Are said often to be buried six feet under
ground. But many times women call on
their family physicians, suffering, as they
imagine, one from dyspepsia, another from
heart disease, another from liver or kid
ney disease, another from nervous pros
tration, another with pain here and there,
and in this way they present alike to
themselves and their eaSy-going or over
busy doctor, separate diseases, for which
he, assuming them to be such, prescribes
his pills and potions. In reality, they are
all only symptoms caused by some uterine
disease. The physician, ignorant of the
cause of suffering, keeps up his treatment
until large bills are made. The suffering
patient gets no better, by reason of the
wrong treatment, but probably worse. A
proper medicine like DR.. Piercs'S FavOrite
Prescription, directed to the cause would
have entirely removed the disease, there
by dispelling all those distressing symp-
toms, and instituting comfort instead of
prolonged misery. 1t has been well said,
that "a disease known is half cured"
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is a
scientific medicine, carefully devised by
an experienced and skillful physician,
and adapted to woman'S delicate system.
1t is made of native American medicinal
roots and is perfectly harmless in its
effects in any condition of the female
system.
AS a powerful invigorating tonic "Fa-

the whole system and to the organs dis

Montgomery Ala, Sept. 1.-Eugene
Bowling, a white man, was placed in
jail here charged with intercourse with
his two daughters, one 16 and the
other IA. They say it has been his
habit for more than a year. The
greatest indignation is expressed at

neighbors had suspected something
wrong and an investigation led to the
arrest. The girls allege that he had
threatened to cut their throats and
throw them in the river if they told

L. L. Dorsey Was Carried Back to
Jonesboro and Will Be Released on
Same Rond-MlIner Is stl7 in Crit
tieaI Condition.
Jonesboro, Ga, Sept. IL. L. Dor
sey and Otis Dorsey, of this place,
sons Of the late B. H. Dorsey who
was killed by Leon T. Miner, and
Arthur l.. Norris, of Atlanta, cousin
OF the Dorsey boys, were indicted by
the grand jury Friday afternoon for
for assault with intent to murder, the
indictment charging the three men
with assault on Milner a few minutes
after he had been acquitted Of the
charge Of numbering the elder Dorsey.
Norris was arrested here, and Civ
ing the $1,000 bond assessed by Judge
Roam, returned to Atlanta L, L.
Dorsey was brought back from At
lanta and will be released on the same
bond. Otis Dorsey has not yet been
apprehended.
Miner is still in a critical cOndi-
ton and may die at any time, though
be several days before they can give
a definite decision as to his chances
for life. Though having no body
wounds, the bone of his right thigh
is shattered halfway to the knee and
it is feared that it will be impossible
to prevent blood poisoning.
1t is believed that further search for
Otis Dorsey is useless and that he
will give himself up in a short time
The August term of Clayton supe-
rior court adjourned Friday afternoon
and unless a special term is ordered
by Judge Roam, the two Dorseys and
Norris will not be brought to trial
until February. Judge Roam has
given no notice of ordering a special
trial
1t is said that testimony was CIV

claiming to have been witnesses
to the shooting and that one bailiff
says he held one of the assailants for
a short time and is sure of his iden-
tity. Nothing further is known as to
the nature of the testimony and the
action of the grand jury is the only in
dication of their opinion.
While it is generally felt that the
attack on Miner came as the result
of high feeling and though some SYM
pathy has been expressed for the men
who did the shooting, the conserva-

county are incensed over the affair,

"BLAcK HAND SHOWN MAN.
He Is Told that His Children Will Be
Killed,


wilmington, N. c., Sept. 1.-Wil.
mlngton has had its first touch of the
Black Hand" although some regard
the incident as a joke. Still, if it
was intended merely in jest, its in
tention miscarried, and woe be unto
the party at fault if discovered by
the postal authorities.
A well known young engineer of
thls city, Elisha Warren, a man of
much property, received through the
mail letter demanding of him one
hundred and twenty-five dollars and
threatening death to his two children
In case of his refusal Dire results
10 him would be the outcome of his
dfvulging the demand of the wrater
and the letter was signed "Black
Hand" and decorated with ominous
skull and cross-bones.
The letter was mailed the dav be-
fore in this city and bore the post
mark of that date. The demand called
for the placing of the money specified
In large coal bin at a steamers
landing and stating that the spot
would be marked by red flag.
The receipt of the letter was kept
as quiet as possible and Friday night,
at the hour noted in the epistle, an
effort was made to capture the writer.
The money was placed at the spot
though the presence of a red flag
was not noted and detectives took
up vigil at points of vantage. How
ever the quest was a useless one, as
no one appeared on the scene other
than the officers and the money was
not touched.
The affair is now being investigated
by postoffice detectives and if the
writer of the Letter can be found Uncle
Sam will deal severely with him.
