Columbus Enquirer-Sun: In the month
of March, 1882, t iere was born ton Russian
lady of high family one of the most extru
ordi ary malformations ever known to the
civilized world. It was viewed with open
eyed wonder by the most learned medical
men of tho time, and the newspapers of the
day filled column after column with de
scriptions of it. Its formation was more
like the usual conception of the person of
the arcu fiend himself than anything else.
A hideous head, surmounted with horns
and tusks protruding from its mouth, with
claws for hands, elovon hools for feet and a
tail two feet long; it was a demon, in lead,
lin appearance, it lived three years and
' live months, when it died, and was em
balmed by the mummy process, known only
to the Egyptians, preserving it as perfectly
as life. A Mr. Vance has the chil l now on
exhibition at Exposition park, where it is
viewed with awe and astonishment by hun
dreds of people daily. Dr. J. W. Cameron
stated yesterday that he had read much of
it in the medical journals, and upon exami
nation pronounced it iu every respoot as
i epre ented.
A rowd of half-grown youths attempted
to mob Dr. H. C. Cook at Atlanta Monday
night. About 7 o’clock Dr. Cook was sit
ting in his store at the corner of Decatur
and Moore streets, when Frank Alims, who
was charged with being implicated in ttie
killing of Amorous Christophine, and was
released trom jail Monday afternoon,
walked to tho door and said: “Hello, Doc,
I will pay you that quarter I owe you in a
few days.”* “All right, Frank,” replied Dr.
Cook; “I nm glad to see you out.” Just
then six other boys came up, among whom
were Lon Beak and Harvey Shackleford.
“Look,” said Peak, “wo have sworn Alims
out of jail for kdling old Chr.stophine, and
now we are g ling to send you after
the old Italian.” “Why, what have
I done?” asked Dr. Cook. “That
makes no difference,” replied Peak; “we
are going to kill you.” “Yes, kill toe
,” put in iShackl ford. Dr
Cook replied: “I don’t reckon you boys
will mob me in my store,” and he started
behind the counter. Shackleford drew a
knife and Peak grabbed Dr. Cook by the
collar. The doctor picked up a small iron
weight and struck Peak on the head and
made him retreat a few steps. Some of the
boys began to crowd behind the counter,
and Dr. Cook picked up a five-shooter and
ordered them to leave the store. There was
danger in the doctor’s eyes, and the boys
went out into tho street. Dr. Cos >k,
fearing further trouble, and not wishing to
be forced to kill any of tiie b ys,
closed up his store and went up Deca
tur street. The crowd of yomgst'rs
followed him, and Dr. Cook was forced to
go into a grocery store for protectio i. The
police were informed of what had taken
place, and Patrolmen Starnes and Harper
arrested Frank Mims and Harvey Shackle
ford, and Patrolman Walton arrested Lo i
Peak. Dr. Cook does not think Alims ad
anything to do with the attack. Mims is
aixiut 14 years of age, Poak is about 18 and
Shackleford about lti.

Dr. Pope of Fernandiua has invented a
mail bag and 1 ck which promire: to prove
a success. The bag is made of plated steal
wire and so const: ucted that wh -n empty it
can be folded up so as not to oocup r more
than one-third the space of the ordinary
mail bag; but the principal part of tbedoc
tor’s invention is the lock, w hich is simple
and easily a: and quickly manipulated, and
possesses the additional advantage of hold
ing the bag squarely open without the aid
of the nails or pegs that are necessary for
this pure sc with old-fashione 1 bags. Th >
doctor claims that his invention can lie
manufactured at a cost of about one-fifth
that of the leather bag, and that it will
stand m >re wear. He has applied for a
patent.

huge tank, and thence distributed to all
parts of the grove, into which the railroad
company has lately run a side track, for
convenience in loading oranges. The com
pany has also erected a very neat little
depot of a fanciful design, on the ground
formerly occupied by the unprotected plat
form that had previously served for Belair

B. F. Oliveros of St. Augustine Will leave
in a few days for New York to arrange for
the settlement of the estate of Eugene Mc-
Guire, n Catholic priest, brother to the
famous old Sergt. McGuire of Fort Marion
fame. Eugene McGuire, a priest, had ac
cumulated an estate wort i in the neighbor
hood of $50,000. He became an invalid,
wont to Franco for his health, and there died.
A will was left in which he bequeathed
his entire estate, library, etc., to various
Catholic institution*. According to the
laws of New York state, a will ignoring the
existence of heirs, when heirs are living, is
null and void. The|will was some time ago
tested in Now York, found to bo invalid,
and the estate was transferred to trustees,
of which Mr. Oliveros is one. As the heirs
are quite numerous, a partition was neces
sary and with intricacies of law quite diffi
cult. Mr. Oliver >s will go into the courts
and sue for a partition in behalf of J. Mc-
Guire of St. Augustine, whom he repre
sents.
Jacksonville 7 imes-Union: Tfie latest
issue of the Medical Record, contains the
following: ‘•The fever at Jacksonville dies
hard. On Nov. 13, despite a frost, there
were reported thirty new cases The total
number of cases now is 4,511, with 388
deaths.” The Record is a leading authority
in medical matters in this country, and en
joys a wide circulation among the profes
sion, its statements bein r always regarded
as authentic and unprejudiced. It has,
however, made a serious blunder here —one
which is likely to convey the impression
that our fever here is of a type
that lrost will r.ot kill, and which
will, therefore, be prevalent throughout
the winter. We beg to inform the Record
that alight frost is universally conceded to
hnvo no perceptible effect up >n tho disease.
The a ivent of a killing frost, however,
seals its dmm. There has been no frost in
Jacksonville so far this season; the mercury
has once or twice fallen below the “frost
point,” but tho frost itself did not put in an
appearance.
Convicted Out of His Own Mouth.
from the Macon (Oa.) Telegraph.
Chandler Jones, a negro, is in jail for a
burglary ou Mr. Milton’s store at Hazlo
hurst. The circumstances of his detec! ion
are peculiar, and the work was done by De
tective E. A. Wilson, who found nothing in
the way of a clue except an apple, out of
which two bites had been tuken. He at
once noticed that the two front teeth of tho
biter were not only irregular, but peculiar.
He imagined that when the biter was a boy
an old tooth re nahiing iu the gum caused n
now tooth t > grow one-sided. The apple
was placed in water so os to prevent shrivel
ling, and, keeping his secret to himself,
Wilson went down to Baxley, where Le
know a number of loafing negroes.
Walking ituo a store he bought some ap
ples aud, biting one, said to a well-dressed
negro who hml attracted Ills attention, “Try
One.” The negro accepted the gift, and
when he raised the apple to his mouth for
a second bite the handcuffs were placed on
his wrist. There never was a more aston
ished negro. He was under arrest so quickly
that ho was unable to offer any resistance.
Ho gave his name as Chandler Jones, and
w.is found to be wearing a suit of clothes
and a watch and chain taken from Mr. Mil
ton.
Jones was taken to the store, where ha
showed how ho obtained entranoe on the
night of the burglary, and how the first
tu.ug 16 saw was a bariolof apples He
piesad up one, and after two bites laid it
down o.i Mr. Milton’s desk.
