On Thursday morning last. Wal.
lace Washington, negro boy OF
fifteen years. who is over grown and
looks older, was arrested by Bob
Tyler, coiored policeman, and
brought before Mayor Powell. Mr.
Kennedy, a respectable citizen of
south west Canton, made affidavit
that Washington had made an at
tempt to commit a namelcs outrage
on tte person of his daughter,
bridget Kennedy, a young girl of
about fourteen years. Mr.. Gray
Thigpen aud Bob Tyler both testi-
fed that Washington had confessed
to them. without reluctance, that
he had seen Miss Kennedy some
distance from home, had overtaken
her and succeeded in throwing her
to the earth, when his fiendish pur
pose was frustrated by the approa..h
of two men who we're attracted by
the girls cries for help.
Before the Mayor, Washington
maintained logged silence when
asked if he were guilty or not. He
was sent to Jail to await the action
Of the next Grand Jury.
Before the examination, Washing
ton was interviewed by this repor.
ter, and he seemed not alarmed, nor
sensible of the enormity of his
crime, but rather to regard the mat
ter as good joke. This demeanor
led to the general impression that
the boy is almost fool.
Wallace Washington may be
thankful that the matter was kept
as quiet as it was, and so few of our
citizens were present at his exam
ination, else he might never have
known the pleasure of sleeping be
hind the iron bars that now shield
him from the vengeance of an out.

THE MODEL MAN.

There lives a model man of yore,
Who always did exactly right;
He never drank, nor smoked, nor swose,
And never staid out late at night
He made no bets; he played no game;
To him all women were the same;
He never knew what horses ran
In truth, he was model man!
Now, with this model man of yore
The wicked world did not agree;
His neighbors voted him bore,
His friends a man of mystery.
He found himself accused of crimes
Not to be mentioned in these rhymes,
Until blind justice laid her ban
And rope upon this model man.
So, in this model man of yore,
A moral and warning see;
A littleless-not something more
Than angels must We mortals be.
Live while you live! Smoke good cigars!
Drink dry champagne! Twang gay guitars!
And be as virtuous as yon can
But do not be a model man.
