ACLERGYM STORY
Came Near Losing His Lfe--How He Escaped

We quote from another letter. dated
December 10. 1906: IL praise Peruna
to all the sick. The people know
my case, and they praise it also"
In n letter dated November 22.
1909, we quote Rev. Roberts: "Pe-
runa gave me back my life ten
years ago. All my acquaintances
know that. l am certainly thankful
to you for your kindness"
In a later letter, dated January 13.
1910, he says: Il shall ever in the
future, as in the past. be ready to
speak in praise of Peruna to all suf-
ferers. l believe my miraculous cure
has been the means of many others
being cured in this county"
From letter of September 5, 1911.
we quote a few words: Il am still
among the living. AS to Peruna,
do not feel that l have words to ex-
press the faith have in it's merits.
I feel that Peruna has been the
means, through the kind providence
of God, of prolonsing my life for
more than ten years"
We quote a still later letter, October
81, 1912. He says: 81 took a severe
cold three weeks ago. l at once sent
for Peruna. Have been taking it two
weeks. | am now better. l consider
that Peruna has carried me over a
dozen years of life. / always stand
ready TO answer any question in ref
erence to Peruna."
We quote from his last letter, dated
January ., 1913: Dear Friends:
wish this bright New Years to ex-
press my thanks TO you for your
kindness. Trusting that you may
have a successful and happy year and
that your medicine may prove a
blessing to many as it has to me, L
am yours as ever. G. w. Roberts.

II is not necessary for us to add
any words TO this story. The elo-
quence and pathos of these letters
are more convincing than arguments
or adidavits. Who can doubt the
clergyman's story? Who can doubt
that Peruna saved his life?

Twenty five armed men appeared at

morning and overpowered the warden

offered
Communications Cut
The mob placed him in an auto and
hurried him away. The alarm was
given and search was made in the
darkness by auto parties.
1t was found that the telephone wires
had been cut preventing communi.
cation with the authorities of neigh.
boring counties.
Was Hung to Tree
All efforts to head off the lynchers
were without avail. They took him to
point near the home of Mary Phagan,
and hung him on tree.
Was Drencl.ed With Blood
The body of Frank when found was
drenohed with blood which flowed from
the wound in his neck made in the
recent attack upon him by q fellow
convict at the prison farm. Indications
are that the wound was torn open by
the violence Of assault, and the blood
permitted to flow before the hanging

Many Were Mired in the Mud of the Awful
Roads
1t rained yesterday and today, and
the many automobilists who left the
city on the sociability run are now
aware of the fact. Eleven cars left
from Lead, joining the Deadwood CON-
tingent at Pluma and proceeding on
toward Hill City and Sylvan lake. All
of the cars reached Sylvan lake in
safety, but all of them did not reach
Lead in time for supper last night,
breakfast this morning nor dinner this
afternoon. Just three cars arrived in
the city from the run, and they were
those of Munson, Laurence and COOL
idge. All of their drivers report that
the roads we're in a most execrable con-
dition, and that In one place the heav-
lest of the cars had to be pulled out of
the mire by teams; that the mud was
up to the beds Of the cars and that
where the roads showed even sug-
gestion of dryness they were so rough
that the drivers Of the oars had to OK
ercise the greatest of caution. It was
q rough trip, according to those who
have arrived in the CITY, and they say
that it is doubtful if any of the other
cars will arrive today, especially as It
has begun to rain again. Those who
have arrived in safety and on time say
that they would not take the trip again

Solicitors at Tr"ins And on Streets Should
Be Controlled
First Impressions are generally last
ing and for this reason one of the evils
that is praotioed on the visitors to this
city 1t So ms to US should be abated.
The first impression many people have
Of this city as soon as they step off the
trains at the depot is that they have In
some way landed In the center of a
pack Of wolves and that they are legit-
innate prey to be torn in shreds.
In our work we visit the trains near
ly every morning and one sight that
always meets the gaze of any one as
soon as the passengers slight and one
that ie pitiful in many instances as
we'll as disgusting is the sight of from
ten to fifteen hotel solicitors attempt.

ular hostlery. People who have travel
ed somewhat coon get rid of these
pests but take anyone who is inclined
to be timid and life Is q burden for
them until they finally land In some
hotel. rooming house or other.
Should the person be robust enough
to break away from the flrst rush they
still have several leeches who wiA
follow them about the streets endesv-
oring to secure their baggage and thus
get them to follow them.
In several instances it has been the
practice of some Of these hotel run
ners to indulge in fist fights and other
practices among each other and some
day i: let go they will no doubt endeav-
or to practice this on the tourists.
1t is our impression that Hot Springs
has an ordinance prohibiting such
practice and II so the sooner It is en-
forced the better for everyone. II not
immediate steps should be taken to see
that some way of controlling these
people be put In force. Give them q
email square at the depot platform aDd
make them stay there. Otherwise the
matter should be taken up with the
railroad companies and they will
promptly act when the matter is fully
explained to them.
This is not written by reason of our
enmity for any of the hotels but for
the general good of the community for
what Hot Springs needs is visitors who
will come here and after being here
will either send for their friends or
will come again themselves. II this
practice is allowed to continue It is one
of the many ways of helping to kill the
city.
