An Astonishing Baby.

Sunday afternoon about four o'clock
the police were notified that a baby had
Heen found in the bushes near the Acad.
'smy Spring, in the northern part Of the
city. Detective Schlapbach and Officer
sJooksey hurried to the place and sure
enough found an infant only few hours
ole. The child was perfectly nude and
c.ying piteously. From the information
obtained it appeared thatseveral children
lad been playing in that neighborhood,
and being attracted by the cries Of the
youngster, made search for it's where.
abouts and discovered it hidden among
.oIne bushes and leaves. They reported
the matter at once. When the officers
arrived quite crowd had collected and
the infant was given into the hands OF
SIN old colored woman until the mother
CT the child could be found. Everything
pointed to the fact that the child had
been born at the place where twas found.
Chief of Police Kennedy and the other
officers began 8 search, and after several
hours of sklllful work and questioning.
came to house where it was reported
that colored woman was sick. They
went in and found Clora McKimly, and
accused her of being the mother of the
infant.
For long time she persistently denied
il, and maintained her innocence until
.t0ld that she would be arrested and took
to Jail. She at last made confession and
said that on Saturday about O'clock in
tss afternoon she gave birth to the-child
and had managed to get back to the
kouse where she was then located, leay'
lag the infant without food or clothes
there in the woods. The woman, under
threats of arrest, consented to have the
child brought to her to care for.
a curious part of the find and a puz

Duel to the Death.

BIRMINGHAM, ALA, May 24.-Just at
B., adown yesterday duel to the death
was fought in a dense wood about two
miles from Brownsville, small country
village in Madison County. George Will
son and James Rountree, young farmers,
we're the principals in the affair. Wilson
was killed at the second fire. For several
months the young men have been paying
attentions to the same young lady. They
had been warm friends since boyhood,
but through their rivalry became Jealous
of each other. Last Sunday Rountree
escorted the young lady. to church. Will
son was there, and, seeing them together
after the aervice, approached the couple
and asked the young lady if he could es.
cort her home. She replied that she
already had an escort. This seemed to
anger Wilson, and he said something to
Rountree, who replied:
"You are not gentleman. I will not
notice you."
.'You will hear from me soon," said
Wilson as he turned and walked away.
Next day Rountree received achallenge
to fight duel with pistols at ten PAGES.
at first he decided not to fight, but that
evening Wilson met him in crowd and
taunted him with ccwardice. "I'll meet
you, you cur, and show you I am no
coward" Rountree at last retorted. The
preliminalies were then arranged and the
men met yesterday at sunset. The pistols
used were 38 cslibre Smith q Wessons,
and the distance ten PAGES. Both men
fred at the word, taking deliberate aim.
Wilson received slight flesh wound in
the side aud his bullet grazed Rountree's
left arm.
"Gentlemen, are you satisfied ?" the
seconds asked.
mo-" answered Wilson and raising
his pistol he fired at Rountree again be.
fore the seconds could give the word.
He missed his man. and before be could
fire again Rountree, who was perfectly
cool, raised bis pistol and taking careful
aim, fired. As the SHOT rang through the
forest Wilson threw up both hands and
sank to the ground dead. Rountree's
second bullet had passed through his
neck and severed the spinal cord. As
soon 40 the party learned that Wilson was
dead Rountree and his friends left the
spot. Rountree is supposed to have fled
the country, as he has not been seen
since the occurrepee,-Neao York Times.

A Plucky Wife

The following is unique advertisement,
taken from an old Rhode Island paper {:
Whereas, My husband, Charles F. San.
ford, has thought proper to post me, and
accuse me of having left his bed and
board without cause, ETC., / wish to make
it known that the said Charlie never had
bed, the bed and furniture belonging to
me, given to me by my father; the room
and board he pretended to furnish me
were in Providence, where he left ME
alone, while he stayed in the Valley with
his "Ma." he offered me 5000 to leave
him and 60 home, telling at the same
time that ]. could not stay at the place he
had provided for me, and as / had never
seen the named sum, I suppose he will
let me have it if I can earn the amount.
It was useless for Charlie to warn the
public against trusting me on bis account,
as my father has paid my bills since my
marriage as before.
Moral.-Girls, never marry a man not
wesned from his "Ma," and don't marry

about 25 years of age, was shot and killed
this morning by John T. Lyon.
The weapon used was a double.barrelled

Mr. Lyon was seen to enter the village
academy, by which Mr.. Mabry had to pass
ON his way to his Office, with a double.
barrelled shot gun in his hands. He is
reported to have said he had the gun to
give to some boys who were going squirrel

When Mr.. Mabry approached the
academy Mr.. Lyon stepped out and
'Do you want to 6ght?" leveling his

Enconragem ent for Farmers.

New YORK, May 24.-The Board of
Managers of the New York Cotton Ex.
change to day endorsed the report of the
Committee on Trade in ths matter of the
letter of the Farmers National Alliance,
of New Orleans, which recommended
uniform bales for cotton, and the use of
cotton bagging for baling. The commit.
tee approve the idea of uniform bales of
500 pounds each. The use of cotton bag
ging for covering, the committee believed,
would use up a cheap grade cotton and
form the means of employment for many
hands in the manufacture. It would be
advantsgeously used in exporting. 1t
was considered useless for the New York
Cotton exchange to pass any rule in the
matter. 1t was referred to special
committee.

WASHINGTON, May 24.-The President
ssto: day appointed Abial Lathrop District
Attorney for South Carolina to succeed
LEROY +. Youmans. This act Of the
President caused much sorrow and disap-
apointment in the Brayton and Melton
camps. Each was confident after con-
smiling the President and Attorney Cen
Seral Miller q few days ago that the
appointment would drop into his indiyid-
asual grasp; hence their surprise must be
svery. great. At the White House it is
said that neither Mr.. BraytOn nor Judge
Melton created very favorable impres.
gsion on the appointing power, and Mr..
sBrayton spoiled whatever chance be may
have had by confding to q friend of the
administration the fact that he hsd not
spracticed law fora number ofyears. In
making this selection the President ig-
lEEnored the contending South Carolina fac.
aftions and picked out comparatively
sIdark horse.

sI,nocked ont when they saw the official
sslnnouucement, and they are like strangers

which way to turn or what course to pur-
ssue. They claim that Mr.. Lathrop is not
q agaaeparty leader by any means, and while
shesis regarded as q negative man, his
spersonal affiliations have been with the
democrats more than with the Republi.
scsns. Whether the regulars will hold an
indignation meeting and denounce the
