Death of a weiI Known Negro.

Another life which was closely en- twined around that of the late lament ed Senator Edmund winston Pettus. passed out here early this morning when the Angel of Death placed it's icy finger upon the brow of Tom Chap man. a well known negro resident of Selma. "Old Tom" ss he was called by everybody had been sick for sev- eral weeks past and his death was learned with sincere regret by his many white friends today.
 For many years he had been a fa- miliar figure upon the streets of the city. He peddled fruit and peanuts secured a nickel or dime, whether they took any of his goods or not. He was on better terms with the white citi- gems than any other negro of Selma has ever been.
 Nearly all of his life Tom Chapman had in some way been connected with the family of Senator Pettus During late years he had not been able to do any work but whenever he needed any thing he always went to Senator Pet tus or some member of the family.
 Before the war the old negro was the property of the late Judge Chap man. He was ten years older than Senator Pettus and became the latter's body servant soon after Senator Pet tus married. Long years ago when Judge Chapman was presiding over a circuit in Sumter and Greene counties and Senator Pettus was the Solicitor "Old Tom" drove them over the cir cuit. The late Senator Pettus was very much attached to the old negro.
 Tom Chapman also had the distino- ton of being the last negro in Dallas County to assist in holding an elec- tion. This election was when the pres ent Constitution of the State was ratified by the voters. At that election he represented the Republican Party at one of the city boxes and during latter years he was proud of the hon. or.
 He accumulated little money and at the time of his death owned the place where he died on Lamar Street

I took him to the best doctors, and one of them said that he would keep the disease till he got all of his teeth; but if had de- pended on the doctors, guess my boy would have been laid at rest by this time. My friends told me to try many kinds of remedies, and pestered the child to death with all the different things, but could see no improvement. Finally got discouraged, and was just about to give up all hope of his ever getting cured, when read about the wonderful Cuticura Remedies, which came just in time to save my baby from the terrible torture. I used Cuti- cura Soap and Cuticura Ointment, and gave him Cuticura Resolvent, and I saw an improvement in three days, and in three weeks his skin was as clear as 1t could be.

SAN ANTONIO
TO BROWNSVILLE.
PIsasantOn Citizens Endorse the Proposed
Lott Railroad.

The Pleasanton correspondent of
the Daily Express wires his paper
that at a monster mass meeting
held there Tuesday night at the
Court House committee of prom
inent citizens was appointed ts
visit San Antonio for the purpose
of comforting with business men
there relative to building the pro-
posed Lott road through Pleasan-
ton.
The project of the San Antonio
Business Mems Club and that of
Uriah Lott was heartily endorsed
and every effort will be made to
get the road built through this
place.
The committee will spend Thurs
day in conference with San Anto-
MO business men. On Friday
morning it is proposed to meet
Uriah Lott at the Business Mems
Club rooms and discuss fully the
building of the road with him.
As the business men of Pleasanton
do at the present time business
of more than 100000 with the
business houses of San Antonio,
Pleasanton people believe that it is
to the advantage of the San Anto-
Mons to offer some assistance in
getting the road built here. There
are number of matters in this
connection that will be fully dis
cussed with the San Antonio busi-
ness men.
