 Elgie Cocran.
 The dead man was known here under an assumed name, that of c. Allie and Luther G. Cocran. and he was originally from Columbia. Tenn He is said to have been married and has wife and two chill dren living near his old home. He was employed as a brakeman on the South ern railway, and had a run between Bir- mingham and Atlanta. He came to Bir- mingham from his run Monday night. and as far as known was not seen by anyone. The railroad officials said they did not know much about him, as he had been in the employ of the road only short time He was an old and experienced rail- road man. as he had been employed on numerous other railroads in the south. It is supposed that he used an assumed name here in order to secure a position with the company, having probably been dis charged somewhere else for some of- fense.
 About month ago Cocran was hurt in a freight wreck on the Southern, and was in one of the local hospitals for short time. Since then he has roomed at the home of Mrs. Johnson. It is also said that he and his wife have been sepa- rated about eighteen months. A message was sent to Columbia, Tenn, last night to the dead mans relatives. and some word is expected from there today. He never regained consciousness after being taken to the hospital and died suffering greatly
 Man Identified.
 There was some confusion in regard to the idenity of the man at the time Of the killing, as it was reported that his name was c. A. Cochran, and that he resided with his parents at 1616 Avenue D. This was found to be incorrect, as this man was at Pratt City and very much alive. His aged mother went to the hospital to ascertain if the dying man was her son, and her joy was great when sire saw his face and found 1t was another man.
 The pistol used in the tragedy was a small pearl handled affair. and had the name of 'J. w. Dover" carved on the stock. It is in the custody of the cor oner, as well as the large knife which was found beside the body.

to the Molokans If the Kappa scheme
falls through. He said that additional
facts might be given out in a few days.
Yesterday Pratt wrote to Captain
Demens in Los Angeles. stating what
the status of affairs was at present.
He also informed him of the valuation
placed on the Kappa lands by the
Board of Appraisers, informing him
that it applies only to this specific
ease.
Pratt states further that he antici.
pates no difficulty in getting good
bona fide settlers for the Government
lands here. He has recently received
letters from various parties in the
West asking for information about
such matters. He believes most of
these people are Scandinavians of the
kind who have proved themselves to
be great success as settlers on the
mainland. He has written to several
of these parties advising them to form
settlement associations, as that would
be most advantageous to them.

THE BOYCOTT RIOTS

While Russia is reaping the whirl-
wind, preliminary preparations are
shaping for a similar garnering in the
Chinese Empire. The causes are quite
different, but, II Russia were not on
the verge of collapse, the situation in
China would be very much to the fore
in public interest. The fact that big.
ger events shade il does not detract
from the dangerous portent of Incl.
dents arising in Shanghai from the boy.
colt of Americans.
The original purpose of the Chinese
boycott was to pay back in the coin OF
revenge, the alleged insult committed
by our nation through the exclusion Of
the Chinese COolie. Doubtless the
keener minded and better educated of
the Chinese knew very well what they
hoped TO accomplish. 1t Is not improb-
able they received much aid as well
as sympathy from certain Americans
opposed to the exclusion OF Chinese and
ready to support radical methods in
securing its overthrow. Undoubtedly
the boycott was fostered by men of
other nations with goods to sell. They
acted neither wisely nor well,
The outbreak in Shanghai, though
briefly reported, bears much confirma.
ton of the fear expressed when tho
pan against the United States was first
laid. that the boycott of Americans
would do little more than infame the
prejudice against all white people and
bring about another Boxer uprising
with widespread murder, mobbing and
slaughter of innocents.
ANY policy of reprisal based on
arousing Chinese prejudice is one that
plays with fire. After it is in full
swing and has reached a deplorable
ending there will be apologists in plen.
ty to offer the excuse that the thing
got away from them. Ii will then be
too late to mend. 1t is one thing to
stop buying goods that another may
profit and quite another to have this
refusal to do business feed depressed
hatred Of all white races, whether they
have wares to sell or religion to preach
1t may be said with accuracy and re.
greet, that damage to the wares will eX'
cite more activity than will opposition
to religion. Wanton destruction OF
human life, however, from any cause

warfare under any circumstances and

STOP THAT COUGH!


Miss Lillia, Of Illinois, started out
exactly in this way. Fortunately, she
took course OF Peruna before 1t was
too late. She had caught several colds,
then a cough developed. She took all
sorts Of cough medicines, until, as she
puts IL, al sickencd at the light of them.",
In four weeks Pcruna had cured her OF
her catarrh and her system was entirely
rid Of it.
This is what Peruna is doing all the
while. Not n day, and probably not an
hour, passes but some one has similar
experience with Pcruna.
The first step toward consumption Is
catching cold. The next step is failure
to cure It promptly. The third step Is
the development OF catarrh, which grad
ually becomes chronic. Thcfourth step,
the catarrh begins 10 spread from tho
head TO the throat. The fifth step, the
catarrh spreads TO the bronchial tubes
and lungs. 1t then becomes consump-
ton in its first stage. /
At any time during the progress Of tho
catarrh, from the first onset OF the cold
to its final settlement in the lungs, Pc
runa can be relied upon TO stop the dis
case. 1t cures entirely. Even after
consumption has become thoroughly
developed, many cases have found in
Peruna permanent cure. After they
have been given up by physicians to die
Of consumption Peruna has cured them.
We have hundreds Of testimonials
that declare these facts in the most
enthusiastic language.
| U. S. Senator John NJ. Thurston, from
Nebraska, writes tho following letter
from Washington, d. c., under date Of
April G, 1901:
az have used Peruna at various times
during the past year or two with most
satisfactory results.
at entirely relieved me from an irri-
tating cough, the result OF excessive
effort in the Presidential campaign, and
I am firm believer in its efficacy in
any such troublc."--Jno. ". Thurston.
To take quieting medicines TO stop .
cough is absurd and harmful. The only
way TO stop cough permanently and
without doing more injury than good Is
to cure the catarrh, which Is exactly
what Peruna does. 1t cures the catarrh
OF the bronchial tubes and the cough
ceases.
At the slightest appearance OF a cough
n bottle OF Peruna should lie taken
accCrG.ng TO directions. One bottle in
the beginning will do more than half
dozen bottles after the catarrh has
fastened itself on the lungs.
