The Attention of Chief Ambrose Culled ]

to the Actions of a Strange Woman
Found Knocking Arouud the Plait ,
of the Conway Lumber Cempany. J
^ * * * ^ t y-L 4 v\AMaAne
On last JMonaay di^ui ^oio^uo
called the attention of Chief Am- j
brose to a strange woman who was (
waiting about the sheds of the Con- ,
way Lumber Company, with no- j
apparent purpose in view. It was ,
then about dark and a rainy night. i
She was apparently about 35 years
of ago and getting gray. Mr. Ambrose,
the chief of police with some
c?.hei*8 in the party went down to
the plant of the lumber company
and asked the woman her name and
tried to find out what she wanted, j
She stated that her name was Har- 1
riet Lowery and that she was walk- \
ing all the way from Washington, J
D C., to Tampa, Fla., and that she
nad arrived in town that evening on 1
a mail oart from Wampeo, and that
she was knocking around the lum- i
ber sheds in the hope of finding a
barge going down the river with a i
load of lumber. She was told that
she could go down on the regular
steamer, and she replied that she
had no money with which to pay
her passage, and wanted to go in
some way that would not cost her
anything. ,
Finally the chief told her that she
would not bo allowed to stay around
the works of the lumber company,
and that unless she went on out of
town, she would be looked up. She
protested against this, but when th*
oflicer insisted she agreed to take
the road leading from Conway to
Bucksvillo. As she disappeared
down the road the policemen followed
her to see if she went. Inx
steaJ of keeping the road she turn*
ed out a short distauca from the
corporate limits and walking
through the woods returned ioto the
town went and sat down on the
porch of a vacant house belonging
to Mr. W. R. Lewis. The ollicers
again wont to her and this time
actually started to take her to jail.
She protested vigorously against
this and claimed they had no right
to arrest her and that she was
minding her own business and
bothering nobody's property.
She otlerod to show papers which
would convince them, and when
tney offered to look at the papers,
she showed several government ap- I
pointments to postal positions, and t
a very good recommendation from a
one of the departments. Ua her e
promise not to give trouble she was t
allowed to remain in the vacant 1
house, and she was not seen the
following morning. She was not y
very badly dressed and one of the i
papers she had showed that she was
trained in the science of book-keep,a*.
ing. Whore sbo went, what her
purposes are, and where she came
from, are all mysteries, and are
likely to remain so. j

Fisticuff Goes Into Court.
There was a fist fight last Saturday
morning between W. R. Cherry
and E. S. Griffith. Griffith got the
worst of the fray and started proceedings
in the Mayor's court, and
the trial was set for hearing on Friday
of this week, before* Mayor H,
P. Llttla.
It seems that there was a dispute
between the parties over a drayage
bill. They went into the store of
Mr A. C. Thompson on Friday evening
late to straighten out the matter.
There were some words and Griffith
with a knife ran Cherry out of the
store. On the following morning,
Saturday the parties met again and
the difficulty was renewed with the
results above related. Mr Griffith

The peculiar excellence of the

by every visitor to that city. The

Over at Chester", writes Mr.
T. G. Reily, the well known and
genial travelling representative of
;he Reily-Taylor Co. of New Orleans
'I was standing in the >tore of Mr.
Richardson. He introduced ine to
>ne of his customers, to whom he
referred as another "Luzianne
srank." I asked this man to tell
ne why he preferred Luzianne to
ill oilier coffees. Hi9 reply was a
iplendid tribute to very recent experience.
"A few days ago when
we went to make coffee for break
'ast, found that we did not have a
lit of Luzianne in the house. My
wife went to a neighbor's, who on
y had the plain "store ground"
joffee. We put in the same amount
is we had been using of Luzianne,
ind I delare to you that the hot wa;er
was hardly colored. I had to
,ake three times AS MUCH, and
hen ;did not get as good ccffee as
luzianne makes. Now when we repurned
the neighbor's coffee we
ent her Luzianne. She in turn usid
as much as was customary with
he bulk roasted aud ground, and
ler coffee was entirely too strong,
she came to us about, it, and we exilained
it to her. Now she won't
lave anything but Luzianne." ?Adv

Deafness Cannot Be Cured
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
deafness, and that is by constitution
al remedies. Deafness is caused hy
an inflamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is inflamed you have
a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed.

the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will bo destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by Catarrh, which is nothing
but an inflamed cohdition of the mucous
surfaces.

the rightjto run down the main

and the railroad ought
not to impose on the town in that

to compel the road to provide a
