BATESVILLE SURPRISED
When the Governors Special Troop
Train Rolled In.

ram 1OIIeU III
Batesville, Miss, Feb 29.-lt was
not known here that the sheriff of
this county had called for troops to
protect the negro murderer Albert
Baldwin, until Gov. Vardaman arrived
at the depot on a special train, ac-
compaAied by company of militia
from Greenwood, and a part of the
company from Itta Bena.
There also evidently has been some
misunderstanding about the amount
and paying of the reward, and the
actions of the sheriff 1t is understood
here that Sheriff Johnston has handed
over the reward to the captors of Bald
win, and at the time retained the GUS
tody of the prisoner, whom he later
turned over to Gov Vardaman.
There were, of course, the usual ru-
mors and counter rumors as to the
probable action of mysterious body
of armed men, but they were not in
evidence in this town. In fact. so far
as could be seen here there was the
usual calm.
While it is possible that the sheriff
could have protected the negro. his
being taken away removes from the
scene the exciting cause to what might
have eliminated in violence. Tonight
Batesville is as quiet as usual, al
though there is more or less talk about
the majesty of the law of this common
wealth

Induoement to Marriaae,

Jackson, Miss, Feb. 2S.-The circuit
clerks in Mississippi are endeavoring
to bull the matrimonial market. In
several counties of the State the cir
cult clerks have made the public an
nouncement that in every case where
it is stated in the application for IL
cense that the bride has availe1 her
self of the leap year privilege by pro-
posing to the prospective groom no
fee will be charged, and the clerks will
thus give a donation of SO to start the
young couple on their matrimonial
voyage. Several instances are report
ed where licenses have been procured
on these terms.

NOT MUCH IMPRESSED.
George Thought There Was Much
Sound and Very Little of
the Solids.

If New York has word to say to the
stranger within its gates, says CORE
spondent OF the New Orleans Times. Dem
ocrat, il is this: Have you succeeded at
home? Ii not, why do you think you will
succeed where conditions are more com
pick and difficult?" But in New York, as
in other large cities, those who are not
to be "bluffed" or discouraged and who go
resolutely about their business are reason
ably sure of success. Sometimes, perhaps,
d little success makes more OF a noise IN
the world than il should.
One evening in restaurant, says the
correspondent, we were waited on by a
real southern darby. lie was so unmls-
taxable that at last | said to him:

"Yas' M" was the grateful rejoinder.

Dodd's Kidney Pills. The pills were con-
tinued regularly for three weeks and then
few doses every week, especially if pa
tient felt any pain in region of Kidneys.

DR.. Williamson has been regular prac-
titioner for over twenty years, and his
unqualified endorsement of Dodd's Kidney
Pills is certainly wonderful tribute to
this remedy.
