Congressman Johnson has received
from the war department five vouch
ers for claims entered through him
against the government under the act
of February 12, 1902, to reimburse
those who had property taken from
them by Federal soldiers after the
surrender. The vouchers and the
amounts are as follows: Andrew
Mitchell, Union, $135: IV. H. San
ders, Union, 135; Capt. J. Frank
Wofford, Switzer, $125; G. W. Fow
ler, Union, $135; Mrs. Lizzie D.
Fleming, Spartanburg, $225. Total,
$725.
The handsome home of Capt. A. H.
Foster, of Union, was destroyed by
fire Friday morning at 4 o’clock.
About 3 o’clock Capt. and Mrs. Fos
ter were awakened by the sounds of
something falling in the kitchen, and
on investigation it was found that
the whole hack of the kitchen was in
flames. The fire alarm was immedi
ately given, and the members of the
household upstairs were awakened,
by this time the flames had such a
headway that all had to leave the
home, not being able to save even
all their clothing. The amount of
insurance cannot be ascertained just
now, hut it is known that it will lack
much of covering the loss.
While attempting to arrest two un
known negroes late Saturday after
noon, Magistrate William J. Cox, of
Greenville county, was shot in the
brain, dying about three hours later.
Telephone messages from Simpson-
ville say that Cox left his house, ac
companied by his constable, T. M.
Austin, in pursuit of the negroes,
whom he supposed were transporting
contraband liquor. The officers came

phone, were present and added much
to the attractions of the occasion.

Gaffney Drug Co. Guarantee that Hy-
omei will Cure the Worst Case of
Catarrh in Gaffney.
When one of the most reputable
concerns in Gaffney guarantees that
a medicine will effect a cure or they
will refund the money. It speaks vol
umes as to the merits of that remedy.
It is in this way that Gaffney Drug
Co. are selling Hyomei, the treatment
that has made so many remarkable
cures of both acute and chronic ca
tarrh in Gaffney and vicinity.
Hyomei is not a pill nor is it a liq
uid that has to be taken with a table
spoon or wineglass. Just breathe it
by the aid of an inhaler that comes
in every outfit and benefit will be
seen from the first treatment.
It destroys all germ life in the air
passages and lungs and enriches and
purifies the blood with additional
Gaffney Drug Co. have Such Faith in
This Great Dyspepsia Remedy That
They Guarantee It.
It is an unusual thing for a druggist
to sell a medicine under a guarantee
tou refund the money if it does not
cure. Yet this is the way Gaffney
Drug Co., the popular druggists, are
selling Mi-o-na, the standard dyspep
sia remedy.
Never before have they had so
large a number of customers tell
them that a medicine has cured as
with Mi-o-na. People who a few
months ago looked like walking skele
tons have put on flesh and today are
ruddy and vigorous with perfect di
gestion and good health, solely due to
the use of this remedy.
There is no longer any need of any
one suffering or making their friends
suffer on account of dyspepsia, for
Mi-o-na can be relied upon to cure.
The percentage of cures is so nearly
one hundred per cent, that there is
little risk to Gaffney Drug Co. in
guaranteeing to return the money if
the medicine does not cure, and they
stand ready to do so without any
questions.

Robert M. Furman, editor of the
Raleigh Morning Post, died Thurs
day at Beaufort, where he had gone
on account of his health. He was
about 57 years old and the cause of
his death was heart failure. He was
editor of the Asheville Citizen before
taking editorial charge of The Post,
and in 1892 he was elected State au
ditor, serving in that position for
four years. He was a Confederate
soldier.
Train No. 209, a through south
bound freight ou the Atlantic Coast
Line, jumped the track near Hope
Mills, Cumberland county, at 5
o’clock Thursday afternoon, killing
Engineer J. D. Byer, of Raleigh, in
stantly, and seriously injuring a ne
gro fireman, demolishing the engine
and the entire train, except two cars
and the caboose. The wreck occurred
within ten feet of where a freight
was wrecked a few months ago. A
special train was sent to the scene
from Fayetteville with a physician
and an undertaker.
News reached Asheville Friday of
another tragedy that occurred in
Madison last week, when Dan Norton
killed his brother. Hack Norton. It
seems that the Norton brothers, in
company with others, had started to
their home in he mounains of Madi
son, after having spent the day in
Marshall. While on the road home
Hack and Dan Norton quarrelled and
Dan cut Hack and otherwise injured
him so badly that he died in a short
time of his injuries. Dan Norton and
the other members of the party were
arrested and at the coroner’s inquest
the jury found that Hack Norton
came to his death at the hands of
his brother, Dan Norton. Dan is said
to be a desperate character and has
been in a great deal of trouble.

Prof. H. P. Griffith of Limestone
