OFFICE OF J. r. LASSITER.

HENDsONVILLE, 5. c., Sept 2, 1886.
MR. A. B. GIRARDEAU, Savannah Ga.
DEAR SIR:-Some years ago I operated float
ing saw-miIl on the Savannah River. My base of
operations was being constantly changed and my
hands were always exposed to the worst malarial
influences. / employed over one hundred hands,
and the work was conducted as much in water as
out Of it, For this reason, in August and Septem-
ber there was great loss of time and business, on
account Of sickness among the workers.
My attention was then called to Johnscn's Chill
and Fever Tonic, and [ determined to give the
medicine trial. I procured 1t, and those who
were sick were put on this treatment, and those who
were feeling badly were at once given the Tonic
In a short time every one ofthe one hundred hands
well and reported for duty; and from that time
ON [ used nothing else but Johnson's Tonic and
never had another case of fever.
Yours very truly,

ROCKVILLE, Md, August 30, 1903.
George Holland, the young negro who was
shot at Emory Grove camp meeting last
Sunday by Deputy Sheriff Bradley. was
given a hearing here yesterday before JUS
tice of the Peace Brewer upon the charge
of assaulting Sheriff Collier. 1t was clear
that Holland attempted to draw a revol-
yer to use upon the sheriff when Bradley
shot him and it was also charged that he
struck the sheriff In default of bail in the
sum of $500. the accued man was committed
to jail to await the action of the November
grand jury. Holland will also have to an
swer the charge of resisting arrest and
carrying concealed weapons.

a colored picnic by Deputy Sheriffs Bradley
Welt and White. 1t is charged that the
men were acting as travelling "speakeasies'
and were dispensing liquid refreshments
with considerable boldness. They were
given a hearing here yesterday afternoon
before Justice of the Peace Reading, two
cases being against each. In default of
bail in the sum Of $500 each. they were
committed to jail to await the November
term Of court.
1t is stated that the Montgomery County
Anti-Saloon League has started another
crusade against violators of the local OPP
ton law. 1t is understood the organization
has employed two colored detectives to
ferret out cases, and 1t Is reported that the
services of a white detective will also be
secured. 1t was thought the heavy penal
ties which have been recently imposed in
local option cases had about frightened the
"speakeasies'' out of business but 1t is
stated that they are again doing business
at the same old stand.
Sheriff Collier and several of his depu-
ties spent a considerable portion Of today
at Emory Grove colored camp meeting. but,
unlike last Sunday, the visitors were on
their good behavior and the officers had
no occasion to make an arrest. These an
nual gatherings are looked upon by the
county police authorities as seasons of
trouble and this year Sheriff Collier de-
termined to let its lawless element that
attends understand that disorder would not
be tolerated and personally attended the
camp with his deputies.
