She volunteered tho information to US in a

A Danonted Mother.

A rumor gsined broad currency on the
streets yesterday afternoon that crazy wo-
man, the wife of man by the name of
Mcdonald, an employee Of the Todd Touring
mills, had endoayored to drown her little
sirl.child, aged four years, in the Trinity.
Upon inquiry into the facts Of the case our
reporter was put into possession Of the in
formation that tie unfortunate woman was
occupying quarters with Mrs. King, very
worthy lady and friend, residing on lower
Lamar erect, Just south Of Wood, and that
sho has net been in possession OF her reason
ing faculties for about six weeks. Mrs. King
states that while she has exhibited an alb
sence Of all praoticsl thought she has nevor,
until Yesterday sfteraoon, evidSnoed semons-
tration of violeut action towSrd anyone.
She has shown the warmest fcndneM
and admiration for her husband and child,
through motherly love, However, furnishing
the latter quito severely by keeping her con-
tinually by her side. About 3 o'clock sha
became more excited than usual, seized her
child and started of in the direction of the
river, expressing determination TO crcss IL
Fearing that some injury would result to the
little one Mrs. King followed her and sue
ceeded in overtskipE the couple near the
corner Of Wood and Market streets. She
seized the reother, and through the assist
ance OF gentleman passing succeeded in
forcing her to return home. She WAS in a
most violent humor and refused to be COM
iorted in any manner. Information was dis
patched to the county authorities ana she
WAS conveyed TO tho county jail and there
confined in ono of the rooms Of
the yard, where wo paid her q visit. We found
her re.tlessly pacing up and down the room,
as if in deep meditation. Our inquiries to
her met with a sullon indifferenoe-in fact,
she seemed totally unewaro Of our presooce.
Her husband had just preceded VI and we
are Informed that sne was quite anxious to
leave tho Jail with him.
The report has gsined currency that the
fondness Of her husband for frail resident Of

At last a lamp chimney is made which
does not break from draft, dampne,s, cold
sir or heat, Whist blessing Every one of
our readers has no doubt often lost her or his

lamp was most needed, the last chimney in
the house would break, We therefore advise
everyone to 20 to D. Goslin and buy the
Dragon brand chimney, ask your grocer for
them as all retail dealers can DO supplied at

tempt to compete with our man County
in his hree-story system, but I will
state few facts and let them speak for

Mr.. County, we do not doubt but what
you haye brains enough. So have the
lower animals to which you have un-
justly compared the farmers in former
numbers Of the ADVANCE. You seem
to think We did great wrong two years
ago. Isuppose you mean when We raised
your political scalp and bid you earn
your living. You call that a wrong.
We have another name for it, for if you
and few more of your ring compan-
ions were kicked into nothingness, 1.-THE
position you are most capable of tilling)
it would still right another wrong that
would benefit tile laboring class of this
county. Now, County, the time is
coming when you and the few of your
friends who are still in office will have
to seek employment elsewhere than
stealing from this county, and your
successors in office will be honest men
instead of rascals. They will be men
who will work for the interests of the
people, a portion of the time at least.
Your assumption of lordship over the
