Rheumatism and diseases of the nerves are

the rheumatism gives you trouble.
Well, if your blood were analysed at such
times it would be found lacking in just such ele-

WILLIAMS TRIAL JANUARY II.

ATTORNEY GENERAL-ELECT OF VIR-
GINA WILL APPEAR AT HEARING.
The trial of Judge Samuel w. Will
liams, attorney-general-elect of Virgin
ia, indicted in Mcdowell county, w.
Va, for felonious assault upon Joseph
M. Sanders, has been set for Monday,
January II. Judge Williams, his
counsel, Mccormick, Hensen & Co., OF
Roanoke, and Col. w. E. Bibb, of
Louisa, will then appear at WEIGH.
1t is believed that fine for simple
assault will be the penalty inflicted on
Judge Williams. If he is convicted
of felony, as charged in the indict-
ment, it means that his office of attor-
ney-general of Virginia will be vacated.
The constitution of Virginia provides
that a citizen convicted of a felony,
within or without the State, loses his
citizenship, and vacates any Office he
may hold within the State Of Virginia.
1t is pointed out that Judge Williams
disabilities could be removed, and he
could be appointed by the governor to
the office he was elected to fill last fall.
Friends of Judge Williams are now
hopeful that the unfortunate affair will
be adjusted in manner that will not
embarrass him or Judge Sanders.
If the case come to trial, Judge
Williams attorneys will doubtless
move for change of venue on account
of the feeling in Mcdowell against the
defendant.
