The Greatest E7icV.ce
Of the dangers of .cholera morbus,
diarrhoea, and dysentery is the increase
in the death rate during the
summer months. You cannot be
too careful, and particular attention
should be paid to the diet. A sup
ply of Pain Killer should always be
at hand for it can be relied on at all
times as safe, sure and speedy. A
teaspoonful will cure any ordinary
case. Avoid substitutes, there is but
one Pain Killer, Perry Davis'. Price

The Campaign Meeting.
One of the largest crowds assembled
at this place in maDy a day,
gathered here last Saturday. This
was county campaign day, which no
doubt, induced many to leave their
farms and homes to spend a day
pleasantly in town and ei joy commingling
wiih their town cousins.
It was a well behaved and good
natured crowd whose only object
seemed to be to get as much innocent
pleasure out of the day as pos
eible and the people succeeded in
doiDg this if we were to judge from
their happy smiling faces.
On account of the preliminary
hearing being held in the courthouse
during the morning, the speaking did
Dot eommence until after dinner.
The candidates epcke in the order
named, Dr. Brooker, Dr. Crosson

The Preliminary Hearing
List Saturday a preliminary hearing
was given the ten citizens cf tbe
Foi k, who are charged with being
implicated in the kiliiug of Mr. W
Pat J> avers some weeks ago, before
Magistrate Sweedenborg. Solicitor
Thurmond represented the State and
Messrs. Ftiid A Dreher and Meelze
& Mnller appeared for the defendants.
After several witnesses were exairiurd.
Solicitor Thnrimud a: k d f. r
a continuance of the hearing until
Wednesday, August Hi (today), on
account cf the absence of several
mateiial witnesses, who were pre
vented from being present by reason
o? sickness. This motion was eloquently
opposed by the defence who
contended that the State had already
an pie time in which to have its witnesses
present had due diligence
beeu used and the piisoners were
before the court demanding a speedy
hearing. Solicitor Thurmond in
reply stated that a grave crime had
b.-en committed when not eye, but
that of the dying man and his God
could witness the deed and therefore
the State had to rely solely upon
circumstantial evidence which took
time to work up. Judge Sweedenberg
held that the law gave him ten
days after notice in which to hold
the preliminary hearing and as i e
had had but five days notice be
would grant the continuance asked
for by the Solicitor, and set the day
named above for the hearing to be
resumed.
The court house was crowded to
its utmost capacity from the beginning
to the end of the hearing and a
great deal of interest in the hearing
was manifested by the spectators.
Today the prliminary was resumed
before Judge Sweedenburg. There
is a large crowd of Fork people in
town who are urry much interested
in the outcome of the case. Col.
George Johnstone, of the firm of
Johnstone & Welch of Newberry,
who have been retained by the defence,
represented the State. After
hearing the evidence, the Judge decided,
that prima facia cases bad
been made out against John Frick,
Bennett Frick, Charlie Cinnon, John
Cannon, John Fulraer, D. J. Dehart
and C. S. Mathews, and, they were
he'd for appearance at court. Frank
Cannon, Charlie JIaltiwanger and
Marion Fiick were discharged.
