Will H. Thompson, when the jury try
ing his son, Chester Thompson, who
shot and killed Judge George Meade
Emory, brought in a verdict tonight
which, though it declares his son a
lunatic, removes the tarnish of muir
der from the family name.
The trial has attracted unusual at
tention on account of the prominence
Of the families. Judge Emory was 6
lifelong friend of Will H. Thompson

note, and was for a time counsel fol
the Great Northern railroad. He is g

InvIqorate the Digestion.

To invigorate the digestion and
stimulate the torpid liver and bowels
there's nothing SO good as that old
family remedy, Brandreth's Pills,
which has been in use for over a cen
fury. They cleanse the blood and i'm
part new vigor to the body. One or
two every night for week will usual
ly be all that is required. For Consti-
patton OF Dyspepsia, one or two taken
every night will in a short time afford
great relief.
Brandreth's Pills are the same fine
laxative tonic pill your grandparents
used, and being purely vegetable, are
adapted to every system.
Sold in every drug and medicine
