One negro STAYS ANOTHER
IN YORK COUNTY LAST Week
HEZEKIAH COOK sent ON TO THE GRAND JURY BY
JUSTICE SCEIENCK


his half brother. Tom Bsrtlett. by
striking the latter on the head with
heavy stick last Friday night. Cook
gave himself up to Justice Schenck.
who held an inquest. admitting the
slayer to bail in the sum of $500,
after hearing the evidence in the
case. Cook was sent on to the
York county grand jury and the
case will be heard at the August
term.
The story told by Cook and cor
roborated by Maude Page. the
woman in the case" was as tol
lows: Cook was an officer of the
church and came to town to attend
a service in progress. Forgetting a
letter that was needed. he went back
to his home for it. He noticed that
he had lost a sum of money during
the journey aud went back TO search
for It. AS be came out of the
woods near the Page womsn's house.
he heard screams Cor help and saw
a man in the .semi-darkness attack
ing the woman. He had previously
picked up a heavy club during his
walk about the country and with this
he rushed up and struck the man
who was making the assault upon
the woman. Cook had no idea who
the man was but upon a closer ex-
animation found that it was his half
brother and that ne was dead from
the blow. When Cook struck Bart.
lett and he fell limp on the porch of
her home. she ran. but returned to
find Cook there. She saw a man
strike the alleged asSsilsnt. but
could not swear who it was. Cook
admits striking the fatal blow. but
denies that he knew who it was and
says he was simply defending a
woman. Bartlett skull was crushed
by the blow from the eavy bludg-
con in the hands OF MS kinsman and
death was instantaneous.
Bartlett was a negro preacher and
was married. He was in the en-
ploy of Mr.. Henri Mouquin who is
much wrought up over the death of
his servant whom he liked very much.
Bartlett accompanied the Page VIC
man home from church in Williams
burg and it is alleged was attempting
a criminal assault upon her when
Cook arrived upon the scene with
his club. 1t is also admitted that
Cook was an admirer of the woman
and it has been suggested that
Bartlett was killed by his half broth
er in a fit of jealousy. Cook is well
thought of among his neighbors,
white and colored. The confessed
slayer is said to be fearful Test the
members of his race. led by another
negro preacher. will lynch him. He
is so badly scared that he is spend
ing much of the time in the woods.
It is said that the case will be la:5
before the York authorities and an
attempt made to have Cook put in
jail till his trial.

SAGE TEA WILL
.DARKEN THE HAIR
Restore Faded and Gray Hair
TO Natural Color--Dandruff.
Quickly Removed.

: There Is nothing new about the idea of
using Sage for restoring the color of the
hair. Our grandmothers kept their hair
dark, glossy and abundant by the use of
q simple Sage Tea" Whenever their
hair fell out or took on a dull, faded or
streaked appearance, they made brew
of Sage leaves, and applied it to their
hair with wonderfully beneficial effect.
Nowadays we don't have to resort to
the old-time tiresome method of gather
ing the herbs and making the tea. This
Ii done by skillful chemists better than
we could do it ourselves; and all we
have to do Is to call for the ready-made
product, Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Hair Remedy, containing Sage in the
proper strength, with the addition of
Sulphur, another old-time scalp remedy.
This preparation gives youthful color
and beauty to the hair, and is one of
the best remedies you can use for dan
druf, dry, feverish, itching scalp, and
falling hair. Get fifty cent bottle
from your druggist today, and you will
be surprised at the quick results. All
druggists sell it, under guarantee that
the money will be refunded If the
remedy is not exactly as represented.
