There is more Catarrh in this
section Of the country than all 9TH
er diseases put together, and until
the last few years was supposed to be
incurable. For a great many years
doctors pronounced it local disease
and prescribed local remedies, and
by constantly failing to cnre with
local treatment, pronounced it incur
able. Science has proven catarrh to
be a constitutional disease and there
fore requires eonstlrurioual tr~as,
ment. Halls Catarrh Cure, manufac-
trlred by F. j. Cheney & Co., Toledo,
O., is the only constitutional cure on
the market. It is taken internally in
doeses from 10 drops to teaspoonful
1t acts directly On the blood and mu-
cous surfaces of the system. They
offer one hundred dollars for any case
it fails to cure. Send for circulars
and testimonials.

ADJUSTMENTS

A great many people become pre-
Judlced the moment that they see
the paper on the bill boards announc
ing the appearance of a burlesaue
company, and these very same peo-
pie when they go to Mex York, or
any other big city, are the first to
patronlze the big Broadway produc-
tions. which are billed as Extrava-
ganza 5, take for instance the "Wiz-
zard OF Or ''Babes in Toy-land,'
Blue Beard,'' 1.-The Isle of Spice,'
"Paris by Night,'' "a Venetian Ro-
mance,' Etc, Etc, even go as far
back as "Baba' or "The Black
Crook What was any of these
productions but great big burlesques
True they are produced on an elabor
ate scale, so much so that you never
have chance to witness the original
production in its entirety. The Broad
way Burlesque Company, that is
billed to appear at the New Phillips
Theatre, Wednesday, November 2,
comes to our city as burlesque com
pany and does not style itself as an
extravaganza, the show is given in
its entirety, nothing being omitted,
they give just exactly the same per-
formance as they do in New York,
Boston, Philadelphia, Washington,
Chicago, st. Louis and all other big
cities where they have appeared to
crowded and well pleased houses.
Take any Of the productions named
above, and what will You find in
them. A lot of pretty and shapely
girls, elegant scenery and costly
costumes, bright and catchy music,
and clever comedians. You will find
just the same in "The Broadway
Burlesquers, but this Company will
even do better. 1t will afford more
genuine fun and laughter in one
evening than all the other combined.
This attraction is the one that you
cannot afford to miss. It was here
twice last season, gave satisfaction
and comes to the New Phillips We'd

SERIOUS ALLEGATIONS
MADE IN CITY COURT.

There were what at first seemed Ia
be unusually sensational developments
in the City Court yesterday morning
Charges were made that juror had
been approached, that Deputy Sheriff
Palmer Kirkland had attempted Ia
bribe a witness. and a variety of other
things before the matter was finally
cleared up.
The case was that Of 7. c. Dawson,
against the Savannah Electric Compa-
n.y. a suit 10 recover $500 damages for
personal injuries. At former hearing
Of the case $1,000 had been granted the
plaintiff. A motion was then made for
a new trial. and Il was this rehearing
which was to have been heard yester-
day.
Mr.. r. r. Richards. attorney for
Mr.. Dawson. first made the statement
that certain witness, A. j. Delk had
been offered position with the cleo
trio company II he would not give his
evidence against the company. II was
claimed that the bride OF employment
had been offered by Chief Deputy Sher-
if Palmer Kirkland.
on the heels of this came the allega-
ton that l.. e. oliver, a juror, had
been conversing about the case with
Mr.. Kirkland and had been informed
by the court officer that the case was
"a conspiracy against the electric
company"
Then came the afidavit that a wit
ness. Will Rushing. had been offered
500 for his evidence I'm the case. Rush
Ing. II was claimed. had expressed the
wish that Dawson would soon get his

off.
An investigation began at once and
Deputy Kirkland was cleared of all
charges against him. 1t was shown by
indisputable evidence that Delk had
asked him for position and suggest
ed one with the railway company. Mr..
Oliver, in a signed statement, said: II
consider II all my fault. started the
conversation with Mr.. Kirkland my
self. Mr.. Kirkland Is my personal
friend and did not try to influence me
In any way. l so told the Judge"
Scarcely had Mr.. Kirkland been vim
dicated and the court reproved Jurors
and witnesses for discussing any case
pending, when II developed that the
plaintiff was I'm the lookup with a
beautiful Jag. This was the finishing
blow and the case was continued. The
plaintiff, some claimed, had been
"doped," but these charges were easi-
ly refuted II was just a plain case
OF exuberance and a jag.
In speaking OF the charges brought
against him, Mr.. Kirkland said: The
imputation that ] tried 10 influence a
Juror and a witness IL very unfair and
unjust. / am grateful 10 the Judge for
the prompt investigation and my COM
plete vindication."
