A Man Badly Cut

Prosecutor Douthit was called to Remington, Tuesday, by a dispatch saying Chat; a “a man had been all cut to pieces”. It seems that John Johnson, a man living five or Six miles northwest from Remington, and who divides his frequent periodical drunks about evenly between this town, Remington and Goodland, had got into a drunken row with a tough case in Remington, named James Jarrell,, and the latter had cut'Johnson's face and head, in a frightful manner, with a dirk knife. The wounds are numerous and long, but fortunately for Johnson, not verydeep, and the doctors say that he will soon recover. Jarrell was arrested Tuesday afternoon by a constable, but as the latter was not willing to go to the expense ot bringing him to the county seat, he was released. Sheriff Yeoman went over to look for him yesterday, but he had taken to .the com-fields south of Remington, and could not be found. ‘ Facts are stubborn things,” and sufferers from chills aud fever generally find 'their complaint a very stubborn fact, until they commence the Use of Ayer’s Ague Cure, That medicine eradicates’tfie noxious poison from the system, and iuvariabiy c'uses even, the worst cases.
