Trailed by BlOOdhOunds.

The keen scent of bloodhounds rs

mile up the river, says a Columbus.

yesterday. A few moments later several
horsemen following gave evidence of
fatigue from long chase. Suddenly
the hounds came to stand, and col.

Burkett pushed the muzzle of a Brit

Alexander Goodwin went to the house
OF his brother, Stephen Goodwin. who
was bachelor and wealthy stock

THE BANKRUPTCY HARVEST.
Reports Which Show That II Has Been
Nearly Gathered.

The Railway Age saws: "The record Of rail-
way foreclosure sales in the United States dur
ing 1884 shows that the harvest Of bankruptcy
sown during the disastrous times commencing
ten years ago has now been nearly gathered.
The number of roads sold thus in 1894, as well
as their mileage and the amount OF capital
represented, were all much less than any pre-
vious year since 1876 Such sales last year
were nearly all of little Importance, there
being only one of the roads involved having q
mileage of seventy one miles. The total num-
Der of railroads sold under foreclosure in
1884 was eighteen, of which the total stock
and debt amounted to SO, 504 900, not includ-
ing accrued interest or floating indebted
ness The average yearly mileage subject to
foreclosure sales from 1876 to 1884 inclusive
was 2, $685. and the corresponding yearly aver
age OF total stock and debt was SIG, 620 667.
The encouragement, however, derived from the
decrease in foreclosures is offset by the past
years record of receiverships. The latter
gives evidence that the seed has been sown for
a new, luxurious crop, which will ere long be-
gin to be harvested in the form of foreclosure
sales. During the past twelve months THU ty-
niles, with bonded debt of S407 200, 900, not |
including other debts and past due interest |
md an apparent capital stock investment of |
)ver S307 coz, 600, have failed and have been
AIKEN possession of by the courts for the ben
fit of creditors. These figures represent
early 8 per cent of the entire present railway
Mileage of the United States, nearly ~ per
ent of the total bonded debt and nearly per
ent of the whole capital stock.

Sharon Again in Trouble.

The Masonic cemetery association, of San
Francisco, has brought suit in the superior
court against ex-senator Sharon and others
for Decorating a grave during the Sharon
divorce trial. Witnesses testified that Miss
Hill, plaintiff in the case, placed some Of
Sbaron's undergarments in a newly made
grave for the purpose of acting as love charm
on the millionaire ex-senator. Health Officer
Meat, at the instigation of Sharon's counsel,
had the grave opened to see if such articles
were deposited. The claim is now made that
the grave was desecrated, and that S., 600 dam
ages are asked. The suit is chiefly to test the
authority of the health officer in such matters.

JANUARY Farm Work.

All farmers should keep record of
their work and ''take an account of
stock" at least once year. The first,
of January is an appropriate time to-
''open new books" to be followed by
a daily or weekly record of important
transactions. See that the farm build
ings are well insured in reliable COM
pany at fair rates. Many fires result
from carelessness with ashes. Build a
brick or stone receptacle at a safe dis
lance from all buildings and keep the
ashes in it. They are well worth care

WOman's Cardinal Virtues.

1t is at home that woman blooms oNt
IN all her sweet perfection. At homo
means more than being in her own
house and by her own tireside; it means
her natural, unaffected, and unartificial
state. The ideal woman is the woman
whom the artist selects to immortalize
on his canvas, He wants no parasol,
no fan, no Worth dress, no elaborate
hat with plumes and birds and metaS
ornaments, no diamonds, no rouge, no
gaslight, no sound of organ, or flute or
clarionet; no, not these, but a face
with tint of rose, eyes that speak,
hair that falls in tresses unrestrained.
and some simple, trihing costume that
but serves to bring out the beauties of
the form it covers. These are the
women who live through all time, who
preserved by all men, who are fall
len in love with, and who are most at
tractive. How tired the eyes grows of
dazzling colors, of fashion and formal
ity, of all the vain pageants of outward
society, and how the heart yearns for,
simplicity, gentleness, and purity! I'd
these cardinal virtues we are ALWAYS
returning, and it is when woman best
illustrates them that she rises to her
highest perfection. II is not alone her
face that attracts, but it is what she
says and does in her ungarded mo-
ments. The most attractive women inn
the world are those who are attractive
in the quietude and privacy of Their
own homes.-NeU York World.

TennysOn and Victoria.

Speaking of Tennyson's hospitality,
the following anecdote is related: Her
Majesty, the Queen, announced it to be
her good pleasure to honor her poet
laureate with a visit. Unfortunately,
she did not say precisely what day she
would arrive. In duty bound, the
whole family was put into its best "bib
and tucker" The children agonized in
their best rig, and were vigorously
Apent" indoors. Mrs. Tennyson wins
bedeoked with her state raiment, and
the great author himself was gotten up
to perfection, and in tho latest inven-
ton of his tailor. -Four or five days
went by in the same atmosphere Of ex-
pectation and grandeur, but no royal
guests came driving up. At last it be-
came UNDESIRABLE. Ordinary manners
were proclaimed; everybody sighed
with relief and flung aside too violent
etiquette with too belaced aud berib-
boned attire. The children resumed their
intimacies with mud-pies and rocking
hornes. Mrs. Tennyson began to enjoy
novel and q wrapper, and, casting
aside romance, Mr.. Tennyson took up
. hoe and began wedding his garden,
and, with glowing cheeks and animated
eyes, tried ito maze two blades of grass
grow where before there was only one."
OF course, when everything was jogging
along in this cozy and homeIike way,
the Queen and her escort arrived. At
first there was a general futter of fright
and excitement. Everybody was en-
barrassed and i'll at ease. But the grand
old fellow, coming up to the house with
soiled hands and sweatdrops on his
lofty brow, made it all right in few
words. my sovereign. we expected ..
you for several days, and were prepared
to receive you as should become those
who are honored by their Queen; but
Today we did not know OF your inten-
ton, and are therefore only so far pre-
pared as loyalty and love can make u.s."
1t is needless to say that the visit was
Tery friendly and pleasant affair, and,
70 doubt not, far better enjoyed by SO |
ensible woman as Queen Victoria
han it would have been had it been at
ended with courtly formality and state.

General Grant, in his paper OH
"Shiloh," written for the February
Century, scouts the idea that his arm '
was in defenseless condition at tho
close of the first day of the battle. He
says that before any of Buell's troops
had taken position, he had given orders
to his division commanders to attack al
daybreak on the second day. Of the
close OF the first day he says: General
Lew Wallace arrived after firing had
ceased, and was placed on the right.
Thus night came, Wallace came, and
the advance of Nelson's division came.

most anxious buyers now, and the demand

slipped, he fell off the roof into the
street below. Just then market gard
ener's cart happened to pass by the
house, laden with baskets full of egps
and osier-cages containing live poultry,
and the man, falling into the midst Of
this load, crushed two cages, killed
about dozen fowls, and finally was in

was safe and sound.

Intense excitement followed the dis
covery. A local reward of $500 was at
once offered. kilograms were sent 70
the governor urging that the state also
offer a reward. A vigorous pursuit
was at once determined upon. There
was but one clew, and that was to fol-
low the buggy-wheel tracks. which
led out along the banks of the Flint
river southwark. DR.. Faircloth, who
had been out professionally during the
night, declared that he had met a
buggy, and that its occupants werS
Moses Keaton, wife and child. The
pursuing party pushed the chase
through swamp and mOrass, some
times having sight of the track, again
losing it, and thus giving the criminal
the advantage of time.
Upon reaching Decatur county,
Sheriff Burkett joined in the pursuit,
and it was decided to bring in the aid
of dogs to better keep the scent. On
the Georgia line and through Florid'
to Jackson county the party pusbed
Here, in region of swamp landsT
traces seemed lost, and two days w
spent in an endeavor to regain
Hope was abandoned. At last another
trail was struck due north. 1t was
not long until it was discovered that it
lay not more than half mile parallel
with the downward trip, back through
to Georgia, and within one hundred
yards of the house where the tragedy
had been committed, and still north of
this until a farm house was reached,
where it was discovered that the fuSi-
Il r,1I h. Il h,,.r \
were pursuing their flight on foot.
This trail was followed until the scene
just outside of this city brought the
officers into possession of their prey.
On the return trip to Mitchell county
with the prisoners, Keaton fully con-
fessed the crime. He implicated sew
eral others, and says that robbery was
the cause, as Goodwin always kept
large sums of money on his person,
He used an ak and q razor in the hon
rible deed. A noise outside gave the
nurderers the idea that they would be
caught, when Keaton sought safety in
light, and hence did not secure one
cent of the booty, only the gun for
protection and the conveyance for
light. Taking his wife with him he
proceeded through to Florida, and
loping the better to avoid detection,
|ecided to return north and reach
orth Alabama, when he would be Sc
ure. The chase was over four hun
red miles in a straight line, and mIatA
e nearer one thousand when the yari-
tions are taken into account. 1t is
oubtful if he will be allowed to reach
trial, so outraged are the people at
is crime.
