From Wednesday,s Daily Sum:

From Wednesday, Daily sun:
Priestly Parker. the negro drayman
who was arrested Oh two separate
charges and released from custody on
bond. has skipped out and left his
bondsmen TO hold the lose end.
Priestly was at first arrested Charg
ed with assault with intent TO kill, but
after remaining in jail for about three
weeks he was released upon bond
for his appearance at the next term
OF circuit court. He had been out only
a short while when he was rear I.
ed upon a charge OF carrying con
cealed weapons. but in this case he
also gave bond for his appearance
at court.
After giving the last bond he At
once assumed his duties as Crlynian
and was apparently doing well until
the present week, when he sold out
his team and other belongings and
LETT the city,
Many Of the citizens believe that
he will return to face the charges. and
attribute his leaving TO the fact that
the negro who was shot is now up
and able TO get around and that Priest
was afraid that he would have further
trouble with DeBose and thought il
best to stay away until the time OF
his trial at the next term OF court.

The interesting discovery has been

would be to outlaw not only so-called

they were doing business az any other

The council had a hard time OF IL
trying to pass an ordinance that might
meet the local demand and at the
same time effect all in the same man
ner: but this new one Is so drastic
that IL is far from satisfactory and
number of those directly interested
stated Tuesday that they would follow
the State law and make a test case
of the matter.
A hotel man stated that IL would
he a hardship to the travelling men
who come here just 10 spend Sunday
to be deprived Of purchasing a smoke
on the Sabbath and he considered il
a most unreasonable law.
The revenue ordinance was also
taken up and passed upon it's second
reading. and there being a number OF
important changes IL is thought that
IL will also cause considerable discus
sion and some kicking among those
most affected.

Information as to the use Of alcohol
as a preservative IN soda fountain
syTups, therefore. had an interesting
bearing on the situation. Representa-.
tive Alexander was as docile as a lamb
during the entire session. and did not
once attempt to have his new prohi-
bition measure taken up.
The indications point to the fact
that the tendency now is to let the
whole matter drop.
Whether the discovery that its prob

OVER THE FENCE
Nei0hbor Says Something.

The front yard fence is q famous
council place on pleasant days. Maybe
TO chat with some one along the street,
or for friendly gossip with next door
neighbor. Sometimes it is only small
talk but other times neighbor has
something really good to offer.
An old resident of Baird, Texas, got
some mighty good advice this way
once.
He says:
Drinking coffee left me nearly dead
with dyspepsia, kidney disease and
bowel trouble, with constant pains in
my stomach, back and side, and so
weak l could scarcely walk.
One day Il was chatting with one of
my neighbors about my trouble and
told her l believed coffee hurt me.
Neighbor said she knew lots of people
to whom coffee was poison and she
pleaded with me to quit it and give
Postum a trial. l did not take her
advice right away but tried a change
of climate, which did not do me any
good. Then dropped coffee and took
up postum.
My improvement began immediate
ly and got better every day used

My bowels became regular in two
weeks. all my pains we're gone Now

of this is due to my having quit cot.

gestion thought that If Postum helped
me SO, it might nelp him. 1t did. too.
and he is now well and strong again.

CHAPTER XXI.
His Maie9ty'S Visit.

In the heart of the woods, untrodden
before by man, the sound of the ham,
mer awoke the German emperor after
his hours of anxious study. BY choice
he had declined to sleep in the radio
plane, and rolled himself in his blan-
kets on an open spot of turf. The cares
of the day were upon him again with
all their perplexities. The sun had not
risen, and the cool breath of the morn
ing came to his lungs with invigorat-
ing freshness, while bird of the far
north was beginning a thin piping to
its mate. and camp robber, brilliant
ly impertinent, hoped round his
woodland couch and gazed unabashed
at royalty.
He threw aside the blankets which
had been tightly rolled round him,
walked to the brook, whose song had
lulled him In his dreams of the night,
and bathed his hands and face in the
icy water. A great trout. disturbed
by the intrusion, sped swiftly away
from a rock and disappeared in a
dark pool with a final sweep of its
tail. The emperor dried his face on
his handkerchief and walked slowly
across the glade to the Norma, which
he entered curiously.
There they all were as on the night
before. tired. wOrk-worn and anxious,
the chancellor still with his sleeves
rolled up. the rear admiral stripped to
his undershirt and the engineer peer
ing through his glasses at the tangles
of wire. On the night before the
kaiser had stormed and threatened,
had mumbled angry soliloQuies. and
sworn mighty oaths to the unheeding
woods. Now at the sight Of these
faces before him he understood to the
full that these. his hosts, must have
labored throughout the night trying
to undo the accident which perhaps his
own hands had wrought. 1t softened
his mood.
They saluted him, and Brockton rose
stinly to his feet. wiped his hands on
his trousers, and repaired to the rear
Of the radioplane. from which he
alphabetically returned with breakfast
for his guest. The emperor ate with
an appetite which was made keen by
the balsamy night air in which he had
slept, and then began wishing that
he. too. might take part in this manual
toll. Almost involuntarily he assisted
the fat old chancellor, who was pry-
ing loose another board with a crow
bar; but he felt that he was in the
way. and after Longing round the
craft for a time decided that he would
have another look at the brook. 1t
was swarming with trout, and, half
ashamed of his zest, he returned to
the Norma, and, like boy preparing
to play truant, furtively secured, a
line. and attached it to a fly which he
had in his pocket book.
