Bowles Caught In West Virginia
Lynchburg, April 4?The negro.
Robert Bowles, who was captured
Saturday, at a farmhouse, near
Huttonsville, Randolph county, Vi.
Va, by Chief-of-Police .1 L Akire,
of thal place, was brought hen
Sunday afternoon, snd lodged in
jail. He was accompanied by Chief
of-Police Hom berger, of Clifton
Forge. Chief Akire. it is s:iid, went
lo Clifton Purge this morning, to
claim the reward offered for the
capture of Hie murderer, which
amounts in all to $450.
Bowles is charged with killing
Fireman John A Buff, in the Clif?
ton Forge yards on March 2Ut. Ile
has confessed the crime, but great?
ly fears being taken back to Clifton
Forge, realizing that he will surely
be lynched if the railroad men
there can lake him from the officers.
Chief Uorubarger stated today
that although there was some lit?
tle-excitement in Clifton Forge, he
did not apprehend any popular de?
monstration unless the negro was
takeu back there for trial. Exact?
ly what disposition will be made of
the case has not yet been decided,
but it is thought that Bowles will
haye to stand trial before a special
jury in Covington.
The negro claims to have been
in company with Kennedy, Hie
Norfolk and Western train-wreck?
er, who piloted him across the
Aileghanies, but this story is not
given much credence.

The Cause of Many
Sudden Deaths.
There is a disease prevailing in this
country most dangerous because so decep?
tive. Many sudden
deaths are caused by
it ? heart disease,
pneumonia, heart
failure or apoplexy
are often the result
of kidney disease. If
kidney trouble is al?
lowed to advance the
kidney-po iso ned
blood will attack the
'^te^iarrm.^tvi**. vital organs or the
kidneys themselves break down and waste
away cell by cell.
Bladder troubles most always result from
a derangement of the kidneys and a cure is
obtained quickest by a proper treatment of
the kidney.-. If you are feeling badly you
can make no mistake by taking Dr. Kilmer's
Swamp=Root, the great kidney, liver and
bladder remedy.
It corrects inability to hold urine and scald?
ing pain in passing it_and overcomes that
unpleasant necessity of being compelled to
go often during the day, and to get up many
times during the night. The mild and the
extraordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon
realized. It stands the highest for its won?
derful cures of the most distressing cases.
Swamp-Root'is pleasant to take and sold
by all druggists in fifty-cent and one-dollar
sized bottles. You may
have a sample bottle of,
this wonderful nev/ dis?
covery and a book that
tolls all about it, both
sent free by mail. Address Dr. Kilmer & Co.
Binghamton, N. Y. When writing mention
reading this generous offer in this paper.
