ANOTHER MAN IN
 THE RACE FOR MAYOR
Mayor and Five Aldermen Are to Be Elected In Decatur on
 May 1.

Decatur, March 2.-(Special)- 1.-The city election takes place on May 1. and as q result municipal politics are nvening up a. rapid rate. There are to be elected mayor and five aldermen at this time
 D. B. Morrow has been a candidate for mayor for several weeks and now J. Douglas Scruggs. a member of the board of aldermen, has announced for mayor. It is generally believed that the present mayor. Henry A. Skeggs. will announce. but as yet he hasn't said whether he will or will not ATr. skeggs is candidate for one of the associate railroad com missioners and has been for some weeks On this account he may not announce for mayor He has been mayor of De- eatur for seven years. Both Scruggs and Morrow have published their platforms on -hich they will make their race. Both advocate reform in the city gov ernment and favor better streets.
 As yet there are no candidates for al dermen announced, but it is believed that the old board will stand for reelection with the exception of Scruggs, who Is a candidate for mayor.
 Heretofore the marshal and clerk have been elected by the board of aldermen, but now there is a strong sentiment in favor of the election of these officers by a vote of the people and this latter plan will, perhaps, be adopted this time.
 There are no candidates for clerk thus far Neither are there any announced candidates for marshal but it is gener- ally believed that the present marshal, D. c. NJ. Young and eX-Night Marshal Tom Pierson will be applicants for the position.

BLACKSMITH PREACHER
 TALKS FROM SHOULDER
Says There Are People In Decatur Who Keep Deck of Cards and
 Whisky on Center Table.

Decatur. March 27.-(Special)-The Rev. NJ. w. Bullard preached a sermon in West Decatur at the school house last night in which he made some sensational statements.
 Among other things the preacher said; "There are people in this city who keep deck of cards and a bottle of whiskey on their center table in the parlor You can't blame the saloons and the keepers of the gambling hels for running your boys when you yourself taught your boys their A. B. C's.
 T have heard preachers preach about mules, love and marriage and then they would tell me they got their text out of the Bible. Yes, that is true. They didn't get their text in the Bible. There are many fine churches in this city and the devil has put his preachers in these churches to preach. The churches are built of old rotten material and white washed over by the devil so they look nice. l have tried to get some of those broadcloth preachers to come to the West Decatur school house and preach to you but they say there isn't money enough in it. Last summer l was hold | ing a meeting in the country and there was one man in the neighborhood who said he didn't have time to go to church. All his time was taken up with trading mules and selling watermelons to the church-goers. Brother, sister what you need is Christ Jesus in your hearts. You may say that l am 11ardshell. Well my shell is so hard that the devil and his preachers can't crack it. No, l am | a Missionary Baptist, but l am not a fool with it"
 The preacher stated that he knew one minister, a pastor of a popular church in the Decaturs who went into saloons and drank with certain members of his church.
 Mir Bullard will not accept money for his preaching, but makes his living as a blacksmith in the Louisville and Nash vile Railroad shops in New Decatur He breaches every Sunday in or near the Deeaturs Sometimes he rides many miles on Sunday to preach. He says he doesn't want pay here for preaching; that ae will receive his reward in the world to come

possessed by his opponent, and would be of great service to him as a congressman. Captain Hobson held the audience for about two hours, and all present seemed much interested in his speech manifest ing this frquently in loud and prolonged applause. He closed with an appeal to all voters to give him a chance at the pri- mary on April 9.
 Much interest is being manifested here in the revival services which are being held at the Methodist church. Great crowds greet the pastors both at the afternoon and night services and many appear to be deeply affected by the earn est and eloquent appeals of the ministers who are conducting the meetings. It is probable that services will be continued throughout this week.

EATEN OUT OF
 HOUSE AND HOME
How a Confirmed Dyspeptic Developed an Appetite Like a corn-Husker's and Cleaned Out Everything
 In Siuht

The wife of leading druggist of Des Moines tells how her brother was changed from dyspeptc without appetite to a prodigious eater.
 My brother, who is a lawyer in Chi cago, came to visit me and hardly knew him on his arrival he was so thin and run down. l had not seen him for years and was much alarmed at his appearance. He told me not to worry as he had beer in this condition for years as a result of chronic dyspepsia. I asked him what he had done for it, and he said he had done everything-taken every remedy he had ever heard of and consulted doctors with. out number. none of them helped him. I asked him if he ever took Stuart's Dvs- pepsia Tablets, and he said he hadn't and what was more he wouldn't He had sworn off taking medicine of any kind
 '1 had my husband bring home box from the store and I actually made him take one or two of the. tablets after he had eaten. They made him feel so much better that he offered no further objec- tion He mad not taken the one box be- fore he was greatly improved and three or four boxes cured him of dyspepsia and gave him a wonderful appetite He came near eating us out of house and home My. but it did me good to see him eat. He gained fifteen pounds be- fore he returned home, and he writes me that he haS not been troubled With dyS- pepsia since"
 Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets actually do the work assigned to them They relieve weak and overburdened stomaclis of their work of digestive action. Their compo- nent parts are identical with those of the digestive fluids and secretions of the stomach and they simply take up the grind and carry on the work just the same as a good, strong, healthy stomach would do It.
 On this account Stuart's Dyspepsia Tab lets are perfectly natural in their action and effects They do not cause any un- natural or violent disturbance in the stomach or bowels. They themselves d. gest the food and supply the system with all the nourishment contained in what k eaten and carry out Natures plans for inc susrenance and maintenance of the body.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets. by thus re lieying the stomach of it's work. enable it to recuperate and regain its norpa1 health and strength Nature repairs the worn and wasted tissues just as she heals and knits the bone of a broken limb. which is. of course not used during the process of repair.
 stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are for sale by all druggists al 50 cents box. One box will frequently effect perfect cure.
