When a cold hangs on as often
happens, or when you have hardly
gotten over one cold before you con-
tract another, look out, for you are
liable to contract some very serious
disease. This succession of colds
weakens the system and lowers the
vitality so that you are much more
liable to contract chronic catarrh,

ton Mill Village.

Lancaster, Oct. 25.-Policeman
Conner Of the Lancaster cotton mill
village this morning shot and almost
instantly killed Doc Bailey, an en-
plOye Of the cotton mill. Conner had
arrested Bailey some time previous
to the shooting on the charge of
drunkenness and disorderly conduct
and this morning was set for the trial.
When Conner went for Bailey this
morning in order to bring him before
the court it is said that Bailey upon
seeing the policeman approaching,
secured his shotgun and covered him
with it. He is said to have attempted
to shoot the officer, swapping the gun
twice which failed each time to go
off, Conner pulling his pistol in TIE
meantime and firing three shots into
Bailey's body. Conner was placed
under arrest but was released this
afternoon on bail in the sum of 900
granted by Judge Moore.
