DECATUR MAN HAS
 COTTON PICKER

Decatur, June 29.-(Special )-Maj. Hugh H. Mcconnell of Decatur has a patent cotton-picker which has been thoroughly tested and has proven a success in every respect. The picker was invented and patented by his brother, H. L. Mcconnell. The picker is operated by hand It is made of aluminium and weighs only about three pounds. A number of practical demonstrations have shown that with this little machine a small boy can pick from 800 to 1000 pounds of cotton day. The s30
 Major Mcconnell is now having the pickers manufactured in the east, and they will be placed on the market throughout the south early this fall in time for the first picking The main of flee of the firm will be located in Decatur and Mai Hugh H. Mcconnell will be the manager in charge.
 The picker Is simple in its construction yet effective in its operations Unlike most machines for picking cotton, this Is not suction machine. The lint as 1t comes into the machine passes through brushes which take off all dead leaves, dirt, etc The cotton then falls down into a sack attached to the machine, and the sack Is emptied as 1t becomes full.
 Cotton men who have seen the picker say 1t Is bound to prove a success. and they are of the opinion that there Is a fortune to be made in It's sale. Demon strations which were made by the ma chine In Mississippi last fall prove that 1t is success, and that 1t will do the work of from three to five hands in the cotton field

NEW RAILROAD RUMOR
Spot Is Found in South Tennessee Which Is Said To Be Immune From Prohibition Law of
 the State.

scottsboro, June Especially Charley N. Aston, the young man who mysteriously disappeared from his home at Stevenson last August upon charge of having misused the sum of $15,000 from the bank at that place of which he was cashier, was brought here last night from Seattle, We sh., by John D. Talley and immediately succeeded in making his bond. which was s5ooo. Mir. Aston belongs to one of the most prominent families in the county and was regarded by all who knew him as most trustworthy man.
 The little infant of MT. and Mrs. J. M. Moore died at their home at Bryant, near thls place, yesterday.
 There is rumor of new railroad to be built from Birmingham to Chat tanooga, probably the Louisville and Nashville. via the Sand mountain sec tion and Bridgeport. It was impos- sible to confirm this report, but in case such a road should be built it would not only open up a lot of valu- able territory in that section, but would give the city another outlet, giving three lines of railway.
 The people of Bridgeport are to have an independent telephone service In a short time.
 Located on the Cumberland plateau in Sequatchie county, only few miles from Dunlap, Tenn, w. P. Conger has discovered point which is outside the provisions of the prohibition law of Tennessee, which is to the effect that no liquor can be sold at any point in the state which is within four mIies of schoolhouse. It is stated that MT. Conger has leased the surround ing territory to prevent the prohibit tion forces from preaching on his preserves, and that shortly after July 1 he will open up a whisky distribut- ing point, making regular trips with hacks to surrounding towns. It is surprising to many that such 0 place exists Ill Tennessee but it Is stated that in counties of Union, Grainger, Han cock and Hawkins there are several places of this character. In order to be outside the provisions of the four mile law a place must at least be in the middle of a circle eight miles across containing no sch oolhouses in any d. rection.

HOw to Tell Whether Skin Affection Is m Inherited Blood Disease OF Not.

HOW to Tell Whether Skin Affection
 Is m Inherited Blood Disease OF Not.
 Sometimes it is hard to determine whether a skin affection Is sign or a blood disorder or simply form or eczema. Even physicians are often puzzled in their diagnosis. The pest way for any one afflicted Is to go to Jacobs Pharmacy, or any good drug gist who handles pure drugs and oo- tain 50 cents worth of poslam. Apply this, and if the itching stops at once and the trouble is cured in few oays it may be set down as having been eczema, as this is the way poslam acts in the worst cases of eczema, and ln curing acne, herpes, blotches, tetter 1, piles, salt rheum. rash, barbers ana other forms of itch, scaIy scalp and all surface skin affections.
 Anyone who will write to the Elmer ency Laboratories, No. S2 West Twenty fifth street, New York, can secure, py mail free of charge, supply sufficient to cure a small eczema surface or clear a complexion overnight and remove pimples in 24 hours.
