January Jones, the Nevada miner, ha

our prohibition laws'will excite his woe

P? tells how a conjurer gave an exhibitio
in a prohibition town. Ih the coarse c
his entertainment the man needed a pit
flask of whiskev.
"A pint flask of whiskey, please," h

was no reply.
"What is this?" said the conjure:
"Surely, in a prohibition town, I don

Hit Them Both at Once.
jg : A good instance of a double reproo
occurred in a Scottish church. A la<
named Merry weather was very inatten
g3jj? ? ' live during a service greatly to the annoy
ance of the minister. His father alway
Jy ^ composed himself for a nap directly th
?-v sermon was well under way, so that th
boy could do as he liked without parents
reproof. The minister could stand it n<
ionger one Sunday, so he stopped sudden
ly in his sermon and said: "John Merri,
" weather if you continue to act in such ai
unseemly manner during divine worship
shall tell your father. I should tell hiu
now, but he happens to be asleep." Fron
that day Merryweather senior and junioi
were model listeners.
. Murdered and Bobbed.
Camden, October 3.?At 9.25 tonighi
Robert McDowell, a grocer and good cit
* men of this city, was found in DeKalt
. street, dead from a wound inflicted by i
bludgeon. His money and his keys wen
gone and his mercantile books were bj
??: \ his side. He was carrying them home tc
post when set upon by the assassin anc
fobber.
The body was found by his 15-year-olc
son, lying two feet from a great pine tre<
g?:- ^ near Hampton Park, on' DeKalb street
immediately opposite a grove. The blov
Kg-., had struck him across his right temph
? and the right side of his face, evidently
causing instant death, and the assassii
evidently had concealed himself behine
the great tree.
Ul' Mrs. McDowell, thinking her liusbam
was uncommonly late, sent their littl
boy to meet his father and he discovers
the body, but did not recognize it. H
went to the house of Louis Black, nearb;
and telephoned for help. Drs. Burnett
and Brasington came at once, but coul<
do pothing. The man was dead.
Police officers are now guarding th
scene and permit no one to approac
close. Messengers have been sent to th
State farm for bloodhounds. Considers
able excitement prevails here, but ther
are no threats.
As yet no clue has been found. Th
amount of money that Mr. McDowell ha
on his person is not known.
