Nervousness is very common among
women. This condition is due to anemic
nerve centers. The nerve centers are
the reservoirs Of nervous vitality. These
centers become bloodless for want Of
proper nutrition.
This is especially true in the spring
season. Every spring host Of invalids
are produced - the direct result Of weak
nerves.
This can be easily obviated by using
Peruna. Peruna strikes at the root Of tho
difficulty by correcting tho digestion.

GIBSON GETS AWAY.
Young Negro Alleged to Be Implicated
In Conditt Murder Escapes.

Houston, Oct 2.-nformation from
Edna is that Monk Gibson. the young
negro alleged to have had a hand in
numbering the Conditt family in Jack
son county and ravishing of the mother
and thirteen-year-o daughter, es-
capped from the officers.
After having been subjected to
frightful fortunes. including 100 lashes.
in order to make him confess the
names Of the guilty ones. the officers
decided Friday night to take him from
Edna to jail at Wharton. He was
hastily placed on a horse and Deputies
Powers and Hayes started with him at
full speed. Mobs were then gathering
and it was reported angry crowds were
on the way from Bay City. The negro
was disguised and the escape was sue
cessful from Edna. when a few miles
in the country the negro suddenly
wheeled on his horse and ran through
two barb wire fences which threw his
horse, gashing II SO badly that II died.
He leaped to the ground and escaped
In the darkness
The deputies tried to follow. but
horses were entangled in barb wire.
This was the statement of Sheriff Egg.
1t was doubted when told and the mob
was so frenzied It threatened harm to
the officers. The one dead horse and
other mangled ones are now taken as
evidence of the truth of the story.
Business at Edna was suspended and
all men engaged In the hunt for Gibson.
The father OF Mrs. Conditt made an
appeal TO the people OF the community
condemnlng the sheriff for permitting
the negro to escape. and said that II
retaken he would see 10 1t that the fug-
ititve burned for a week" The crowd
shouted its approval.
Sheriff Egg took exception TO the
statement that he had permitted Glib
son 10 escape. and with a drawn re-
volver asked any one present to step
into the street and settle the matter
personally with him.
