Too
Much Knife!
The use of the surgeon's ktiifc is becoming
so general, resulting fatally
in sucli a large number of cases, as to
occasion general alarm.
, Mr. William Walpole, of Walshtown,
South Dakota, writes; "About
three years ago, there came undei
my left eye a little blotch about the
size of a small pea.
It grew rapidly,and
ei shooting pains ran
ffi in every direction,
' became alarmed
* * an<* consulted a
'''-.^'^wiSk^ good doctor, who
\ pronounced it can^aRn
.xKHsfeyvcer, and said that it
must be cut out.
^'vV tWk/ This I would not
'iO^N consent to, having
little faith in the
indiscriminate use of the knife. Reading
of the many cures made by S. S.
S., I determined to give that medicine
a trial, and after I had taken it a few
days, the cancer became irritated and
began to discharge. This after awhile
ceased, leaving a small scab, which
finally dropped oil, and only a healthy
little scar remained to mark the place
where thedestroyer had held full sway.

The coroner's inquest today
brought out the following facts:
linker's wile was aroused about
1 o'clock this morning by some
J unaccountable sounds. Upon aris[
, ing she discovered that the house
> - was on tiro and immediately
awakened her husband.
Just as she did >o, there was a
j volley of rille shots fired upon
j the building and the bullets c line
j clear through the walls and matte
' things hot for the occupants.
[j By this time the entire house
hold was aroused and efforts were
made to check the flames. All
| this time the liring. outside was
, kept up, whon the man saw that
there was no chance to check the
; j lire, lit; told his [family to follow
hitn and he rushed to the
[ front door of the house. Just as
lie opened the door he was shot
down.
Instantly the woman the three

Those of the household who
were still ahle to walk ran from
the burning building rinht into
^ Ilie faces of the assassins.
The mob (juiekly dispersed.
This morning the charred remains
of the postmaster and the
1 baby we?-e found and examinations
by physicians showed that

the tragedy at once to investigate
and make a full report of the case
to the department. When this is
obtained the department of justice
, will be asked to prosecute the
persons engaged in the crime.
Baker, who is said to have been
i a respectable colored man and
I who had previously taught school,
| was appointed to the ollice in
j.Iuiy last. It is said at the department
that he was a man of
|i|uiet, unobstrusive habits and
j had tilled the position a short
j while only before threats of personal
danger were made against
him. There was no place in the
city to be had for keeping the
postoftice and it was removed to
the schoolhouse in the suburbs.
The citizens boycotted the ollice
with some degree of success. No
serious complaint had been received
concerning the condition
of affairs very recently, aiulit was
hoped that the prejudice against
the postmaster had died down.
The postmaster general has offered
a reward of .$.'500 for the
i arrest an 1 conviction of the per^
s iis who burned the postoilice at
I.ake < itv, S. on Monday
j night, and a reward of ifoOO for
it lie arrest and conviction of the
]> rsons who murdered the oust
master at the same time.
CJeneral (iary lias issued an order
to discontinue the ollieo at
Lake city from this time.
Mail intended for Lake City
will hereafter be sent toScranton,
the nearest postolliee, where it
can be called for by the people of
t he termer place.
Attorney < leneral Griggs has
telegraphed I'nited States Attorney
Lathrop at Charleston instructing
him to co-operate with
tin? State authorities, and if possible
secure the arrest of the
parties for destroying the post
other building and for other
felonious acts in connection with
the murders done in violation of
the statue of the i'nited States.
