About two years ago Mrs. BENJAMIN
Braughn, of Atlanta, Ga, cut the hair
from the head of her little two-year
old child, and saved one curl, about
an inch and half in length. A few
weeks later the child became i'll and
died. Yesterday Mrs. Braughn open
ed the box in which she had laid
away the little ringlet, and was as.
tonished to find that it had grown to
be two feet in length. No one had
touched the box, and Mrs. Braughn is
certain that the curl is the same one
she put away two years ago. The
fact that the hair was clipped very
close to the head may account for the
strange occurence.-.tt'anta (Ga.)

ALLEGED SCANDAL.


statement OF the Accused FNrty.
The following telegram appeared in
the Dallas News of to-day:
WACO, Texas, July 2O.-A capias
was issued tonight for the arrest of a
citizen of Waco hitherto enjoying All
excellent character. He is charged
by married lady with making
gross assault upon her tonight. The
process will be served tomorrow and
1t will send a thrill from center TO
circumference of the city of Waco.
The NEWS reporter has ascertained
the following statement to-day, from
the gentleman the above telegram
very probably refers to: He said his
room Is situated in little house on
North Sixth street the same building
being occupied by a German peddler
and his wife and that he has, on ac-
count of the hot weather, been sleep
ing near an open window, and the
German woman has been in the habit
of making her pallet on a gallery in
close proximity to his sleeping apart
ment.
On night before last he said think
ing probably he could get the woman
to change her sleeping place, made he
his pallet on the gallery, but the
woman made her bed in the usual
place. The gentleman further stated
that he had some little conversation
with the woman before either of them
had retired, but this conversation was
simply of an ordinary nature, such as
passing the salutations of day, etc.
That night the gentleman Gays that
he ..awoke and found that his fair
neighbor was rather close to him,
this he says was done probably in
her sleep las she was apparently
asleep when he awoke;) he then
reached out and touched her with his
hand, this Immediately aroused her
from the peaceful slumber she was
enjoying. He states that he then said,
Ego to sleep, don't be afraid, nobody
is going to harm you," he claims she
| UncH bOoLlCO w pC oOhiOW buV pbCiuOus
Next morning he said several Ger
mans came up to the womns house and
overhearing statement she was
making to them in regard to
the affair, he went out
where the parties were and made an
explanation of the matter assuring
them that no harm was intended. The
gentleman also stated that he had
made statement of the whole affair
to Justice Makeig OH yesterday. No
warrant for his arrest has been served
up to this writing, nor is there likely
to be. as he has made clear state
ment of the matter which strongly
indicates that no criminal intentions
were meant.

bored holes in the wood work of the

enough to admit the arm so as to
shove back the bolts of the door and
thus effected an entrance. About
twelve or fifteen, dollars had been
left in the cash drawer and this the
burglars took together with about
two dollars and a half in mutilated
coin and counterfeit dollar in the
lower part of the cash box. One OF
two articles of goods were taken but

Democratic Menbers-How the
Fight Drags Ga.

WASHINGTON, April 11.-Although the
announcement of the fact that Demo
cratic caucus would be held tonight was
made when but few members were in at
tendance, the proceedings ran smoothly
and no bad feeling was developed. After
many motions had been offered PROPOSE
ton was made by Mr.. O'Farrell, of Vir.
ginia, representing what he said was the
extreme limit of fine concessions that
would be made by the friends Of
the bill. This proposition provided
that the direct tax bill should be postponed
until December Is next, with g condition
that when it is then taken up a reasonable
time will be allowed for debate and a vote
taken on it. Speaker Carlisle is said to
have strongly advocated the acceptance of
this proffered compromise.
The caucus adopted the following reso-
lution:
Rssolrsd That on reassemblirg to-mor-
low, the House shall adjourn with the un-
derStanGiDg that the Committee on Rules
will report special order setting apart
Thursday, December 6, 1888, Immediately
after the reading of the journal for the con-
sideration Of Senate bill 139, to provide for
q refunding of the direct tax levied in 1861,
in which order reasonable time, not tx
ceed three days, viz: Thursday, SATURDAY.
and Tuesday, shall be allowed for debate
and amendment, and the time for a vote
on IFS final passage ,shall be fixed at
O'Clock on Tuesday.
Mr.. Ccx on calling the caucus to order,
made sbart speech, in which he appealed
to his Democratic colleagues to present a
united front, sud sacrifice their individual
feelings for the sake of party harmony,
which sentiment was voiciferously ap-
plarded. The caucus adjourned at IL 90.

But, by the way, is the REGISTER, which

There is another point we should like to
