 Open Fire.

Heard. a notorious negro character of this community, was burned to death at the saw mill of Enttie 6 Weaver about two miles east of Centrevtlie last night.
 Jett was in town yesterday and unEil late last night. In some way he got some whiskey and proceeded to get drunk.

This morning the house in which he lived was found in ashes, and only the charred remains of the negro were left to tell the tale. His wife had gone from home to spend the night and Jet was alone at the time the fire oc- cured.

DANGEROUS SURGERY. Death Follows the Surgeons Knife. Not the Surgeons Fault, of
 Course-He Can't Help It.
Pyramid Pile Cure Cures Piles Quickly, Painlessly, Without
 Danger.

People go along for years suffering with piles. They try this and that and the other thing from carrying a buckeye to getting treatment from physician. They obtain temporary relief, maybe, but they afe never quite cured. A little strain in lifting, excessive fatigue little consti- patton Or a little diarrhoea and the piles como back.
 They don't seem to amount to much. but they Banish sleep and appetite. No position is comfortable. There is intense local pain and that dreadful feeling of weight in the perineurn.
 Maybe in the early stages some of the many salyes on sale will afford temporary relief. If the cass is of long standing there is only one speedy and sure remedy It is Pyramid Pile Cure. Even in light eases 1t is the safest thing to use. Other applications may cure and may not. Py- raElid Cure is always certain, always re. liable, always brings comfort at once. Its prompt use saves months of severe suf- ferine. Tn extreme cases it will save surgical operations. and thelr attendant dangers and discomforts- It Is better than knife. WiIl cure easier, quicker and safer. Thousands have used it. Thousands have been cured by it. The cost is trtfiinB compared with what it does. The price is 50 cents Most ahy. body would gladly pay ten dollars to be rid of piles.
 All druggists sell Pyramid Pile Cure. Write Pyramid Drug Co, Marshall. Rfich, for their book on Causes and Cure of Piles. which ig sent Tree for the asking.

 Weather Predicted by ob-

It snowedi
 Just a furry, but it was snow. The flakes didn't get in during Novem-
 Der, but they scathe early enough to break . record.
 The weather man says record-breakIng seems to be pastirne with the whimsical elements nowadays. Yesterday, the first day of winter, gave the first snow in Montgomery of this sea-
 son. It was a mere Hurry and melted as 1t fell, but it Is one of the earliest snows on record here. This has been quite an unusual season, as far as cold Is concerned. On Novem- Der 18th the temperature of 8 degrees was the lowest recorded here that early; then the same temperature was registered here on November s7. Then again. the tenn perature here has been so low that Ice formed on every morning for the past six days, which is a November record that has not been broken here since 1S72, when we had very similar cold spell.
 The average temperature here for November was 6S degrees, which was about three degrees below the average for November. and the lowest averages for that month ever recorded. except 4S In 1872. 52 In 1876. and s1 in 1esO.
 Rainfall here for the month was about two and two-thirds inches less than the average.
 Light snow also occurred in many other northern, central. and western portions of Alabama yesterday. Partly cloudy weather Is promised here
 for today.

A REED SHAKEN
 WITH THE WIND.
Without Will Power, Courage, Am biticn, Energy or Hope, the Dxs- peptic is Willing to Give up
 the Struggle.

The confirmed dyspeptic has as little interest in life as any human being. He Is unfitted for it's duties and is iFdifger- ent to its charms. He is unable to enjoy the business and social relations thas constitute the life of the avefaRa man. Al his hopes are absorbed by the one hope to get well and again be able to en. joy the good things of life. untii this Ia realized, he is sick at heart and feais himself to be of Ittse use.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are the stif4 ferers tree of life. They will cure him and bring him health and happiness just as sure and certain as he takes them. They are sure because they are natural and no other cure but natural one is sure. They act on the food and digest 1t just as we'll as a stomach would. They contain exactly the same chemical prop critics as the digestive fluids of the stom- ach.
 By putting stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets in bottle or jar with any kind of food; meat. eggs, or vegetables, with sufficient amount of water, the process of digestion Is carried out just az 1t Is in healthy human stomach and fin the same time. There is consequently no unnatural dis turbance Of the digestive organs resulting from the use of 3tuart's Dyspepsia Tab lets. They relieve the weak and worn- out stomach of It's work and permit 1t to lest up and recuperate and regain its normal health and strength.
 A well-known Buffalo physician says: ''I prescribe stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets on all occasions as 8 relief for weakened and rundown stomachs. find they eon4 tain all the ingredients necessary for the proper digestion of the food ana viii do more to give the stomach the needed rest than any medicine could prescribe. They have never failed to give immediate re- lief in all cases and I do not hesitate to recommend them to all sufferers from q
