Continued to Next Term.
Several criminal cases which were
docketed for this term of district
court were called Thursday aud con-
tinued until the next ter mof court.
Waiter Poulter, charged with perju-
ry, which was set for the first of the
week, will come uy for trial next Mon-
day.
Sam Williams had been found in ^pe
gin house of Will B. Wynn, hanging
by his neck, and was dead. The sher-
iff immediately went to the commun-
ity and found the report was true,
and Justice J. E. Hodges went out in
company with Dave Bratton, the un-
aertaker. and held an inquest over the
remains. The finding was that the man
came to his death by his own hands,
having hung himself. The body was
taken in charge by Cotten-Bratton and
prepared for burial, whlcgh took place
Monday afternoon In the community
cemetery.
Williams was an unmarried man.
and had been In the Baker community
fpr the past fifteen years, and but Ut-
tel had ever been learned ofthts peo-
ple. He had been working at the gin
for some time, and Monday morning
got up as usual and went out of the
house, presumably to tbe barn to at-
tend to the stock, and his absence was
not thought anything of until bis life-
less body was found 'swinging from
the rafters in the gtn. when the men
went out to work. He was about (S3
years of age, as near as could be learn-
ed. As to tbe cause of the rash act,
no one has an idea, as he had up to
Sunday night seemed to be in good
spirits.
So (fateful citizens testify
P. Blttle. farmer, N Adams St., Wea-
therford. Texas, says: "I have had
no occasion to use Doan's Kidney Pills
or any other kidney remedy as the

Hon. Eugene W. Chafin of Arizona,

immediately went to the court house
square and spoke about fifteen min-
utes to a goodly crowd of citizens and
ago has proven permanent. About'
seven years ago, 1 was hnnoyed by my
back .and kidneys and suffered intense-
ly. At times the passages of the kid-
ney secretions were too frequent, es-
pecially at night, and 1 could not rest
la any position, getting up in the mor-
ning feeling tired and unrefresfoed. 1
doctored and tried many kidney rem-
edies, but until I got Doan's Kidney
Pills at Klndel s .Drug Store, I failed
to get any real benefit. I used alto-
gether about six boxes of this remedy
and by the end of that time considered
myself cured."

Retail Merchants Meet.
Monday night at the city hall, a
goodly number of the members of
tbe Retail Merchants Association met
In regular session, but there was little
business which came up for considera-
tion. Qal. O- M. Bowie, who some
time ago had been appointed to get
up an article descriptive of the city
as to the advantages of tbe place in
which to live, the purpose of the arti-
cle being to try If possible to Induce
man \jq Ipoafp Ufir6. The
article is to be printed in pamphlet
form, and mallei direct to each travel-
ing man. whose address can be secur-
ed. Tbe article as gotten up by Col.
Bowie, met with the approbation of
day. On account of wanting to make
connection with the passenger train
which was due in a short time for the
west, Mr. Chafin cat his address short,
and only gave a very brief outline as
to tbe platform of bis party Captain
Stanley, who accompanies Mr. Chafin
and does the singing, sang a splendid
selection through a megaphone, which
attracted considerable attention. Toe
speaker in the short length of time he
had to remain In the city, appealed to
the voters of the old parties, or of
Independent leanings, to vote for par-
ty prohibitoin, declaring that local op-
tion, state-wide enactments, state con-
stitutional amendments, petitions to
state legislatures and to the federal
congress was a waste of time and en-
jergy. He said that the Republican
| party was decadent and that the Dera-
Jocrats were certain to come into pow-
er, but will find only a house of dis-
traction and warring factions,' and
that this will be its last successful
campaign He said that prohibition
had made great gains in the past four
years and that the crowds and the In-
terest ia the state he had visited have
been twice as great as in his former
campaigns. He said that men have
been freed from oppression from for-
eign rulers and from slavery, and It is
now the duty of cltisens to free the
country from the liquor domination,

From Manila, States i'oang Man
Was Drowsed In Bay.
Mrs. Oliver Morse of this city, re-
ceived a letter from the Philippine
Islands Thursday, whfch Informed her'
that her son, Ed. had been drowned
in Manila bay. From the date of the
letter, Ed was drowned two days be-
fore (he death of his father, who died
in thig city a short time ago. No par-
ticulars could be learned of the ac-
cident, only that his body had been re-
covered and Interred at ManIJa.
Ed Morse was second mate on the
merchant vessel Manchuria, and when
the vessek was coming into the har-
bor at Manila, Morse was missed, and
the boat went back over its course
and the body was recovered. For sev-
eral years Mr. Morse had been mak-
ing trips across the waters from San
Francisco to the eastern parts of the
world, and had not been home for
some time, but his mother was look-
ing for him to spend the Christmas
holidays here with her, and when she
received the letter postmarked Manila,
was sure that her son had written tel-
ling her definitely as to what time he
would be home. Ed was raised In this
city and the many friends and ac-
quaintances of the family extend to
the bereaved mother and sisters th^ir
heartfelt sym^thy.

will be printed, and distributed at as
early- a date as possible.
Several good talks were made by
two or three of the members on ques-
tions which are considered live issues,
and it was suggested that some time
in the future a banquet would be had,
at which time many of the influential
farmers and citizens of tbe county
would be invited, and a general dis-
cussion of the conditions which con-
front us today, would be discussed,
and remedies proposed. This, in our
opinion, is the proper thing to do,.and
there are many things which can be
remedied.
Homer D. Wade, who made Weath-
erford a visit during the fair, consent-
ed to come back on the fourth of next
month, which is next Monday night,
and address the association upon the
subjects of1 commercial clubs, but
nothing further has been heard from
him. Mr. Wade, If he does come, will
have something very interesting to
say to the members of the association,
as well as to the citizens along the
lind of promoting enterprises and
civic improvements
tions the consumption of liquor In the
United States has advanced from nine
gallons per capita fifty years ago, to
more than twenty-three gallons Iasi

The time was up before the gentle-
man was hardly started, and he seem-
ed loath to quit, but the train whistled
at this jhneture and the gentleman
was rushed into a waiting auto and
started for the station, where he got
aboard, bound for Sweetwater and
other points west. Eugene W. Chafin
is the first presidential aspirant to
ever visit this city and the honor is
highly appreciated, and many who
wished to hear him, and fully intend-
ed to, were much disappointed at the

Mi-o-na Stomach Tablets Itanish All
Misery, Gas and Sournes.
You know that most of the ailments
named above come from an out of
order stomach; of course you do.
If your food doesn't digest, but lays
heavily on your stomach, it has start-
ed to ferment.
When it ferments it sets loose in
the stomach poisonous gases which
irritate the great nerve that leads di-
rectly to the brain from the stomach.
That irritation causes heartburn,
dizziness, nightsweats. nervousness.
MI-O-NA will end all stomach mis-
ery, or money back. A large box
costs only 50 cents and is sold by
