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. We offer at this season Turnip Seed! T. M. Allen. T. E.

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.

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. The tie..
