A LYNCHING IN EARLY.
Ex-Convict Entered Home of Joe
Wheeler in Damascus at Midnight.

A negro by the name of John
Towns went into the house of Joe
Wheeler, a respectable white man
living near Damascus, Thursday
night about II o'clock and badly
frightened Mr.. Wheeler's wife, while
in her room. She gave a scream
which Immediately awoke her hus-
band, who was in another part of
the room, but the negro made his
escape.
A posse was formed and the ne
gro tracked about two miles, where
he was found in a cotton field pick
ing cotton Friday morning. He was
taken in charge and carried to Da-
mascus and locked up, and before
the sheriff arrived from Blakely a
mob strung him to a tree.
He admitted going into the yard,
but denied going into the house.
However, the proof seemed to be
against him, as he was tracked from
the window where he made his en-
trance and from the door where he
made his escape. The negro was an
eX-convict.

COWBOYS NOVEL CONTEST.
Event Has Just Taken Place
in Oklahoma.

Cowboys of the southwest gathered
last week in Bromide, Okla, a new
health and pleasure resort which
modestly claims the title of the
Carlsbad of America" and RECALLED
tenderfeet visitors with a typical wild
west celebration and championship
rOping contest. Many twirlers of the
hemp contested for first hOnors and
the winner claims the worlds cham
piOnship. Milton Beeler, who was
killed few months ago by horse
falling on him, held the title. Since
his death Bob Kiser claims to be the
premier roper of the land, having
made 29-secOnd record on the same
horse that killed Beeler. This ia
nous steed, ''Nigger Boy" is grow
ing old and the Bromide contest will
probably be the last in which he will
participate. Captain John Kiser, a
brother of the champion, is also a
famous roper, and has a standing
wager of $25J that he can rope anu
tie a steer in 20 seconds.

MISS MAYME e. SMITH, 444 East
AVA Mound St., Colum bus, Ohio, writes:
"Have used Peruna for catarrh and
hay fever. The results being remark
able, can highly recommend it to all
who are suffering with the above dis
eases. | am happy to be able to say it
has helped me wonderfully"
What is known as hay fever is in
reality endemic catarrh, a catarrhal
condition of the nose, throat, some
times the bronchial tubes, induced by
some local irritant.
The irritation is generally due to vege-
tai carnations of some sort. Hay has
been suspected as being the cause of
this malady, hence its name, hay fever.
1t has been attributed to rag weed and
other vegetation also. 1t is a very
capricious disease, coming and going.
A medicine that will help one case may
not help another. Such treatment has
always been very uncertain and unsat-
isfactory.
Peruna helps some cases without
doubt, although it is not claimed to be
an infallible remedy for such cases.

CAMPHOR DEATH TO WEEVIL.
Thomas County Farmers Try the
Remedy i'm Their Corn Cribs.


Rev. A. c. Stephenson, who lives
in the northern part Of Thomas coun-
ty and is a good farmer as well as
preacher, made the suggestion some
time ago that if the farmers would
try scattering camphor balls among
their corn when they stored it they
would find it very effective in pro-
tecting the grain from weevils.
A number of the farmers who have
tried it say they are much pleased
with the results, it being not only
the best but the cheapest remedy
they have ever tried. Thousands of
bushels of corn are destroyed every
year by the weevils, and anything
that will prevent them is a great
boon to the farmers.

AN UNEOUALED RECORD.

Many Students Placed in Good Posi-
lions During Month of August.
The employment bureau of the
Athens Business College of Athens,
Ga, placed many of its graduates in
good positions during the month of
August. We doubt very much if
there is another school in the state
that has placed half as many during
this particular month. If there is a
former graduate of the A. B. G. out
of employment we would be glad to
have them write the employment de-
partment at once, for from present
indications it will not be long until
we will not be able to supply the
demand for our graduates of Book
keeping, Business Training, Short
hand and Typewriting. If you know
of anyone needing the services of one
of our graduates write us, for we
make a specially of replacing our
students in higher salaried positions.
Often students that have been out
of school holding positions for two
or three years find that they have
reached the top with the firm for
which they are working, and desire
to get with a firm that can give them
more work and pay better wages.
Through our employment bureau we
handle all kinds of positions at sal
aries fro $500 to $4,000 per year.

systems taught in this school write
