WALKER HAS REFUSED TO EAT FOR A WEEK
The Crazy Negro Prisoner Said by Physicians Be
Condition. Effort May Made Have Him Released.

Asbury Walker, the crazy prisoner
in the Terrell county jail The News
told of last week, is said by the ply
sicians who are attending him to be
in very serious condition. He has
not taken food of any kind in more
than week, and most of the time he
is in a stupor. He occasionally
rouses up and raves like the mailman
that to all appearances he is.
Walker, as is we'll known by News
readers, was convicted a year ago of
murder and sentenced to a life term in
the penitentiary, and has been in Jail
here about twelve months awaiting the
hearing of a motion of new trial.

Spence, lives in another circuit, and
for these reasons nothing has been
done toward getting hearing of the
motion for another trial. There are
great many who believe that Walk
er's sentence is much too severe, and
that if another trial is ever given him
he will go free.
One of the physicians who attended
the prisoner told The News yesterday
that he cannot live in his present
quarters, and will soon die if he re-
mains in Jail.
1t is understood that citizens of
Dawson who have become interested
in the case will make an effort to have
the motion for new trial heard by
Judge Spence, and Walker released
on a small bond.

popular druggists, have succeeded in
getting the DR.. Howard Co. to make a
special half-price introductory offer

The medicine is a recent discovery
for the cure of all diseases of the
stomach and bowels. 1t not only
gives quick relief, but it makes
permanent cures.
DR.. Howard's specific has been so re-
markedly successful in curing cOnsti-
patton, dyspepsia and all liver
troubles that the Dawson Drug Co.
are willing to return the price paid in
every case where it does not give re-
lief.
The old-fashioned idea of dosing

harsh purgatives will soon be thing
of the past. The best physicians are
prescribing Or. Towards specific be-
cause it really gives the desired re-
suits and on account of the small and

ployed, to pass upon before any one
of the bids is accepted.
1t is expected that the contractor
making the accepted bid will begin
work almost Immediately, certainly

ten inch drive pipe and carried down
until sufficient quantity of water is
obtained. In case the ten inch pipe
strikes a rock through which it it can
not penetrate an eight inch pipe may
be substituted. 1t is believed that an
ample supply of water will be secured
at depth of about 400 feet.
The boring of this we'll will not in
terfere with the pending negotiations
between the city and waterworks COM
pany In case the watetworkS COM
pany's plant is purchased the arte-
sian supply will be added to it, and in
the event no settlement is reached the

NOW is THE TIME FOR HYoMEI
Far Easier to Cure Catarrh Now Than
at ANY Other Season.

at ANY OGnef season.
Now is the time to use Hyomei,
when the early summer days make it
so easy to cure catarrhal troubles.
The Hyomei treatment, breathed for Il
few minutes three or four times a day,
in May or June will do good twice as
quickly as it did in January, and near
ly everyone knows that if used faith
fully then it completely rids the sys-
tenn of catarrh.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
but one dollar, and consists of neat
inhaler that can be carried in the
purse or vest pocket and will last a
Lifetime, medicine dropper, and a
bottle of Hyomei. Extra bottles of
Hyomei can be procured, if desired,
for fifty cents.
The Dawson Drug Co. gives their
personal guarantee with every Hyo-
mel outfit they sell to refund the mon
ey if it does not give satisfaction.
There is no risk whatever to the pur-
