While talking to her he drew out his pistol. At this time G. W. Jarra* and the negro man drove up and Carms jumped out of the wagon and ran up behind Thnrman and caught him aud snatched his pistol out of his hand and begau beating him over the head with it.

Yorkville Nov.29.?Sunday having been net apart by the Associate" Reformed Fresbytearian synod as ' Temperance day," Rev W. C. Ewart, pistor of the churchof that denomination at this place praeah3(1 a strong and highly appreciated sermon on the subject using the words, "Wine is a mocker" as a basis of his remarks. Bis discourse was devoted principally to the State traffic in liquor. He said that in 1892 the people of the State, by a majority of 10,. 000 asked for prohibition; they were mocked by the law makers and given the dispensarj\ Then they were told it would pay the taxes, but the records of the courts and expense of penal institutions and expenses of officials nsed up that money which might have reduced taxes, and again they were mocked. Then the use of liquor money for education was a mockery, in that children who received its benefitwould conclude the traffic was right and evil effects ensue. His portrayal of the crime, distress and bloodshed re? suiting from the State engaging in the sale of liquor was especially able and interesting. A RUNAWAY BICYCLE.
