fire-place and the child playing about the
room She had hardly left the house when
the child got to near the fire that its clothes
commenced burning. The child cried out

flesh. Parties who were near by rushed in
and found the little negro almost enveloped
in flames. Blankets were thrown around it
and the fire put out, but the child was badly
burned.

On July 23 last Thomas T. Pope, an old
and respected citizen of Fulton county, died
and left an estate worth about $20,000.
Fope was 72 years of age. Ten months be
fore his death he married a second time, his
bride being Miss Martha Strickland of
Fuiton county. She was some thirty-five
years her husband’s junior, and the chil
dren of Mr. Pope were not plearod with
the marriage. Mr. Pope had five children
by his first wife, who are uow living
and all grown. May 15 last Mr.
Pope made a will in which he left his young
wife only SBoO. The will was filed and Mon
day was the day set for probating it. Bv
the will Mr. Pope’s children were to get all
of the property except SSOO, which was to
go to the widow. Charles tv. Pope, the
eldest son, was appointed executor. Some
time after drawing the will Mr. Pope
deeded most of his property to bis children.
Mrs. Pope was on hand Monday to contest
the will. She has also brought an action to
have the deed set aside.
The would-be murderer, Zich Rouse, has
escaped, and the Macon police force l%s
beeu effectually fooled. After tiie bagnio
brawl of last week, in which Rous© at
tempted to kill two people aid then to carry
out the laws of retributive justice by com
mitting suicide, he was carried to the Com
mercial hotel, badly wounded. Since then
he has lingered between life and death, ac
cording to Dr. Ferguson and his sorely af
flicted father and brothers, who
were in attendance. A warrant was
taken out for R use and
a detectivo placed in the hotel, with stiict
instructions not to permit him to escape.
Detective Patterson was fooled by the
physicians Sunday afternoon. Rouse was
m bis room critically ill and might die in a
few hours. The doctor said his life blood
bad flowed in such quantities that he was
too weak to live. Notwithstanding the flow
of blood the bird had fluwn wheu m rning
came, and where his anxious relatives are
nursing him is a complete mystery.
Georgia and Florida will have the
heaviest tourist travel the coming season

ple be tust who were on tLir way to South
Georgia and Florida. Usually t is traval
dim uot set in well until November anil
Daorn ber. He oould not explain it to
bmiself, and approached a group of
passengers, and without letting them
know his position, asked them what
was bringing them aouth so early this
year. On* of them answered: "You kuo*

Thomas Alexander, who is selling jewelry
at auctiou in Atlanta, is In trouble. A
countryman appeared at the police station
Monday and stated that be went in'o the
auction place Monday morning and was
looking on while the art icles were being sold.
Finally a watch was put up, and a slick
looking fellow came up to him and requested
him to Did $lO for tbe watch. The sliek-
j looking individual stated that he wanted it,
but didn’t want to do tbe bidding, and
merely wanted the countryman to do the
b : dding. The farmer visitor was oblig
ing and bid in the watch for $lO. He
explained why be did it, but the man
who wanted the watch was nowhere to be
seen. The auctioneer informed him that
he had nothing to do with that and the
buyer-in would have to take it. The coun-
tryman protested, but his protest did no
good. He was told tnat it was a sheriff's
auction, and that if he didn't take the
wa'.CJ he would be put in tbe penitentiary.
Thus frightened he paid toe $lO and took
the watch. At the police station he showed
a watch that might be worth a coupie of
dollar . A exanJer was arrested.
A special from Gordon to the Macon
Telegraph says: "Asertoussbo ting scrape
occurred about live miles from Gordon Sat
urday afternoou about 6 o'clock, in which
Jack Adams was seriously if uot fatally
wounded. The particulars were as foil ws:
Jack Adams was so unfortunate as to lose
bis house aud 4ts entire c intents a few
nights sines by fire. His fathe- kindly fur
nished him material to rebuild it. and it
was while engaged in this work, together
with his fattier aud Tom Vinson,
that the difficulty began. It seems
that Mr. Vinson, who is a brother
in-law of young Adams, bad a fuss with tbe
older Adams, in which his face wss slapped
by the oM gentleman. who, it is said, has
an aim ist ungovernable temper when thor
nug. lv aroused. After this occurred Viu
sou left ter home, bit before doing so
swore terrible vougeaDce upon his assailant.
N > attention was paid to the thr -at at the
time, and when the dav’s work was com
pleted father and sou sta-ted upon their re
turn home with no expectation whatever
of what was soon to occur. They had not
proceeded far bef re they were
met by Vinson, who had a sh t
gun in his hand which he levelled
upon tbe older Adams as sion as they
were near by, at the same time exclaiming:
"Now, you, I will get revenge.” The
son, realizing the inurnment peril of his
father, sprang from the wagon and seized
the would-be assassin’s gun and fired b >tb
barrels into the air. Vins n then pulled a
pistol from his hip pocket, a.d with an
oath, nime 1 it also at the old man, but the
son ag .in came to the rescue aud caught the
weapon iu his hand, but in the scufil > over
Its possession it was discharged, the bullet
entering his abdomen and making a very
dangerous wound."
At Gainesville Sunday morning then was
some disturbance in front of tbe Gaines
ville postoffioe about mail time. The facts
in the case are about as follows: Torn
Bearden, a well known drummer whose
fatally resides in Gainesville, thought that
P. P.'Jennings, proprietor of the Quattls
baura house, had been insulting to his wife,
and oowtided him, striking him at least
twelve times before a policeman was able
to separate them. The case has
bsen fully settled in an amicable
manner. Below are copies of the letters:
“Gainesville, Ga., Oct. 12.—T0 Mr. T. W.
Bearden, City: Sir—At tbe time of the

A special from St. Augustine to the
Times-Union says; "A nondescript of the
briny deep was found floating Sunday on
the San Seoastian by a boatman who sold
it to Mr. Ferrea The creature is small lu
size, not over three inches long, yet it
could supply the elephant with a trunk, the
leopard with spats, the zebra with siripes,
the octopus with suctions, the alligator with
arms, and the camel with color. The thing
has the shape, body, mouth and eyes of the
black bass,and In addition taali these doubt
less nsressarv appendages, the Hanks are
studded with what appears to be
i little brushes, like those on the spine of the
caterpillar. While provided with tins
enough to satisfy several kinds of reasonable

instead of cla -vs, an apparatus resembling a
woman’s fan, which it contracts and ex
pands at will. Each section of this fan is
tipped with naiie like those of the feathered

of enjoying an individuality unknown to

E - QUIMAU DOGS.
The Wonderiul amount of
Which is Done By T.iese Dogs.
K A. B. Sehanz in Fi ank lathe's Weekly.
Early in the morning of Jan. 23 of this
year I made my final preparations for the
departure of the expedition. My dogs, won
derfully shrewd specimens of their woll
iiko breed, had gotten into the habit of dis
tributing themselves over the Esquimau
huts of Kauulik v.ilage, where many of
them hat spent tboir early yout , and where
allot them managed to fled belter shelter
from wintry blasts than at my quarters.
For these brutes the Alaskan provides noth
ing to correspond to our dog huts or kennel*.
The Esquimau draught and >g, from his
birth, is a cren ure of the open air, and, in
fact, if he were treatei with more consider
ation and afforded a w arm ab ide he would
lose that ruggeJness which fits bin so well
tor his work. 3o he live* in a snow-drift,
in lieu of a mud hut, if possible, a id of au
ice hummock if not. He is fed once a day,
and ootains more food when he is idle tuati
when be works, for the old Latin prove: b
“l lenes venter non etudet libenltr" fits
this faithful animal. So wnen, m prepara
tion for a long trip, be loafs about at home
he receives double or even triple rations of
fish, and grows stout an i lazy.
When liis travels begin it takes some days
before his limbs will move with the tireless,
machine-like trot which a his cbaracte.-
istic. Each evening on the road he is thrown
half a salmon,dry as n chip, with what little
juice may be leftin it f .-oza ashard as a rock.
This he devours with astonish.ng rapidl y.
The one who gets through first usually
manages to steal or force from one of ms
Blower colleagues a crumb or two, and the
meal usually cuds in a.a intricate dog fight,
to which a fitting climax is put by a wrap
ping from the formidable lasu of the
driver’s black snake.
The half-suvage brutes, who iu spite of
their wild nature frequently showed a rough
affection for me, were uarnessed to live pairs
to the long tow line attached to the sied,
only the leader having the prerogative of
running alone at the head of the team. As
soon as the dogs feel the pressure of their
harness they at once beoome quiet, sensible
aud anxious for busineti.
I may correct right here a popular fallacy
regarding travel with dogs iu the north.
People at home have formed, from varioui
reading aud from impressions gained from
early school ga igraphies, the idea that n
northern traveler pack* himself into his
furs on the dog sled and is whisked speedily
over u glistening surface of ice by lus
dashing dors. Such is not the case. At
least not in Alaska. There are no wido
steppes in our Arctic territory, the roads as
a rule are hard ones for the dogs, it is only
rarely that a stretch of smooth clean ice is
encountered, and therefore it is considered
among the travelers of Alaska a point of
honor to refrain fr m riding on the sled un
less the path is exceptionally fine or tho
traveler is afll.cted by illness or overcome
with fatigue. Tha dog outfits are looked
upon as means for transporting provisions,
olotbiiig and camp equipage. Therefore
we walked, and to a person comparatively
unused to snow-shoes, like myself, the walk
ing was not easy.
A TRAVELING PLANT.
The Strange Sight Witnessed by a
Railrond Passenger.
Frcm St. Nicholas.
I was sittiug in a passenger car looking
out over a stretch of prairie aud iu the
great Arkansas valley. The day wvs windy;
indeed, a ship captain, who sat next to me,
said it was “half a gale,” though, judging
from the way the wind shrieked past ns, I
should not have thought of usiag a fraction
in describing it.
Suddenly a number of elegantly shaped,
slightly built auimals appeared iu the dis
tance, and dashed toward the moving train.
The wind, the antelopes—for such they
proved to be—and tbs train engaged in a
race, in which the antelopes for a short
time held their owo. But what most aston
ished me was that the antelopes were pur
sued by great gray balls, some of which
were from four to five feet in diameter.
Not one of our party could imagine what
these wore, never having heard of anything
of the kind. We watched the curious sig.it
until the locomotive and the wind left the
antelopes and the pursuing balls lar behind
us. To increase our interest, howe er,
many moro such balls could tic seen on the
windward side of the track, piled up against
the wire fences and in ravines and gulleys
alo ig our onward route.
I afterward learned that what our party
saw were known to the plainsmen as “turn-,
ble-weeds.” and to the botanists as the ey
clolema plal. phyllum. It belongs to a
genus of plants that grow into a thick,
globe-shaped mass of twigs and small
branches, attached to their roots each by a
small stem, which in the fall becomes dry
and brittle; and, as theautumn winds sweep
over the prairie, these stems break off, and
the tumble-weeds go bounding away, scat
tering their seeds as they go.
Antelopes aud jack-rabbits, grouse and
prairie dogs are put to flight, cattle are
stampeded aud the roadbeds are clogged by
tbese flying masses of brushwood.
