Hangs Herself in Prison.

Louisville, Oct. 28.-Mrs. William
Llewellyn, aged 81, arrested on the
streets late Saturday night, commit
ted suicide by hanging in the jail
here yesterday. She used two-inch
wide strip from a blanket to suspend
hereslef from an iron sheet above the
door of her cell.
Shortly after the body was discov-
cred the woman's husband appealed
to the police for aid in finding his
wife, who he said, left home early
the previous night. He attributed
her act to brooding over the death
of her child, which had unbalanced
her mind. Lately he said she had
been drinking.
He told the police that recently
he made application to the county
court here for adoption of child, in
the hope of alleviating his wife,s de-
spondency, but had been refused on
the ground that his wife was not
competent to act as guardian of a
child.

SQUIRREL HUNTER LOST.
Searching Parties Scour Swamps for
w. W. Strong, of Mobile.

Mobile, Oct. 28.-Searching par
ties, numbering a score of well equip
ped men, are securing the swamps
Of Nigger Head Island, about 80
miles above this city, for w. w.
Strong, cashier of the Mobile Elec-
trio Company, who is lost somewhere
in the almost impenetrable morass.
Strong left this city on Saturday,
one of a party who planned to hunt
squirrels upon the island. Failing to
come into camp at the time agreed
upon, his companions started a
search, but up to an early hour this
morning they were unable to ~4ecate
Strong.
Another searching party was or
ganized here and left to-day for the
island. It is feared that Strong has
become begged in the marshes.

UNFAIR TO THE DRUGGIST
The Old Joke About "Something
Just as Good" Doesn't Apply to
This Drug Store.

You have probably heard dozens of
times the old story that drug store
was a place to 'get something just
as good.' There is at least one
druggist in the world that you can't
say this about.
1t is certain that an inferior article
will never be substituted for guar
anteed one by Peoples Drug Store;
Take for instance a safe, reliable
remedy for constipation and liver
trouble like Dodson's Liver Tone.
This harmless vegetable liquid has
proved so satisfactory liver stlmu-
liant and reliever of biliousness, and
to entirely take the place of calomel
without any danger or restriction OF
habits or diet, that there are dozens
of preparations springing up with
limitations of its cleans.
But Dodsons Liver Tone is guar
anteed to do all that is claimed TOR
it, and if you are not satisfied with
it, Peoples Drug Store will hand
your money back with a smile. Any
person going to this store for bot
tie of Dodson's Liver Tone will be
sure of getting large bottle of this
genuine remedy in exchange for his
half dollar.

Many Criminal Cases.

The criminal docket at the coming
term of court will no doubt be the
heaviest of any court since the form
alton of Bamberg county. There
are six murder cases to be tried, and
nearly dozen cases of assault and
battery, as well as other cases of
a more or less serious nature. If all
the criminal cases are tried it is
likely that the general sessions court
will consume most of the two weeks
allotted and that there will be little
time for the trial of civil causes.
However, some of the criminal cases
will likely-be postponed, but it is
practically certain that court will
continue the full two weeks and that
then many cases will have to be con-
tinued.

Burglars Rob Office.

New York, Oct. 2S.-Buglars en-
tered a branch Office of the Pruden-
tial Life Insurance company in
Brooklyn this afternoon, gagged the
cashier, Alice Brenneis with a hand
kerchief, saturated with chloroform,
left her lying bound upon the floor
and after looting safe escaped with
$500, money which collectors of the
company had brought in during the
the day.
The robbery took place about a
block from a station house in the
most heavily policed precinct in
Brooklyn and within few blocks OF
the home of Mayor Gaynor. Miss
Brennies recovered from the effects
of the chloroform.

Fire at Hunters Chapel.

Wednesday night Of last week the
residence of Mr.. A. w. Hunter at
Hunters Chapel was totally Destroy
ed by fire. Very little of the furni-
ture and other household goods
were saved. The fire was discover
ed little after eight o'clock, it orig
mating in the kitchen, and in few
minutes it had spread largely over
the residence, being famed by a
good breeze. Mr.. Hunter carried in
surance of $4,000 on the building
and contents, but this will not near
cover the loss. He says the loss on
furniture will be something like
$1,000, while the house would cost
something like $4,000 to replace. A
crowd of the neighbors gathered
quickly and by hard work all the
outbuildings were saved.

Turpentine Was Cruel Treatment.

Atlanta, Oct. 26.-Alleging that
her husband poured turpentine on
her body and made her lie in a bed
saturated with turpentine, Mrs. Bes-
sic Barnes has filed suit for total di-
vorce against L. C. Barnes, charging
cruel treatment. She says that her
husband came home only about five
nights out of every month, and that
when he did come he treated her so
badly that she finally began to fear
for her life.

MORE "BOOZE" AND TOBACCO.
Much Larger Consumption in the
United States During the Year.

Washington, Oct. 28.-The Ameri-
can people are drinking more whis-
key and beer and smoking more
cigars and cigarettes than ever be-
fore in history, according to tax re-
turns received by Royal E. Cabell,
commissioner of internal revenue.
From July l to October L, 1912,
more than 3,SOO,OO0,0OO cigarettes
were smoked, an increase of 1,000,-
100000 over the corresponding pc
riod of the previous year, which
broke all records.
The nation consumed 33,150,000
gallons of whiskey during July, Au-
gust and September, an increase Of
100000 gallons as compared with
that quarter Of 1911, while nearly l.
950,000 cigars were smoked during
that time. The cigar consumption
promises to establish a. new record.
A total of 19,S00,00O barrels of
beer were consumed during the three
months, which was 100000 barrels
more than in the same period of
1911. This somewhat surprised rev.
enue officials as beer drinking fell off
considerably during the fiscal year
ending June 80 last. That decrease
was partly accounted for by Commits
sioner Cabell by the increased popu-
larity of buttermilk as a summer
drink.
The growing consumption of these
articles has greatly augmented the
governments revenue. The internal
revenue receipts for October, already
more than 100000 greater than
October, 1911, will eclipse all rec
ords for any October, in the judg-
ment of Mr.. Cabell.

ing from typhoid fever, with a knife

her in self defense.
As.the woman lay on the floor, the
husband asserts she said to him:
well, George, you'd better fin
ism me- so he shot her again.

BEATTIE'S CHAUFFEUR IN TOLLS
Richardson, Who Took Car from
Jacksonville, Witness i'm Case.

Atlanta, Oct. 2S.-C. H. Richard
son, the young man arrested last
week on the charge of stealing an au-
tomobile from DR.. Drew, of Jackson
vile, Fla, at one time was chauffeur
for Henry Clay Beattie, the young
Virginian who murdered his wife and
was executed in the electric chair
after a noted trial. Though Rich
ardson was not in the employ of the
wife murderer at the time, he was
summoned to Richmond as a witness.
A reward of 500 will come in
handy to Plain Clothes Officer w. R.
Adams, who found the car and made
the arrest, following telegram re-
ceived at headquarters from Jack
sonville that the car was headed for
Atlanta. C. V. Turner, of Jackson
vile, and w. R. Chappell, of 210
Plum street, were in the car, and
both were afterwards apprehended.
ALI ILL hOA WAAA w (e1ASh "
Florida for trial. The automobile is
still at headquarters, and under the
back seat was found the Florida tag,
1921" Jacksonville. But the nu
neral one had been covered with a
piece of tire tape to make it read
"92," and in this manner the car
escaped through Florida. It bore
an old Georgia tag when found.
Richardson is now in the theatri-
cal business in Jacksonville. He
claims that he intended to return
with the car, and believes he can
make it all right with the insurance
company which will have to pay the
reward.
The officers at headquarters do not
believe Richardson's story, and have
a letter, signed Red" by which he
was known, to an Atlanta party, say
ing that he had the car, and begging
for money to pay for gasoline for use
on the way up.

Missionary Items.

The Protestant churches of Ameri-
ca, through the home mission coun-
Gil and council of women, have uni
ted in an educational program for
home mission week, Nov. 17-24,
1912.
1t is planned, during this week,
to create an interest throughout the
nation in the problems that now
confront the church and country.
The great aim of home mission
week is to impress upon every church
member the truth that the church
is equal to the situation, and,
through it's agencies, the home mis-
sion, board, the work of saving
America can be done.
The ninety days preceding this
time are to be days of preparation
and active campaigning.
The women's societies are endeav-
oring to bring all the women of the
churches into their bands.
Study circles are being projected.
Every society should. have at least
one study circle thoughtfully> pray
erfully unitedly, studying the great
problems that confront our nation.
The State home mission confer
ence that recently met at Orange
burg was very successful and help
full meeting. It was time of gath
ering inspiration and help for an
other year.
The district banner was won by
Orangeburg district, and the Bam-
berg society proved to be the banner
organization among the home mis-
sion societies of the Methodist
church in the State. Bamberg work
ers feel encouraged, and hope to
make greater advances another year.

the assault and murder of a young
woman here recently.
Gov. Brown declared martial law
and more than a hundred State
