nesday and l would say that my faith
er was insane on Wednesday, July
18th.
The next witness for the defense
was Frank Baker, another son of the
defendant. His testimony was as
follows: / am thirteen years old and
am in the 9Th grade. i have stayed
out of school on account of having to
work part of the time. My father
is J. J. Baker, the defendant. He has
acted peculiar for the past four years.
l have seen him have spells for four
days. have seen father strike moth
er without any cause. (Witness
cried.) He said that he was sorry
afterwards. l have seen him on his
knees asking forgiveness. l saw q
rope on the wind mill and took it
down. have seen him get up at
nights and 60 to the barn, cave or
porch and sleep. When. he slept out
by the barn he slept on boards. He
would say that he didn't want to sleep
in the house and he would quiver all
over. He has threatened to shoot US
at nights when he would get up and
he has threatened to kill us and pile
us up in pile. He was cruel to the
horse. / think my father was insane
on July 18th.
The testimony of Robert S. Dye,
for the defense, was a follows.
have known J. ]. Baker for about six
years and am slightly acquainted
wit Ralph Rozell. l saw Baker Mon
day evening, July 11th, at about sew
en- o'clock. He was excited and had
a peculiar look in his eye. Baker
said he wanted to protect his family
and that he couldn't get protection.
l told him to go to the District At
torney and that he would fix it up for
him. He said that it wouldn't do
much good; that Roy Johnson run
with the same social clique that Ro-
zell did and that it wouldn't do any
good. told him that Mr.. Pound was
the deputy district attorney here and
that he would take care of it, and Mr.,
Baker said it wouldn't do any good.
l have known Mr.. Baker for some
time and l think that he was a little
off that Monday evening as he acted
queerly. He talked to me about Ro-
zell and said Rozell was down to
his house Sunday morning.
The testimony of Frank Deich for
the defense is as follows: have
known j. ]. Baker, the defendant, for
several years and have known his

sprayer at the request of Mr.. Rolf

there the greater part of the day
working with Mr.. Baker and talked
with him. He asked me what would
do if somebody came to my house and
tried to drag my wife out of the
house in her night gown. told him
that the man that would do that
would not get out of my yard. He
told me Rozell had done this. ask

Deceived by Reflection.

The rumor that there was such a place as Fl Dorado was so insistent centuries ago that Humboldt, the ex- plorer, made a special investigation, and located the origin of the fable in territory between the Essequibo and BrancO rivers in Guiana. Great deposits of mica-slate and tale so flecked the rocks surrounding a small lake that the sun did indeed turn the area into a vast golden mirror, but as far as the value of the deposits were concerned there was nothing to wish for. The temples, houses and public buildings of beaten gold were mere ly the imagination of those who had glimpse the lake, but had bee npre- vented by natives from reaching it.

In construction the new device does not differ greatly from the Old-style lawn mower h. stead of the stationary handle, the new machine has a pivOted handle set on a tOOthed quadrant By lifting a stop pin from between the teeth of the quadrant, and setting 1t to the desired point, the mower is brought into an angular position relative to the operator, so that he can cut a lengthwise swath on the slope with out leaving the ground level.

If You Need a Medicine
 You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why it IS that so many products that are ex- tensively advertised, all at once drop out of sight and are soon forgotten? The reason IS plain-the article did not fulfill the promises of the manufacturer. This applies more particularly to a medicine. medicinal preparation that has real curative value almost sells itself, as like an endless chain system the remedy is recommended by those who have been benefited, to those who are in need of it.
 A prominent druggist says "Take for example Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, a preparation have sold for many years and never hesitate to recommend, for in almost every case it shows excellent re- suits, as many of my customers testify. No other kidney remedy has so large a Bale"
 According to sworn statements and verified testimony of thousands who have used the preparation, the success of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is due to the fact. 80 many people claim, that it fulflls al most every wish in overcoming kidney, liver and bladder ailments; corrects uri- nary troubles and neutralizes the uric acid which causes rheumatism.
 You may receive a sample bottle of Swamp-Root by Parcels Post. Address Dr. Kilmer 6 Co.,, Binghamton, N. Y, and enclose ten cents; also mention this paper. Large and medium size bottles for sale at all drug stores. es.AdVertisemen

What One Minister Did.

There are $1,000 delegates in New
York to-day in attendance on the
Sixth Worlds Christian Endeavor
Convention, which opened last even
ing in the Seventy-first Regiment
Armory. The organization they rep
resent is a potent influence in the
moral and social life OF this country,
with important branches in other
lands; and it's members have the
privilege of seeing and knowing the
man who male their strong associa-
tion possible. -tl
This individual is Francis e. Clark,
who in Williston Church, Portland,
Me-, founded the Society Of Chris
tian Endeavor in February, 1881.
DR.. Clark has been it's president from
tie beginning, and since 1887 he has
given all his time to it's affairs.
The creation, extension, and main
tenance of such society-its name
sufficiently describes its purpose
require the exercise of imagination,
great energy, and unusual executive
ability. The man who possesses these
qualities will go far in whatever ac-
tivity engages his attention. DR..
Clark would have been great mer-
chant, great politician, great in
dustrial operator.
1t is asserted that young men now
adays refuse to go into the ministry
because they feel it offers a re-
stricted field. Men like DR.. Clark do
not find the religious field restricted.

COMMITTEE OF 16
SELECT CITY TICKET

men for Approval.

The committee selected a few
weeks ago to name a city ticket for
Board of Mayor and Aldermen to be
submitted to a mass meeting of the
citizens on the first Monday night in
October met last Monday night.
At a previous meeting two weeks
before it was tentatively agreed that
no selections would be made until
Immediately preceding the mass
meeting, but that names would be
suggested and discussed last Monday
night. However after little more
discussion, the sentiment seemed to
change in favor of early action, and
the committee proceeded to ballet in
accordance Herewith:
The first balloting was fer mayor,
resulting in no choice, but revealing
number of names which had been
privately discussed Finally the vote
centered on Harry T. Robinson and
he was unanimously chosen. The
next balloting was for aldermen,
Luther Andrews leading the ticket.
A motion was made to nominate Mr..
Andrews and the next ballot was for
five names. F. l.. Kerr was the next
nominee and the next ballot was for
four names. The vote was nearly
even between Harris Parks, T.. R.
Reynolds, e. Fl. Marshall and C. T.
sLovelace, and these four were nom
mated, completing the ticket of may
or and six aldermen
A few of the nominees undertook
to decline but were prevailed upon to
accept. However acceptances were
deferred until the meeting next Mon
day night.

MANY LIVES LOST.
Property Damage Estimated
Eight Millions.

San Antonio, Sept. 12.-The death
list which resulted from the flood
which swept the lower section of the
city last Saturday is still uncertain
to-day
Some estimates run as high as 100.
Forty-seven bodies have already been
recovered by rescue workers.
The property damage is estimated
at not more than $S,0OO,00O. This
is the estimate given by G. B. Yam
dell, general manager of the Cham
ber of Commerce of San Antonio.
A fund of $4,000 is being raised
for relief of the flood sufferers, and
the citizens of the city are expected
to raise this amount without difficult
ty. Mr.. Yandell expressed the belief
that the city would be able to handle
the situation without any outside
help.

MILLS AND REALTY
Trustees Sale of the Mill Property
in Union City.

The corn and wheat mills, real
estate, plants, machinery, equipment,
etc., according to the order of the
Trustee in Bankruptcy, H. C.. Stan
field, was offered for sale at the
premises in Union City on Monday,
18th inst. A large number of people
were present at the sale, but the bid
ding was limited to few buyers.
Mr.. John G. Saunders, the auc-
tioneer, cried the property. Corn Mill
B, including feed mill, warehouse,
engine house, offices, ETC., was offered
for sale separately, first on a credit
and then for cash. The wheat mill
was offered second, in the same man
ner, and the Clogs warehouse on the
M. & 0. tracks was the third sale.
Finally after these offers were
closed the entire property was put
up as a whole and offered first on a
credit and then for cash. Local men
WSIc III IuC UluulhS, OuC JhO oONNOOO
full bidder was Mr. Reagor Motlow, of
Lynchburg, Tenn, and the maximum
bid $4,000.
Discussing the matter with attor-
neys for creditors we understand an
effort will be made to realize more
money for the property at private
sale- A plant of this character and
everything complete could not be
constructed probably for less than
$4,000 or more. But there are some
repairs to be nade and new parts to
be installed before it is in working
order. Therefore it is estimated that
the property is worth considerably
more at this time as an investment
and hence will bring better price.
On the other hand Mr.. Motlow and
his father are both men of means
and business standing and would be
more than welcome to a reasonable
inducepent to locate in Union City.
1t is the opinion of many persons that
the advantage Of having these mills
opened and in operation at the earli-
est practicable time would be worth
a great deal to the farmers and the
people of the city and county.
Mr.. Motlow wants us to under
stand that he intends If the sale is
confirmed to locate in Union City
to make this his home and the opera
tion of the mills his business. He
has some experience already in the
operation of the mills owned by his
father at Lynchburg and Cumberland
Springs. We are also pleased to say
that Mr.. Motlow, Jr., comes to us
thru the recommendation of some fine
men, notably w. M. Warterfield and
w. w. Cowden. He is graduate of
Vanderbilt University and is particu-
larly interested in making a success
of the milling business.
Union City would be glad to see
Mr.. Motlow become citizen and the
owner of these mills.
