night Deputy Sheriff Miller captured
"Bub'' Harold, negro, who has been
wanted for several months upon two

to the swamp, the vigilant deputy in
hot pursuit. Harold succeeded in
eluding Mr.. Miller for the time being,
but the chase was kept up. He track
ed him to the home Of jim Bynum,
the brother of Ed Bynum, the notori-
GUS character who shot Sheriff Corley,
and there placed him under arrest.

The Chainranr.

The county chaingang is now locat-
ed near Cayce, where they are at
work on the old State road, leading
through the famous Hogabaa section
swamp. This piece of road is said to
have caused more trouble than any
piece of road in the county, and the
people of that section gladly welcome
the gang. Supervisor Langford stated
on Monday that the road was being
made 80 feet wide, which is amply
wide enough for all purposes. When
the gang has finished it's work it is not
thought that any trouble will be ex-
perienced in keeping up this section OF
road, as the people living in the neigh
borhood will most likely keep the
washouts filed in.

The RIGHT Way

The remarkable success of the
Globe Remedy company in conducting
their new method of advertising is
caused by two things. First, the won
derful merit contained in their medi
cines, and, second, by the fact that
this company knows that honesty and
fair dealings will always win it's way
and surmount all difficulties, and their
record here and elsewhere has proven
it. Globe Tonic is a positive cure for
indigestion. Constipation, Sick Head
ache. Nervousness, and all disorders
of the liver, kidneys, stomach and
blood. .
To prove this they do not ask you
to believe all they say, but they give
you freekaamples every day or sell,
for short time only, the regular 81
bottles for soc. (three bottles for
$1.25) and give your money back if
not as represented. 1896 Assembly

 Pensacola, Fla, Aug, 31-(SpeciaD Bar pilots were exonerated today in the investigation by, the board of pilot commissioners as to why 2 pilot was not taken out to a steamer ten days ago when that vessel arrived off the bar and signalled for three hours for a pilot to come out and bring the ves- sel into port. In the investigation 1t developed that when the signals were sent up, a gale of more than forty miles an hour was blowing with such heavy seas running that 1t was impos- sible to launch small boat from the pilot boat to put a pilot aboard the steamer. The pilots even stated that the seas were so high that 1t was dan gerous for even the steam pilot boat to attempt to go out into the Gulf and therefore they declined to make the attempt.
