CITIZENS PAY FINE
 TO SECURE NEGRO

Okolona, Miss, April 20.-ln or der to secure John Lewis, negro. charged with several horse thefts here, citizens of the community have raised a subscription to pay a fine assessed against the black for minor offense in Alabama, where he was arrested this week.
 Lewis. who posed as a preacher, travelled about the country and it is charged that he was implicated in the theft of many horses. He was taken into custody a short dis tance over the state line in Ala bama. There was minor charge against the prisoner there and the magistrate before whom he was arraigned refused to relinquish juris- diction over him until the $2o fine and the costs which he assessed were paid or worked out.
 Sheriff Hill, who went after the prisoner, returned here and report ed the circumstances to the grand jury. That body returned bill of indictment charging horse stealing against Lewis, but could do nothing to secure him from the Alabama au- thOrities.
 When the citizens heard of the circumstances public subscription was started and an amount neces- sary to pay the Alabama fine and costs was soon raised.
 Lewis is expected to turn states evidence against an organized gang of horse thieves which has been operating in this section of the state for some time.

LYNCH NEGRO
 AFTER PRAYER Mob Which Wreaks Ven geance Upon Fred Xiii bourne Grants Dying Re quest of Victim.
SECOND CASE IN WEEK.
Officers Make Desperate Eiieri to Save Prisoner at Clinton Black Charged With Attack on A hitc Woman at Plantation.

Clinton, l.a., April Preceded by a prayer spoken by one of the leaders of the mob, the second lynching ill Louisiana this week oc- hero. Both lynchings were for sim liar causes, alleged attempted as- sauts upon white women, and ven- gencc Was wrecked ill both cases after the negro had once escaped the mob's anger and was being con veyed to safety by officers of the law
 Fred Nilbourne, a young negro, was last nights victim. He was caught about midnight. Il is said that the two deputy shefiffs who had nim in charge made a des- perate struggle, but were over- 1 powered by the size of the mob, which included 300 men and boys. No shots were fired by either side.
 Protests Innocence. The negro protested to the mob that his arrest Was a mistake; he begged for chance to appear be- ! fore a jury and prove that he was not guilty and finally he pleaded piteously for mercy. His captOrs his statements, but remained un- moved in their determination to hang him.
 When he saw that death was cer- tain, the negro knelt on the ground and asked that he be led in prayer.
 His request was granted. The prayer was mumbled by one of the leaders. Every head was uncovered.
 Then he was hanged to the limb of cypress tree. Not a shot was fired at the negro, although every member of the mob was armed. The leaders were determined men and kept order throughout the proceed ings, dispensing their followers as soon as nilbourne was dead.
 Feeling High.
 The participants in this lynching resided both here and in the coun- try all about this place.
 Nearly all day yesterday a steady stream of armed and angry men had poured into Clinton and had spent f a day discussing what should Ee done
 The authorities apparently did their best to give the negro jury trial Kilbourne was spirited away from the jail yesterday and hidden in swamp just in time to escape the first attempt upon him.
 With the prisoner temporarily safe, the sheriff argued with the crowd. assuring them that speedy trial would be held. The crowd ap- peared to be satisfied with this as- surance and preparations had been rushed to such an extent that 1t seemed certain the negro would be given a trial and his innocence or the latest.
 He was employed on the planta- tion of the women whom he was al- legged to have attacked

The Evolution Of
Household Remedies.

The modern patent medicine ousi-
ness Is the natural outgrowth Of the
eld-iime household remedies.
In the early history Of thi< country.
EVERY FAMILY HAD ITS HOME
MADE MEDICINES. Herb teas,
bittefs. lsxatives and tonies, were to b
found In almost every house, compound
ed BY the housewife, sometimes assisted
by the spotheeary or the family doctor.
Such remedies a. piefa, which was
sioes and quassia, dissolved In apple
brandy. Sometimes hop tonic. made
Of whiskey, hops and bitter barks. A
score or more Of popular, homemade
remedies were thus compounded, the
fofmulse for which were passed along
from house to house, sometimes written,
.smetimes verbally communicated.
The patent medicine business II Q
natural outgrowth from this whole
some, oid-timc custom. In the begin
ming, some entesprising doctor, i'm
pressed by the usefulness Of one Of
these homemade remedies, would take
Il up, improve II in many ways, manu-
faeture Il on . large scale, advertise II
mainly through almanaes for the home,
and thus Il would become used over .
large area. LATTERLY THE HOUSE
HOLD REMEDY BUSINESS TOOK
A MORE EXACT AND SCIENTIFIC
FORM.
Peruna was originally one Of these
oid-time remedies. II was used by the
Mennonites, Of Pennsylvania, before Il
was offered to the public fof sale. DR..
Hartman, THE ORIGINAL COM
FOUNDER OF PERUNA, is Of Men,
MONTE origin. First, he prescribed II
for his neighbors and his patients.
The sale Of IL increased. and at last he
established q mandatory and fur
nished IL to the general drug trade.
Peruna is useful in Q great many
climatic ailments, such as coughs, colds,
sore throat, bronchitis, and catarrhal
diseases generally. THOUSANDS OF
FAMILIES HAVE LEARNED THE
USE OF PERUNA and its value in the
treatment Of these ailments. They
have learned to trust and believe In
DR.. Hartman's judgment, and to rely
On his remedy, Peruna.
