The undersigned citizens OF the
County Of Lowndes. State Of Aiss5s-
sippi, would respectfully petition that
You grant a pardon 10 Albert Ram
sey tcoIoredJ, who IS now serving a
sentence for 35 years in the State
Penitentiary of the State of Missis-
sippi, having been convicted Of man
slaughter in the Circuit Court Of
Lowndes County, State OF Mississippi,
June 1, 1893. and said petitioners al
lege the following grounds upon
which said pardon should be granted:
That according TO the testimony Of
Mary Gholson and another negro
woman, the deceased came 10 her
house at night and tried 10 break the
door of her house down with an axe,
and, as the life of the Gholson woman
had been threatened by the deceased.
the Gholson woman shot with pis-
tol through the door and wounded
her, from which injuries she died
few days thereafter.
The deceased stated before her
death, she had gone there thinking
her husband was there, and she be-
lieyed her husband did the shooting.
and on this supposition he was
convicted.
There was also no evidence show
ing any motive for the killing OF the
deceased by Albert Ramsey, and in
view of these facts, and the fact that
he has suffered Imprisonment for
years in the State Penitentiary, We
therefore ask that he be released
from custody, and granted the pardon

One of the most frequent and annoy
ing conditions that beset humanity is
Catarrh of Bile Ducts. There are sever
al little ducts leading from the Liver and
Gall Bladder that unite into one main or
Common Bile Duct" which carries the
bile and other fluid into the intestines.
When there is a Catarrhal condition of
thses ducts the whole system is affected
and all kinds of mean feelings are ex-
perienced. Ordinary liver pills and pow
ders fail to relieve this condition. An
eminent physician, a professor in Co.
lumbus, Ohio, Medical College, wrote
the prescription from which Rydale's
Liver Tablets are made, and they never
fail to relieve this very common condi-
ton. For Biliousness and Torpid Liver

well" and there was twinkle In the
judicial eye, I'll tell you what l know
about women in that connection and
perhaps you can figure it out for your
self If woman likes a lawyer or the
Judge or the defendant at the bar or
any one who happens to be related to
him, she will swear to anything that
she thinks will help him win his case.
Not purposely. certainly, but that's the
peculiar kink in a woman's mind.
Whatever she wants to believe she
does believe and honestly believes it to
be true, and the same is good of the
opposite proposition. If she dislikes a

bad for him. If she likes him, she
can't say anything good enough. Now,
