While Polics Officer Gordon of Pensacola
was asleep at his home in the eastern por-
ton of the city at a late hour Sunday night,
he was aroused by the screams of a woman
in the neighborhood. Hastily dressing he
rushed to the house of Emile Suchet, near
by, from which the screams proceeded.
The officer says that Suchet was assaulting
his wife, and when he attempted to force an
entrance, Suchet blew out the light, and at
tackled him with some sharp instrument, in
ficting a cut on his hand. When the officer
felt that he was cut. he drew his pistol, and
felled Suchet TO the floor by blow over
the head with the butt of the weapon. In
the police court Suchet was fined $15
Pensacola Nel0s: While waiting for
train in the Union depot at Birmingham
Saturday night the writer saw a human
curiosity that is truly wonderful. 1t was a
little white boy years of age, OF slender
build, with head measuring thirty seven
inches in circumference, or more than one
yard around. The little fellow presented
most singular appearance, and was the cen
ter of attraction for tho crowds in the watt
ing rooms He is the son s. M. Mckay,
Jr., farmer living in Clay county. Ala
bama, who had him in charge. The father
stated that the boys head began to
enlarge when he was 3 years of
age, and continued to grow until 1t reached
its present enormus size. While in Birm-
mfngham saturday the boy was examined
by many N the leading physicians of that
city, who we're divided In opinion as to the
cause Of the abnormal growth, some hold
ing that it was the result of dropsy In the
head, while others believe that he has two
brains. The little fellow does not seem to
suffer any pain, and is bright and laxative,
but his slender body must grow weary from
carrying such a monstrous head.
Pensacola Netcs: Out on West Govern
ment street, about 8 O'Clock Monday after
noon, belligerent goat made things lively
for a while. The warm weather appeared
to have stirred up his bile, and he was in
mood for tackling anything that came
along. He first challenged few stray dogs
for fight, but they. one and ALL declined
and fed from the field. Next he espied
little girl playing on the the sidewalk, and
made a rush for the child, knocking her
down. The little girl screamed loudly, and
her mother and another lady sailed
forth to her rescue. One of the women
had an infant child in her arms and the
goat appeared at once to recognize the fact
that there was some fun ahead. With this
idea he prepared for battle in earnest, and
the screams Of the two women were soon
mingled with those Of the child lying on the
sidewalk. The chorus of screams attracted
the attention of colored man, who rushed
to the rescue, but before he could reach the
scene of action the goat had tumbled the
woman with the child in in her arms out
into the street, the baby's head narrowly
missing telegraph pole as she fell. By
this time the whole street was aroused and
a concerted attack made on the beligerent
goat soon put him t. flight. 1t was
ludicrous affair, but came near being seri-
GUS.
