He Learned a Great Truth.

It is said of John Wesley that he once said to Mistress Wesley: "Why do you tell that child the same thing over and over again?' John Wesley, because once telling is not enough" It is for this same reason that you are told again and again that Chamberlain's Cough Remedy cures colds and grip; that it counteracts any tendency of these diseases to result in pneumonia, and that it is pleasant and safe to take.

MARSHAL GILLlS' MURDERER.
Circumstances Of His Arrest al Johnston
Station.

Il
A correspondent of The Leader
at Johnston Station gives the fol-
lowing account of Henry Marsh's
visit and arrest at that town a few
hours after he had murdered Mar
shall ellis, of Summit, on Nov.
10th:
Between and 4 O'Clock on the
day Of the killing, Marsh walked
boldly into town, swinging his
murderous weapon, carelessly
lingering the trigger, declaring
that he twas the man who killed
ellis, " and daring anyone to ar
rest him. Several passers-by
were stopped and questioned by
Marsh concerning his bloody deed,
and he always ended the interview
by saying that he was Marsh, and
he killed ellis.
Mayor Porter, of this place, at
tempted to arrest him, but was
held at bay by Marsh with his
gun. After this Marsh walked up
and down the rail road, his grim
weapon of death clutched with a
firm grasp, watching alertly
from side to side as if momentarily
expecting an attack. He boarded
a switch engine, which was pass
ing by, with the determination OF
returning to the scene of his
crime, but evidently changed his
mind, and after riding a short dis
lance in that direction, jumped
from the speeding train, and was
soon again at the depot, where he
maintained careful watch until
the shades of night began to fall;
then he proceeded to the residence
of Mr.. j. I. Coney, in front of
which several citizens were con-
gregated discussing methods OF
procedure that would effect his
capture. He opened a conference
with them in which he declared
that he would never be taken
alive" but he was constrained to
shed no more blood, and after be-
ing persuaded that resistance was
hopeless, he agreed to surrender,
with the understanding that he
should mot be treated like dog.
These terms being agreed upon.
he unloaded his gun and handed il
to citizen A. w. Crawford, of this
place.
Officers Rube Lee and JAP
Holmes were notified Of his cap
ture and Immediately came and

The children, God bless them, are the buds

We often note the pallid and bloodless cheeks,
heavy eyes, nervous movements, and witch

All are able to be out now, and
in defense of these accidents, we
would say that in some cases a
failure to comply with required
athletic dress rules leads to physi-
cal disaster. The girls seem to be
taking a lively interest in this
game, while every day brings
teachers and officers as interested
spectators to the grounds.

Miss Vivion Davidson who has

on her foot is getting along nicely.
Miss Katherine Sexton has the
