RECEIPTS SHOW BIG DECREASE
Cotton Crop About AmerIcus Nearly
Gathered.

The very decided falling off in daily
receipts at the Americas warehouses
adds to the mute statement of the bar
rem cotton fields here that the crop is
harvested. In some sections there is
still consid cradle cotton to be picked,
but The bulk of the crop has been gath
cred and sold. Daily receipts here
now run from 200 to 300 bales only, and
farmers say there is but little more to
come. Not in years has a crop been
gathered under such favorable circum>
stances. Without drop of rain upon
it from the time the first bale opened,
the crop has been picked white and
clean aud commanded the highest
prices. To this extent the farmers are
in luck, end have much for which tc
be thankful.

FIVE BULLETS AT A BURGLAR.
Lady Shoots at Thief But Misses
Mark

The most persistent thief in AmeIi-
Gus is still target for bullets at Col.
lege street residence as, unfortunately,
none of those sent after him already
seem to have hit. Twice, recently, he
has been fred upon there.
And eight times within a month has
he called at this place in an effort to
rob the house.
Once he effected an entrance and
stole few articles, but upon the other
occasions he was seen and fred upon
ere he had chance to gain entrance to
the dwelling.
Another fusiIade of bullets was sent
after him yesterday morning.
The lady of the house heard win
dow raised and, pistol in hand, went
to investigate. She saw the man dis
tinctly, and fred as he stood under the
window. She missed, of course, but
her act was brave one.
AS stated, this was the eighth a.
tempt recently to rob this place.
The backyard abuts upon the rail
road track, and tramps and vagabonde
generally find it an easy matter to ap-
proach the house. Probably some OF
the professional beggars who come this
way have hand in the robbery.
1t is to be hoped that a bullet will
finally strike home in the carcass oil

Cause of LockJaw,

Lockjaw, or tetanus, is caused by a
bacillus or germ which exists plenti-
fully lin street dirt. It is inactive so
long as exposed to the air, but when
carried beneath the skin, as in the
wounds caused by percussion caps or by
rusty nails, and when the air is exclud ed
the germ IS reused to activity and pro-
daces the most viruleut poison known.
These germs may be destroyed and all
danger of lockjaw avoided by applying
Chamberlain's Pain Balm freely as soon
as the injury is received Pain Balm is
antiseptlc and causes such injuries to
heal without maturation and in one
third the time required by the usual
treatment. Il is for sale by all druggists
