Mayor Smith Not an Expert
Witness.

Mayor JIM. Smith, of Graham, was
a witness in court here this week. as
was also DR.. II. NJ. Witten, the we'll
known physician, of the same town.
The two gentlemen appeared as wit
nesses in case of the people against
A. nj. Wade for shooting Geo. Knox.
Dr. Witten gave expert testimony
regarding the shooting, and the Mayor
was about To do the same when objec-
tions were made and sustained. Mr..
Smith was surprised at not being
allowed To testify as an expert wit
ness, and very promptly informed
the court and the bar that if four
years in the Confederate army
wouldn't make III expert witness, as
Tar as the character of wound made
by bullet fired from different posi-
tions, was concerned he was at loss
to know what would. Mr.. Smiths
retort caused ripple of laughter in
the court room. The Mayor is serving
his third term Mt Graham.

Mix This at Home.

The following simple homemade
mixture is said TO readily relieve and
ove-come any form OF rheumatism by
forcing the Kidneys to filter from the
blood and system all the uric acid and
poisonous waste matter, relieving at
once such symptoms as backache, weak
kidneys and bladder and blood diseas-
cS.
Try it, as it doesn't cost much TO
make, and Is said to be absolutely
harmless to the stomach.
Get the following harmless ingredi-
elts irom aIy good pharmacy: Fluid
EX rae Dandeliol, OF e-half ounce:
Compound Kargon, one ounce; Com
pound Syrup SarGoparilla, three ounces.
Mix by shaking well in a bottle, and
take teaspoonful after each meal and
again at bedtime.
This simple mixture is said to give
prompt relief, and there are very few
cases OF rheumatism and Kidney trou-
b,es 1t will fail to cure permanently.
These are all harmless, everyday
drugs, and your druggist should keep
them in the prescription department If
not, have him to order them from the
wholesale drug houses for you, rather
than fail to use this If you are afflicted.

KEEP THE BANNERS.

When Mr.. Cleveland was President
he attemptee TO restore the flags to
the South that were captured during
the "Great Confederate War;" but the
G.. A. r. opposed it, and it was not
done. This fact prompted Lamar
Fontaine, the Confederate sharpshooter
and poet to pen the following lines:
Keep these banners, gashed and CORY
Keep them there. 10 tell the story;
or our deeds on fields of glory.
Keep them, keep them, let them rest.
Tokens OF a valor splendid,
Glorious memories, with them blended.
or a strife forever ended;
Yes, you keep them; it is best.
Ye who took them, keep and hold
them:
We would not again unfold them:
For the men who first unrolled them
To the battles brseze are dead.
Keep them; they would only sadden,
If, indeed, they would not madden,
Southern hearts, while yours they
gladden.;
For to win them thousands bled.
Still we hail the generous feeling
That would close the wounds now
healing;
But this fact Is worth revealing:
Southland does not want those flags
Not but that she dearly loves them;
Not but that she still approves them.
But she would not have you move
them;
Keep the dear old biood-stained
rags.
Yes, keep them; she would not have
them;
Though she fought and bled to save
them;
She has none who now would wave
them,
To disturb our country's peace.
You to whom they were surrendered.
Burying all that war engendered;
In the love your hearts have rendered
Keep them; they are In their place.

d., Lyon, Miss, 1896.

ASHBY
BY John r. Thompson.

By John r. Thompson.
(The subject of this poem is Gener-
al Turner Ashby, a Confederate officer.
who was killedat Harrissonburg. Va.
in 1862.
To the brave all homage render;
Weep, We skies of June!
With a radiance pure and tender,
Shine, o saddened moon!
Dead upon the field of glory ~
Hero fit for song and story
Lie our bold dragoon!
Well they learn, whose hands have
slain him,
BraVer, knightlier foe
Never fought 'gainst Moor or payn-
Rode at Templestowe
With mien how high and Joyous,
'Gainst the horde that would de-
stroy us
Went he forth, we know.
Nevermore, alas shall saber
Clean around his crest
Fought his fight, fulfilled his labors,
Stilled his manly breast
All unheard sweet natures cadence,
Trump of fame and voice of
maidens;
Now he takes his rest.
Earth, that all too soon hath bound
him,
Gentle wrap his clay!
Linger lovingly around him,
Light of dying day!
Softly fall We summer flower
Make the gloom seem gay.
Then, throughout the coming ages,
When his sword Is rust,
And his deeds in classic pages
Mindful of her trust
Shall Virginia, bending lowly,
Still a ceaseless vigil holy
Keep above his dust.
General Ashby, spoken Of above
was first-cousin Of Mrs. r. r. Henry
of Tazewell.-Ed]

SIX MONTHS
FOR SHAMBLIN
And $3.50 Fine For AS
sauIting Reese Giles
pie-Other Cases.

Grover Shamblin, indicted for fell
oneous assault upon Mr.. and Mrs. r.
Gillespie, near their home at Liberty
Hill, several weeks ago, was tried in
court here Tuesday, and found
guilty of assault and battery upon
Reese Gillespie and sentenced TO six
months in the county Jail and TO pay
a fine of $250.O0. Shamblin was also
indicted for attacking Mrs. Gillespie,
but ii has not been determined
whether he will be tried on this last
indictment at this term of court or
at the expiration of his present SEN
tence.
Shamblin was defended by II. G..
Anderson, DIN. Cosby and Barnes
Gillespie. The cause of Shamblins
trouble was a fight he had with Reese
Gillespie near Knob on Saturday,
April 10Th. Grover Shamblin and
his brother Curtis, were at work
painting several mile west of Liber-
ty Hill, and when they had finished
work theey met James Meadly, the
mail carrier, on his way to town,
leading two horses, and Meadly gave
the boys permission to ride to town.
BY thistime the boys had gotten some
whiskey, and one of them was pretty
drunk. Meadly rode into Mr.. Reese
Gillespie's, the mail contractor, to
feed his horse and the Shamblin boys
followed, and after they had gotten in
the yard one of them was attacked by
a dog, which he kicked and abused.
When Mr.. Gillepie protested, Shamb-
lin struck him and 1t was repored at
the time that he struck Mrs. Giles
pie, who had come TO her husbands
assistance. 1t was also stated that
the Shamblin boys retarded the prog
ress of Meadly, who was carrying the
us. mail, and they will be indicted
by the Federal grand jury.
