A MONSTER ANIMAL.
He Was Seven Feet High, Gov
cred With Hair and Walked
Erect

ELrcCts
Clarksville Advertiser.
During the time the Indians were in
the South hunting party established a
camp east of the Tugalo river, in what
is now Oconee county. South Carolina.
One day they all went hunting, leaving
a deer they had killed the even
ing previous at the camp. At night
when the Indians returned to the
camp the deer was gone. and the next
day the same thing was repeated. when
they concluded to leave an old Indian
to guard the camp and see what went
with their deer. That day the old In
dian saw monster animal come and
carry off the deer, and was afraid to
make any attempt to kill the monster,
which was about seven feet high and
walked erect like man, hairy all over.
and its mouth was in the chin,
and great claws on the fingers and
toes. The next day all seven of the In
dians stayed at the camp, and as usual
the monster came, gathered up the deer
and started off, when one of them fired
at it, the ball taking effect in the back;
the animal dropped the deer and turned
and started toward them, when the
other six poured volley into its breast
and it fell dead. About three hours
after that the Indians heard noise like
some one hallooing about mile distant:
"Yaho, yaho, yahoH The Indians left
the camp and called on the posse COM
itatus for protection, when party of
whites on horses. with all the dogs they
could get, went in search of the other
animal and found it. 1t was like the
one the Indians killed, and putting the
dogs after it, when the men appeared in
sight, the animal would run, but it
could whip every dog they could get

the river over into Habersham county
and was shot by a party soon after it

HELM A HARD-A.PORT.
A Young Man Charged With Sc
ducing His Cousin.

One of the names on the municipal
court docket yesterday was that of Ed
Helm, which appeared opposite the
charge of seduction, with ]. NJ. Madison
as complainant. Helm was arrested the
night before on warrant sworn
out by the complainant Madison,
charging him with having accomplished
in 1887 the ruin of Cora Madison, the
complainant's sister, then fifteen years
of age. The case was continued, and
Helm was released on bail, which
was furnished by friends of his
father, the late George Helm.
The defendant claims the prosecution
has been begun with the hope of getting
money from him, but as he is not
wealthy this seems hardly probable.
While a prosecution at this time for an
offense alleged to have been committed
so long ago looks rather strange. those
claims that the child, which is but six
weeks old, was not the first
fruit of her intimacy with Helm
but that an abortion was performed at a
house in this city. and that this infant
is the result of subsequent intimacy.
The case will be called in Judge Ma
honey's court at O'Clock this morning.
Helm is quite well known among
the sports and men about town,
having worked for some time
in Palmer's billiard hall on
Sixth street, and later in the billiard
room at the Brunswick hotel. He
is a good amateur billiardist, and has
played several exhibition games with
well-known players. In appearance he
is quite preposseSsing, being tall, we'll
proportioned and erect, with dark hair
and eyes. He is about twenty-five
wears old.

HOW THEY LIVE QUIETLY.
Western Characters Who Have
Settled Down in Peace.

New York Tribune.
There is a host of men in these parts
who are leading quiet, et,respectable lives.
who did not use to be so respectable
and quiet. They came to the West
when it was the fashion to shoot a
man if you didn't like the cut of his
coat or thought his grammar too good.
Being at Rome, they did as the Romans
did. But as custom changed they
changed with it. Their blood still runs
briskly, however, and you don't want
to swear at them unnecessarily.
Though they rarely talk about it, they
are quite proud of their earlier career
and like to have it understood that
once upon a time they were ba-ad
men. One day last week big,
rOugh-looking fellow entered Pullman
car and began to smoke and sing vulgar
songs. The colored porter begged him
to deslst, but he shouted back that he
would smoke where he pleased and sing
what he pleased, and no blamed nlgger
could stop him. An elderly gentleman
sitting near called the porter aside and
asked him if he knew the express agent
in the forward car.
..Ys, sah," answered the porter, 81
does. sab; name o. Marshall, sah."
"Well. you give him this card and tell
him to come here Immediately"
The porter went off. and presently a
robust, heavy, thick-set fellow entered.
glanced about the Car, perceived the
elderly man, and came forward.
"Do you remember .me" said the
elderly man.
II guess so," was the rather hesita-
ting answer.
AREN'T you sure?"
"Yes."
"Do you see that fellow yonder, yell
ing and smoking"
YES"
"Can you get away with him?"
81 amt fearful to try"
"Put him in the smoking car"
The robust fellow promptly went over
to where the rough was sitting and said:
''Pardner, you've got to get out of here.
Pm told to put you out. Fightin's right
want no trouble, but it all lays with
you. Come, now, git'' q
For moment there were signs of a
battle, but in another moment the
rough thought better of it and meekly
allowed himself to be led away. The
robust fellow returned and reported
that it was all right. Il
you've lost none of your nerve since
saw you last" remarked the elderly
man. Ia
Marshall smiled all over. 81 guess
Pm some account yet. SIR" he replied.
II hope your knowing me amt going to
lose me my job?' 81
ooh, no. Take care of yourself;
that's all. d1
Marshall retired. Another traveller,
speaking to the elderly man. observed
that the express agent looked like a
good fighter.

A Woman's Greatest Luxury.

Chicago Herald.
The other day lady found herself in
group of temininity where the con-
versation drifted into the subject OF
wealth and as to what constituted lux
ury. Each woman present was asked
to name her hearts desire If money
grew on bushes and women were turned
loose in the field. The ladies, by the
way, were of moderate means, or their
notions of luxury would have had no
weight. They were educated and we'll
bred, or their fancies would not be
worth repeating. Now, a man would
naturally say that every woman braced
herself up and shouted In chorus: Dia-
mOnds, Iaces, silks and horses and car
raiges. Well, their verdict was nothing
of the sort.
The preponderance of desire set in
the direction of MAZDA trim, tidy,
deft, cat-fOOted maid, who would keep
all the paraphernalia of woman in ex-
quisite order, who neglected nothing
from the buttons on her boots to the
perfume on the mouchoir, who superin-
tended the bath, who understood the
proper use of all dainty toilet appli-
ances. and who, lastly, could relieve a
woman of the never-ending WEAKNESS
of combing her own hair.
That group of women spoke for all
other women.

THE BLOOMINGTON BRIDGE.
A Question as to Whether 1t Can
Re Ruilt

The county commissioners met yester-
day as board of equalization for the
county. No cases of special interest
came before them, as they are just be-
ginning the work. The owners of the
Bloomington ferry, who short time
ago secured temporary injunction re-
straining the commissioners from build
ing the bridge, appeared before the
board with an offer to sell their rights
for $4,000. They claim to hold an ex-
elusive franchise, and claim that the
county has no right to build the bridge.
The commissioners think they value
their rights too highly, and will wait for
the action of the court in the matter.
The commissioners moved to notify
the city council that, as the Lake street
and Marshall avenue bridge was within
the city limits that they should take
care of it,
