A Peculinr and Pathetic AuguaM Nar
rative.
In connection with the recent Hmu'.l
pox acart to told quite an interwtlng
and romantic little atory of a young
Arena.n woman who rontnuTed thto
malady elsewhere and was brought
here for treatment.
Tho young tolly In question received
a tetter from her Aanqe, who had gone j
to war. that/he had a furlough and
would soer.d U with her and his fam
ily ]n hto eagerness to economise hia
time ho naked her to m et him at hto
mother'* homo In Mldvlllc. Thto she
did, bat before ho left the train he
discovered and wrote them that he had
broken out with wbat ho thought was
measlca and that' probably he had best
not come homo. They, however, wore
not at all nfrald of catching measles
and told him to come on Immediately
Thto ho did and it wa* discovered that
be bad a genuine ease of smallpox and
two of tho family and hto sweetheart
contracted the disease from him. Tho
elate of hto feelings can bo imagined
when this tody without knowing h#r
malady was sent here for treat moat
and was at once taken to the [rest
house. Her case was very light, nnd
after an Illness of four weeks she was
ytwterdav dismissed, her clothing thor
oughly fumigated and Is again quite
we'l. The awewthearte are, If possi
ble, even more fond of each other than
heretofore from the fact of their hav
ing passed through the same dread ex
perience at the same time.

In the t:M class sad axata won In
three straight beat* Oa the thtrd day
ah» started In tbe S:M rtoaa and dis
tanced her held in the second heat.
This was three days hard raring, es
pecial!** for a foqr-jtoT-old horse who
had been a cripple only a abort time
before.
Mr. J< n#e after thto exhibition of
brth speed and gatneneae, concluded
that he wa* the ewaer of a race horse,
incite M. then went ahead and awn the
j free for all trot at Waycraaa. Go.
heating the famous Odd Bocks. She
then won rare* at Charleston, Savan
nah. Augusta. Columbia and Washing
ten. N. C- coming ba h to Augusta
from the latter place. While cam
paigning In Souihweat Georgia a very
rich turpentine man saw and admired
the horse. He asked Mr. Jones to put
a price upon her. but he refused. The
tntpcntlne man insisted, and as Mr.
Jcncs stated, he did not want to scare
him to death, so he merely toplled th*!
be had refused an offer of $2,000. made
by a Thomasvllle horseman.
On the first of May thto year the
horse wai shipped to the trainer, Thay
i #r, at 1-exlnglon. Ky.. and It ha* been
from thto point that the marveloua and
i phcncmlnal report* of the horte's trsai*
i have come. About a month ago It
• was wired all over the country that th#
' Lpxington track record had been
broken bv the mare, the time being
3014 seernd*. I.ater ahe trotted the
full mile In 2:11*4-
Froni lyexingtca the horse w*» sent
to Canada, winning the first race this
year at Windsor, a purse of SBOO. in the
2:17 class.
Belle M. starts thto week at Cleve
land, Ohio, in the 2:23 class, the purse
being $2,500.
From Cleveland the hor*o will be
taken through the Grand Circuit by
Thayer, ending the season at Lexlng
tfrrt In October.
Confident cf Her.
Mr. Jonc* is very sanguine that be
fore the summer is over the horse will
have covered herself with glory and
swelled Mr. Jones' hank account.
Thto to quite reasonable in view of
j 'vbnt the horse has done and her age,
| only six years old, when it to retnem
-1 tiered that Goldsmith Maid was 14
1 years old. Maud S. R years nnd Sunol
| 8 years old when they made their re
: spectlve records.
! Belle M's sire is Kankakee, he by
1 Mambrino, whose dam was Strath
! more. Her dam is unknown, but sho
| was 20 years old when Belle M. was
] foaled. She is a rich colored chestnut,
j with one white hind foot. She has a
| high head, with very long mane and
tail, and her stride, when in action, to
22 feet. She is nervous nnd high
strung, like all well bred racers, but
she is very intelligent and sensible.
| Mr. Jones is likely to have some very
large offers for bis horse if she fulfils
| his expeevations. Mr. Jones states that
I the mare, years ago. when a colt on
the Kansas ranges in company
with a large number of other an!amis,
could ensity keep at'the head of the
herd by troiting. wtrtle all the other

tbe grass In tbe green.
I Tb* authorities hare done much j
[within tbe pa*i year to beautify the
city—notably ta the case of laying n?w
j pavement*, beginn a# with the north
and south street*, from which they
will go cm to the street* lying east and
west but Greene street still remain*
a charming wilderness
A number of suggestions have been
made for vast Improvement*. To re
surface with ravel or broken s'onr
the driveway on either s.de of the
green will be to make It possible for a
drive down thto moat lovely of street*
to be at leait endurable. Jn*t now the
mud hole* and uneven place* cause
the*# on pleasure bent to direct th#ir
horses’ h#ad* to any place In prefer
ence to thto which would most natur
ally be selected.
Beauty a* well as utility would be
served by sodding the green on either
*lde. and curbing It with a terrace
effect. Down the centre should be a
bard gravel path for cyclists and pe
destrians First of all. though, the
posts down the centre of the green
must be moved. Not only are they un
sightly In the extreme, but they are
exceedingly dangerous to cyclists, and
have caused more than one really ser
ious tumble.
It has been estimated by those who
are In a position to understand these
things that SIO,OOO or $15,000 will be
required to make these much needed
improvements. There is a movement
on foqt to make an appropriation for
this purgkis* next year, and it is prob
able that it will be done, and (hat
lower Broad will be included in the
improvement.
