'one Touch of Nature Makes the
Whole World Kin"

When a rooster finds a big fat
worm he calls all the hens In the barn
yard to come and share 1t. A similar
trait of human nature Is to be OBJ
served when a man discovers some
thing exceptionally good-he wants
all his friends and nelghbors to share
the benefits OF his discovery. This Is
the touch Of nature that makes the
whole world kin.Thls explains why
people who have been cured by
chamberlnin's Cough Remedy write
letters to the manufacturer for pub

may also use It and obtain relief.

Dwelling DESTROYED by Fire.

On Sunday night at about seven
O'Clock the dwelling house of Mrs. Mar
garet White, three miles northeast OF
Tazewell, caught on fire and was total
ly destroyed. The fire started in a room
on the second floor of the house while
Mrs. White and the other occupants of
the house were at supper. When dis
covered the flames had spread to such
an extent that nothing could be done in
the way of saving any of the household
effects on the upper floor. Persons in
the neighborhood seeing the fire went
promptly to the scene and succeeded in
removing most of the furniture and
other articles on the first floor. The
smoke house and chicken house caught
from the burning house and were also
destroyed, but the meat was taken
from the smoke house and the fowls
saved.
Mrs. White is a worthy widow lady,
daughter of the late Rev. Samuel Aus
tin, and this serious misfortune is to be
deeply regretted. Her loss will amount
to several thousand dollars, and is a to-
tai loss, as she carried no insurance.

A COMPLICATED CASE.
Action BY Three Governments Nav Be
Necessary To Fix Responsibility
OF KiIllna.

New Orleans, February 24.-Action
by three governments, the United
States, Great Britain and Norway, NAV
be necessary to fix the responsibility
for killing which took place on the
Ellis, in the Gulf of Mexico, on last
Tuesday.
+. B. Taylor, who claims to be an
American citizen, and who was a pas
senger on the Ellis, was arrested upon
the steamers arrival here today from
Port Limon, Costa Rica, charged with
killing Thomas Summers, a deck hand
and citizen of the British COLONY of
Jamaica. The Ellis flies the Norwegian
flag, thereby bringing the Norwegian
government into the matter.
Members of the crew said that he an
peared not to realize what he was doing
at the time of the shooting, ard that
they know of no motive for the killing.
After investigation the United States
officials have announced that TAYLOR
while apparently under the influence of
liquor, was tossing up and catching a
revolver, which as it dropped into his
hand was discharged, and instantly kill
ing the deck hand. The United States
District Attorneys Office announced
that Taylor will be held for action by a
Federal jury and that the trial will take
place here. Taylor gave his home as
Rockbridge, Iii. He was formerly
Texas and Pacific railroad conductor.
