a gentleman at the other shaking
hands with him. A. woman got his pin,
which is quite valuable bit of jewel

the thief for there we're so many ladies
around. The woman passed the pin tc
a male confederate and both were
swallowed up in the crowd.
Mr.. E. W. Wilson, a we'll known

Sore-Head of Chickens.

: The Rural Press Syndicate, Lake
City, Fla, gives the following re-
medy for this troublesome disease
which has been quite prevalent this
year:
It is unquestionably a germ disease
and spreads to other members of the
flock whenever it makes it's appear
ance. Isolation and disinfeotion are
therefore the first suggestions. Many
preparations with germicidal proper
ties are used with more or less success.
Wheelgrease is good; a mixture of
lard and coal Oil half and half is a
good application. 'Carbolic salve is re-
comended by successful poultrymen.
If you have tried the usual remedies
and failed of satisfactory results we
can make suggestion absolutely effec-
tive.
Battle the affected parts, using soft
-clota or bit OF sponge, with the COM
mon surgical solution of corrosive sub
Innate. One part of the sublimate to
one thousand parts of water. Any
druggist can supply the solution ready
for use. Two applications will cure the
very worst cases. The material is a
deadly poison, should not get into the
chickens mouths and should be kept
with greatest care, but it is effective
when all else fails.

South Carolina at the Show.

It is said that Mr.. T. K. Bruner,
of North Carolina, is doing admirable
work in the department. of Especial
Exhibits" for the exposition at St
Louis, aGd that he will be engaged
next week in interesting the to-
bacconists of Washington and Balti-
more in the tobacco exhibit, vsh;n4a is
to form very important part of
the special agricultural display to
be made under MI. Bruner's direction
at the Exposition.
On his recent visit to Charleston
and Columbia in aid of this work,
Mr.. Bruner said that if the Governor
would direct the expenditure of the
money already provided by South Caro-
lima for an exhibit at St. Louis in
this special exhibit, he would under
take to collect and install as part Of
it the leading agricultural products Of
the State, includiag tobacco, rice,
corn, wheat, etc, etc. If the Governor
has determined to abandon the effort
of making a complete exhibit of the
resources of the State, we are sure
that he could not expend the money
he now has at his disposal with better
effect than to expend it under the di-
rection Of Mr.. Bruner for the purpose
named. News and Courier.

Wreck on the Southern.

Charlotte, N. c., Oct. 2S.-By en-
accident resulting in the derailment
OF a double-header freight train near
Bessenaer City, on the Southern Rail
way, this morning, four lives were lost.
The killed are:
Thomas j. Pettus. engineer.
j. R. Higgins and John Thompson,
fremen; white tramp, named Nc
Combs of Gastonia.
The injured are:
@. E. Tate. engineer.
P. S. Pfaf, brakeman.
The train which was a double
header, with two engines, manned by
Engineers T. J. Pettus and G. E.
Tate, and under the control Of Con-
ductor Patterson, was running at a
fair rate of speed, when it was derail-
ed at the switch, near Bessemer City
station. The track at that point was
being repaired by force of section
men, and it is understood that the Sec
tion foreman contends that the danger
signals he had caused to be displayed
were not needed. It is again said that
the negro fagmsn sent back to warn
the train, failed to signal it to stop.

Ex-Governor Crane of Massachu-

Followers Much Perturbed
Over Patronage.

Washington. Oct. 28.-The report
that Senator Hanna will not be chair
man Of the Republican national COM
mittee next year, which report grew
out Of the announcement of Senator
Scott, of West Virginia, that the COM
mittee would meet here early in De-
cember to select the time and place for
holding the meeting next year, is
greatly discussed here today. In fact
Senator Hanna's followers are not a
little concerned, because the opinion
is generally expressed that they will
not receive much patronage from the
Roosevelt forces.
Senator Hanna's excuse of i'll health
for retirement is genuine, because
his appearance bears out this.
Perry Heath, whose reputation in
connection with the postal frauds has
been badly damaged, will retire with
HIM.
Ex-Governor Crane, of Massa-

Stomach Trouble Causes Heart
Trouble.

Heart trouble is almost always caused
by stomach trouble. The stomach fails to
digest all the food, and the residue fer
ments, forming excess of gas which dis
tends the walls of the stomach, causing a
pressure on the nerves and arteries that
lead to the heart. This causes the heart to
palpitate or skip beat occasionally, or
both, which is usually very alarming, caus
ing grave apprehensions. Rydales Stom-
ach Tablets will prevent this trouble. They
digest the food and prevent gas from form
ing in the stomach. If there is no gas in
your stomach your heart will not trouble
you. All dealers.
