LTJM WILLIAMS' OLOSE OALL.
He Had to Whip His Weight in WiW
Oats Before He Was Safe.
Panther Knob Letter.
Lum Williams, an old mountain
eer and hnnter, of Panther moun
tain had an adventure a few days
since which he will not .soon for
get. As he sat on the porch of farmer
Peters' and told the story, be was
the picture of about as badly dil
apidated a specimen of humanity
as one sees in a life time. One
arm was carried in a sling, his
right leg rested upon a stool wrap
ped from thigh to ankle with linen
cloths, while his face, once smooth
and fresh, notwithstanding his age
of over half a century, had tho ap
pearance of having been culti
vated with a fine-pronged garden
rake from his hair to his coat
collar.
"I was going up the mountain
on a squirrel hunt with my two
squirrel dogs, Snap and Nig," said
the old mountaineer. ,(We had
gone about a mile, and I had killed
five or six squirrels, when Snap
began to bark in a fierce way
about 100 yards off. Before 1 got
to the dog Nig had joined him,
and tho two kept up a terrible
racket.
I hurried on, expecting to find
that they had treed a coon or holed
a fox. "When I got to the spot I
found the dogs had holed some an
imal in a hollow, rotten log. The
log was poplar, and about 20 feet
long, with a hole nearly a foot in
diameter at the mouth.
'The dog wouldn't go in;. I
thought that strange as they never
before went back on a fight with
a coon, and that was what I thought
was in the log. So I tried to poke
the coon, as I supposed it was, out
of the hole, but the only pole I
could get wouldn't reach. Find
ing I couldn't more the game that
way, I threw down the pole and
examined the log. I soon dis
covered that it was very rotten
and that there was a crack in it
about half way down. J made up
my mind to try and pry that log
open, and I am sorry to say I suc
ceeded. "Almost as soon as I got a stick
in the crack and began to pry, the
confounded thing flew apart and
out sprang three thundering big
catamounts. Great Scott! how
they did pitch fnto us. Two of
them sprang at me. One seized
my left arm near the shoulder and
ripped it from shoulder to wrist
with his long claws. I struck at
the brutes with the heavy oak stick
I held, and by good luck knocked
one of them over just as the other
one jnmped at my face. I couldn't
stop him, and he came down on
my lace witn both claws, ripping
through the skin and ilesh likeYed
hot irons. Just then Snap caught
the cat by tbe flank and pulled
him off. That saved-me. The
dog and 'cat rolled over and over
on the ground while I was trjing
my best, with the blood pouring
down my face, to get a blow in on
the cat. I succeeded at last in
striking it across the small of the
back as if rolled over on top of the
dog. That blow broke its back,
but it had dono for the dog, which
was torn almost into ribbons.
"I had overlooked the one I
struck in the first place, and by
this time the infernal brute had
got on its feet and sprang oh me
just as I raised from striking the
other one. This fellow did nofl
get a fair hold on me, but he got
close enough to rip my leg from
thigh" to calf with his claws. I
struck it in the face with the end
of the club, and as it dropped to
the ground 1 threw my whole lorce
in the blow, which I delivered
npon its head, knocking it over on
its back, and I beat it to death.
"The cat which had lumped at
the dogs in the first place I now
saw lying about 20 feet away, with
Nic holding it by the throat. The
cat was dead and so was the dog,
which lay with entrails torn out,
but still with a death grip on the
throat of the cat. If the dog had
ever let go of that cat I would
have been finished between them.
As it was, after the fight was over
I fainted with pain and loss of
blood, and lay, I suppose, on the
ground . ior an nour or more
When I came to I dragged myself
to tne road, naif a mile away,
where I, found water, wltn which I
bathed my wounds. Luckily for
me Peters, here, happenedto come
along and brought me to his
house."
"I have had many close fights
in my time with bears, panthers
and wildcat in these mountains,
but this one was the closest call I
ever had, and"it was all owing to
the fact that I neglected to take
a knife or pistol with me."
Sore Throat
Is particularly favorable to the contrac
tion of Diphtheria. Heed the warning,
and use Darbys Prophylactic Fluid. It
at once allays tbe inflammation of the
throat, subdues the pain and gives per
manent relief. It promptly and effectu
ally destroys all contagion and diphthe
ritic germs. It is a safeguard against
Diphtheria, and should be used on the
first symptoms of sore throat as a'gargle.
.Since January 1, 1888, no less
than 130,000 persons have left
Great Britain and Ireland to settle
in the United States. This seems
strange when it is remembered
that carpets and tone woolen cloths
are cheaper there than here.

It was a Newark man who sent
$1 in answer to an advertisement
stating that the advertiser would
impart the secret of living forever
for that small sum. The secret
was, "Don't die."
A Doable Help for the Bilious.
In addition to that chief remedial meas
urethe use ot Hostetter's Stomach Bitters
persons suffering from an acute bilious
attack, will facilitate recovery by the use at
first of milk and lime n ater and thin gruels,
andbyaveryeradual return to the use of
solid foods. Fatty substances should be ex
cluded from the diet. Blue pill Is a remedy
of doubtful safety, particularly If there bo
nausea and vomiting, frequent concomitants
of liver trouble. The Bitters, provided its
reformatory action be not retarded and
marred by gross indiscretions in diet, will
soon restore the equilibrium of and action
of tbe liver, stomach and bowels, all thiee
disordered by biliousness. In all forms of
malarial disease," which In every one of its
phases presents Indication of liver trouble,
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is the lore
most of specifics. The light of thirty j ears'
experience also shows it to be a fine remedy
for rheumatism, kidney troubles, dyspepsia,
nervousness and debility.

remedy, at last fonnd a recipe which
completely cured nnd saved him from

FABENTS CBIJIIVAIXr LIABLE,
More than half of ull deaths occur
before six years of age. An army of in
nocent, lovely children are s opt needr
lessly away each year. Parents are
criminally responsible for this. The
deatli rate of children in England is lcss
than half this. Acker's English Baby
Soother has done more to bring this
about than all otlier causes combined.
You cannot afford to b without it.
