A procuress up in Ohio kidnapped
two American girls and had them
shut for several hours in room with
a number of Italian workmen. She
was sentenced to year in the work
house and fined 5000. If it had hap
pened in barbarous Florida, the pro-
curess and the Italians would proba-
bly, have been shut up in the house
and burned alive. We have our race
trouble, but the truth is that oul
women are safer from negroes than
women are from white men in many
northern states.

HEALTHY LIVER
MAKES BEAUTY
Famous Actress Finds that Healthy
Liver is Necessary to Good Looks
and YouthfuInesS

One of the best known women OF
the American stage is writing series
of articles on the preservation OF
beauty. She attaches great import
ance to keeping the liver active at all
times, and she is right. Neither good
looks nor happiness will stay long
with any man or woman who lets
the liver get lazy and sluggish.
1t is not always safe to take Gallo
mel, the old liver remedy. Doctors
agree that it is very uncertain drug.
But the Court Pharmacy has a rem
'edy for sale that they guarantee to
take the place of calomel absolutely,
and still be harmless, causing no re-
striction of habit or diet. This rem
edy is Dodson's Liver Tone.
Dodson's Liver Tone is a pleasant
tasting vegetable liquid, but 1t starts
the liver gently and surely and re-
lieves constipation and biliousness so
promptly that it has become a de-
pendable remedy in thousands of
homes in the United States. There
are scores of families in this vicinity
who will not be without it in the
house and who would nct think of
starting on a trip without a bottle
of it.
The Court Pharmacy has sold so
much Dodson's Liver Tone that they
are convinced of its merit and will
give any person his so cents back,
who buys a bottle and does not find
that it takes the place of calomel 10

Major Woodruff, in charge Of the

A slight break in the Beulah levee,
where a crevasse occurred in 1872

rock thrown against piles driven into

the water flowing through the gap.
Experts say now it will hold back the

warrant for his arrest. When Sheriff
Courtney assisted by BuTgmeister,
tried to serve the warrant. Collins
shot Courtney twice, killing him in
stantly. He then fired five bullets
into the body of Burgmeister, who
died a short time afterward.
The negro disarmed the fallen Of
iicers and with their weapons held
back the crowd, backing into the
brush, where he was surrounded and
captured.

people met the posse with cries of
lynch him, lynch him." but cooler
heads prevailed and the negro was
forced through the crowd 10 the Jail.
Later sentiment changed. The jail
was stormed and Collins lynched.
Collins came here two months ago
from the South.
