Serious Stabbinu Affair.

Kirk Lybrand, second son of Judge J. w. Lybrand, was stabbed and per haps fatally wounded recently by w. c. Cotton, superintendent of the Bluff City Lumber Company, at their camp in Grant county. MT. Cotton himself brought the first news of the difficult ty when he went to Sheridan and gave himself up. He claims that he acted in self-defense. Lybrand was formerly employed by the Bluff City Lumber Company, and, according to MT. Cotton, the difficulty arose over former business differences. Ly- brand has a serious wound in the abdomen, and lies in a critical condi- tion, with the chances said to be against his recovery. Cotton gave bond in the sum of S5,000 for his ap- pearance at the preliminary trial. the date of which has not been fixed. pending the result of Lybrand's in- juries.

 Tn the country this summer 1 met a new one, which was firmly believed in by several farmers, and that was that thunder storm never passed over a copper mine or copper vein. The old fellow who told me about it pointed out again and again that al though black clouds might roll up and lightning flash, the storm always went around certain spot in his farm.
 Such actions on the part Of a thun- der storm could mean but one thing, he said-that there was a copper vein there. So sure was he of it, that he was putting by little each year to have the spot investigated to see if there was copper enough in it to work

Good Shooting For a Kid.

J. B. Reese, the 14-year-old son of s. 5. Reese of Nashville, on a Sun day morning recently killed 13 teal ducks on the pond on the Glendale stock farm at one shot. A number of ducks were swimming around on the water when the shot was fired, after which 13 were se- cured. The boy shot again as the ducks arose to fly away and killed another, making IA ducks at two shots. MT. Reese states that he does not allow his boy to hunt on Sunday, but that such shots as those made last Sunday morning in a measure palliates the offense.

The opinion was rendered at the request of Superintendent Hinemon and is as follows: Hon. John H.

The state license must show this attendance on the part of the holder for five consecu- tive years by having on it the en- dorsement of the county examiner from year to year, as is the case with holders of county license, otherwise said license becomes null and void at the expiration of five years from the passage of this act. or from the date of the first institute held after such license has been issued.

RUN DOWN FROM GRIP
0r. Williams Pink Pills Have Cured This Form of Debility in
 Hundreds of Cases.

"Four years ago." says Mrs F. Mor- rison, of No. 1929 Carson street, South Side, Pittsburg, Pa., "I took a cold which turned into the grip. This trouble left me all run down. was thin, had hackache much of the time, had no ap- petite, my stomach was out of order and l felt nervous and unstrung.
 While I had the grip had doctor but really suffered more from the con- dition ill which the influenza left me than l did from the disease itself. l felt generally wretched and miserable and the least exposure to cold would make me worse. couldn't seem to get any better until Ibegan to take Dr. Williams Pink Pills. l very quickly noticed benefit after began taking them and they restored me to good health and strength. Dr. Williams Pink Pills are a wonderfully good medicine. Thanks to them l am now ill fine health and have had noreturn of my former trouble. recommend the pills to everyone who is ailing and take every opportunity to let people know how good they are.''
 Dr. Williams Pink Pi<s cured Mrs. Morrison because they actually make good, red blood. When the blood is red and healthy there can be no debility. The relation between the blood and nervous system is such that the pills have a very decided action upon the nerves and they have cured many severe nervous disorders, such as partial pa- ralysis, locomotor ataxia and St. Vitus' dance, that have not yielded to ordinary treatment. Their double action, on tha blood and on the nerves, makes thems ideal tonic.
 All druggists sell Dr. Williams Pink Pills. or they will be sent by mail post paid. on receipt of price, 50 cents per box, six boxes for 8 50, by the Dr. Will iams Medicine Co.,, Schenectady, NY.

CASE AGAINST PRATHER
THROWN OUT COURT

The State.
Barnwell, Nov. 13.-Judge Gage
has about completed the criminal doc
ket for this term and will doubtless
commence the civil business tomor-
row. There have been no important
eases to be tried at this term, near
ly all the eases being against negroes
for small offenses. In most cases n
verdict Of guilty has been rendered.
The grand jury threw out the case
against w. w. Prather, who was
charged with an attempt at criminal
assault. It will be remembered that
some time ago Prather was arrested
here on warrant sworn out by Mr..
Quitman Rountree of Dunbarton,
charging that Prather had attempted
q criminal assault upon his wife.
Just before court convened Mrs.
Romtrcc wrote Solicitor Davis ask
ing that the prosecution be dropped
as she had acted under the excite
ment of her fears when she had her
husband swear out the warrant.
