To groom the horse, milk the cow,

Raleigh Post.
The guests of the Massenburg
Hotel at Henderson were afforded a
genuine sensation one day last week,
the particulars of which have been
the subject of gossip for several
days.
A commercial traveler who had
met and befriended a young lady
the train took advantage of the
short acquaintanceship and register
ed as man and wife at the Hender
son Hotel. The traveling man en
tered the young lady’s ri)om, but
she succeeded in making her escape
and threw herself upon the mercy
of a judge of the Superior Court
who was on the same floor.

pectable young woman, was going
from a neighbor's farm to her home.
She had to pass through a little
patch of woods and there was set
upon by Edward Luckie and Dick
Mitchell, negroes, aged seventeen
and eighteen years. She had on a
sun bonnet, which was closed over
her mouth, and she Was choked to
insensibility. Jim Washington,
Daniel Mack, Ed Mack, Lucius
Smart, in a cotton field by the edge
of the woods, looked on without pro
test.
Edward Luckie was captured by
Sheriff Scarborough, of Darlington,
and Washington was arrested by
Policeman Scarborough. They
held their prisoners in the woods till
da5-light, avoiding a crowd of lynch
ers. This morning when they took
the men to the courthouse the tem
per of the populace was manifest, so
the sheriff slipped Luckie out of
town in a buggy, driving to Carters-
ville, while Policeman Scarborough
took Washington by another way,
arrestine’ the other three witnesses
en route. They met at Cartersville
and arrived in Columbia at 11

Washington, Oct, 9.—A new
counterfeit $10 silver certiticate has
boirn discovered by the secret ser
vice division of the treasury. It is
of the series of 1891; check letter B;
plate number indistinct; probably
74; J. Fount Tillman, register; Mor
gan. treasurer; i>ortrait, Hendricks.
It is a dangerous photo-mechanicai
production, printed on soft paper
probably made up from two sheets
of J'.:7"»iese tissue. Green and red-
ink lines are used to imitate the-silk
fibre of the genuine. The faoe of
the note has a grayish tiKireV^iftg,
no doubt, to the use of a poor quali
ty of black ink. The color of the
seal is a trifle too dark. The back
of the note is more deceptive than
the front. The imprint of the bu
reau of engraving and printing on
the left end of the back is illegible.
During the winter of 1897 Mr.
James Reed, one of the leading cit-
izens and merchants of Clsiy Co.
W. Va., struckhisleg against*cake
of ice in such a manner as to "oruise
it severely. It became very much
swollen and pained him so badly that
he could not walk without tho aid of
crutches. He was treated by phy
sicians, also used sevral kinds of lin
iment and two and a half gallons of
whiskey in bathing it but nothing
gave him relief until he began using
Chamberlain,s Pain Balm. This
brought almost a complete cure in a
week’s time and he believes that had
he not used this remedy his leg
would have had to bo amputated.
Pain Balm is unequaled for sprains,
bruises and rheumatism. For sale
