mem be red by the readers of this

Clement, for $4 70, this sum being
paid to Owens. The cost of thr

ty and fined $10 and costs.

than the other.

of assault with a deadly weapon.
It will be remembered that young
Burtou became involved in a dif
ficultly at Spencer; with Harvey
Burke, and stabbed him so se

tal. Judge Moore had not rfrii
deredjudgment in this case when
the above was put in type.

forjrourder in thefirst degree, for
shooting and killing Hile Mc

FfaQ Curing Developo the Stimulating Aroma and Tocto
Found In Schnannn that Satlnf ien Tohrtinn Uiinfrni'
There are tfiree ways used by far
mers for curing and preparing their
tobacco for the market; namely, sun
cured, air cured nd flue cured. ' The
old and cheap wais called air cured ;
the later discovery and improved way
is called flue cured. In flue-curing
the tobaccoJs taken from the; field
and suspended over intensely hot
flues in nouses especially built to re
tain the heat, and there kept in the
proper temperature until this curing
process developes in the tobacco the
stimulating taste and fragrant aroma
found in Schnapps tobacco, just as
green coffee is made fragrant and
stimulating by the roasting process.
Only choice selections of this ripe,
juicy flue cured leaf, grown in the
famous Piedmont country, where the
best tobacco grows, are used in
Schnapps and other Reynolds' brands
of high grade, flue cured tobaccos.
Hundreds of imitation brands are
on sale that look like Schnapps; the
outside of the imitation :plugs oi to
bacco is flue cured, but the inside is
filled With cheap, flimsy, heavily
sweetened, air cured tobacco ; one
chew of Schnapps will satisfy tobacco
hunger longer than two chews of
such tobacco.
Expert tests prove that this flue
cured tbbacto, grown in the famous
Piedmont region, requires and takes
less sweetening than any other kind
and has a wholesome, stimulating;
satisfying effect on chewers. If the
kind of tobacco you are chewing don't
satisfy, more than the mere habit of
expectorating, stop fooling yourself
and chew Schnapps tobacco.
Schnapps is like the tobacco chew
ers formerly bought costing from 75c.
to $1.00 per pound; Schnapps is sold
at 50c. per pound in 5c. cuts, strictly
10 and 15 cent plugs.

A Plisenenl Happen!!!.
Pittsburg, Pa., Feb, 14. The
most phonomenal atmospher i c
disturbance ever witnessed in this
city occurred at 12:62 today.
when during a bl'ziard neveral
peals of thunder were bsard and a
flash of lightning came from the
heavens, causing a magnificent
complication of atmospheric con
ditions and frightening many par
sons.
Prof. John A, Brasnear. of the
Allegheny Observatory, who an
nounced through the Associated
Press last knight the discovery id
one of the greatest sun spots ever
called to the attention of astrono
mers, when seen regarding to
day's phenomenon, said :
" The disturbance today was
the most remarkable thing I have
ever known. In view of the gi
gantic sun spot I expected an
electrical disturbance some time
today. I thought, how e y e r,
it would take th e form o t
the aurora boreal is or that tele
graph and telephone cmmnnica
tion would be serimly affecUd
"Instead; the disturbance was
awe-inspiriug and terrible to those
who observed it. I do not want
to stand sponsor for any state
ment concerning this phenomt
enon. Unofficially, however, it
was very remarkable considering
the low temperature.
At noon today the great sun
spot, which is 118,000 miles long
and 80,000 miles wide, covering
an area of about 8,640.000,000
square miles, was directly facing
the earth. This spot is very ac
tive. Taking these facts into
consideration it is not hard for
one to stretch their imagination
and connect the cause of today's
disturbance with the sun spot.
Then aga'n, thero ia a white line
about 10,000 miles long, running
through the spt, and in my be-
liet this .white ir is responsible
jfor conditions today and any ad-f
jditioual phenomena which are
