The horrible particulars of the murder
of two children by a maniac mother,
reached here yesterday. Joseph Dawson
and his wife, Sailie Dawson, live In the
Peters Greek section of Pickens County.
Thursday afternoon a neighbor who
chanced to pass by the house of the
Dawson family was horrified to see Mrs.
Dawson making an attack on one of her
younger children with an axe. The
neighbor succeeded in stopping the at
tack before the child had been killed
outright, but the little one lay on the
ground with blood streaming from it's
head. The bloody axe was wrested from
the mothers hand and other people com.
ing up, an investigation was made at the
house, and lying on the bed was found
the dead body Of the infant child of the
crazy mother. 1t had been choked to
death, and the blue marks on Its throat
showed plainly the desperate maniac's
work. The woman was at once locked
in room to prevent her from doing
further harm. The details of the shock.

terday, but it is supposed that Mrs. Daw.
son first choked the baby to death and
went to the spring and weshing place,
not far from the house, taking the axe
with her. There she found the older
child and Immediately attacked it. The
child struck with the axe was not dead
yesterday morning, but there is no prob
ability that it will live. Its skull is
thoug ht to be crushed. An inquest was
held Friday by the coroner of Pickens
County, who lives not far from the Daw-
sons. The verdict of the jury is not
known. The murderess is daughter of
John Julian, respectable farmer who
lives near Dacusville, in Pickens County.
She has not been of sound mind for some
time, but it was not thought that she
was dangerous and no grown person WAS
left during the husbands absence to
watch her actions.-Greenvil@ Neus,

"HANDY ANDY"
A Credltsble Dramatic Performance at
Westwood's Hall Last Night.

Westwood's Hall Last Night.
The entertainment and bean bake
given at Wcstwood's Hall, last night,
under the auspices of Stephens Corps,
G.. A. R., and the Woman's Relief Corps,
drew a large crowd, and quite a neat
sum Of money was realized.
The two act comic drama "Handy
Andy" was the principal attraction of
the evening. Mr.. A. T. Ray, the tai
ented amateur actor, sustained the title
role, and won frequent applause in his
admirable rendition Of the part. He
kept the audience in continual laughter
while he was upon the stage. AS
esquire Egan," Mr.. Chas. Ray sustain
ed his reputation as promising young
elocutionist, and Mr.. Carl White, as
esquire O'Grady," surprised his friends
by his ability. Miss Nora Bowman
fairly divided the honorS of the
evening with Mr.. A. T. Ray.
The character of mad Nance" is a
most difficult one, but Miss Bowman's
conception of the part left nothing to
be desired. Mr.. Chas. Burtt, who took
the part of "Mr. Furlong," lawyer, is
a young man who gives great promise
of future attachments. Mr.. Erwin Bow
man sustained the character OF ED
ward O'Connor" in very creditable
manner. Misses Ada Campbell and
Mary Ray, as 'Oonah Rooney" and
Fanny Dawson" won frequent. ap-
plause, and the characters of "Mr.
Murphy" and "Dick Dawson" imper-
sonated by Messrs. Fred. Stathers
and Fred. Steinbecker, were very
cleverIy portrayed. A musical olio took
place between the first and second acts.
The quartette did not appear, owing to
the illness of Mr.. r. V. Ankle. A violin
solo by Miss Dakin and comic song by
Mr.. James Quinn were received with
deserved applause.
After the entertainment beans were
served and discussed by the large
crowd. Ice cream and light refresh
ments were also served, and brief sea-
son was spent in social amusements.
Quite number of the members OF Hol-
liday Post went down after their meet

TWO ExOELLENr PERFORMANCES
Robert Downing Attracts Two Large Au-
dlences Yesterday.

L
dlences Yesterday.
There we're two large audiences at the
Opera House yesterday, and Robert
Downing in the various roles received
an enthusiastic reception.
The versatility of Mr.. Downing was
well illustrated by the rendition OF the
double comedy bill comprising
Shakespeare Katharine and Petru-
chic" and Dances French Marriage"
Mr.. Downing, Miss Blair, Mr.. +. c.
Mosely, Mr.. Edwin Ferry, Miss Erwin
and Mr.. Geo. MacOmber distinguished
themselves. 1t was hardly possible
TO realize that the same
man could impersOnate the impressive
dignity of the tragic roles OF the pre-
ceding performances, and as "Sonfroid, "
in French Marriage, keep the audience
cOnvused with laughter. Miss Blair
as "Katharina," and Mr.. Mosely as
.'Petruchio," brought out all the fine
humOr aud rolliCking mirth OF which
the lines are susceptible.
Many Knights and their ladies were
present in the big audience Of the even
ing. The audience was a large one,
and the play Damon and Pythias. Mr..
Downing played Damon, and Mr.. Nose
ly played Pythias, while Calanthe was
safe in the hands of Miss Blair. The
piece, as are all OF MIR. Downing's pro-
auctions, was we'll staged, and the en-
lertainment as 4 whole was enjoyable.
Mr.. Downing was suffering from a
slight cold, as was also Miss Blair and
one or two other members Of the COM
pany, but in many scenes they well
overcame the obstacle. When that true
friendship shown by Damon and Pythias
in the play was produced land
which only a Pythian can comprehend),
the enthusiasm was marked. Mr..
Downing is specially equipped for the
character OF the incompatible and patri-
otic Damon, and he sounds every note
In il with noble volume and bell-like
resonance. Dignity, momentum and re-
pose in the calmer aspects Of the play,
aud resiSteSs power in its stormier
sceneS-notably in the great scene with
Lucullus, following Damon's discovery
that his faithful slave has slain his
horSe-are salient features of Mr..
Downing's Damon.
1t is a role that severely tries the
actors self-culture aud reserve, but Mr..
DOwning's unfailing good taste saves
him from taking the short step from the
tragic TO the ridiculous. Mr.. Downing
certainly made the most OF the part.
In the first act, as the sturdy.
honest, patriotic Senator, moodily de-
Spondent over his country's ruin; and in
the second act, where he pleads for the
continuance of the Republic and defes
the conspiring traitors, he is seen to
good advantage. His response to Diony-
Sius, the contemptuouS surprise, the
defiant folding OF the arms, the unut-
terable ScOrn expressed as he sternly
says, "Am Senator?" is excellent.
OF Miss Blair it is ever pleasure to
speak, her beauty and personal charm
being always supplemented by intelli-
gent conception aud careful acting of
her roles. She we'll embodied the girlish
SelfiShneSS and hysterical outbursts Of
fear and grief which mark the part. In
the last act she especially utilized all
the opportunities.

A DEVILISH DEED.
INCINDIARIRS FIRE A VALLEY GROVE RES
DBNOl,
While the Occupants Are Aslssp-0il Freely Used
The Fire Discovered Before |. Gained
Much Hsadway-No Clue

News reached this city yesterday Of
most atrocious attempt at incendiarism,
occurring at Valley Grove, Thursday
night.
The attempt was made npon the resi-
dence of Else Bowman, a well-known
citizen of that portion of the county,
and the complete destruction Of the
property, with the inevitable roasting
alive OF the occupants, was narrowly
averted.
The operations OF the incendiary were
presumably commenced about midnight,
or shortly after. He carried quantity
of light wood, which was carefully piled
up against the porch door, and this and
the surrounding woodwork OF the
house, which is of frame. was well
saturated with oil. These preliminaries
completed, match was applied and the
cowardly perpetrator Of the outrage,
who did not hesitate to take the lives or
the helpless occupants OF the house to
complete his revenge, fled. About the
time the fire was started, Mr.. Bowman
CHANGED to awake, and the odor OF the
burning wood quickly brought him to
the spot where the fire was burning
With considerable difficulty the blaze
was extinguished and the property
saved, but had the flames had i've
minutes Roadway, it is very probable
that both Mr.. and Mrs. Bowman would
have been burned TO death.
A close search OF the neighborhood
after the fire failed to afford any trace
of the criminal, and there seems to be
no tangible clue upon which to work.
The arson of dwelling house In the
night time is punishable with death In
this State, and it will not be pleasant
for the fend if he falls into the clutches
of the law.

A Wild West Performance in Ticket
Office
John Foley, aged 10 years, is In Gus
tody for robbing the b. & o. ticket OF
fee at Bellaire. The young man has
been absorbing a great quantity OF light
literature Of poor character, and his
mind has become tainted. The daring
deeds of western Joe" and like char
acters filled him with wonder, and he
tried his hand at some of the wild west
business himself.
Foley pried open the door OF the b. & ".
ticket office on Friday evening, and while
in the place was surprised by Freight
Agent Carver, and asked his business.
Ticket Agent Haase showed up about this
time, and from reports had an interesting
time of it. Foley had captured IS that
was in the money drawer. He ran up one
fight OF stairs and down another, eludlng
his pursuers. Foley jumped freight
train bound for the West but was captured
ut GAINESVILLE and brought back 10 Bel
laire. The young man has heretofore nad a
good reputation. His parents are nign-y
respected people, the father being IN tue
employ OF the g. & o. Company at present.
The money stolen was secured.

IT has often been commented upon
how such an establishment as John
Becker & Co., Jewellers, could COM
mand the trade that they enjoy, and the
large stool. they carry at all seasons OF
the year, considering the location OF
their business. The keynote OF their
success is, they attend strictly to their
business, watch every detail, discount
all their bills, which enable them 10

their money than any other house.
