PIP HK KILL JACKSONT
ran of Cheetcrflsld County Al
ways Haunted by Thst Fear.
John Thompson, a gallant old
erate- veteran", went to "his
near Cheraw believing firmly
t he fired the shot that killed Gen
HBPItonewall Jackson. He was on
duty the night Jackson was killed,
tyad his sentry was right near where
Jackson fell. He has often said
that he fired his gun several times
that night at the enemy, and that he
iielleved one of the bullets hit his be
loved leader.
Mr. Thompson was a brave soldier
and suffered many wounds< He re
ceived three wounds on the day fol
lowing the shooting of Jackson. One
bullet from the enemy hit blm In the
forehead, and until his dying day
| there was a large hole there to at*
test the terrible wound. When he
regained consclousncB after being
I shot down he discovered the woods
around him on .fire, He managed to
dr?* himself, although almost mor
tally grounded, bit by bit to a place
of safety.
Mr. Thompson's eyes would fill with
tears when he spoke of the possibility
and tbe probability, of his having
killed Jackson. It prayed on his
mind at times to such an extent that
he couldn't gleep. He passed many
restleife night. This gallant old war
rior now sleeps In a cemetery In
Chesterfield county. -

HIRAM CARPENTER'S WONDER
FUL CURE OF PSORIASIS.
"I Lav? been afflicted for twenty
yean w|th an obstinate akin disease
called by some M. D.'e. psoriasis, and
others leprosy, commencing on m)
?calp;* and In spite of all I could do
with the help of the most skilful doc
tors, it slowly but surely extended un
til a year ago this winter it oov6red
my entire person in tbe form of dry
scales. For tht last three years I havt
boon unable to do any labor, anc
suffering Intensely all the time. Every
morning there would be nearly a dust
panful of scales taken from the sheel
on my bed, some of them half as large
aa tbe envelope containing this letter
tyi the latter part of winter my skin
commenced cracking open.' 1 tried
everything, almost, that could be
thought .of, without any relief. The
12th of June I started West, in hopes
I could reach tho Hot Springs. 1
reached Detroit and was so low 1
thought I should have to go tp the
hospital, but finally got as far as Lan
sing, Mich., whero I had a sister liv
ing. One Dr. ? treated me about
two weeks, but did mo no good. All
thought I had but a short time to live.
[I earnestly prayed to die. Cracked
through the skin all over my back,
across my ribs, arms, hands,- limbs;
feet badly swollen; toe-nails came off;
finger-nails dead and liard ha a bone;
hair dead, dry and lifeless as old
straw. O my God I bow I did suffer.
"My sister wouldn't gtve up; Bald,
'We will try Cutlcura.*' Some was ap
plied to one hand and arm. Eureka!
there was relief; stopped the terrible
burning seusatlon from the word go.
They immediately got Cutlcura Re
solvent, Ointment and Soap. I com
menced by taking Cutieura-ReBOlveni
three time a day after meals; had a
bath once a day, water about blood
heat; used Cutlcura Soap freely; ap
plied Cutlcura Ointment morning and
evening. Result: returned to my
homo in Just bIx weeks from the time
I left, and my skin as smooth as this
sheet of-paper. Hiram E. Carpenter,
Henderson, N. Y."
The above remarkable testimonial
waa writteh January 19, 1880, and is
republished because of the' perman
ency of the cute. Under date of April
22,1910, Mr. Carpenter wrote from his
preaent 'home, 610 Walnut St. So.,
Lansing, Mich.: "I havo never suf
fered a return of the psoriasis and al
though many years have passed I have
not forgotten, the terrible Suffering 1
endured before using the Cutlcura
Remedies." ? ?
What Impressed Him.
W. H. Child, president of the Yel

Europe two or three years ago and
had for a companion a man interested
In the hotel business. They traveled
over Europe, investigating hotel and

and finally arrived in Rpmo. They
vWent^lnto St Peter's and stood be
neath the dome. "Well," said Child,
"hero it is. Here's the dome." The

he turned to Child and asked:- "How.

DOCTOR COOK RETURNS.
Artio Explorer Arrtvet~1n New York
After Year's Absence.
Now, York.?Dr. Frederick A. Cook,
who disappeared, over a year ago,
came back to his native land on tho
steamship George Washington, as
calmly as if thero had never been u
North pole controversy. He looked
well, and said little; in fact, a type-,
written interview handed to report
ers, embraced all he had to say with
the exception of the necessary formal
ities of conversation thrust upon him
by interviewers,
Of far more dramatic interest was
a heated controversy among tho
steamship passengera
Impression he hadmado upon them,
The doctor still asserts that ho be
lieves ho .was at the pole.
-The doctor did not know whether
hi would take up thd practice of med
icine again or not. What ho intended
to do with tho instruments and rec
ords which he sayB are at ICtah, would
also be told in a forthcoming story.
He was emphatic that they wero i s
correct as 'any explorer's instru
mentB," and that no "polar proofs are
positive." He reiterated that, al
though he was not a mariner, ho was
competent to take obseravtions to de
termine IiIb position on the lattitudo
and- longitude.
From the steamer ho went directly
to the hotel, where he stayed before
on his welcome from Copenhagen.
MrB. Cook and the children, he said,
were still in France whoro the chil
dren were attending school.
