{Notice To Fall Buyers
As the great slump in price of cotton has
had its effect on certain lines of merchandise
and che public sentiment is that "Now is ihe
opportune time to combat the high cost of liv-
ing." you will find upon visiting our store that
we have fallen in line in helping to promote
this movement.
Car merchandise has been thoroughly gone
over and on such lines that have been affect-
ed we have been adjusting our prices accord-
ingly.
Thr.s has been done regardless of the cost of
goods to us.
We have a wide assorted and complete
stock in all lines.

, Johmi n, the County Jailer, by a pris-
oner nam*'d "Hoffman."
As i-: the custom, Mr. .Johnson was
taking the noon meal to the prisoners
confined in the jail, and as a special
favor at the request of the prisoner,
had been to town and purchased some-
thing special fi r the prisoner and the
assault took placc at the time of Mr.
Johnson was delivering this food'to
him.
This man "lit tfman" was being kept
apart from the other prisoners and
was allowed the use of the female
ward which was empty, thus allowing
! him more privileges.
j Whon Mr. Johnson entered the ward
and handed the food to the prisoner,
he, Mr. Johnson, stooped over to pick
up a broom from the fh or of the ward
at which time the prisoner stre- k him
over the head with a bottle making
a very serious wound.
Mr. Johnson offered resistance but
was soon overpowered frcm the blow,
when the p: ir.cner wound a blanket
around him and dragged hi; 1 into the
| ward, closing the door «nu goi.ig he
1 lou with a view of c. aping.
It i- -iipposed that on account cf
many passing the iail, preventin;, the
prisoner fr«n< making a ready escape.
1 When Mr. Johnson came to hi.nself.
; he went to the window and called U<
Mr. Hartford Jenkins who was passing
to i me to his assistance, as soon a-
Mr. .terik,.is recognized tne predica
mcnt Mr, Johnson was in, he gav
the alarm to other Ci unty officers
who immediately went to the jail and
released Mr. Johnson. '1 fie prisoner
ou'rd not be found at fp-st, but o"
1 Mr. Gei . V.". Davis going through the
| buihling he found him renceab'd In*
: hind a door of one « f the living rooms.
He was made to crime out and then
placed in safe keepinr in a locked cell.
Later on that ev ning a sheriff of
am 'her ci unty came for h!m to an-
• wer a charge of fi. rgerj. u appears
,hat he is wante<l for various 1 tT. rses,
,1ft' was in jail here for forgery at.

lunate to get off with< 'it nn re serious
injuries.
