VARNELL III TROUBLE AGAIN
Without Provocation Slays An· !
other Nan.
Tom Varnell, who several yearn
apro gained considerable notoriety in 1
the courts of Ellis and Hill counties, j
is in trouble again, this time in I
Oklahoma Territory.
From Col. T. R. Anderson, who
has just returned from a trip to
Oklahoma, we learn that on last
Thursday afternoon at about 5
o'clock, Varnell, without provoca
tion, shot and mortally wounded a
man in the town of Hobart.
It seems that Varnell was drink
ing, and was looking for trouble.
The shooting took place in a
restaurant, and the wounded man
lived until Friday night.
Varnell was at once arrested, and
is now in the Hobart jail.
It will be remembered that several
years ago Varnell killed an old man
named Land, In Hill county. He
was trifd twice In this county on a
change of venue. The verdict of
the first trial was a s«>ntf*nce of
fifteen yt-ars in prison, and which
was appealed to the higher courts,
and was reversed and remanded. In
the second trial he was given twelve
yars in prison.
Anson Rainey was at that time
district judjre.
A few weeks a^o Varnell was
pardoned by βον. Savers, and upon
training his liberty went to Okla
homa.
Sinfing Convention at Sardis.
The Kllie County Sinking Conven
tion closed its session at Hardie yes
terday afternoon. The large pavil
ion there wait filled to overflowing
with pex>ple from all over the coun
ty. It is estimated that the crowd
wa* above one thou Hand. The pood
people of Sardis had made every
preparation for the entertainment of
their guests and a most enjoyable
day was «pent. Rev. T. B. ('riddle,
of this city, preached at 11 o'clock t
and his sermon was well received
by the immense throng. At 12:30
Mr. A. M. Curry announced that
dinner would be spread under the
pavilion; that there was an abund
ance for all and that every one was
invited to march up to the tables
and be fed. That Mr. Currv did not
speak without authority was amjily
demonstrated when the good ladies
spread their baskets. There were
all kinds of meats, salads, pickles,
etc., bread, cakes and pies until you
couldn't rest. The writer never saw
a more magnificent or plentiful
spread than these good people laid
out for the enjoyment of their
guests. The hospitality of the peo
l*Je of the K*»dis community is un
bounded, and a more cordial citizen
ship cannot be found within thecon
| fines of the state. The visitor was
! made welcome from the time he
alighted on the grounds, and your
hosts seemed best pleased when you
ate all that was placed before you.
The convention at this place was
a remarkable success, and we here
venture the prediction that whenever
Sardis again asks the convention to
meet with them that it will not be
long in accepting the invitation.

my employer suggested that I try
Foley's Honey and Tar. Its effect
was almost miraculous, and I am
now cured of the disease. On my
recommendation many people have
used Foley's Honey and Tar, and
alwavs with satisfaction." Sold by

Clothing Values
THE value of a garment de*
pends in a great measure
upon the manner in which it is
made and trimmed. This is one
point upon which we lay great
stress—not alone the visible parts,
hut the invisible as well. The«
trimmings in a suit of clothes, the
linings, interlinings, etc., make its
real value. Matthews Bros.'
