THE HAYES HORROR,

The latest development in the
Halves murder case is the capture
by two Birmingham, Ala, Age
Herald reporters of colorcd man
supposed to have been an eye-wit-
ness of the murders. The reporters
got on the mans trail and followed
him 1900 miles, finally capturing
him in Middleton, Tenn. The man
claims that he is the twin brother
of the man who saw the killing of
Mrs. uawes. This brother told him
he. saw man strike Mrs. Halves
with a club. The lady then ran,
and Fannie Bryant caught and fin
iShed her. He also saw them carry
the bodies of Mrs. Halves and the
little girls through the woods to
East Lake. The testimony will
probably have an important bearing
on the trial and bring Fannie Bry-
ant into the case. He says that
two white men assisted HAYES to
dispose of the bodies.

Hakluyt tells us of certain Master
Killingworthe, of the court of Ivan the
Terrible, whose beard was five feet
two inches long 1t is also on record
that John Mayo, the German, painter,
had beard which swept the ground
as he walked. These hirsute growths
have hitherto been unrivaled of their
kind, but they are now put altogether
in the shade by a beard which has
reached the extravagant length of ten
feet, and, we are assured, is still grow
ing. The owner, a certain Louis Gou-
Ion, is foreman of ironworks at Mont
lucon, in the French department of the
Allier. He was born in the Nievre, and
at the age of IL was obliged to shave.
No sooner was the razor used, however,
than whiskers, mustache, and beard
became quite unmenageable, and, not
withstanding the activity of all the
BARRIERS and the nostrums of all the
quacks in the department, soon quite
covered the waistcoat of the youthful
patriarch Goulon is now well adj
vanced in years, and his beard, which
was originally brown, is almost white.
The silvery hairs are, however, as Wig
orous as their chestnut predecessors,

has learned to turn his monstrous APP
pendage to practical account, and he
uses it as a comforter and chest pre-
server, and sometimes even as belt.

A Moodman,s Nerve.

Elisha Lathrop, of Bozrah, Conn, is
the proud possessor of real, genuine
nerve; in fact, he would be pleased to
hear of any man who has more of it. In
hauling logs in the forest large log
was thrown from the sleigh and it fell
on his leg, breaking it below the knee.
So heavy was the stick that Mr..
Lathrop's men had to hitch the oxen
by chains to the log and draw it off his
body. Mr.. Lathrop was not ratified,
although his men were. They lifted
him to the bottom of the sled and then
helped him to pull off his trousers.
Then, with the aid of the men, and
by means of bandages, and by dint of
severe tugging at the member, Mr..
Lathrop set his own leg. He had never
seen broken leg set before, but he
said afterward, in describing the opera
ton: II looked at the other leg for a
guide and fixed up the bad one just
like it." After getting the broken
bones into the right place be bound
cloths tightly about the leg, mounted
the load and was driven home. Then
he hitched up his horse and drove nine
miles to the house of Dr. Sweet, the
natural bone-setter. Sweet examined
the job.
"Who set this leg? ?" he asked.
''I did," said Lathlop.
"Well," responded the Doctor, II
never saw better job. You can drive
right home again now. There is moth
ing left for me to do. o."-SdginGlO
