NEGRO PEND THWARTED
ATTEMPTS RAPE NEAR BAY MIN.
 ETTE--Is CAUGHT.
Young Daughter of A. w. Wilson Was the Intended Victim of Brute.
 Feeling High, Hut No
 Trouble Anticfpated.

Bay Mfnette. Nov. Io--(Special.) .)-- Henry Brown. also known as John Powman. negro. tried to rape the l7-year-old daughter of A. w. Wilson. about Il o'clock yesterday, near the girls home, one and one-half miles from Blackshear. Brown was caught soon after and Is In jail here.
 The negro was employed by ]. T. Wilson. an uncle of the girl in a tur- pentine camp. and in some way left on purpose to commit the deed. 1t Is be- lieved.
 He first tried to find his victim in a small church near there. and not find- ing her. he caught her about 800 yards from her home. The screams of the frantic. girl brought her mother at once. to the rescue. and on seeing her, the brute ran before accomplishing his fiendish act. The girls clothes were nearly torn on. in her frantic efforts to escape.
 The girls father, A. W. Wilson, and her cousin. were soon in pursuit and caught the negro about five miles from Blackshear.
 He was then brought to the home of J. T. Wilson. who had him chained and locked to a large iron safe. He Nsays he sat up all night watching him so escape would be impossible. and tuls AhoEtiiH& uIpukHk ntM 10 BAY Minette and lodged him in the county jail. pending Q preliminary hearing.
 J. T. Wilson runs q large turpentine business near Blackshear. and employs about seventy-fiye negroes. He states this Is the first trouble he has had with his men during the time of eight years while in the turpentine business.
 Brown claims his home to be in Greenville and has mother living there. He used to work for several years for Bob Caftrett. who is in the livery business here. and was recog- nized by him as Brown. He has been working for J. T. wilson for about six weeks. and has been In some trouble before.
 Feeling. against the negro ran high. where the attempt of rape occurred. and only through the efforts of J. T. Wilson he was allowed to bring him to Bay Minette. Sheriff Booth thinks there will be no disturbance or attempt to lynch him here. and says he will be in safe keeping in the jail. where he cannot get out.

 sMy daughter-in-law Is now taking it. and all my neighbors think 1t is fine"
 cardui may be taken year after year, at times when its benefit is needed. and as general tonic. without any bad after effects whatever.
 Many drugs. like quinine. acetani- lfde. iodide of pitassium, etc, cannot be so taken, without doing you more harm than they do you good.
 Be careful what you put into your stomach, as lasting injury frequently results from the regular use of pow erful drugs and medicines.
 Cardui cannot possibly do you any, thing but good. as it, Is a mild, gentle tonic. of purely vegetable ingredients. non-mineral. notwithstanding, nom poisonous-harmless to young and old
 Thousands of ladies have testified to the beneficial results that come from the use of Cardui, the woman's tonic.
 It strengthens. builds. restores. and relieves or prevents unnecessary pain and suffering.
