O Brown Shoots His StepMother
and Himself.
PROMINENT iN SOCIETY.
On Account of a Difficulty in Dividing
the Estate of J. S. Brown, the Husband
and Father, Otis Brown Shoots
His Step Mother and Then Kills
Himself.
Following heated words relativ
to the settlement of the estate of
J S Brown, their father and husband,
OtisBrown,aprominent young
society man of Oxford, N C., fired
a revolver point blank at his step
mother, Mrs J S Brown, and with
deliberation and coolness then turned
the barrel of the gun toward himself
ending his existence,
The would be murderer and suicide
died instantly while panic stricken
relatives and frionds lifted Mrs
Brown from a pool of her own
blood and summoned medical assist
- i . i a
Y ancei Physicians stated uiat sne
has an even chance of recovery and
later reports from her bedside state
that the crisis has passed and her
condition is much improved.
??Mre Brown is one of tho most
prominent as well as wealthy wo
men of this section and the tragedy
has put the town in an intense state
of excitement.
The trouble, it is said, is of long
standing, resulting from a dilliculty
in settling the estate of J S Brown,
husband and father of the two victims.
KNOWN IN WILMINGTON.
Mrs Brown was shot through the
arm and tho ba-U entered tho body
just above the heart. The tragedy
is by far the most deplorable ever
in the history of Oxford. There
are three surviving members of tho
family, Mrs Jin? Ployd and J W
Brown, children of tho late J S
Brown by a former marriage, and
Miss Susie Brown, the only child of
the second marriage. Both Mrs
Brown and Otis are well known in !

many acquaintances in the city.
They have both visited there often,
the young man having made his
home there for a while.
[J S Brown many years ago was
engaged in business at Little River,
and Mrs Brown mentionod in the
above dispatch is a sister of John I
Ward, of Little River?Editor.]
The Best Hour of Life
is when you do some great deed or
discover some wonderful fact, This
hour came to J R Pitt, of Rocky
Mt., N 0., when he was sutlering
intensely, as he says, "from
the worse cold I ever had, I then
proved to my great satisfaction,
what a wonderful Cold and Cough
cure Dr King's New Discovery is,
For, after taking one bottle, I was
entirely cured. You can't say anything
too good of a medicine like
that " Its the surest and best remedy

The Value of Good Health
The September number of Physical
Culture, a periodical that should
bo found in every borne in the laud,
contains a gem from the cultured
mind of Bernarr Macfadden, on the
^|- value of Good Health. He says:
I - \ "Good health is the most important
of all human assets. It is better
than money in the bank; in fact
it ma} be considered a deposit in
the bank of human life. It represents
a capital that is capable of
being turned into resources of any
sort, although to be sure we do not
usually realize its value until we
are compelled to do without it for a
short period.
"To those who have felt the pangs
of sickness and the tortures of weakness
it is needless to dwell upon the
value of health. They know its
/ value. They appreciate it to its fullest
extent. But t.o those who have
not experienced severe physical suft
ferirg let me emphasize the very
great value of suburb yitalifcy and
robust health.
"If one and all possessed a thorough
knowledge of health building,
hospitals and sauitariums would
soon be needless, and along with the
closing of these institutions would
come the passing of the jails, the
oct lnmc and. last but not
| I llcoi'b ? ? , ,
least, the disappearance of a great
1 v part of tbe misery which a large
part of the human race is compelled
; to endure because of their ignorance
of their present invironments.
"Let us build health. Let us all
demand health, not only for ourselves,
but our progeny. The sciI
ence eugenics?race improvement?
should be thoroughly developed.
(What right, have we to bring children
into the world and curse them
from their birth, one might say,
with weakness, disease and physical
deformity of various kinds?
"We certainly need a Department
of Health. We need a few lessons
in human decency. We could learn
many lessons from savages whom
we class as ignorant and benighted.
We could at least recognize some of
the responsibilities that they assume,
of properly earing for our
progeny,

Life on Panama Canal
has had one frightful drawback?
malaria trouble?that has brought
sickness aud death to thousaods.
Toe germs cause chills, fever and
ague, biliousness jaundice, lassitude
weakness and general debility.?
But Electric Bitters never fail to
destroy them and cure malaria
troubles. "Three bottles completely
cured me of a very severe attack
of malaria," writes W A Frotwell,
of Lucama, N C , "and I've had good
health ever since." Cure stomach,

Died.
Annie Belle, infant daughter of
W J and Sallie E Smith, was born
February 26th, 1909 and died July
11, 1910. She was sick two weeks
and suffered intense pairi, but she
bore her sufferings with remarkable
patience for one so young. See was
the light and joy of her home and
by her sweet and gentle disposition
won the love of all. It is so hard to
part with the little darling, but God
knew best and called her homo and
while the home of earthly parents
is darkened with sadness, but we
weep not as those who have no hope
for we expect to meet dear little
Annie Belie in a better world than
this. One Who Loved Her.
Staggers Skeptics.
That a clean, nice, fragrant compound
like Bucklen's Arnica Salve
will instantly relieve a bad burn,
cut, scald, wound or piles, staggers
skeptics. But great cures prove its
a wonderful healer of the worst
sores, ulcers, boils, felons, eczema,
skin eruptions, as also chapped
hands, sprains and corns. Try
it. 25c., at Norton Drug Co.
