Some years since a Young woman

and separated, and the woman afterward
married a man named Smith. But a
short time elapsed before separation took

reside long together, the woman from
that time forward living alone. Tues

found in bed the next morning.

was examining them a man began play

music seemed to annoy the lady, and

On returning to the counter she said
that none Of the pins suited her, but that
as some compensation for the trouble she
had given, she would buy a brooch. She
accordingly chose one, paid ten francs
for it, and was leaving the shop when the

THE ABBE,

primitive. Thea able has been compelled
to build a large house for the benefit Of
the clergy, for priests also ask to be cured
by their cOnfrere.
The able receives at the p~resbytery,
and begins consultations at 8 o'clock in
the morning. The great physician sits
in q large room Oh the ground floor, sur,
rounded by pupils. The able is Il fine
looking man. His regular features and
fresh complexion denote health, and his
broad, high forehead, hardly touched by
d wrinkle, is framed in white hair.
His eyes are the bluest and brightest I
have ever seen, for his soul seems to be
concentrated in these eyes, and they pene-
trate you through and thrOugh-in fact,

at a patient and in diagnosis he never
crrs. Some who went to the priest with
despair in their hearts left him buoyed
up by courage and with the assurance
that their diseases were not incurable.
>AIthOugh the able says Il cannot de-
stroy death,' still he has cured many
whose diseases batiled the skill Of others.

horrible ANGER asked his advice. Calm

A CHASTITY DISCOVERY.

| Rafe Asburry, an old colored
man came in about Z o'clock Thurs
day night and reported to the au-
thorities that at 4 o'clock while look
ing for his COWS in Mr.. J. r. Brophy's
pasture three miles west of this city,
he had made the frightful discovery
of dead white woman lying beside
an unfrequente'1 road through the
pasture. He FASTENED from the spot
and reported tn g matter to some of
his neighbors, n one of whom could
identify her, whe,n they were piloted
to the place where she was found.
The old man was sent here at once
for an officer, that an inquest might
be held, but Just ice Curry was out
of town and Judge Kirk was at his
room sick, conse' luently at late
hour no one had been found who
was authorized to hold an inquest.
The case is a TRANCE one, men
who were raised in the community did
not know the won AN, and the fact
of her being old, enders it all the
more strange that an old woman
should have been II smbling through
there far away from home or friends,
No inquiry has bee n heard of any
woman missing in t, he county, all of
which thickens the m ystery.

Four of the buns that have been
hanging around here for the past

of them were run in late Thursday
evening by Marshal Swain. The po-
lice have instructions to arrest
every one of them as they are
found. A determined effort will be
made to rid the city of the gang,
which is one of the toughest that
ever struck here. It is believed
that they are here for no good and
that their room will be more accept
able than their company.

WEDNESDAY night Policeman John
Lockett arrested and locked up Joe
Bradford, a bum, who has been
around here only few days, for the
theft of three lamps taken from HUI
ber's bazaar Wednesday evening.
The thief had no earthly use for the
lamps, as evidenced by the fact that
before he was captured he had given
two of them away, but perhaps just
stole them because the opportunity
presented itself, being such a consti-
tuted thief that he would perhaps,
steal anything he could carry, and
that wasn't nailed.
