RO1HENBURG HURT
 IN COAL SLIDE

What might have been very serious accident was providentially averted this morning, when Oscor Rothenburg, who was engaged in unloading a carload of coal into the bunkers of the power plant, was shot through the car with a coal slide and escaped with few bruises only.
 A Roger ballast car filled with coal was on the elevated track at the back of the bunkers, and Roth enburg and helper were trying to unload it. The coal was to be dumped through the center of the car and the boards holding it were accordingly released
 Owing to the frozen state of the coal, the car did not dump as well as usual and Rothenburg got on top of the car to help force down the coal. The mass gave way suddenly and he was shot through the bottom of the car to the bunker below, but fortunately the surrounding coal held, or else the man might have been killed. He was buried almost up to the waist in the coal, but did not sustain more than a few bruises as result of the accident

 Says This Texas Lady.

Gonzales, Tex Mrs. Minnie Phil pot, of this place, writes: Five years ago I was taken with a pain in my left side. It was right under my left rib. It would commence with an aching and extend up into my left shoulder and on down into my back. By that time the pain would be so severe I would have to take to bed, and suffered usually about three days ...I suffered this way for three years. and got to be mere skeleton and was so weak I could hardly stand alone Was not able to go anywhere and had to let my house work go. I suffered awful with pain in my back and had the headache all the time. just was unable to do a thing. My life was a misery, my stomach got In an awful condition, caused from taking so much medicine l suffered so much pain. I had just about given up all hopes of our getting anything to help me.
 One day a Birthday Almanac was thrown in my yard. After reading its testimonials I decided to try Car dui, and am so thankful that I did, for I began to improve when on the second bottle. II am now a well woman and feeling fine and the cure has been permanent for it has been two years since my awful bad health. I will always praise and recommend Cardui." Try Carduf today. E 7S

MRS. BROWN A WELL
 WOMAN ONCE MORE
WAS CONFINED TO HER BED AND CHAIR FOR OVER TWO YEARS BEFORE TAKING TAN- LAC.

Some strange things happen in this world and the change Tanlac has brought about in my wife's con- dition is one of them," said J. L. Brown, resident of College Park, Ga.
 "For over two years," he contin- ued, "my wife had so much trouble with her stomach that she could hardly take any nourishment at all but a little milk diet, and she fell off till she was little more than a living skeleton. She got little rest or sleep at night, had no energy at all and was so weak and run down that most of her time was spent in bed or in a chair. lire skin was sal low and unhealthy looking and she didn't seem to take any interest in anything.
 In fact she was about as bad off as she could be to be alive when she started taking Tanlac, and just in a few bottles of this wonderful medi- cine have made her a we'll woman once more. She now eats anything she wants, sleeps lde a child, has gained twenty pounds and is able to do All her housework as we'll as she ever did"
 Tanlac is sold by all druggists.

Report of Commissioners of Accounts

Only $57.28 being reported as hav- ing been collected during that time. The sheriff states that the delin- quency in this respect is largely due to double assessments and absence from the county.
 In examining the jail accounts of the sheriff and the fees allowed for witnesses and jury service in the circuit court, we find a gratifying decrease in this particular. As to the county farm we find with an expenditure of $2,695.43, as shown by the Appropriation Books kept in the county clerks office as required, (from October 1, 1918 to April l, 1919) the county has receiv- ed of products in return, the sum of $227.50, as shown by report of the county judge handed us, and which we append hereto. Since making this report the county judge tells us he has about $500 due him for hogs sold to Chas. G. Taylor, which will be paid to him within few days. The balance of the credits, $1 ,093, on the statement rendered by the judge, is for fines collected from prisoners sent to the county farm. As will be noted from the statement rendered by the deputy treasurer of the county, there appears $4,S4S.09 to the credit of this institution, which with expenditures running as they have been for the past six months will leave the institution rather short of funds before the end of the fiscal year.
 We checked the county treasurer's books with that of the county clerk, and found them in accord with one or two minor discrepancies which were readily explained and adjust ed From statement rendered by Deputy Treasurer Allen we found the following amounts to the credit of the several funds as stated, which was affirmed by MT. Allen as being subject to withdrawal by the proper authorities:
 To the credit of interest account, $1 ,014.24.
 To the credit of general school fund, $247.99.

 At BLeUins Store

Blevins, April 8-RObbers who entered the general store of H. M. Stevens here last night escaped with total of $26,700 in cash, Lib- erty bonds, war savings stamps and notes. Tonight officers are still at work on the case but have found no clue. The robber or robbers made their entry through the back window and worked the combination on the safe. They secured $6,30C worth of Liberty bonds, $500 worth of war savings stamps, $20,000 in notes and S100 in cash. Only $50 of the cash taken by the thieves be- longed to Mir. Stevens. The remain ing $70 belonged to the postoffice. Miss Anna L. Bostick, postmistress, had placed the money in the safe be- fore leaving for home yesterday afternoon.
 Efforts were made soon after the discovery to obtain blood hounds from the state farm at Cummins, but after several unsuccessful att tempts the plan was given up and officers of Hampstead, Nevada, Mil Ter Clark, Pike and Little River coun- ties were notified and asked to watch for suspects. Evidently the men were experts at safe cracking, as the combination was worked suc- cessfully and without damage to the safe. All the notes, bonds, War Saw ings stamps and money, with the ex- ception of the $70 belonging to the postoffice, was the property of Mir. Stevens, who was unable to give any light on the robbery.
 So cussessful and carfeul were the robbers in their work that the loss was not discovered until early this morning when the store was opened for the day. No persons living in the vicinity of the store have re- ported to officers that they saw strangers about the building and it is not known what time of night the theft was committed
