Miller arrested Julius Eskew, a negro, upon the charge of trying to assist Abram James, another negro, to escape from jail. It will be recalled, that James was arrested several weeks ago upon the charge of stealing hogs. About two weeks ago Eskew went to the jail in the night time and placed a two by four scantling through the bars to James. James hid the niece of tint ; ber under his bunk. Deputy Sheriff Miller heard the noise and upon inquiry, he was informed by one of tha other prisoners that some one had put the scantling through the window. James denied the whole affair at'first, but'later gave his pal away and the arrest of Eskew followed. ! Cured Say Fever aad Summer Cold. A. J. Nnshaum.

Meridian, Miss., Sept. 18.?A special to the Dispatch from Sandersville, 50 miles south of Meridian, says: "Night riders have appeared in -Tnnps rnnntv and three nrominent farmers, living six miles east of here, received notices Monday night to haul no more cotton to gin, or else they would 'get paid' as they returned home. A general notice was also placed on the public roads warning all farmers to cease hauling cotton after September 14. Considerable excitement prevails and farmers near town are rushing their cotton in, while those farther away have ceased hauling to the gins." A Paying Investment. * Mr. John Wlrte, of 38 Highlandave., Honlton, Me., says: "Have been troubled with a cough every winter and spring. Last winter I tried many ad-, vertised remedie s, but the cough continued until I bought a 50c. bottle of Dr. King's New Discovery; before that* was half gone, the cough was all gone. This winter the same happy result has followed: a few doses once more banished the annual cough. I am now con vinced that Dr. King's New Discoveryis the best of all cough and lung remedies."

Many people suffer a great deal from Kidney and Bladder troubles, During the past few years much of this complaint has been made unnecessary by the use of BeWitt's Kidney and Bladder Pills.
