Receipt That Cures Weak
en---Free
Send Name and Address Today
You Can Have 1t Free and Be
Strong and Vigorous.

I have in my possession a prescrip-
ton for nervous debility, lack of
vigor, weakened manhood, falling
memory and lame back, brought on
by excuses, unnatural drains or the
follies of youth, that has cured so
many worn and nervous men right
in their own homes-without any
additional help or medicine-that
think every man who wishes to re-
gain his manly power and virility,
quickly and quietly, should have a
copy So, have determined to send
copy of the prescription, free Of
charge, in a plain, ordinary, sealed
envelope, to any man who will write
me for it.
This prescription comes from a
physician who has made special
study of men, and 1 am convinced it
is the surest-acting combination for
the cure of deficient manhood and
vigor-failure ever put together.
| think l owe it to my fellow man
to send them copy in confidence,
so that any man, anywhere, who is
weak and discouraged with repeated
failures may stop drugging himself
with harmful patent medicines, Sc
cure what, I believe is the quickest
acting, restorative, upbuilding, SPOT
TOUCHING remedy ever devised, and
so, cure himself at home quietly and
quickly. Just drop me a line like
this: DR.. A. E. Robinson, 4705 Luck
Bldg, Detroit, Mich, and l will send
you a copy of this splendid receipt,
in a plain, ordinary sealed envelope,
free ofcharge.

ALMOST LIKE A
MINING BOOM
THE RAPID TRANSFORMATION
OF LAND IN THIS VALLEY AND
THE APPRECIATION OF VALUE
SIMILAR TO MINING EXCITE
MENT.

Many people in this valley have
spent months in boom mining camps,
where strikes have been made, new
locations filed on and fortunes made
in a day. A man who is familiar
with the operations in boom min
ing camp said that the present activ-
ity in irrigated lands in this valley
this spring reminded him very much
of a mining camp.
He cited as an illustration the his
tory of one large tract. Within the
past nine months Talbot & Conner
sold a 100 acre tract near George
FarwelTs place west of the city. This
tract sold for 500 per acre, or &c.
900. These purchasers sold off the

tract in 10, 20 and 40 acre subdivi-
sions for 5000 an acre. George S.
Lee secured one of these 40 acre
tracts and after planting it to trees
he has about completed the sale OF
all of the land at from $500 to $500
per acre. These sales all have been
very reasonable and leave big mar
gin for appreciation in values to the
new purchasers. This is but the his
tory of one large tract, and hundreds
of others could be cited, showing the
same marvellous appreciation in val
ues.

RIDERS AFTER
EDITOR THOMAS
|sEND THREATENING LETTERS
DEMANDING PUBLICATION OF
CERTAIN DOCUMENTS.

TIPTONVILLE, Tenn, Aug. 10
Mr.. Richard Throgmorton Of the
Fourth district, Lake county, was III
town Monday and reports that he
very much fears that the night riders
have been again active near his home.
He saws the negro farmers are show
ing uneasiness, and while none OF
them will talk, he thinks they have
been receiving intimidating messages.
A great many are selling out and pre-
paring to move. Quite number have
already moved Mr.. G. G. Thomas,
editor of the Lake County News has
been the recipient of very threatening
letters in the last two weeks, threaten
ing death unless certain statements
were published in his paper, and
claiming that the night riders had
now become one thousand strong
since their victory in the supreme
court. 1t is threatened that the
riders" will again resume active OPP
erations before the last of August.
Quite a number of old members OF
the Lake county posse that were with
the soldiers at Camp Memo just after
the murder of Capt. Rankin were in
town, and while no undue excitement
prevails yet, all express belief that
the situation will be easily and speed
lily handled, and in cool, deliberate
manner. The recent developments
have been referred to the federal au-
thorities, and in the meantime private
citizens are doing little detective
work. There are quite a number OF
suspects and they are being closely
watched

that this movement is not hostile to
any one, and is not an attempt to get
mn a new organization in the state OF
anv of it's localities. The invitation
will be to men interested in the demo-
cratic party, not to men holding ON
ces or to men DESTROYS of getting ON
ces.
The democratic party in this state
has been steadily losing ground be-
cause it has not been taking any posi-
tive stand on policies. 1t has always
waited for republicans. That policy
is ruinous, because it does not com
mand any respect from any one, and
shows that as a party it has not the
courage of conviction. 1t is our hope
that by drawing up certain positive
principles far in advance of a state
campaign, people will know what the
party represents, just as they did
when it elected Mr.. Cleveland"

NEW STATIONS
FOR MEMPHIS
AT TIE COMMAND or THE STATE
COMMISSION BUILDINGS WILL
BE ERECTED.

MEMPHIS. Tenn, Aug. 7.-Repre'
sentatiyes of all railroads in the Mem
phis Terminal Company unanimously
agreed late Friday. in private confer
ence. that there was no hope OF recon
CLING the opposing roads, and author
lied President Albert w. Biggs TO
notify the state Railroad Commission
that a union station would not De
erected in Memphis. The railroads
which opposed the movement and
which caused an abandonment OF the
original plans are the Louisville and
Nashville and the Nashville, Chatta-
nooga and st. Louis railroads.
Under the ultimatum issued by the
State Railroad Commission, to which
the city of Memphis had appealed It,
an effort to force the six railroads run
ming into the city to erect union sta
ton. and which called a meeting OF
the officials of the roads here, one
mlSJ De Dulll vi AaNS
must be at once erected, equipped and
maintained, adequate to the demands
of the city. 1t is now regarded as
probable at least two, possibly three
new stations win be erected as re-
suit of the failure of the union depot
plan.
1t is understood that the Illinois
Central. Yazoo and Mississippi Valley
and the 'Frisco-Rock Island systems
will erect one station, the two roads
which opposed the union station a Sec
ond station, and possibly third will
be erected by the Gould lines, namely,
the Iron Mountain, the Cotton Belt
and the Union railway.
Steps will now be taken by the
State Railroad Commission and the
city authorities to force the railroads
into building separate stations at once.
