dauntiess hero, having expended al

thought it the better part OF va'ot

the enemy to the rear, and take rel

Had the dead spoken, Mrs. Jones
would have been scarcely less startled
than by this outbreak Of meek long

ger arose 50 near the sitting point

Jones' answer was snore.
That snore brought the good dame
souarely to the situation. Sitting up
in bed Selling her lord by the shoulder,
amidst shakes and punches, she cried.

Jones fairly snorted, and from the
depths Of his stomach there seemed to
come an echo to that last word-"Go!"
Mrs. Jones had paused for a reply,
for a few entreaties, for little tender
expostulation; but verify this was a
uuencher. 1t came on the red heat

such a gush Of nasal harmony that

r1RR1Aer. JEALoUsIEs AND JARS.

In the ysar 1910, there resided in
the upper part Of Georgia a' well-to /,
do widow, rejoicing il the the name q
Smith, and occupying the honorable ?
position of maternity to q band Of
bouncing boys. rE1
In the same county flourished q Mr.
Jones, widower, and by lineal right
PROPRIETOR Of quite number OF SUD-
Joneses.
In the course Of human events,
what could be more natural than that
the notable house Of Jones should de-
sire a union with the world-renowned
Smith? A proposition to that effect
being kindly received, in process OF
time the bond was ratified, and Mrs.
Smith becoming partner Of the firm,
marched her infantile investments
along, and in position Of joint stock
holder, settled down in dignitied COM
placency.
Peace and plenty reigned in this
new arrangement, but alas! what
company is unassailable by the sharp
tongue of rumor? To this one there
came a report that struck its securl-
ties to the heart, and happiness and
love, tottered to their foundations,
while distrust and jealousy sank Its
stock below par.
1t happened one day that female
gossipper impaired to the remade
bride a hint that Mr.. Jones was In
volved in a discreditable liason, which
had created quite a scandal among
that high-minded people. This piece
of news chimmed in so well with
Mrs. Jones' preeonceived notions OF
the virtue of man, that she swallowed
it with avidity, and began to lay up
wrath against the hour when the I'M
suspecting intriguante should come
home. Dark frowns and unsupported
retorts greeted the recently installed
benedict, and when he tenderly in
quired the reason of this change, mat
tiers eliminated by making him the
recipient of such storm of indigna-
ton, that the poor bewildered man
stood thoroughly cowed before his
newly added half. When he did
gather the meaning Of the outburst, it
by no means helped his cause to
promptly deny the charge.
There is no use to tell a falsehood
about it,, said the discerning lady,
with the air of one who can see clear
ly through milestone; There is no
use to deny know, feel it is true!"
Condemning the cu1prit upon such
iyauiNe evidence, she vanquished ev-
cry defence by positive shake Of the
head, and stamp Of the foot, reitera-
ting: "No, no; it IS so, l feel that it
is SO. You CANNOT DECEIVE Me-"
"But my dear -" interposed the
hurband.
"Darew screamed Mrs. Jones, "do
you dare to dear me?"
"No, my love, / only meant to
soothe YOU"
"Soothe me! soothe mel" derisively
*'Vile villain, it's many day before l
am soothed. l am insulted. l am
dishonored. l am disgraced! Go!
never speak to me again. Go to your
viletassociate, and unlawful offspring,
and leave me to my poor disgraccd
little children. Oh! that l should
have lived to see this day! that
should have renowned the name and
memory of my angel Smith, for such
a brute as this" And the irate dame,
bursting into tears, sank into her
rocking chair, buried her face in her
handkerchief, and swayed to and fro,
sobbing out her burning grief:
In vain poor Jones strnye to clear

Now while her husband slowly and
resolutely trotted out of sight, MIS- >.
Jones courage began to decline. DIDN'T
she know that she couldn't kill the
child, and Jones knew it too; ana ye'
he could bring it to the house! Inns
thought made her one minute furious
the next despairing. Alas! she sa"
too late that she had driven her nus
band to the wall, and she must now
take the consequences. No work was
done that morning, she neither washed
the dishes. nor swept the floor; her
anxiety was too great; she walked the
passage like one demented. Jones
would bring that child home to affront
her eyes, to disgrace her house, she
knew it, she felt, and what should
she do? She wrung her hands and
wept, and repented, yes repented that
she had scolded and prosecuted him
so: but of what avail was repentance
now, he was on his way to get the
child. and she had driven him to Il. Her
agony settled to the calm of despair.

1t was dreadful, II was q condition OF
things he had not looked for: and a
troubled, lost expression stole over his
face as Mrs. Jones reiterated for the
third time slowly, decidedly, and por.
tentously:
Don't you bring that child into this

"Well, what shall do?' he burst
forthvehcmcntly. Poor little wretch
it had better die! Yes, let it die.

He was perfectly desperate, and
seized it by the clothes as if he was
going ta-dash its brains out.

He paused a minute. "Will Won

"No."

Central COMMITTEES Property Hold
>sAe..Sal,u.A .a

The Central Executive Committee of the
Property Holders Union met last night in
Hawkins's Club-Room.
Several committees reported and the re-
ports were received.
At the suggestion of the President the
present Secretary, who also fills the Office Of
Treasurer, was relieved of his duties as the
former, his duties as the latter being onerous,
and on motion Mr.. F. A. Southmayd was
elected Secretary.
The Executive Committee was authorized
to prepare an address to introduce the Consti-
tuition of the Union, and to decide on the
number of copies necessary to be printed for
distribution throughout the State.
A series of resolutions adopted by the
Third Ward Union, asking the Central Com
mittee to say how seven hundred and fifty
thousand people were going to pay sixty mil
lion dollars, called forth some debate, during
which Mr.. Timony, of the First Ward, an
nounced that he was very brave man, that
he wasn't afraid of anything, and he did not
core q continental what any body said
about him, and he mentioned particularly
that the press could not brighten him. He
was generally regarded as q very ''bg ipjup. "
The remarks OF Mr.. Timony so overcame
the Council that further consideration OF the
resolutions, and further consideration of
everyt thing else Was postponed anu the meet
ing adjourned.

A PATROLMAN ASSAULTS A
GIRL.
Two Young Men Grossly Insult
Her.
A Brutal Outrage.

The following cowardly affair transpired on
Monday night, and nothing more brutal has
been chronicled here for many day.
1t appears girl named Theresa Hall re-
sides on Thalia street. with her mother, who
takes in washing. She has been in the habit
of carrying home the washed clothes, Of
evenings, and, according to her custom,
started out with her basket, accompanied by
An old negro woman.
After arriving at her destination, and when
about to enter the house, she was rudely &C
torily ordered her home, or he would then
and there arrest her. She hurried into the
house, left the clothes, and was about starting
for home, when the officer caught hold Of her,
displaying his pistol, and informed her that
she was his prisoner.
Alarmed and terrorized, the poor girl could
only protest that she had done nothing. The
officer then took her towards the station, but
in short time was met by two young men,
named Frank Sisson and James Gleason.
Fordyce accosted them and told the girl to
20 to the station with them. She tremblingly
moved off with them in the direction Of the
calaboose, but had not gone far when the
young men commenced insulting her and
making improper proposals After some
time had passed and firing of longer delay
they violently assaulted her, but her resist
ance prevented the accomplishment of their
purpose. Disguised at their failure they re-
taioed the girl in custody until halfpast
o'clock that night when Corporal Hearsey
met the party.
Hearing the girls complaint he took the
two in custody, but Sisson, while on the way
to the lookup, suddenly jerked away and
escaped, notwithstanding the Corporal fired
four shots at him.
Gleason was locked up and yesterday morn
ing the case came up before Magistrate Evans,
who promptly sent him before the First Dis
trict Court under $1,000 bonds. Fordyce, the
officer, has been suspended, and it is proba-
BILE ere this has been arrested as accessory.
One Of the painful incidents connected with
the trial yesterday was the fainting of the
girls mother when she heard how cruelty
these two men had treated her daughter
The case is one requiring full and complete
inquiry, and the guilty parties should be
made to suffer.
