A MISSING YOUNG LADY.
She Visits Macon with Strange Lady
and Disappears.
From the Macon (Ga.l Telegraph.


From the Macon (Ga.l Telegraph.
The Brunswick Morning Ne,Os says that
Miss Lizzie Myers, a well-thought-of and
progressing young lady of Albany, Ga,
left home on June 26 to visit relatives in
Sparta. She suddenly disappeared and has
not been heard from since. The story Of
her disappearance is that Oh her way to
Sparta she met on the train a woman who
gave her name as Mrs. Malcomb. She rep
resented to Miss Myers that she was going
to town near Chattanooga, Tenn, to open
millinery store, and persuaded the young
lady TO consent to go with her.
Miss Myers, after her visit to Sparta, met
Mrs Malcomb, and together they went to
Macon, where Miss Myers visited friend
at Mount DeSales academy.
From Macon the pair went to Chatta-
nooga, where they put up at leading
able to trace the missing girl except her
uncle.
Now the fishy part of the transaction de-
veloped by a young lady friend of Miss
Myers who lives in Brunswick, writing to
Charlie Myers at Augusta concerning his
sisters disappearance. Myers at once wrote
to John Mock of Albany, his uncle and
guardian of Miss Myers. Mock tbereupon
wrote the young lady here that Lizzie was
she could learn the story from her own
lips. On the strength of this the young
lady mentioned the matter to a Net0S re-
porter, and the following item appeared in
this paper last Tuesday:
Miss Lizzie Myers, niece of John Mock
of Albany, Ga, wuose continued absence
caused her friends so much uneasiness, has
suddenly returned to her family"
This was read in Albany, and friends of
the young lady in question at once wrote to
the young lady here, asking what it meant,
as no one there has seen Miss Myers or knew
of her return
The above was shown an Albany gentle
man yesterday, and he says Mr.. Mock and
and there is mystery about the affair that
he is unable to solve. Mr.. Mock was in
Macon a few days ago on visit, and did
not mention anything about it. He thinks
there is a misunderstanding somewhere.

Where Children Are Stolen


Incidents have occurred in Naples during

what happened both here and in Sicily
some thirty or forty years ago. A cry was
raised then that "poisoners' were about in
flcting fearful suffering under the nome
of cholera. Suspected persons were hunted
in the streets as though they were wild
beasts, humanity in an active form was re-
garded as a crime, and benevolent persons
prescribing or giving remedies to sufferers
were in universal danger of becoming vic
tins of popular fury. Many years have
passed since then, yet under different

the cry of alarm, and perfect panic en-
sued. Mothers shut up their children in
their houses. The doors of the infant and
higher schools were besieged 10y crowds of
weeping women looking for their children
and giving orders to the mistresses not to
intrust them to any but trustworthy per-
sons commissioned by the relatives. In
spite of all efforts to disabuse the minds OF
the ignorant, the pauic continued. There
were not many children said to be missing
but where were theyl As is always the
case in such circumstances, reports were
circulated by ill-disposed persons sure to
find believers among ignorant multltudes.
Perhaps the panic was que 10 certain eX-

any amount of excitement in city and

human beings for the most degrading pur-
