PRETTY WOMEN LOVE
Admiration and They Admire
STRONG MEN.
That Rejuvenating Tonic Called
VITONA

makes men strong and makes women
pretty. VIToNA also makes women
strong and enhances masculine beauty
Beauty is only skin deep and VIToNA
makes the skin pretty. An observant
physician can tell by the appearance of
the skin whether or not person is in
good health. IF health is perfect the
skin proves it. VIToNA vitalizes, tones
up and restores good health, simply
because it influences conditions that
maintain life. VIToNA makes the blood
circulate and makes it pure, aids diges-
ton, strengthens the nerves, cures weak
kidneys, catarrh of the urethra, sore
flesh, pain, etc. Many husband and
wife have grown more fond of each
other since taking VIToNA, for where
there is love there must be life.
John L. Mckee, of Athens, o., writes !;
My wife and / owing to stagnant blood ,
indigestion, weak kidneys, ETC., had
been in poor health for quite while.
We both tried catarrh, kidney, liver,
nerve, ETC., medicine, but only got
worse My wife's sister wrote her to
try VIToNA. We both did SO and /
would not think such a. change OF feel

ten dollars for bottle if I could not
buy it for less"
VIToNA costs one dollar bottle or six
bottles for five dollars, and while The

Mrs. DIsmukes files SUIT.

Mrs. Cele>t- D smpkeS. OF
Artesia. Miss, has filed suit in
the Circuit Court against the
Sovereign C4mp. Wood men of
the World, dpmicied at Omaha,
Neb., for Sl1OO 90. which sum
she claims TO be due on an in.
surance policy issued To her son,
A. L. Dismukes, deceased. Mrs
Dismukes. who is represented
by Hon. z. P. Landrum, sets
forth in her declaration fled
with the circuit clerk here that
the policy was issued to her son,
who accepted itin good faith and
that the same was signed by the
proper authorities in Omaha.
Mr.. Dismukes, on whose life
the policy was issued, was the
young man who became involved
in a difficulty with a young
telegraph operator named Kim
ball at ArteSia las April in
which he received injuries which
later caused his death. The
defendant is represented by Col.
VIM. Baldwin, aud in defense of
the suit will set up the plea that
the policy was in process of
issuance when the difficulty in
which the young man was fatally
stabbed occurred. and that Mr..
Dismukes was in a dying condi-
ton when he attached his sigma .
ture to the policy, and as a
matter of fact did die within
forty eight hours thereafter.
The defendant AYERS therefore
that the policy was not in full
force, and for that reason refuses
to make any payment whatever.
The case will come up fer trial
before Judge Sykes in the cir
cult court.

Arden Ackert. the gifted son of
the late L. Fl. Ackert, who for
some time previous tohis lament

last week, and the papers of that

DIR. w. II. Boiling, the eloquent
and gifted pastor Of the First
Methodist church of jackson at
the conclusion of his conference
year in this State will leave
Mississippi and will be trans
fered TO another conference for
work. This announcement he
made a few days ago at Jackson.
where he has been stationed for
the past four years.
This information will be re-
ceived with sorrow and regret by
many in this community. 1t
was hoped by them that the
place of the beloved Lewis would
again fall TO DR.. Boiling, for the
latter gentleman has a host of
warm friends in Columbus who
would be glad to again see him
located here. The above an
nouncement from the man him
self sets at rest any speculation
as to his coming here.
Rev. It. w. Lewis has been
pastor of the First church here
for the past four years and his
period of service here is drawing
to a close. 1t will end this
January when the conference.
which meets in Novem Der. will
transfer him to some other field
of labor. His departure will be
the source of genuine sorrow not
only to his congregation but to
the entire com immunity for no
man in a long number of years
has so endeared himself to the
people here as has Mr.. Lewis
Within his church and without
his church he is loved by all and
it is a matter of regret that the
church rules make necessary
the termination of relations so
delightful. Wherever his field
of service falls he will always
have With him the genuine friend
ship and esteem of the good peO-
pie of Columbus.

Heavily Fined.

Several weeks ago Mayor
Gunter had two members of the
police force visit the places OF
business of the various mer-
chants in the city engaged in the
sale of hop ale, beerine, pbos-
phate and other connections
which were supposed to contain
more than the legal amount of
alcohol, and obtain sample
bottles of each. The merchants
whose places were visited all
gave the samples to the police
officers most willingly and when
seen by the Mayor stated that
the parties from whom the stuff
was bought had assured them
that it was non Intoxicating and
contained only the amount of
alcohol authorized by law Mayor
Gunter thought otherwise, how
ever, and to decide the question
sent the samples obtained from
the different retailers to Mr.. W.
H. Hand. the chemist at the
Agricultural and Mechanical
College, for analysis
On last Wednesday Mayor
Gunter received from Mr.. Hand
the analysis of the different
S ,mples sent. which showed that
all of the stuff contained more
than the legal amount of alcohol,
aud that some of it was really
n thing more than beer. Upon
receipt of this letter the Mayor
notified the seven white men,
Messrs. Robert Mann, J. T..
Benoit. John Morehead, ]. L.
Pratt. j. H. Tuttle. j. B. Shaw
and E. II. Crippen, and the two
negroes, Henry Davis and Mack
Brown, co appear before him at
the city hall, and each was
sentenced to pay fine of fifty
dollars each.
When the defendants first ap-
peared before the Mayor they
were not represented by counsel.
but after the fine was imposed
upon them they employed Hon.
e P. Landrum. who on behalf of
his clients, appealed the case to
the circuit court, each one Of the
defendants giving bond in the
sum Of one hundred dollars.

A CitYp Directory.

Among the. needs that the
rapid growth and constantly in
creasing population of Columbus
has brought forward is that of a
city directory, and Mr.. John r.
Patterson. who is connected with
the postoffice and who is there
fore in position to realize the
demand for such a book, has
decided to undertake its publica-
ton. The book will be com plete
in every detail, giving the name
and place of residence of every
person more than eight years of
age residing in Columbus and
also the business addresses of
those who are engaged in bust
ness. In addition to this the
book will contain thirty page
write up of the city, which will
make it splendid advertising
medium, as it will not only have
an extensive circulation in Co
lumbus but in other places as
we'll
There is no question of the
fact that city directory is badly
needed here, and there is no one
ia Columbus who is better
qualified to undertake it's publ
cation than is Mr.. Patterson.

Neqre Shot.

Mr.. ]. r. Ponder. who works
at the office of the Colum bus
Com mercial and who operates a
farm about nine miles northeast
of the city, had some trouble
with a negro farm hand named
Allie Perkins on his place last
Tuesday as a result of which he
was compelled to shoot the negro.
A DISPATCH reporter interviewed
Mr.. Ponder soon after the shoot
ing, and his version of the affair
is given below.
On Tuesday morning. the Per
kins negro started to the gin OF
Mr.. Morgan a few miles distant
with a load of cotton belonging to
Mr.Ponder and enroute met little
Karl. the seven year old son OF
Mr.. Ponder. who got on the
wagon for a ride. AS soon as
the negro saw the boy hanging
behind the wagon he popped his
whip at him and gruffly ordered
him to get off. This the boy re-
fused to do and the negro stoppde
his team, got down off his wagon
and proceeded to give the boy a
thrashing, whipping the poor
little fellow until the blood poured
from his body and lin bs.
AS soon as the matter was re-
ported to the boys mother she
sent for her cousin. Mr.. Tom
Blewett. who lives in the neigh
borhood, and that gentleman
caught the negro and held him
under guard in a cotton field
pending the arrival of Mr.. Pom
der, who had been communicated
with over the telephone. AS
soon as Mr.. Ponder learned of
the affair he procured a shot gun
and revolver. and jumping in
a buggy FASTENED homeward.
When he reached his plantation
he spied the negro in the cotton
field, where was being guarded
by Mr.. Blewett, and i'm mediately
began firing at him with his shot
gun. The gun was loaded with
No. g shot, and Mr.. Ponder says
he feels certain that the negro
was hit, as he saw him stagger.
He soon recovered his equilib-
rum, however, and made dash
for the woods. disappearing from
sight entirely.
Mr.. Ponder and Mr.. BlewettI
made a dash after the negro and
endeavored to overtake him, but
he made good his escape. The
search was renewed on Tuesday
night and again on the night
following, but all efforts to locate
the negro proved futile.
