about two miles from town a fiat car,
loaded with pine wood, was discovered to
be in blaze, the wood having caught
from spark from the engine, and when
discov- red had gained such Roadway that
the crew of the train could do nothing
with it. The fiat was uncOupled from the
train, and the engine brought 1t at full
speed to the water tank, where the flames
were quickly subdued. About one-hali
the wood was burned, but the fiat escaped
without damage. The rushing fire is
said to have been beautiful sight.

A FLORIDA PoOAaoNTAs.

A Story Found in the Old Records.
Duncan McKrimmon was citizen of
Milledgeville, and was a soldier in the
United States service during the Seminole
war in Florida. On one occasion he went
fishing and lost his way, and was cap
tufed by party OF hostile Indians,
headed by the celebrated prophet,
Francls. The Indians prepared TO burn
AcKrimmOn. They tied him TO stake,
and then began to dance around him.
Milly Francis, the youngest daughter
of the prophet, who was about 10 years OF
age, was sad and silent She plted the
poor prisoner. When the fatal t0mahaWk
was raised to strike the fatal blow she
placed herself between it and the prfs-
ober, and fesolutely babe the Indian that
If he thirsted for blood to shed hers, being
determined, she said, not to survive the
prisoner. A mOmentary pause was pro-
dueed oby this unloOked-for occurrences,
and she took advantage of the fcircum-
stance to inplore the pity of her ferOcious
father. who finally yielded TO her wishes.
McKrimHon few days afterwards was
sold TO the Spaniards at Sc. Marks for ~
gallons Ofrumltlq. 4 VI 1adW
AS long as McKrimmon was a prisone-,
Mily showed him acts Of Kindness. The
fortunes Of war finally placed her In the
power of the white people. She arrived at
fort Gsdsden with a number Of others in
a starving condition. She was kindly
treated. McKrimmOn heard of her as a
prisoner, and leftMilledgeville TO seek her
for the purpose OF making her his wife.
He failed to reach his destination.

Notice Of the preparation Of a serious

lectures in Atlanta, said to him that be

20 see. That his father was dangerously

Robertson, hOrrOr-stricken at the terrible
announcement, boarded the first train for
Madison, hired team 70 90 10 his fathers
house, and was surprised to see him not

the perpetrator should be severely dealt

DIDN'T Like the Coffin.

FROM tho Macon (tTd) IeJs0rdDh.
Rev. 2. II. Crumpler, pastor of the East
Macon Methodist church, has been in the
habit of aiding the poor of his church
whenever death has visited their families.
His kindness has always been appre-
ciated until recently, when a case oc-
Cured which seemed to indicate an
absence Of appreciation.
John Butler had two deaths In his
family. He was unable to pay for cOfins,
and MIR. Crumpler secured them for him
from the county. He not only did this,
but he took the plain pine boxes to Mr.. j..
j. Clay, the undertaken, and had them
properly trimmed at his own expense.
MIR. Clay made the charge light, knowing
that Mr.. Crumpler was paying for the
work without aid from anybody else.
On Sunday Butler himself died. When
Mr.. Crumpler heard of his death he went
10 the Secretary of the Board of County
Commissioners, obtained an order tor a
coffin, and took the latter to Mr.. Clay's
establishment to be trimmed He paid
for the trimmings, and then hired hack
and sent the coffin into East Macon to
Buffers late residence. He then went
home.
Soon after the hackman, whom Mr..
Crumpler had hired, drove UP to the lat
Ier's residence with the coffin, and car
ried it to the steps and put it down.
Mr.. Crumpler asked the hackman what
he meant. The latter replied that when
he reached Buffers late residence Mrs.
Butler said that she did not like the coffin
and would not have il, and that he might
take 1t to Mr.. Crumpler, who might use
it himself.
Mr.. Crumpler said that he thanked the
Lord he did not need the coffin, and di-
rected the hackman to take 1t back to MIR.
Clay.
Yesterday the coffin still remained at
Mr.. Clay's establishment.
Buffers remains were inferred on Mon
day, and it is presumed that Mrs. Butler
secured another coffin.

ABie "WeII, in Arizona.

In some sections of the northern por-
ton of Arizona the question of water
supply, even for domestic purposes, is
very serious one. This is particular
" the case at Ash Fork, a station on
the Atlantic & Pacific Railroad. A
series of very lovely and fertile valleys
surround the place, and plenty of grass
grows for the support of large herds of
cattle, but no water can be had except
from an occasional "tank' during the
winter season. At Ash Fork the rail.
road company attempted to sink an ar
tesian well, but after reaching a depth
of 900 feet the drill became fastened
and could not be removed. Many fu-
tile attempts were made to extract it,
but at last it was Abandoned in despair.
All water now used at that station and
by the residents of the town is brought
by rail from Pach Springs, sixty-ffve
miles TO the westward, and is sold st
so cents per barrel.
A short time ago a prospector, slim
ulated by the inquiry for water, report
ed that he had discovered huge well,
about eight miles from Ash Fork, sunk
in level plain. Parties at once re-
paired thither with ropes and other
paraphernalia to explore the wondrous
discovery. They found the locality,
but to this day they do not know the
exact nature Of the curious cavern that
met their gaze. 1t is located on level
plain and cannot be seen until it is ap-
preached very near. There is no evil
dence OF earth or rock having been re-
moved from the pit. which was found
to be $50 feet in diameter and $50 feet
deep, with perpendicular walls No
one IN the party was brave enough to
descend and explore the well" when
the rope had been lowered, and the ex-
plorers returned to Ash Fork scarcely
wiser than they were before their trip.
1t Is certainly great curiosity, and
there possibly exists supply of water
somewhere in its depths or in the nu-
merous caYerns or tunnels that appar-
emily emerge into the dark earth below
from this curious threshold of sunlight.
