insisted that we never IN
tended TO leave the island but on the 2Otn

public, and we turn over to the island

1no WOuleu are all UhlklnB hDOuC re-
runa. OF course they are. Why should
they not? Peruna is the remedy that
cured them. If they have cold, Pc
runa cures them. They found that out
by experience.
If they are hoarse or have cough,
they find Peruna an unfailing remedy.
Weak lungs, and even the first stages of
consumption, Peruna promptly restores,
and then there are host of women
who have a slight arrangement of the
stomach and digestive organs. All these
arrangements are of catarrhal nature.
Peruna comes to the rescue at once. A
very short course of Peruna is sufficient
to put the stomach right and to make
the assimilation of the food perfect.
But this is not all. This does not ex-
actly explain why the women especially
are talking about Peruna. Men, the
same as women, have found Peruna USE
full in the above mentioned ailments.
The reason that Peruna is such a Especial
fayorite with women is something more
than all this.
Women are subject to pelvic catarrh.
This condition has been called all sorts
of names and is often referred to under
the general phase, female diseases.
Peruna cures these cases. Peruna cures
them because it cures catarrh wherever
located. The nature of most of these
ailments Is catarrhal.
Catarrh is liable to attack any organ
of the body. 1t Is especially liable to
attack one or more organs of the female
