"About year and half ago"

and kidneys were so affected that l
was forced to quit work. I had been
working night shift on an Akron pa

a change of hours would help me, but
without avail. I was taking medicine
continually, and had first one doctor
and then another but kept getting
worse. Every time a friend suggested
a remedy I tried it, until at last some
one recommended The Reese Formula
R-11. By this time I had given up
hopes but began taking The Reese

in it or anything else. Imagine my

CASULTY LIST
NOT COMPLETED
Two White Men Killed and Negro
Lypched- Clash in Florida.

Orlando, Fla, Nov. 3.-The full
casualty list of Ocoee, IL miles from
here where two white men were
shot to death and one negro lynched
yesterday in an election riot and
several negroes perished when the
buildings in which they sought shell
ter were burned and not reached
here tonight. Armed white men
were reported patrolling the region
and closing in on negroes who fled
to the woods, the pursuit being ac-
;companied by intermittent firing.
More than 20 buildings in the
negro settlement were burned Re-
ports from Ocoee tonight said that
explosion of considerable amount OF
ammunition occurred as the flames
swept the buildings and that num-
erous fire arms were found in the
ruins later. Some reports said five
negroes died in the flames. One ne
gro woman was among these, it was
said but no children.
The battle was precipitated by at
tempt of July Perry, a negro to vote
after he had been refused the priv
ilege by election judges on the
ground that he had not paid his poll
tax. He returned later armed with
a shot gun but it was taken from
him and he was driven away.
After dark last night, according
to reports from the scene, Perry
again approached the polls accom-
panied by a number of other ne
groes. The white citizens at once
formed posse and dispersed the
negroes who fled to the negro settle
ment. The posse followed and wit
nesses said the negroes opened fire
from the building. A member of the
posse was wounded, but reinforce
ments arrived and it proceeded
when the firing became general.
The attackers centered on Perry's
house intent upon arrest. Two OF the
white men, Leo Bogard and Elmer
McDaniels, both former soldiers,
were killed in the back yard OF the
house, their bodies being found
hours later.
A negro said seven or eight arm
ed negroes were in the Perry house
which ultimately was set on fire to
dislodge them, the flames spreading
to ther buildings.
Perry himself apparently was cap
utred and later taken by a mob and
lynched. It was stated tonight that
he was taken from an automobile in
which he was being carried to the
iail after having been treated at a
hospital. Details of his capture were
lacking.
