room enough between its pillars for the
great Jehovah to st, Id. In that one frozen
drop on the tip of Jour finger you may find

SOUTHERN GLEANINoS.
Bitten by a "BIue-Gum- Negro.

At Mobile, Ala, Police Officer John
King died from the effects of poisoning,
from the bite of what is generally
known as a "blue gum" negro. Four
years ago last February Officer King
arrested negro named Richard
Richards The negro resisted, and in
the struggle bit Kings hand, decorating
it terribly. King was taken with a
high fever, his arm swelled, and when
the swelling began to subside the dis
ease broke out in his right foot and
spread SO as to involve the leg, the re-
suit being that he was laid up for
six months. When he came out
from his sick room he was
an aged man in appearance. He was
but %, and up to the time of the poison
ing was as strong aud as handsome a
young man as one would care to see.
He never recovered the full use of his
limb and slowly sank under the effects
of the poison which had shattered his
system. For two months past he has
been lingering between life and death.
The other day his sufferings came to an
end The negro who bit King was at
the time of the assault noted in the pa
pers as a "blue-gum" negro, and it is
believed in this portion of the country
that bite from the teeth of such an
one is fatal. Kings case is the latest
evidence in support of this opinion.

THE PATH TO PRISON.

President Dill of the Clearfleld and HoutZ
dale Pa.) Banks in n Fair Way to See
the Inside of n Penitentiary for His Dis
honesty-Once a Modest Minister, Uni
yersally Respected, Now Charged will
Serious Felony.
PITTSBURGH, Pa, Oct. S.-A special
to the Times from Clearfield, Pa, says
The way is being gradually paved fol
President Dill's transit to the peniten
tiary. Bank Examiner Miller made in
formation before Justice of the Peace
Mccullough, charging Dill with falsify
ing the banks books by making false
entry of $4,000 on July IA. Dill is a
prisoner in his own house. To-day
other information will be filed against
him by the bank examiner. Bail will
not be fixed until the extent of the
crookedness is discovered.
It was stated on indisputable author
ity last night that SS5, 900 additional to
the $4,000 had been found missing.
The bank examiner refused to say any
thing about the latter discovery until
he has more information. He ad-
mitted, no vever, that the amount was
S35, 900, and said he had as yet only
gone over a part of the books
The room in which Dill is a prisoner
is furnished in palatial style and the
floor is carpeted with .rugs of kingly
taste. Paintings on the wall are OF
values seldom seen outside of a gallery.
Until yesterday all but few hot
headed depositors believed him not
guilty of premeditated dishonesty.
Before Dill entered into financial cir
cles he had been a modest minister and
had always been held in high standing.
Mr.. Dill claims he knows nothing
about the books being falsitied. and
said he felt sure the matter would be
righted in court
On account of the bank being ma
tional one. depositors will undoubtedly
be paid in full.
