* The Big Barnum & Bailey Show Will
Soon Be With Us. j
J Although the Barnnm & Bailey's
Greatest Show on Earth, will not exhibit
in this city during the present
seaBOD, special excursion rates have
been made on all linea of travel to
afford people in this vicinity an opportunity
to visit the big show when
* it exhibits in Columbia, S. C., Oct. 31
The Barnum & Bailey circus has
aroused extraordinary interest this
rrtL- t
season, xihs is uuu surpnaiijg iu
4 view of the fact that this is its first
| American tour since returning from
its phenomenally successful five j
years' sojourn in Europe. In the
Old World it excited admiration and
wonder by reason of its magnitude
and the marvelous way in which it
was conducted. Here, at home, the
unparalleled reputation of former
years has beep accentuated by the
truly gigantic way in which the
- great show has expanded; and
grown while the many new, novel
and startling feats presented in the
three rings, on the double stakes, in
the vast aerial spaces and on the
mammoth hippodrome track have excited
an enthusiasm hitherto unknown
^ in arenic performances. The show
opens with a splendid inaugural
i> spectacle, "The tribute of Balkis."
Nothing so rich in costuming or so
elaborate in picturesque detail has
ever bee seen in America. The arenic
%
performances that follow, present 300
artists in a performance of unapproachable
magnitude and novelty.
The world's greatest rider?, the leading
manege equestrians of Europe,
aerialists whose feats in mid-air are
thrilling in their sensational .daring,
and scores of acrobats, gymnasts, and
other arenic specialists who perform
now and seemingly impossible feats
of strength and highly trained dexterity,
contribute to what is unquestionably
the grandest circus performance
ever given anywhere on earth.
Cyclo, the Kinetic Demon; who rides
a bicycle on the inner rim of a perpendicular
circle, has created a verii
toV?1 o fnrnr. A BAries of exciting hiD
podrome races, a world-embracing
menagerie, a congress of earth's most
noted ^living curiosities," and a reproduction
of the famous fighting
ships of the United States in/ minis- j
ture, round out an exhibition that
continues to be, what it always has
been, the greatest show on earth. A
magnificent free street parade will be
given at 10 o'clock in the morning,
prior to the opening performance.
Remember the date, Saturday Oct.
31st.
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.
No one who is acquainted with its
good qualities can be surprised at the
9* great popularity of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy. It not only cures
colds and grip effectually and permanently,
but prevents these diseases
from resulting in pneumonia. It is
also a certain cure for croup. Whooping
cough is not dangerous when this
v remedy is given. It contains no
? opium or other harmful substance |
and may be given as confidently to a J
- t T. 1 1
baby as to an aauit. ?c is aiso pieaBant
to take. When ail of these facts
are taken into consideration it* is not
surprising that people in foreign
lands, as well as at home, esteem this
remedy very highly and very few are
willingjto take any other after having
,' once used it. For sale by The

apprehend any seriouB consequence?.
"I, of course, deeply regret the
death of Mr. Gonzales, but I was
forced to do what I did.
"I have never apprehended a cont
viction, for I felt that I did no more
than any man would have done under
the same circumstances and what I
was compelled to do.
"My position was fully stated in
the testimony I gave on the stand.
^ ^ I did ask for a change of venue beJ
cause I was convinced on account of
prejudice in Richland county I could
not get a fair and impartial trial in
that county. I felt sure that as soon
a9 my case could be presented to an
impartial jury I could be vindicated.
"The verdict has justified the correctness
of my judgment. Lexington

Saved His Life.
J. W. Davenport, Wingo, Kv.,
writes, June 11, 1902: 'T want to
tell you I believe Ballard's Snow
Liniment saved my life. I was under
the treatment of two doctors, and
they told me one of my lungs was
entirely gone, and the other badly
affected. I also had a lump in my
side. I don't think that I could have
lived over two months longer. I was
induced by a friend to try Ballard's
Snow Liniment. The first application
gave me great relief; two fifty
cent bottles cured me sound and well.
It is a wonderful medicine and I
recommend it to suffering humanity."

Judge Frank B. Gary.
So far as the reports from Lexing
ton have come under our observation
in the newspapers, there has been
nothing but praise for Judge Frank
B. Gary's deportment on the bench
during the Tillman trial. Throughout
the two weeks consumed by the
hearing of a case in which there was
deep feeling and an element of political
partisanry throughout the state;
in which the ablest lawyers in South
! Carolina were arrayed against each
! other; and a trial to which public
interest know no State bounds,
Judge Gary has held the scales of
justice in equal poise, challenging
commendation of both sides for the
fair and impartial manner in which
he presided. Points that weae raised
by counsel during the progress of
the case were ruled upon promptly
and positively, convincing all that
the judge knew what he was about,
and wanted nothing, but the law and
equity in every instance.
Under the exacting circumstances
of this prolonged and important
trial to have maintained himself with
ability dionitv and strict imnartialitv.

has been captured by the constabulary.
Johnson was killed by the

had been grounded by the crew. The
constabulary also received 1700 pesas
in money from Herman.

The Dispute Settled.
Washington, Oct.16?Much satisfaction
is expressed here over the
London report that the decision of
the Alaskan boundary tribunal gives
the United States the victory.
Nothing official was obtainable nor
will be until the official announcement
comes from London.
The decision marks the achievement
cf the most wonderful progress
ever recorded in tee Pacific settlement
of disputes between nations, as
it was possible only through the act
of some one member of the tribunal
in voting againBt the contention of
his own country.
A Dozen Tines A Night.
Mr. Owen Dudd, of BentoD Ferry,
W. Yd., writes: "I have had kidney
and bladder trouble for years, and it
became so bad that I was obliged to
get up at least a dczen times anight
I Dever received any permanent benefit
from any medicine until I tried
Foley's Kidney Cure. After using
two bottles, I am cured." The Kaufmann

Dieting Invites Disease.
To cure Dyspepsia or indigestion
it is no longer necessary to live on
milk and toast. Starvation produces
such weakness that the whole system
becomes an easy prey to disease.

stomach and digestive organs to
digest and assimilate all of the
wholesome food that one cares to
eat, and it is a never failing cure for
indigestion, Dyspepsia and all stomach
troubles. Kodol digests what

Appeal of George Rembert, Esq.,
Which Brought Tears to the Eyes
of Ail Present at the Tiiiman
Trial.
John R. Barko in August! Chronicle.
Lexington. S. C., Oat. 12 (special)
?Q-eorge Rembert, oDly two years a
lawyer, and a former member of Tillman's
regiment, was tbe second
speaker in the Tillman trial tody.
He is quite youtful in fac\ and more
eo in appearance. Very little more
than a sophomoric effort was expected
from this young man. He had
proceeded but a short while when he
claimed the attention of all During
the entire course of bis speech he
was logical and at times eloquent.
It was when he reached his peroration
that the triumph was scored.
When he pictured Jim Tillman as a
colonel, beloved by privates and next
apostrophized by his wife, mother
and baby girls, there were many tears
shed in the court room. Strong men
cleared their throats, women were
washed in tears and four jourors
that I noticed wept. There was a
weak feeling about the eyes of ail as
Rembert feelingly closed his speech.
Broke Into His Honse.
S. Le Quinn, of Cavendish, Vfc.,
was robbed of his customary health
by invasion of Chronic Constipation.
When Dr. King's New Life Pills
broke into bis house, bis trouble was
arrested and now he's entirely cured.

A physician has recently discribed
a novel method of removing a fish
bone that was lodged crosswise in a
natient's throat. The bone was too
I
low to be reached by any forceps at
hand, and so the doctor tied a string
in the eye of a smooth butto 3 aad had
the patient swailow the button?edgewise

button back by the string and the bone
was promptly dislodged.
In Brazil it is considered undignified
for a lady to go shopping.

wants to buy, a box or basket containing
several of the latest styles is
sent up for her inspection.

G. W. Wrirt, Nacogodohes, Texas,

not keep house without it, and cannot

Kidney trouble causes quick cr unsteady

over-working in pumping thick, kidneypoisoned
bleed through veins and arteries.
It used to be considered that onk* urinarv
troubles were to be traced to the kidneys,
but now modern science proves that nearly
all constitutional diseases have their beginning
in kidney trouble.
