fl e under the eaves of the house, and imme
diately approached him. The fire bug
jumped up, and, dropping splinters and ail,
fled. The negro pursued the fugitive, but
did not succeed in getting close enough to
him to recognize him; but he got close
enough to see that he was a negro. He
immediately went into the bouse and re
ported the matter to Mr. Fields. Mr. Fields
reported it to Officer Kemp. J. W. Joiner
and Officer Kemp immediately began to
work up the case. Tuesday they arrested a
young negro named Will Brocks and lodged

Albany Xetcs: “1 was sitting on my front
porch Sunday morning,'' said Mr. Tift to a
reporter, “reading the AVics, when I was
startled by a in ise and fluttering sound
that came from the side yard. I jumped
and ran to the end of the porch just in time
to see wbat was the matter, aud 1 witnessed
one of the miracles of my life. I have in
the p ol surrounding my fountain several
fish, trout taken from the creek, and on the
edges of the pool the grass grows* thick.
An English sparrow bad aligtited on this
grass to got some water, and one of the fish,
seeing the bird, swam near him, made a
snap ana caught him. The bird screamed
and fluttered, but it was late. When I
reached the end of the porch the fish swal
lowed the bird and went swimming around
the pool in the most satisfied way.”
Engineer Wallie Scoville of Macon had a
close call Saturday night. He took a train
out, and when nearing Byron he noticed
that the water was reaching up to the top
timber of a trestle. This caused him to
look more carefully, and in a short tune he
found himself confronted by a huge sheet
of water that completely hid the track from
view. As soon as he could get control of
bis engine he slowed up, and for a half mile
or more he crept like a snail with his train
through the water. Getting over safely he
went on his journey. Yesterday morning
on the return trip ho saw a mammoth hole
under the track big enough to hide a box car
in. When the water receded the break was
found and had been fixed. Had the en
gineer, who is happy over his escape, gone
through the waste of water a few minutes
later there is no telling what would have
happened.
The Americas Recorder relates how Prof.
Schneider of that city reoently came upon
a fiddle that was stolen from him nine
years ago. It happened in this way: He
had a a engagement at Col. Cutt’s residence
one evening aud seat his violin down by a
negro boy. Upon his arrival the professor
asked for his Instrument, aud was told that
it had never arrived. He made diligent
search for it, advertised for it, put the po
lice on notice for it, but the fiddle be longed
for never came. But after nine years’time
Officer Smith reoguizes the one stolen by
John Cummings as the professor’s. Mr.
Walker purchased it from a negro several
yea: 8 ago, and refuses to give it up to the
professor unless he is reimbursed. This the
professor refuses to do. When Mr.
Schneider saw his violin be was the happiest
man in town and no mistake, lie foel9 thut
he has found a long lost friend, even if it is
slightly faded and disfigured. Judge Pils
bury, However, dismltaed the warrant for
the possession of Prof. Schneider’s fiddle,
and returned the same to Mr. Walker, there
beluga law that when a person is in peace
able and uninterrupted possession for four
years it becomes his property. Mr. Walker
claims to have had the violin for seven
years.
CoL Anio Gatewood of Americus was
telling a number of fanners the other day
about his magnificent cotton crop, aud dur
ing the conversation told the following
startling story, which the Americus Times
gives its readers: His cotton is so thick and
tall that the sun’s rays cannot penetrate be
tween the rows, and consequently it is very
dark In the fields even at midday. Last
week a 12-year-old boy, a son of one of his
tenants, went to the field to carry his
father’s breakfast, and, missing his way in
tbe dense cotton, became completely lost.
Tbe tenant, becoming alarmed at the non
appearance of his boy at the regular time,
went to the house and secured help to
institute a search, as he well knew that
the boy would never find his wav
out of the cotton field unaided. Men
mounted on mules, in order that thoy could
see about them, rode for hours through the
dense, dark field of cotton, firing guns and
calling loudly to attract the attention of
the lost boy, while skyrockets and Homan
candles were fired at intervals into the cot
ton In the hope that he might see the light
and make his presence known. Finally,
after many weary hours had been spent in
the big fields searching for the boy, he was
found fast asleep in the forks of a cotton
stalk some five feet above the ground. The
hunters carried him home in triumph, and
to prevent a recurrence of the affair Mr.
Gatewood is having tall signal poles, with
rod flags attached, put up at distant inter
vals in his cotton fields.

Mike Ragsdale, of J. 8. Ragsdale, of this
county, came home from Texas last Mon
day afternoon. Twenty one years ago he
left Georgia and went to Texas, where he
has since resided. He has been over nearly
all of Texas, but has resided for the most
part in Northwestern Texas. He thinks
Texas is a much bettor country than Geor
gia.
“Of course,” he said in answer to a ques
tion, “Texas is a bettor country than this,
but I wouldn’t encourage people to go there,
because they might not be satisfied and
would blame me with it.
“There is any kind at country in Tex
that a man may want. Farming country,
stock country—healthy and sickly coun
try. "
“How about your cowboy experience?’
“Well, I’ve quit that, and I don’t want
many people to know that I was a oow
puncher. For ten years I was a cowboy,
and in that time I found out that a man
may be a cowboy and at the same time
live an honorable life.”
When Mr. Ragsdale came home last
Monday he intonded to go out and spend
the night with his father, whom he had not
6een in twenty-one years, without making
known his name. He walked into the
yard, and as he got near the house the dog
ran out and tried to bite him. Uncle Sink
came out and drove the dog under the
house and asked the stranger to have a seat,
which he did. Both father and son sat side
by side on the edge of the veranda. They
discussed the weather, the crops, politics
and religion. The son knew the father, but
tho father didn’t know the son.
They sat and talked for nearly an ho lr.
Uncle Sink looked at the stranger’s valise
aud thought ho was a traveling salesman
probably a fruit tree agent.
Finally the son got up and walked around
in front of the father. He gazed into his
eyes a long while. Then he said :
“Didn’t you hav@ a bad bov toloave you
about twenty-one years ago?”
Uncle Sink looked at the stranger.
Directly the forgotten features came back
to him through the long, long years.
“O Mike! it is youl”
The wriukled hands were extended, and
father and son embraced each other—
