Danger!
Headache, Tremb- ling Hands, Witch ings, Irritability,
 Are Signals.

Not every headache is a sign of nerv- ous breakdown.
 But, if you suffer often from headache that seems to re-occur at intervals. nerv- ous or brain trouble is very evident.
 Again, if you can't hold a pen to paper without trembling or twitching, there's a screw loose somewhere.
 Or, if you seem irritable and cross without cause.
 All these are signs and symptoms.
 Not necessarily that you are danger ously sick-But. at any rate, sick enough to need Dr. Miles Nervine.
 The danger lies in neglecting the slight symptoms.
 Some of these signs are Sleeplessness, Dizziness, Reliability. Loss of Memory. Fretfulness, Headache, Melancholy. Neu- ralgia, Muscular Twttchings.
 Do not neglect them. Begin to take Dr. Miles Nervine. It will cure them.
 For five years have suffered terri bly, from nervous prostration. I tried one physician after another, but re- ceived no benefit. I continued to grow worse until was afraid to be left alone, and despaired of ever being cured. Three months ago I was induced to try Dr. Miles Restorative Nervine. After taking the first bottle felt so much better that I was greatly encouraged. l continued to take it until had taken three bottles, and am now in better health than I haVe been foE years. - MRS. c. A. BRAMAN. Troy, Ohio.

skeets stiII Makes Mystery.

Chief of Police E. T. Walters has re- ceived from Frank Rauchfuss in Dem yer, Col, a telegraphic message that he cannot come to Selma, and that he wishes the body of his brother, Otto, to be buried here; but as the body of Otto Rauchfuss, dead or living, has not been found, the telegram means nothing; and people on the street still surmise as to the present locality and condition of Skeets.
 It is not exaggerative to say that a hundred stories about the missing man are current. His water-soaked corpse has been found upon a snag, his floating body picked up by fishermen; Rauchfuss in the living flesh has been seen upon Sanders Bar. in all the pla- cidity that marks the patient fisher man, and again he has been seen wan dering wildly in the canebrake. But none of these sayings can be verified and the story told by John Whitaker, that Skeets deliberately drowned him. self, is generally accepted as verita- ble.
 officers are still searching for his body, but no news as yet has reached the city.

STILL. HAS HIS NERVE
BAMBERGER WILL NOMINATE HEARST IN THE CONVENTION.
Ardent Advoeates of the New York Editor Do Not Predict, However, That Alabama Will Instruct
 Its Delegates For Him.

Advertiser Bureau,
 Selma. May 24.
 This afternoon and tomorrow morn ing delegates from Dallas county to the State convention leave for Mont gomery and their moving hither and thifher and their gossip has been to- day the sole news of the town.
 But with all thip talk the sense of the Dallas delegation can not readily be told. Unity rule'' is the great say ing, but how far it extends, there is no prophesying. One thing, at least, seems certain; there Is little disposition in favor. among this county's repre- sentatives, of an Instructed delega- tion. There are of the sixteen many against Cleveland. some for Parker. q couple for Hearst. but the majority doubtless is Ito beat Roosevelt. And the unit rule, too. applies, perhaps most strictly to candidates for posi- tions as delegates at large to the na- tional convention. Of the halfsAdozen aspirants named maybe half are favor- ites. but the fourth is bone of com tention and doubtless only the consen- sus of the entire convention will carry the vote of Dallas county.
 It is interesting to note that of the entire delegation of sixteen not more than two are TOT Hearst, put these VIII be loyal to the New Yorker.
 A. c. Coates is regarded as unequiv- ocally a Hearst man, and John D.. Riggs, an early proclaimed Hearstite, has delegated his proxy to Louis Bam- berger, manager of The Selma Times, which has steadfastly in news and ed- itorial departments given over it's strength to the furtherance of the Hearst boom. Mir. Riggs said to-day that MT. Bamberger, "one of the sil- yer tongued orators of the Black Belt" would present the name of William Randolph Hearst to the convention. Unit rule or non-unit rule" said Mr. Riggs, the name of this great states man shall be heard. It may be that Alabama's delegates shall see fit not to instruct for him, but he shall at least be considered. He has many fol- lowers in this State and no rule can re- tain his name unspoken." MT. Bam- berger refused to be interviewed. He hoped, he said. to review the Hearst delegates in procession at the conven- tion, but he would not demand this. Pointing to a headline in The Adver- tiser of to-day. "Hearstites Lose Nerve" he said. If that means me, it is a lie."
 The delegates from Dallas are:
 H. g. D. Mallory, Wm. B. Craig, James B. Ellis. Edmund P. Lacy. Ar chibald l.. Mcleod. Louis F, Jeffries. Chambliss Keith, James R. Satterheld, Marion S, Smith, John D. Riggs, A. c. Coates, Robert E. L Neil, Henry F. Reese, Robert D. Walker, J. Leon Clay. Samuel A. Reynolds,
