Tondencv of the Times.

The tendency of medical science is to-
ward preventive measures. The best
thought of the world is being given to
the subject. 1t is easier and better TO
prevent than to cure. 1t has been fully
demonstrated that pneumonia, one OF
the most dangerous diseases that medi-
cal men have to contend with, can be
prevented by the use of Chamberlain 5
Cough Remedy. Pneumonia always re-
suits from cold or from an attack OF
influenza grip, and it has been OBJ
served that this remedy counteracts any
tendency of these diseases toward pneu-
monia. This has been fully proven in
many thousands of cases in which this
remedy has been used during the great
prevalence OF colds and grip in recent
wears. and can be relied upon with I'M
plicit confidence. Pneumonia often re-
suits frem a slight cold when no danger
is apprehended until it is suddenly dis
covered that there is fever and difficulty
in breathing and pains in the chest,
then it is announced that the patient
has pneumonia. Be on the safe side
and take Chamberlain Cough Remedy
as soon as cold is contracted. 1t al.

FEATs OF MEMORY.
London Spare Moments.

London Spare Moments
 Extraordinary memories have attracted the attention of men in all ages. and in these days q man with retentive memory is considered to be more or less gifted.
 Some good instances of remarkable mom- Ories are to be gathered from the records of Greece and Rome. Themlstocles, a ia nous Greek general. is said to have known every citizen of Athens. No doubt Otho. the Roman Emperor. owed much of his success to a remarkable memory. He learned the name of every soldier and officer in his army and this, among other things. rem dered him so popular that he was at length acclaimed emperor.
 Hortensius the Roman orator. is said to have been able. after sitting a whole day at a public sale. to give an account from memory of all things sold. with the prices and names of the purchasers
 Coming 10 later times, the following anec- dote affords instance of wonderful pow CTS of memory. An EnglishniAn went to Frederick the Great of Prussia for the ex- press purpose of giving him an exhibition of his powers of recollection. Frederick sent for Yoltaire. who was then residing at the Prussian court. At the, kings request Vol taire read a long poem which he had just composed The Engiishman was present, and iu such position that he could hear every word of the poem. though he was concealed from Voltaires notice. After the reading of the poem Frederick observed to the author that the production could not be an original one. as there was 6 foreign gentleman present who could recite every word of it. Voitaire listened in amazemeit to the stranger. as he repeated. word for word, the poem which he had been at so much pains In compos ng. and. giving way 10 a momentary outbreak of passion, he tore tho manuscript in pieces He was then in formed how the Englishman had become acquainted with his poem. and his anger being appeased, he was willing to do pen ance by copying down the work from the second repetition of the stranger, who was able to go through 1t as before.
 There lived in the sixteenth century at Padua, a law student who had trained his memory to such a high degree of perfection that he could recite thirty-sLx thousand words after once hearing them read

 The power of retaining events has some times been manifest in a market degree. A laboring man named McCartFey, at sA years of age claimed that he could .recollect the events of every day for forty years \. test was made by weli-known pbiic man. who had kept a written record for forty-five years The nuns statement was fully cor robrated-indeed. so accurate was his recol- lection that he could recall without appar- ent effort the state of the weather any given day during thoss forty years.
 Another instance of Q wager being won by a feat of recollection was that of Mir. Futter. who not many years ago was a well-known tithe-collector in Norfolk. He wagered that sis could recollect every word of sermon that was to be preached, and afterward write it out verbatim. He was not seen to take notes. and at the close Of the services retired to room and wrote out the sermon. On comparison with the manuscript. which the. preacher had been asked to bring for the purpose, 1t was found to vary in one instance only. where a synonym had been used, but in that Mir.

ONE NEGRO LYNCHED
RESULT OF THE MURDER OF
 DOCK COLE.
Efforts to Obtain Names of Members of the Mob So Far Has Been Without
 Result.

Bay Minette, April 21.-(Speciai 9--The sheriff of Baldwin County has just re- turned from the scene of the murder of Dock Cole at Little River.
 He says that soon after the murder. which occurred Monday night at o'clock large crowd assembled but waited till early Tuesday morning to begin the hunt for the assassins.S Robert Tate, Naro- leon Henry. Hand Ransom and Donald and Reuben Sims. all negroes. were ar rested. Justice of the Peace Drisbach of that precinct issued warrants and says he appointed a deputy named Willis Banner to take charge of the negroes, This occurred during Tuesday.
 When asked by the sheriff to see the written evidence, he replied that he had taken none. On inquiry the sheriff found that after dark the Justice released Ra- mer and appointed Eugene Gentry. who lives about ten miles across the line in Monroe County .s--. ll
 About Il o'clock that night a crowd which had formed decided that all ex- cept Reuben Sims were innocent and dis charged them. The mob consisted of a large number of Monroe County men as well as those in North Baldwin.
 After interviewing a large numher who admitted being at the scene, the sheraff says he could not find one who knew the fwhereabouts of Reuben Sims. Clans were never shut tighter than the lips of these people, but the sheriff managed to get the opinion of few. which was to the effect that after whipping Sims he confessed and was hanged to a limb and riddled with bullets. and then given a burial
 The father and mother. however, know not where the body of the son lies. and no amount of quizzing could elicit any further or any positive information. The scene Is thirty-six miles north of here and no wire connections.
 The mother of the young murdered man was first to dnd his body. and she now lies prostrated with grief. The sheriff says he returned to communicate with the Governor and give the people time to get cool, when he believes two other negroes Will be implicated in the crime. The lynching took place ten hours be- fore the sheriff was notified of, the mur- der. ' .
 It appears that no one on the scene knew him. %+f
