You have lieaid a srreat deal about the advance on Carpets in

lessen the burdens it imposes, and 1 am determined to sell you
Carpets AS IOW AS YOU EVElt BOUGHT THEM, REGARD
LESS OF THE TARIFF.
To enable mo to do this 1 sell for CASH, and at MUCH

among thieves seems stealing
HORSES AND BUGGIES.
Tlie Thief Who Took Mr. I>. W. Bagley'.
Horse and Mr AtUrey's llu^Ry Monday
N'lulit Probably Held I’p with the Stolen
Property at Knoxville.
One hundred years ago horse stealing
might have been a lucrative branch of
the burglar’s profession, as at that time
the captured property afforded about the
swiftest means of locomotion or commu
nication, and with a fe\v hours start giv
en to the thief there was every chance of
escape, but in this day of railroad trains,
telegraph wires and vigilant police ser
vice, he is no better than a fool who goes
into his neighbor’s stable and steals
therefrom a horse with the expectation
of continuing in possession of his booty
A horse is something a little difficult to
conceal, and within twelve hours after
the theft telegrams have been Hashed
over the wires in every direction within
a radius of 100 miles from his starting
point, and almost every officer of the law
within that area is furnished with an
accurate description of the animal’s ap
pearance, and in nine cases in ten the
thief will find himself under arrest with
in forty-eight hours.
Chief of Police Lingo yesterday morn
ing received a telegram from the Sheriff
of Crawford county in Knoxville, Ga.,
informing him »»f the detentien of a
gro at that place with a horse and buggy
stolen from Americus.
Thiri is doubtless Mr. Bagley’s horse
and Mr. Autrey’s buggy. Chief Lingo
telegraphed for a description of the re
captured property, and if the answer
proves, as it doubtless will, that the right
party has been caught, an officer will
immediately be sent to bring the prison
er back to Americus.
This class of theft seems to he becon
itig popular, as also on Monday night in
Albany the same trick was played, even
the vehicle and horse belonging to dif
ferent parties, with the difference that
the Albany thief has already been
caught and lodged in jail.
THE SLEKl'ING CHILI).
Efforts to Awaken Mr. Geo. W. Poole's
Sleeping Daughter Still Futile,
At a late hour yesterday evening the
condition of Mr. Geo. W. Poole’s little
girl, who lias slumbered steadily for a
week, remained unchanged.
The diagnosis of the attending physi
cians was to the effect that during a fit
of coughing the patient ruptured a
blood vessel, bringing about paralysis of
most of the active nerves. There seems
to bo no trouble in administering nour
ishment, though its reception is purely
mechanical and apparently involuntary
upon the part of the child.
The sloep in which she is wrapped
seems to be a healthy one, and to any
one seeing her for the first time she sim
ply presents the appearance of a slum
bering child.
The attendant practicioners say that
the duration of the attack cannot be
foretold, it may break at any time and
may continue indefinitely.

Tin* IndiaiiM Going to Datvnon.
The Kickapoo Indian show leaves to
day for Dawson after several weeks of
profitable business in Americus.
Tho entertainments given by tho troupe
are clean and pleasing, possessing excel
lence and variety seldom displayed by a
free exhibition. While in Americus
their afternoon and night performances
were visited by our best people, includ
ing many ladies, and throughout the en
tire time there was nothing objectiona
ble and much to enjoy. The papoose,
or Indian baby was greatly admired and
petted by the girls and truly it is a cute
little one.
The management of the company is
composed of gentlemeu who have be
come very popular even during their
short stay here, and doubtless their so
journ in Dawson will be equally success
ful with that in Americus.

A Sow Trie, to Eat a Baby.
Celle Nelson, a negro woman on the
Vason place, went out to the cowpen to
milk and carried her baby. She left the
baby on the ground just outside the pen.
Inside the pen were some bogs, and it is
supposed that theso attracted the atten
tion of the baby and it thrust one of its
hands through the fence at them. Any
how, while, the mother was engaged with
her milking she heard her child scream.
An old sow had caught the baby’s hand
and was proceeding to devour it in regn-
lar hog fashion. Tho mother rescued
the child quicklyjas possible, hut not un
til its hand and arm had been badly
crushed in tiie jaws of the ravenous
swine. Dr. W. W. Bacon is attending
the child, and thinks he will save the
injured limb.—Albany Herald.
