Greeley Dogs Unmuzzled.

Denver.-A Greeley dispatch says:
The order issued April 23rd by Mayor
Green to chain or muzzle all dogs was
rescinded July 9th. 1t is believed that
the precaution saved injury and per-
haps lives, for during the last three
months twenty dogs have died from
rabies in this locality and nearly as
many have been shot because of show
ing symptoms of the disease The rab-
les started from mad coyote.

TILLMAN ON HEARST.
''Glad that the Light Has Been Turn
ed on the Commercial Democ-
racy Gang in this State.

Washington. October Ex-senator
and Mrs. Tillman arrived in Wash
ington last night en- route home, al
ter an absence Of five months IN Eu-
rope. When seen at his hotel this
morning. Senator Tillman vas sur
rounded by half a dozen or more
newspaper men and other friends who
had called to welcome him home. and
to get his views on the presidential
campaion and other matters.
Senator Tillman is naturally very
deeply interested in the outcome of
the presidential election, and al
though he has been absent, and not
in close touch with the management
of the campaign, yet his general
knowledge Of the situation leads him
to believe that Bryan will be the next
president of the United States. He
does not intend to enter the cam
paign, but will rest from his travels,
and be ready for the approaching ses-
sion of congress in December.
To fhe News and Courier cores
pondent the senator said that he had
read the Archbold and McLaurin dis
closures. and that the light had been
turned at last on to the acts and do
incs of the commercial Democracy
gang" With unusual vigor the SEN
ator said: "What 7 would like to
know now. is this. what newspaper
in the State received any portion Of
that five thousand dollars from the
Standard Oil. and why is it.. the. dif-
ferent detective editors within the
State have not taken the trouble to
ascertain what newspaper supported
the commercial Democracy gang
and publish the list so that the peo-
nle conld know who the beneficiaries
were.'
Cont :nuing, he said: "Certain
newspapers have been very vigilant
in 'raking up past records. Now let
them come forward and give the peo-
pie the names of the bobtail papers
in the State that were KNOCKING at
the doors of the Standard Oil treas
ury for fabrication. Had it not
been for the unexpected death of
President Mckinley it would be diff
cult to say just now much harm would
have been done to the Democracy of
the State by the sleuth-like editors
of South Carolina so long as they
were receiving Substantial support. .

NEWS OF PROSPERITY.
Serious Runaway-Drug Store Bur

Prosperity, October 22.-Pros-
perity has had several eanal-
ties recently. On Saturday morning
a dreadful accident occurred to Quat-
tlebaum & Langford's reaper and
four-horse team. About 500 yards
from the public square the horses be-
came frightened and the driver lost
control of them and away they
charged for the stables. Three horses
were of one mind and tried to turn
to the left Of the well, but the fourth
horse, which belonged to Mr.. ?. L.
Langford. meant to 60 straight
through town. The one horse jerked
the reaper to the right, striking the
we'll and throwing the driver high in
to the air against a telephone post
which he fortunately had presence OF
mind to catch around. The driver
escaped entirely llnscratched, much
to the surprise Of the bystanders. The
reaper was considerably bent, but not

inc If a misdemeanor to fish IN the
lake without paying heavy fee.
Fearing trouble Capt. Rankin and
Col. Taylor had remained away from
the vicinity Of the lake for some time.
Recently, however, they heard that
the feeling against them had some
what subsidized. The attorneys went
to Walnut Log yesterday to see
about some legal papers.
No positive information has come
direct from the searchers for Col.
T:vlor or his body. but several per-
sons. who Lave come to Union City,
say that up to 5 o'clock this after
noon no trace Of Col. Taylor had been
found.
A man named Powell is said to
have been forced to accompany the
mob, which numbered about 80 mem
bers. Powell had been stopping at
the hotel, and when the riders called
every one out and compelled them to
line up, Powell, Col. Taylor, Capt.
Rankin and the surveyor, whose name
is unkonwn, are said to have been
taken away.
Powell states, it is said, that after
killing Rankin a vote was taken re-
garding the disposition to be made Of
Taylor. During the dispute Taylor
made a dash and jumped into the
bayou, starting to swim across it. A
number Of shots were fired at him,
and in the confusion Powell slipped
away and brought back the story
of the escape or attempted escape of
Taylor.

DIsPENsARY PROFITS.
Sales for the Three-quarters of the
Year Aggregate Over Two and a
Half Million Dollars.

Columbia, October 21.-The dis
pensary sales in this State for three
quarters of the year have exceeded
two and a half million dollars, and as
the last quarter Of the year is the
largest in point of volume of busi-
ness, the sales will likely amuont to
three and a half million dollars for
the entire year. There are only twen-
ty-three out Of the forty-one counties
which have dispensaries, the sales for
the new county Of Calhoun being in
cluded in Orangeburg in this state
ment. Yet in twenty-three counties
the dispensaries do a busines in ex-
cess Of that Of the State dispensary
when it was at its zenith-or so the
official figures=say.
The profits for the three-quarters
Of 1908 are more than a naf million
dollars 1862, ,226.7l-to be exact.
This is also in excess of the profits
Of the State dispensary system, both
comparatively and actually. For the
three-quarters Of the year the dispen-
saries have made an average profit
of IS per cent, which is very good
indeed for any business.
For the third quarter Of the year
the sales have reached the sum Of
S919,269.26, and the profits amount
to $212.862.39. The last quarter will
exceed this in gross sales and proba-
bly, in profits, as the Christmas trade
is to be included in the fourth quar-
ter.

ON TWENTIETH CENTURY FARM
Bathroom for Pigs Looked Upon as

Yes, the modern pig bathes,' he
said. With squeals of rage and dis
gust ne tumbles once a week into a
hot BATH and is thoroughly scrubbed
with stiff brushes dipped in strong,
soft soap. This cleanliness keeps him
always well, and it increases his

baths cause him to fatten a fifth bet

only food 1t can eat from the peculiar
shape of it's mouth. 1t has an enor-

If You suffer from Headache

Many suffer needlessly from head
ache 1t is not normal condition and
unless due to some functional disorder
or to defective eyes usually can be
traced to overeating or to sleeping in
badly ventilated rooms
BE careful about your diet, take
plenty of exercise, do not overstrain
your eyes; above all get plenty of
fresh air and your headaches are apt
to vanish.
Never sleep in a room that has not
pt least one window up high, winter
and summer. 1t will not do to ven
tilate from the next room or the hall;
what is needed is air fresh from out
