After taking few doses she seemed 20

Shortly after 1890 yesterday morning
the loud and continuous blowing of the
steam tannery whistle in Vest Salem
denoted trouble. Upon visiting the spot
it was found that small fire ad started
in one of the ventilators over the bark
house, but it was extinguished in few
minutes by the use of the large hose,
through which strong stream OF water
was forced by the steam pump. Much
dust from the tan bark collects in these
ventilators, and stray spark from the
engine had lodged there. Luckily the
damage was trifling, but Superintend-
ent Speicht did not stop the use of the
hose until all the twelve ventilators
were cleared of dust.

The PARROT High school.

The closing exercises of the PARROT
High School gave marked satisfaction
to every one. The commencement
sermon, by Rev. S. w. Stubs, was
instructive, and in his practical illusS

conviction to the minds and hearts of
all who listened to him. The literary
address of Col. M. G. Edwards was a
gem, and showed breadth of thought
that was most complimentary to the
speaker. The examinations were
critically conducted, and each pupil
gave evidences OF having been we'll
instructed in all methods of mental
study. The Parrott High School is
doing a good work for the children
and no better school can be found
elsewhere for the proper training of
the young. WELL WIsHER.

A BLACK BRUTE
NARROWLY MISSES ORNAMFNTTNG
THE END OF A ROPE

For An Attempted Outrage Upon a Young
Lady Who Was on Her Way to Church.
Judge Guerry Wanted at BlalxIev.
Last week Judge Query was request
ed by the citizens of Blakely to 90 down
and hold special term of Early court
for the purpose of trying black brute
who attempted to outrage a young lady
OF that town several days ago.
Solicitor-General Griggs is in Chicago,
and for that reason Judge Query has
not yet held the court. He will proba-
bly, do so as soon as the solicitor returns.
The following tells the particulars of
the heinOus Intention of the black vii
lain:
On last Sunday morning, at about 10
O'Clock, the usual quiet of Blakely was
broken by the report that the 14-year
old daughter of Mr.. John Rish had been
assaulted by Abe Brown, young negro
we'll known in that town.
Mr.. Rish lives about half mile beyond
the town limits, on the Damascus road.
His daughter left home Sunday morning
to attend church, and just after crossing
the Perryman branch, was accosted by
the negro, who was standing in the
edge of the wood, and ordered to come
to him. The child was terribly frighten-
ed, and ran screaming. The wretch
pursued and threatened to shoot, but
the appearance of two negro women,
who heard her cries and rushed from
their homes prevented, in all probability,
horrible crime.
Sheriff Black, with number of deter
mined men, promptly organized a pur-
suiEg party. and a good portion OF the
surrounding country was secured in
search of the fugitive negro, who, foiled
in his purpose, and knowing that he was
recogniz ed, fled for his life. Had he
been caught Immediately, certain death
would have been the result.
He was captured late in the afternoon
at Hilton station by Marshal Brownlee.
The would be rapist denied his identity
when questioned by the marshal, and
fought like demon for his liberty, but
was soon Overpowed and delivered to
Sheriff Black and his assistants, who had
gone on to the river. The party return
ed to town and landed the negro in Jail,
despite the threats of some, who, but
for the wise counsel of cooler heads and
the want of leader, would have wreak-
ed vengeance on the unhappy wretch.
Mr.. Rish, the father of the little girl,
and an honored citizen of the county,
advised that the law be allowed to take
its course, and to him the prisoner owes
his life.
The Sheriff placed guard at the Jail,
and gave them instructions to protect
the prisoner against all corners, and if
lynching had been attempted, there
would probably have been bloodshed.
On MONDAY the prisoner was carried
to Albany and placed in Jail for safe
keeping.
