1 KIDNAPPERS!
The Work of Two Such Fiends
at Millwood.
. Two Little Boys Apprehended and
Carried Away—The Distress of
the Parents—The Result
of a Search.
J
Waycuoss, Ga. Aug. I.—[Special. ]
—Reports from Millwood show that
excitement is rife there over the kid
• napping of Charlie and Robert Fields,
sons of A. P. Fields, and age] twelve
• and ten years respectively.
About two miles from Millwood
lives Mrs. Fields’ brother, Mr.
Agnew, llardlv a day passes that
members of the families are not
intervisiting. Last Monday after
noon Charlie and Robert left Mill
wood to spend two days with the
family of their uncle.
Thursday morning they started
back to town. Yesterday at noon
when the little fellows did not return
r home, Mrs. Fields suggested to
[ ° .
her husband the idea, of going for
■ them. Acting on his wife’s sugges
. tion Mr. Fields drove out to his
brother-in-law’s house and inquired
for the boys. Mrs. Agnew informed
j him that they left for Millwood im
mediately after breakfast. To this
Mr. Fields laughingly replied:
“Ob you must not keep the boys
‘ all the time, we want them at home.”
Seeing that this last was said in
• 1 all earnestness, a strange suspicion
lof evil dawned upon Mis. Agnew. It
I was not long before Mr. Fiel.l%also
i was sorely perplexed as to the where
abouts of his little boys. It occurred, I
however, that they might have!
2 stopped to play with Mr. Johnson’s!
children on the outskirts of the i
town.
Hurriedly turning his horse, he
drove back at a rapid i*te and soon
. alighted at Mr. Johnson,s gate.
Here he was told that ll<> boys had
not been seen, and Lis mind became
• I filled with the most horrible suspi
l cions. He had one hope, however.
Thei’ might have ’ taken a round
abcut course and have arrived at
home bv t his time.
Without further delay be drove
( I back to his residence only to have
; his suspicions further aroused. lie
I! then proceeded to relate to Lis wife
the fa is in the case. Mrs- Fields
bic ime a'most distracted and her
busi and liiedinvain to pacify her
~ i by hopes that the boys would yet
’ i be found.
By this time several citizens, who
ha I heard f the mysterious disaii
s ■
pearame o' the brothers, had collec
ted nt Mr. Ti l ls’ residence, and of
be red to intitt. a search. Some
i one sugges'ed .at the crowd separ
a : ate into three .mops, one to take the
" I road 1< w nd Mr Agnew’s, while the
I other two were to take roads leading
d! in oth“r directions from the town.
. That was about 5 o’clock yesterday
afternoon. About half past 6 o'clock
and when about three miles beyond
Mr. Agnew's, the searching party on
that road was surprised to see a lit
£- tie boy running towards them. They
' made haste to meet him. When at
! a short distance apart Mr. Fields.
who wai in the party, cried out:
‘Oh, its Robert, my dear little ba
, 8 by boy!”
The meeting was most affectionate
and not a few eyes were suffused
with tears. Butjoy was destined t<
give wax- to sorrow. Little Robert’s
, s lace was [tale and borrow stricken
■s. and he had hardly embraced his
father before he cried out:
es “Papa they carried Charlie oft'!”
‘ “Who!” cried the distressed par
ent fiercely.
Then Robert told the stnry fron
beginning to end. He and Charlie
OS
were on their way home when thci
were met Ly two men in n| buggy
at The men asked them to ride will
at them a short piece up the road prom
ising to return in a few minutes
ill After going several miles they pu
tz Robert out of the buggy, telling bin
that they would bring Charlie back
before night. Charlie cried to g<
back tu mamma and papa but the
gave him some money and told bin
•’ i to keep quiet.
That’ was enough. Charlie ha
been kidnapped and everybody real
t ”' ized it But one thing could bi
done the pursuit must be kept up an
; t hat without delay. Last nigh
nb-iut II o'clock the searching pal
tiau ! i.i t*. 11 f*rti n I to tiilA'li 1111 tlnii
had seen nothing of Charlie or hie 1
kidnappers.
The last reports from Mill wood
lliis morning state that armed men
left the place at an early hour. Tel
egrams, too, have been sent to vari
cus places, and it is thought that
the knidnappers may yet be appro
hended.
THE HOTEL ST. SIMON’S.
Something About the Closing of the
Season Last Night.'
The Hotel St Simon’s closed for
the season last night.
Every boat to the island during
the day carried a delightful crowd
of visitors and ere ni”ht, sable
goddess, had cast her ominous man
tel over the lovely isle, the hotel and
the beach were literally thronged.
The program for the pyroteebnieal
display, which was arranged by Mr.
W". T. Glover, was executed success
fully and enjoyed by the sight seers.
To say that the season just ended
was a successful one is but feebly
expressing it, and that Manager
King feels flattered there is no doubt.
For the next few days, Manager
King and Clerk Simpson will remain
at the hotel, arranging for the re
moval of furniture to the Oglethorpe.
It is understood that this latter hos
telry will be opened early this fall,
there being a great demand lor it
even now.
The coming season at the Ogle
thorpe promises to be as successful
as has been that at the Hotel St.
Simon’s.

Railroad Commissioners Meet—Bit
ten By a Snake Witnesses
For Christ—lnvestigating
Electric Cars, Etc.
Atlanta, Ga., Aug. I.—[Special.]
—The exposition gates will be
thrown open to the public on Wed
nesday, the 15th of next October.
They will close and the show heat
sin cud on Saturday the sth of
November. This will give to the
exposition sixteen working days,
only eight days less than the tin e
occupied last year. So much for the
ti me.
The displays, even at this early
date, exceed those received last yeai
just before the exposition opened.
'I his seems to indicate that the show
will be much more interesting, and
that it will be conducted on a
grander scale goes without saying,
as the company has advertised it fai
and wide, and has even constructed
additional buildings on the grounds
to accommodate exhibits that will
be inspected |by probably twice as
many visitors as were here last year.
That brings up the subject that is
the most important in connection
with the coining exposition—how
shall the visitors be entertained':
I'hc exposition company litis dei idid
to see that every man, woman and
child is entertained. That tiiueh i
settled, to all who care to come ti
Atlanta during the sixteen days that
the exposition is op.-n may rest e.-i«\
on that score.

m a terrible nuisance . It runs directly
9t [>ast my house and my family are
forced to keep the windows closed
during the afternoon and night on
H ‘ account of the terrible stench aris
ls ing from the ditch. The ditch hard
’l* ly ever has any water in it, as only
ar spring tides ever come up into it
and decaying vegetable matter and
x - tilth give rise to the most noisome
*-’• smells. The board of health ought
to look into tile matter.
( d Mr. Leviaon says that complaints

long about the ditch and no doubt

DID SHE REPENT? '
A Baby Cast on the Charity
of the World
•' ■» “
! Left at an Old Negro Woman's House
on Cochran Avenue-The Moth
er Repentsand Returns fcr
Her Darling.
A pretty little baby girl, with a
’ face as fair as an angel, with eyes
as blue as the sky above, with hair
that fell in silken strands around her
■ graceful neck.
That's just what old aunt Eliza
Robinson saw last Wednesday morn
ing when she opened her front door.
Everybody knows aunt Eliza Rob-
• inson. She lives on South Cochran
avenue and bears a reputation for
1 honesty and integrity that is not
■ often surpassed by members of her
race.
i Last Wednesday morning when
'aunt Eliza opened her front door she
■ taw sitting on the step a large willow
basket. Anxious to know what this
receptacle contained, she drew aside
the covering, and what met her gaze
and entranced her being was the
lovely ba’>e already described.
The little one was asleep and as
it lay sleeping the sleep of innocence
it was as tenderly sweet as the poej's
brightest dream.
At least, that’s what aunt Eliza
( wanted to say us she lifted the lit
tle darling from its couch in the
willow basket and carried it in to
protect it from the euol air ot the .

This is the story. Now who can
oiler a clear solution?
s Did this mother, for some reason
1 i nly known to herself, decide to cast
,v her little girl on the cold charity of
>- the world? Did she afterwards
g brood over her rash act and weep
i) bitter tears of repentence? These
f are the question that suggest them
selves to the more thoughtful.
,1 “Fore God,” exclaimed old aunt
I- Eliza when she was questioned about
g the matter, “I do believe dat woman
>f wanted to get rid of her pretty little
d baby, but she didn’t have the heart
,o to leave it.”
It is a strange and sensational
r story to say the least of it. The
Post will keep its readers informed,
should any further developments
Q arise.

ce A young white man named Jack
tie Buckley was arrested yesterday after
V. noon by Constable Levisou, on a
