It is a good sign that not one of the Chi- I cago anarchists has avowed and defended ; his crime. If they have done so many peo ple have been induced to believe that a ! murderous villain who calls himself a soci- j I ulist is on a higher plane than a murder- went visiting and left Miss Bacon incharge ''v lna “® 8 '"l philanthropic ofthe house._ They had not been gone i linposlfible 8 ' that delusiml wil] be Bryan county. A young white lady, Miss Lizzie Bacon, was the victim, and the per petrator was Henry Smith, a burly negro Miss Bacon lived in the family of a rela tive, Mr. John Morrison, whose home is a few miles from Eden, in Effingham county. Last Thursday Mr. Morrison mid his wife - gone long betore Smith, who worked for Mr. Morrison, approached the house, and dial ing Miss Bacon alone, as ho knew he would, assaulted her. In the struggle that ensued the young woman was brutally handled. Before releasing her it was said that the fiend choked her until she was nearly dead, and then barbarously attemp ted to cut her tongue out so that she would not be able to inform on him. He suc ceeded in cutting a piece off her tongue and then released her. GUARDING THE HOUSE. Fearing that his victim might; alarm the neighborhood, Smith stayed around tiie house all day Thursday and through the night to prevent her from going to some of the neighbors. All of that time the un fortunate young woman was at the brute’s mercy. Not until some time Friday did the wretch leave. As soon as he was gone his victim, although suffering terribly, gave ari alarm. The neighbors hastiiy gathered and scoured the country. In a few hours the negro was found by two men, who seized him and disarmed him. Smith was extremely violent and ■surly. By a sudden movement lie seized a gun from one of his captors, shot at the other and ran. THE VILLAIN’S ESCAPE. Luckily the load did not strike either of the guards. Shots were fired after pim, and it was reported that he was wounded in one arm. A special dispatch to the News from Eden last night confirms the above ac count and says that the people are in pur suit and hope to recapture the villain at an early date, when he will either be hung or Burned. Some of the passengers on the morning train gave the name of another lady, Miss Sailie McMillan, of Bullock county, os the victim. ANOTHER STORY. A special to the News from another cor respondent says that Miss McMillan was attacked on her way home from the school which she teaches. Her assailant is de scribed as a powerful negro who was em ployed by the lady’s brother as a driver. The story of the capture and escape agrees with the Smith account. The dispatch stated that it was expected that he would try to take a night train at Eden. Armed men were on the lookout for him all night at that point. SCOURING THE COUNTRY. An Effingham county man, who was in terviewed yesterday, stated that he in tended to return home at night and would then drive fifteen miles to the scene of the outrage and join in the search. Every body for miles around is scouring the country, he said, and there is hardly a possibility that the negro will escape un punished. The same party, who Is a highly respectable citizen of Effingham, declared that Smith will be burned if taken. It was contemplated that if he was not captured last night a thorough search would be made to-day. Odilltii-H, YVli iillh mill Curious. “Nothing but the air admitted free,” is a notice in one Chicago theater. A professional beggar who died recently in Rio Janeiro left a fortune of $200,000. In Leominster. England, are two trees, an oak and ash, having but a single trunk, to the height of four feet. A six-pound fish jumped out of the river near Pontiac, 111., and landed in the bot tom of a boat filled with little girls. A West Point correspondent, describing Cranston’s hotel at that place, says: “It is ex-cathedra in appointment and ser vice.” A deacon of a Greenville (Penn.) church has a string of buttons half a yard long. They have been taken out of the collec tions of the church during the past few years. The longest clock pendulum in the world is at Avignon, France. It is 67 feet long, mid requires four and a half seconds to ■swing through an are of nine and a half feet. In Mrs. Killian’s house, near Sundown, D. T., lightning smashed the family lamp, injuring no one, and then leaped to the stable, killing all the horses, cattle, and chickens. A Thomaston, (Me.,) sheepowner, whose flock has suffered from dogs, sends in a bill of damages which includes $50 for chasing dogs and $45 for “ worriment.” The whole bill was over $400. Yankee advertisement: “Lost—A good rubber boot; on the road from North Scituate Beach to Scituate Centre. I have the other. Will buy or sell. Address L. W. Cook, North Scituate.” W. D. Howells is writing another story. He was asked how long it would be and replied: “About as long as the ‘Lady of Aroostook.’ ” She was probably a little more than five feet in length. A Chilli Marriage. Jefferson (Ga.) Herald. Last Saturday evening Pleasant J. Rob erts, Esq., was called upon to marry a couple at the residence of Cal Smith, in Randolph’s district. Arriving at the house, he found it crowded with youngsters, among whom were school children. With some difficulty Mr. Roberts found the happy couple, and soon pronounced them “nfan and wife.” The groom was William Thornton, aged 14 years, who had run away from his father to get married, the bride was Mattie Smith, the adopted daughter of Cal Smith, aged 15 years. Young as this couple may seem the match was made as readily as if Thornton had been a widower courting his third wife. On the first visit he asked the girl to be his wife, on the second obtained the mother’s consent, on the third the bride s father gave his consent. Just at this point some one informed Thornton that license must be had before the ceremony could be performed, when it becomes his painful duty to confess to all concerned that he was unable to pay for the license. But the children at Mr. Emory Pharr s school, anxious to know that the law would at tlieir own convenience make eaeii of them the happy head of a household, made up the requisite $1 50 by subscription sent for the license and the squire, anil witnessed the marriage of the child Y^hat appeared so fraught with fun to the youngsters and joy to the young couple may prove to be the spring ot sorrow and disappointment. fciTYW A Valuable Beuieily. BrandrethG Pills have been used by millions of human beings. Their success is founded upon the theory of reason, and an attentive observation ot symptoms or disease. Whatever makes bad digestion breeds disease, and whatever makes good digestion cures disease. Brandreth s l ms make good digestion, purify the remove all bad humors out of the body by the organs of the stomach and bowels. They act in harmony with vital action and work of nutrition; the strength increases, the skin and the eye become clear, and tne symptoms of the malady are surely ren dered milder by their ubb. They are harm- for all ages and conditions. Simmons' Iron Cordial sends red blood to the cheeks of the sickly one and strength to the muscles, by giving an n,>- I petite, aiding digestion and building up the system.

The Chicago anarchists claim that j their aim was to elevate tlieir fellowmen. It looks now as if their fellowmen would soon elevate them,—Somerville Journal. Once ujion a midnight dreary, I was tossing weak and weary, For I had a lit of ague, And my bones were very sore.

The bloorl of man has much to do in t-haping his actions during his pilgrimage through this troublesome world, regardless of the amount oi present or expectant money in pocket or stored away in bank. It is a conceded fact that we ap pear as our blood makes us, and the purer the blood, the happier, healthier, prettier and wiser we are: hence the oft-repeated interrogatory. "bow is yonr blood ?*’ With pure streams y>f life* •riving fluid coursing through our veins, bounding through our heart*, and ploughing through our physical frames, our morals become better, our constitution stronger, our intellectual faculties more accute and grander, and men, women and children happier, healthier and more lovely.

Atlanta, Ga., has been troubled for several months with an ugly form of catarrh, attended with :i copious and offensive discharge from both nostrils. • Her system became so affected and reduced that she was confined to bed at my house for some time, and received the attention of three physicians, and used a dozen bottles of an exten sively advertised blood remedy, ull without the least benefit. She finally commenced the use of B. B. B., with a decided improvement at once, and when ten bottles had been used, she was entirely cured of all symptoms of catarrh.
