FOR BRONCHITIS

The microscopic examination of any case of bronchitis will invariably reveal the presence of swarms of venomous mi- crobes in the membranous Things of the bronchial tubes as the cause of the dis ease and of all it's distressing symptoms. The feverish soreness prevailing all the chest; the burning pain directly beneath the breast-bone; the shooting pains in the direction of the shoulder blade in the sides and around the heart; the sense of severe compression and of tightness about the lungs; the incessant torture of tickling in the throat; the dry, hacking nervous, irritating cough alternating with excessive expectoration-all these earlier symptoms, together with those of the lat ter and final stages. the hemorrhages the fiutering heart, the facilitating night sweats and evening levers, ghastly ema- citation and pale consumption at last. are all seen under the microscope to be but varying phenomena of sickness, suffering, and slow, progressive failure and decay caused by the focking of the bronchial tubes and air-passages with the deadly bronchial microbes. Radam's Microbe Killer administered for brief or lengthy periods. according to the chronic nature and the severity of the disease, charges the nembranous Things of. the bronchial tubes and air-passages with principle that neutralizes the infiaming and con- suming microbes and disinfects the sys- tenn against their poisons.

Johnson's brigade of General For rests division in the civil war, were hand eomety entertained by Mrs. Kate John- son, widow of the gallant Colonel William A.

Johnson. U. c. ", present, and the occa- sion was one which will live long in the hearts of the veterans whose ranks are rapidly thinning. and nearly all of whom In a few years more will have crossed over into the Beyond.
 Mrs. Johnson was assisted in doing the honors of her home by her three charming daughters. Misses Ella and Kate, and Mrs. Minnie Can't, and several members of the local chapter Daughters of Confederacy. of which Mrs. Johnson is President. The large and beautiful lawn leading up to Mrs. Johnson's typical Southern home, was the scene of the days pleasures. Here all the comforts and luxuries of which mind can conceive, weer at the dis posal of the grizzly veterans, some with out leg, some without an arm, and oth- CTS decrepid and almost dependent, yet from whose eyes flashed the thoughts of the long ago, and again filled with tears when the name of their gallant command CT, now sleeping the long sleep, was men, tioned in loving terms. There were prob ably sixty veterans present, the address of welcome being delivered by John John- son, a son of the deceased colonel which was very brilliant effort. Congressman William Richardson responded in his usu ally characteristic and eloquent manner, these being followed by other speakers, including Major J. R. Grove of Sheffield, c. P. Hammerly of Iuka, Captain A. A. McGregor of Town Creek. and Judge Chit | wood and Colonel J. N. Thompson of this | city. The exercises were concluded with a good, old-fashioned barbecue, consist ing of everything palatable and delecta- ble, the veterans being served by a CO., | terie of waitresses selected from the chap
 tr of Daughters of Confederacy of Tus-
 cumbia.
 It was an event of intense pleasure to
 all present, particularly the surviving
 members of the 4th Alabama and mem- | bers of Camp W. A. Johnson of this city, and the reunion with Its softening and
 mellowing influences will remain bright spot forever In their minds and hearts. Mrs Johnson was lavished with congrat- ulations and words of love and praise. | A splendid rain the first since the first week in August, fell throughout this inn mediate section yesterday. After the rain the temperature began to fall and at | o'clock this morning it was down to 50 do0reaa

 For quite a while after the operation and after the process of feeding him in this manner began he improved steadily gaining in weight and strength and at- tending to his business as usual. A change for the worse set in a few weeks
 ago and he died yesterday. Several phy- sicians were extremely anxious to have a post-mortem examination as they claim
 there Is only one other case on record of
 similar nature, but this the family
 declined to permit. MT. Jones was about
 fifty years a native of this county and
 stood high. He leaves wife and several
 children.
 Jim Jones was arrested here and car- ried back to Gilmer Upshaw County, Texas by the sheriff of that county, where he is accused of decoying a four | teen-year-old white girl and keeping her for immoral purposes. The States side of it as told by the sheriff here makes a
 horrible tale of mans brutality to help less idiot.
 The water famine has become quite serious proposition here. The Sloss- | Sheffield mines have been forced to shut down two of their washers and the Shef- | field Company one. These three washers out throw a good many men out of em- | pioyment.

 Fall.
 Athens, Sept. 1S-(Special)-A heavy frost fell in this section last night, the heaviest in the memory of the oldest citi- zen for this season of the year, and it has been many years since frost fell this early in this vicinity.

 The announcement was made today of the following committees in connection with the Carnegie Library Building:
 Building Committed. E. Jeffries, Ernest Lamar. R. H. Mabry, R. E. Hard away. Herman Eliasberg and Joseph M. Baker.
 Ladies' Auxiliary Building Committee Mrs. c. W. Hooper. Mrs. Joseph c. Converse. Mrs. Law Lamar. Mrs. B. H. Craig and Mrs. Frederic Watson. To these will be entrusted the securing of plans and specifications. and the let ting of the contract for the building. which Is to occupy the lot corner of Lau- derdale and Selma Streets. and which Is to be built with the $10.000 donated by Mir. Carnegie for that purpose. At meeting of the Mems Building Commit tee, held this afternoon, an advertiser sment was ordered calling for a submission of plans.
 The idea of the committee seems to put up a unique and attractive building rath- CT than an extensive one. The commit tee, of course. expects to get all the room possible for its money, but it wants a place that will attract in preference to special hall and reading rooms. The idea seems to lean to a building one and half stories high made as beautiful of design and architecture as can be con ceived and executed for the amount of MT. Carnegie's donation.

OBSERVAT
Billy IN MISCHIEF

The editor of the Eureka Sem
final has the "jimmies. bonanza.
'Tis pity that the old custom of
editorial mud singing has been re-
vived by our friend Billy Booth of
the Bonanza. For the past couple of
years the press of Nevada have lwelt
together in peace and amity. The
writer recalls a no distant time when
"game-legged freak" and "spectacled
giraffe from California" were two of
the mildest epithets that were hurled
up and down an alley between two
certain Nevada print shops. Rotten
Vardy," Lying Sam Davis" and
'Seedy Van Duzer" were three other
appelations used in editorial columns.
There were more and worse, but the
writer's memory is becoming defect
i've. But in the two years past the
custom has become nearly obsolete.
If the editor who is accused by Billy
Booth of suffering from delirium
tremens has the self-control to refrain
from a rebutting appellation the peace
