The remarkable success of the 80 Globe Remedy company in conducting 2 . their new method of advertising is TJ caused by two things. First, the wonderful merit contained in their medi- ot cines, and, second, by the fact that t0 this company knows that honesty and PJ fair dealings will always win its way and surmount all difficulties, and their oJ record here and elsewhere has proven v< it.

Nervousness, and all disorders a of the liver, kidneys, stomach and at blood. t'J To prove this they do not ask you dl to believe all they say, but they give you free^M,mples every day or sell, Jo for a short time only, the regular $1 bottles for 50c.

The county chaingang is now located near Cayce, where they are at work on the old State road, leading through the famous Hogabaa section swamp. This piece of road is said to have caused more trouble than any piece of road in the county, and the people of that section glacjly welcome the gang. Supervisor Lan?ford stated on Monday that the road was being made 30 feet wide, which is amply wide enough for all purposes. When the gang has nnistiea its wors it is not thought that any trouble will be experienced in keeping up tbi9 section of road, as the people living in the neighborhood will most likely keep the washouts filled in. ? ? ?

On Thursday I night Deputy Sheriff Miller captured I "Bub'' Harold, a negro, who has been B wanted for several months upon two B charges, assault and battery with in- B tent to kill and violating a labor con- | tract. The capture was made only after a lively and exciting chase. On Thursday morning Mr. Miller came m upon Harold at the home of Henry Bynum just as he was about to leave for the woods to cut logs. One of the women told Harold of the officer's presence, and he "lit a rag," taking to the swamp, the vigilant deputy in hot pursuit. Harold succeeded in eluding Mr. Miller for the time being, but the chase was kept up. He tracked him to the home of Jim Bynum, the brother of Ed Bynum, the notorious character who shot Sheriff Corley, and there placed him under arrest. He was brought to Lexington and is now in jail.
