heap, its legs crossed and corded together,
and in that condition is transported in open

SLAIN WHILE HE SLEPT.
A Negro of Bad Reputation Killed
Near Buena Vista.
Buena Vista, Ga., June 7.—This week’s
issue of the Patriot contains the following
account of a tragedy that may end in a
murder trial:
“A negro named Rich Perry was killed
Saturday night on Mrs. Brown’s place on
the line of Chattahoochee and Marion
counties. The negro bad been to Columbus
and returned home drunk, when he
proceeded to beat his wife and
daughter. He left with bis daughter to
take her away, but he.did not go very far
before he was overcome with stupor and lay
down by the roadside and went to sleep,
from which he never awoke, having been
killed by some party or parties during the
tracks of the murderers.
"Tracks of different sizes were seen lead
ing off m different directions from where
the body lay. It is thougnt that the authori
ties have a clue by which the
guilty parties can be brought to jus
tme. Perry did riot enjoy a very enviable
reputation among the people of his section,
either white or black, as he had
figured in court as a witness against many
of them. He has been here as a witness,
and it is said he always managed to get on
the state’s side as a witness in cas;s in other
counties than his own, in order to obtain
the per diem usnallv paid suoh witnesses.”

A DOUBLE KILLING.
V?ife Murder in Dodge Followed by
the Death of the Slayer.
Eastman-, Ga., June 7.—The issue of the
Times, just out, says: “We learn that on
Sunday morning last Jesse Poke, an old
negro man living on the plant ition of Sam
Lewis, about fifteen miles east of Eastman,
murdered his wife in a most brutal
manner, beating her almost insensible
and then shooting her three times with
a pistol. From what we can learn the
particulars are about as follows: Early
Sunday morning some of the hands heard
Jesse abusing and whipping his wife, but,
as it was a frequent occurrence, paid but
little attention to it; but later iu the day
three pistol shots were heard to emanate
from the house, and upon investigation it
was found that Jesse had murdered his
wife.
GUARING THE CORPSE.
“When the crowd gathered they found
the murderer sitting on the front steps and
the door of the cabiu closed. He
told them he intended leaving the
ph.ca and leisurely walked away.
The crowd forced the door open and a
ghastly sight met their eyes. Lying on
the floor, in a pool of blood, was the dead
woman. The spe .’tutors were appalled and
excitement ran nigh. A crowd was quickly
formed, determined to capture the demon
in human form and bring him to speedy
justice, but despite their efforts to overtake
him, the murderer made good his escape.
SLAIN BY HER GRAVE.
“The next day. when the friends of the
murdered woman had gathered around the
open grave preparatory to lowering the
body to its last resting place, the murderer
stealthily approached near the scene.
As soon as he was discov
ered he was ordered to throw up
his hands and surrender, but instead of do
ing so, he ran off, and ns be ran, several in
the party fired uoon him, killiug him almost
instantly. The coruor was summoned and
rendered a verdict iu accordance with the
facts above stated.”
SHOT A PLAYMATE DEAD.
Fatal Result of Carelessly Handling
a Musket.
Tallahassee. Fla., June 7.—News has
just reached here of a sad tragedy which
occurred near Crawfordville a few daj’s
since. George Trice, son of Rev. Mr. Trice,
and Zach Smith, both lads of about 14
years of age, were out hunting. They had
an old army musket with a bayonet.
Finally they fell to scuffling and playing.
Smith had the musket, cocked it,' and
threatened to shoot Trice, who had
the bayonet. At the same moment each
laid down his weapon and rushed in to
capture that of the o her. Trice got the
musket and S nith the bayonet. Not know
ing that the muskot was cocked. Trice
brought it up to his hip and cold Smith that
if he attacked him with the bayonet he
would shoot. Smith made a lunge with the
bayonet, and, almost unconsciously, Trice’s
finger pressed the trigger, the full charge
taking effect in Smith’s body. The wounus
proved fatal, and Smith died next day.
THE RESULT OF CARELESSNESS.
From what the Morning News corre
spondent can learn, the whole matter re
sulted from boys’ carelessness and rough
play. When your correspondent’s infor
mant left Crawfordville the coroner’s jury
was holding an inquest, but had not
brought in a verdict. Young Trice is a
brother of J. C. Trice of the editorial staff
of the Tallahassean. The lad's father is a
prominent Baptist minister. Zach Smith,
the lad killed, had the reputation of being
very reckle-s and wild, and it is thought
that his own rashness brought on bis deatn.
A VASE FULL OF GOLD.
A Wakulla Man Claims to Have Found
It Wtyile Plowing.
Tallahassee, Fla., June 7.—W. R.
Hill, who lives just within the edge of
Wakulla county, south of Tallahassee, bad
the experience the other day of feeling for a
few minutes that he was very rich, and
then letting some other fellow walk
off with the rich, shining gold.
He was plowing in his field and
his plow struck against some bard object
and refused to go farther. He dug down
with his hands and exposed to view a large
Indian pottery vase. His curiosity being
aroused, he tried to remove it, but found it
firmly embedded in the soil. Picking up a
sbine, he broke a small hole in the pot and
found it filled with shining gold coin. Be
coming excited, he rushed off to the house,
a quarter of a mile distant, to get a hoe to
dig it out. Upon bis return he found the
hole, but the pot and gold had disappeared.
TRACKS IN THE MUD.
He found tracks in the soft earth and
followed them for a considerable distance,
but failed to overtake the fellow who had

walked off with his tlnd. He wai in Talla
hassee yesterday warning the business men
that it any oue presented gold coins
of ancient date* they must grab
him on the spot. Hill save be is going to
have that gold if he has to hunt tbe state
over for tho fellow who jumped bis claim.
Hill was so excited that he did not examine
or pocket any of the coins, but says he
thinks they ere old Spanish doubloons and
calf doubloons.
RATTLESNAKE RECEPTION.
Two Fine Specimens for a German
University.
From th* Hartford Times.
Something new in the way of receptions
is being held for a few days in the parlors
of the Rev. S. M. Stiles' residence. No. 141
Washington street. Last summer a para
graph was printed in the Times to the
effect that Mrs. Stiles would be pleased to
receive specimens of the rattlesnake for
shipment to Germany, where her son,
Charles W. Stiles, is pursuing a course of
studies in the sciences. A few responses
were received, and oue specimen was for
warded to Leipsic, where it was highly
prized on account of the extreme rarity
of such a variety of the serpent family in
foreign laboratories. Yesterday two* fine
specimens, mates, a male and female, were
received from John 11. Sage, the well
known ornithologist of Portland, this state,
frho had secured them from their captor, a
professional rattlesnake hunter, somewhat
locally famed in that vicinity. Both snakes
are in perfect condition, having been
caught with a forked stick which held them
securely by tbe neck to the ground until
dead. They are tightly sealed in a large
glass jar filled with alcohol, and were thus
presented by Mr. Sage to Mrs. Stiles for her
son. The male lacks but little of being
four feet in length—being 44% inches; and
he has five rattles. The femaie is nearly as
long, and she also has five rattles. That
they were mates is shown by the fact that
after one was caught, the other appeared,
h ivmg f .Bowed the trail, and was also kill
ed. 'ibis trait of the suake kingdom has
been demonstrated on many occasions. It
is said—but it seems a tough story—that a
snake has been known to follow its mate
even when tbe latter was carried in a
wagon a distance of fifty miles. This ser
pent trait, which seems to be most strongly
marked in the venomous species, is made
the means for the most startling and terri
ble part of one of Eugene Sue’s most
powerful romances—“Aiar-Gul.” a ro
mance of one of the French West India
isles; the snake, in that story, being evi
dently a fer de lance, which the cunning
but vengeful negro knows will follow the
trail of Its beheaded mate, even into the
baa-room of the young lady betrothed to
his youpg master.
The two specimens of the rattlesnake
tribe on exhibition in Mrs. Stiles’ parlor
for a few days are strikingly marked in the
diamond pattern. (The variety is the
Crotalus horridus, though we believe the
Crotahto durissus is als) a common species
of rattlesnake in the neighborhood of Port
land, as elsewhere between the Carolina*
and Mount Tom.) The corn-yellow,
merciless eye and diamond-shaped fiat
head, speak only of malice —a malice which
is backed by the power of dealing death;
and death in a swift aDd horrible form.
These specimens will be forwarded to Leip
sic, Germany, by tbe United States
Express. One of the specimens will
go to a member of the royal family of Aus
tria, a scientist who has been working with
Mr. Stiles in the laboratory at Leipsic. The
other will be used for scientific purposes in
the Leipsic University.
Young Mr. Stiles is a graduate of the
high school. After a 3-ear and a quarter at
Wesleyan University, he went abroad four
years ago. He first took one semester at
the Paris University; the four semesters at
the Berlin Uuiversity, and is now conclud
ing his third semester at Leipsic,, where he
will take his degree in July. He will then
take a post graduate semester at the Marine
Zoological University at, Naples, and one
semester under Pasteur at Paris, when he
will return home next summer.
A HIGH-SCHOOL GIRL'S GAME.
“Swaps" Is the Name Applied to a
Gobslp Trading Scheme,
front the Washington Post.
‘Til do swaps with you.”
She was a delicious high-school girl: one
of those demure, pink-cheeked bits of human
ity, so childishly frank, so womanly clever;
one of the dear things in quaint gowns, big
hats, high-shoulder capes, and long, wrin
kled gloves.
“Indeed I will,” continued the lovely bud.
“I’ll do swaps with’ you, ’pon honor, too.”
"Swaps. Well, what on earth is, or are,
swaps?”
“You don’t know what swaps are;” and
a shade of velvet pity softened the maiden’s
bright eyes as she" looked at mamma’s
friend.
“No, Elsie, dear.” And the worldly wise
woman blushed at her own ignorance.
“My, my,” cooed Elsie, "how funny.”
“Well, I’ll tell you all about it. Now we—
that is, you and I—make a bargain for
swaps—real, genunine swaps—nothing you
made yourself or asked for. Well, you just
keep my swaps all stored up, and I do yours.
Then when you see me, you or I say quick,
‘Got a swap for you.’ Then we both yell as
quick as lightning, ‘Last go!’ Seel The one
who says ‘Last go’ first gets the swap.”
“But what on earth is the swap, dear?”
persisted the lady.
“Oh!” said the high-school girl, shrug
ging her shoulders, “ swaps are anything
good.”
"Anything good? They’re not to eat”’
ventured (he candidate for initiation.
“To eat!” shrieked Elsie, iu a tone of dis
gust, and she actually let fail her bag of
taffy. ‘To oat? Well, I should say not; it’s
to hear things people say about you, compli
ments on your eyes or hair or your clotnes
or your mind. See?”
The lady was about to admit that she was
familiar with swaps, but
“When ycu say ‘l’ve got a swap for you,’
and then yell, Last go!’ before the other girl
does, she has to give you one first, or you
can just hold her back for days and days
and make her just wild. You see, its ‘pon
honor, and she can’t make ‘em up or ask
anybody to do them on purpose. The fun
you get holding her swap back would be a
neap improved if you didn’t feel so mean to
wait so long for other people to say nice
things about you.”
The child is father to the man, and the
Washington high-school girl is ra:>ther to
the society woman. The schoolgirl’s game
of “swaps” is nothing more or less than the
legitimate business of society, only the trade
among tha schoolgirls is dignified Dy perfect
frankness, and has the advantage of such
limitations and restrictions as “ ’pon honor,”
which apparently do not obtain in the con
ventional drawing-room.
Conversazione.
This delightful entertainment will be
given at No. 88 State street from 6 o’clock
to 8 o’clock on Thuesday afternoon, June
10, for the benefit of the organ fund of
Christ Episcopal church. Refreshments
will be served, and Messrs. Muckewhir (and
Walker will sing. The admission fee is
only twenty-five cents, refreshments in
cluded, and as the object is such a worthy
one the entertainment should be well pat
ronized.
Admiral William Huksakes. of Anna, 111 ,
who has just returuet from Pulaski, in Pulaski
county, reports that a colored farmer who has
lived in that vicinity for years is turning white.
The first indication of the change was the ap
pearance of white spots on his face. These
have grown until some of them are as large os a
silver dollar, and they are still getting bigger. As
the rest of the man's face is a coal-black color,
these white seots give him an odd, piebald ap
pearance. His health is not affected by the
color of his skin, and he is entirely unconcerned
about it.
Near Thomson an adventurer was hanged, in
a hollow, at the forks of three roads during the
war. The hanging was by a mob of outraged
citizens. Residents in McDuffie county, Georgia,
say that piaae is haunted'now, and that a head
less horseman is often seen riding rapidly out
of the haunted hollow. A negro
can’t be induced to pass the
place alone, even in day time, and though
most of the white people hoot at the idea of its
being haunted, they manage to give it a wide
berth night and day.
