Xgainst Carrying Weapons.
Following the lines laid down by
Judge Smith at the last term of crim
inal court when he sentenced two
young men to the penitentiary for car
rying concealed deadly weapons, the
authorities of DuBois Intend to enforce
the law in this regard more strictly
than ever. The foreign population
have a penchant for lugging revolvers,
knives, billies and other sanguinary
tools of bloodshed which they use freely
when in liquor or a quarrel arises.
Hereafter when these gentry are detec
ted with artillery or cutle'ry in their
possession they will be taken up and
prosecuted and not only made subject
to a heayy fiQe but made liable to take
a journey down the river. Natlye born
toters of guns will meet a like fate if
the thlnor carried on their hip comes
under -the eye or to the knowledge of
the police. It Is believed that by break
ing up the habit many people will, be
discouraged from always having weap
onsandy where they can use them
when heated by passion. DuBois
Express.
The Best Pills Ever Sold
"After doctoring 15 years for chronic
indigestion, and spending over two hun
dred dollars, nothing has done me as
much good as Dr. King's New Life
Pills. I consider them the best pills
ever sold," writes B. F. Ayscue, of
