Mrs. James Crooks, First ST., N. w., American
Fork, Utah, says. Il had kidney complaint for ten
years or more. Sometimes a twinge darted through
the small of my back and Ioften became SO helpless
that 1 was compelled to 60 to bed with my clothes
on. The attacks often lasted for days at a time
and I could not even stoop to put on my shoes.
My condition was certainly alarming. The secre-
tons from my kidneys were irregular in passage
and contained a heavy sediment after standing. l
we'll know what the misery kidney complaint
causes and 1 can therefore appreciate the merits
of a remedy that cures this disease. Doans
Kidney Pills lived up to the claims made for them
in my case and effected a cure. My kidneys were
restored to a normal condition and my health
greatly improved" Statement given Aug. 81, 19o7)
On Aug. "a, 1909, Mrs. Crooks was interviewed
by one of our representatives and she said TT
gives me pleasure to reendorse Doan's Kidney
Pills. They cured my backache and my health
is now good. Other members of my family have
taken this remedy with decided benefit"

J. R. Black, 1905 E. Sixth street, Topeka.
Kansas, says: In the spring of 1899 Doans
Kidney Pills brought me such great relief that 1
did not hesitate to make the fact known and give
this remedy my most earnest endorsement. In
my statement / said that for three years / had
suffered from kidney complaint. / had a dull
%grumbling ache across the small of my back that
greatly inconvenienced me when reaching and
straining in doing my work, An annoying kidney
weakness was also in evidence and it was out of
the question for ne to sleep well. In the morning
l was all tired out and it can be seen that / was
in bad shape. The use Of Doan's Kidney Pills
quickly and surely drove away these symptoms of
kidney complaint and I have since been in good
health.
The foregoing statement was given in March
1905. and when Mr.. Black was interviewed on
Nov. IL. 1908, he said: Il have never had a
return attack of kidney complaint and | know that
my cure is a permanent one. My faith IN Doan's
Kidney Pills is stronger than ever.

OAKWOODS MAN KILLED
Negro Who Did the Killing Was
Hustled Off to Palestine to
Prevent a Lynching.

Late yesterday at Oakwoods a white
man named George Williams was shot
and killed by negro named Allen
Tubbs. The negro was captured just
before train time last night, and was
hustled on to Palestine, to prevent a
threatened lynching.
1t seems that the prisoner was
working for Williams on a convict
bond, and had run away Williams
and another man went after the fugi-
tive, got him, and started back to
Oakwoods with him, when the negro
in some way secured Williams pistol,
jumped from the buggy in which the
three men were riding-the negro in
the middle-and began shooting at the
two men. Williams started in pursuit
and ball struck him square on the
chin, passed through his neck, break.

then fought a pistol duel, but neither
were hit.
The affair created a great deal Of
excitement at Oakwoods, and lynch
ing would have undoubtedly resulted

delightful time until we started home,
when our troubles began. We were
about four miles out from Matagorda
when our boat got on reef and stuck
fasf about noon. We stayed with it
till about p. M, when a gasoline
oyster boat from Palacios came along
and the man in charge said he could
take us in, so we concluded to load
the HOLSTERS" on with the oysters and
the eight of us got aboard this boat
after rocking around an hour or so in
slliffs. Then the journey began again,
but our jonah got in his work the Sec
ond time. After about one mile had
been covered the gasoline engine
stopped on us, and then the Palestine
Houston crowd got busy. The orders
| were not given in usual terms, but
were obeyed just the same. 'Old
Sleuth" was appointed assistant pilot,
and his orders were like this: Boys,
| pitch that anchor out" and after what
! seemed hours, the engine got busy.
Boys, pull up that anchor" Boys,
get to the pump" and this is where
Ben Jackson shines. He is sure
enough pumper. Herbert Williams
held the lamp for the captain to work
on his engine, but during all the ex-
citing times he had a red striped
Indian blanket on from the top of his
head down. John Worley got sick and
wished for some of his bad accounts
to cast out. R. j. Wallace lost his hat,
and from the course it took l think it
landed about Dog Island. Nip
lO'Connor and the Caliph of Smooth
] haH[ were Johnnie-on-the-Spot with
| the anchor. They kept it busy from
there to Matagorda, and when our
boat ran onto some logs, with such
force that caused our engine to stop
and a general shake-up of everything
on deck, especially the minds of the
passengers to make them believe that
they were going to be lost, then Mr..
R. J. Wallace came to us with these
consoling words: Boys, don't be
frightened, for all of us are fully COW
cred by insurance, and we would be
worth more to our families dead than
alive About 10 p. m. we ran in on
the small boats at the wharf, and we
could find no way to get out but to
get back in the boat or climb over a
house. We climbed the house, and
were happy at 2:15 a. m. Sunday. We
left for home, singing, I'VE are going
to leave home no more" Nothing else
exciting occurred.

REPORT OF GRAND JURY
Nine Indictments on Felony Charges
and Twenty indictments For
Misdemeanors.
The following report was handed in

The following report was handed in

State of Texas, County of Anderson.
In the District Court of Anderson
county, Texas, November term, A. D.
1909.
To the Hon. B. H. Gardner, Judge of
the Third Judicial District:
We, the grand jury, empanneled,
sworn and charged by your Honor, to
diligently inquire into and true pre-
sentiment make of all violations of the
criminal laws of this state, commit
ted in this county, respectfully report
that we have been in session twelve
days and have had before us many
witnesses from various parts of the
county. and after carefully examining
said witnesses, and due elaboration
have returned nine indictments for
violations of the criminal law of the
grade of felony, and twenty bills OF
indictment for violations of the Grim
fnal law of the grade of misdemeanor
We have, according to your Honor's
instructions, investigated, to the best
of our ability, every case reported to
this grand jury. We examined the
finance ledger and found same in good
condition. We find also that the es
tray records are in good. condition.
While we find no violations of the
pension laws, we understand thai
some applicants are disposed to put
very liberal construction on same, ant
some apply for and endeavor to secure
pensions who are not legally entitled
to receive a pension. Quite a little
portion of our time has been consumed
in investigating violations Of minol
laws, which should have been looked
after by the precinct officers, who
should not wait and expect the grand
jury to work up these misdemeanor
cases, and then dump them into their
laps. We find that a vat house used
for curing green hides, of the nature
of nuisance, has been operated and
maintained until recently within the
city limits of Palestine, which we are
informed caused much serious sick

Strange Story Told About Colonel
James Gordon's War Record.

Strange Story Told About Colonel
James Gordon's War Record.
Sought at one time by the federal
authorities under a $4,000 reward for
his capture, dead or alive. for his al
legged part In the conspiracy that re-
suited in the murder Of president of
the United States and now appointed
as a member of the highest legislative
body of that country is the strange e1-
perience of Colonel James Gordon of
Okolona, Miss, who has been named
senator by Governor Noel OF Missis-
sippi as successor to the late Senator
A. j. McLaurin.
Mr.. Gordon was enc OF several Con-
federate leaders suspected Of being Ia
conspiracy with J.. Wilkes Booth to
kill President Abraham Lincoln. He
escaped arrest and probably death only
by the Intervention. it is stated, of q
Yankee colonel with whom he had
crossed swords in fight in Virginia.
During the earlier years of the war
Colonel Gordon had formed an init
mate friendship with Booth, and after
the assassination of President Lincoln
the reward of $4,000 was offered for
his capture. Colonel Gordon went to
Canada, and it was several months
after the close of hostilities before he
found 1t safe to return home
During one of the campaigns in Vir-
ginia Colonel Gordon had crossed
swords with the colonel of New York
cavalry regiment Both were wounded
in the conflict, but they afterward be
came fast friends.
Colonel Gordon wrote letter to this
New Yorker, denying that he had any
part In the conspiracy and stating that
he desired to return home. The for
mer foe took the matter up with Cen
eral Dix, then in command of the army
forces In New York, and the latter
sent him a passport and an invitation
to come to New York and surrender,
which he did. He =afterward satisfied
General Dix that he knew nothing of
the Lincoln conspiracy.
He took the oath of allegiance and
returned to his home In Chickasaw
county, where he has since resided. =
