\ WASHER CRUSHED.
Thrice Refused in Two Days-Arrested
for His Pains.

ATLANTA, GA, April l9.-Atlanta has
developed matrimonial crank named
William Fleming Yesterday morning
he was given a trial in the Police Court.
Fleming is handsome, dashing man of
twenty-elght years, about five feet five
inches, and weighs about l40 pounds.
His square shoulders, blue eyes, dropping
mustache and fair complexion combine to
make him succ eSsful masher. One
week ago. Fleming, whose home is in
Wilmington, Del, went to boarding
house on Forsythe street. After making
terms with the proprietress Fleming
asked how many daughters she
had The lady seemed little astoniShed
at the question, but replied that she was
the mother of two daughters. Fleming
then added to the lady's establishment by
asking for description Of the ladies.
After supper Fleming sought the parlor.
There he met the young ladies, to whom
he was introduced. Fleming proved an
agreeable companion, and after conyers-
ing with the younger Of the two he sud
denly remarked: "Well, you suit me eX-
actly. like YOU, and think you will do"
"Why, what do you mean" indignant
ly asked the lady.
81 mean | want to marry you. Won't
you be my wife; You suit me exactly"
"No, WON'T said the young lady an
grly, as she hurridly left the room.
As soon as the young lady left the room
he turned his attention to her sister. The
conversation had not progressed far
when he made second proposal of mar
riage This was treated like the first.
Next morning, while standing on the
front porch a yeung lady passed by.
Fleming asked some one her name, and
when he secured it he followed her, and,
after introducing himself, asked permits
sion to visit her The young lady re
ferred Fleming to her mother. Nothing
daunted he sought the lady's mother, and
asked permission to visit her daughter
His good address secured his petition,
and that night Fleming called upon
the mother and daughter. Before
ten O'Clock he begged the lady to marry
him. His Courtship was after the style
OF his first night on Forsyth street. The
lady declined the offer, but Fleming was
persistent and continued to beg until the
clock struck one, when in order to get rid
of him she agreed to marry him. The
promise satisfied Fleming and he left.
Early the next morning the matter was
| brought to the attention of the Police De-
| partment The three young ladies APP
! peared as witnesses. Fleming was warned
by the Recorder that in future he must
cnlyp pour his tales of love into willing
ears.

A REIGN OF TERROR,
That Which Drove Two Children to
Suicide to Escape Maternal Wrath.

Suicide to Escape Maternal Wrath.
CHICAGO, ILL.,, April l9.-There is sor-
row in the Lindbach family. They reside
1t the corner of Twelfth street and
Ashland avenue, over a drug store kept
by Coll & Heakel. There are two boys
named Julius, aged ten years, and Curtis,
aged twelve years, and both attend IA re-
ligious brotherhood school on Twelfth
street. They were reprimanded very
sharply last Friday, and their tutor
threatened 20 send word about the
trouble TO their mother. This
preyed upon their minds, and they have
been remaining away from school lately,
Wednesday morning some playlnates told
the little fellows that they would tell
their mother how the boys were playing
"hookey." This alarmed them, as they
declared that their mother would severe
~ whip them. That afternoon, while the
parents were absent from home, they
went to the bureau and stole some money,
with which they purchased twenty cents
them by druggist at the cor
ner Of LOOMS and Twelfth streets,
They carefully dressed them
selves at home and, bidding the old
family dog good-by, and closing all the
doors to the vacated house, swallowed
the poison. The eldest was obliged TO
take q music lesson at certain hour
and never thinking of disobeying he
started with the worn little violin on
the cars for his teacher, but was taken
Ill aboard the car and became so yio-
Iently sSk that the car was stopped and
he was conveyed to a drugstore, where
physician soon surmised that he had
taken poison. He was induced to tell
all about it, and by the aid of prompt
measures his life was saved. Word
was sent home, and physicians called
for the brother, and the lives OF both
were saved.
