startling character. Miss Charlotte
Clapp, lady of about so years and a
most estimable woman, has become the
victim of strange Authorization Al
though in her sane moments of sweet dis
position and Christian character she
labors under the religious mania that she
is lost SOUL and that she is barred out
from heaven only because she cannot die
and be buried. Carrying out this insane
idea she has several times attempted self
destruction by burying herself in a self
made grave. At one time last spring she
was missed, and when found was in q
grave three feet deep that she had dug
with her own hands and was trying TO
pull the earth over herself with a hoe.
Last Saturday night she arose quietly.
dressed herself and escaped from her
chamber. When her absence was dis
covered, search party was organized,
and after a long search she was found al
most completely buried

wAsHoUr ON rHE CENTRAL.
Trains All Going Around by Augusta
and Millen 70 Atlanta.


Two washouts ON the Central 40 the
sixty two mile post between Dover
and Ogeechce were discovered yesterday
afternoon az s 50, Just a short time after
the 6.20 train passed the point
The tainmHster was 40 once notified
and arrangements were made 10 handle
the trains. The first of the washOuts was
twenty feet long and five feet deep. and
the second about twelve feet long and of
the same depth. Two material trains
and a force of sixty hands have been
sent out To the scene of the
washouts and trainmaster Epperson says
the track viii be in good condition by
tonight.
The Nancy Hanks coming down from
Atlanta was detained at Millen and its
passengers will come down on the train
that arrives in the city at O'Clock in the
morning. They will come, however
by a rather circuitous route The
train will go over the Augusta and
Savannah from Millen TO Augusta, thence
to Fairfax via the Port Royal and Augusta
and from Fairfax to Savannah via the
South Bound. The train from Atlanta
due TO leave at S:45 o'clock
last night teft on time and took that
route. 1t is hoped that arrangements
can be made to transfer the passengers
on the Nancy Hanks, which leaves this
morning, across the washout to the other
Hancy Hanks train, in which case the
train will arrive in Macon only about
forty-fve minutes late. The train due at
6 O'Clock this morning will arrive at or
ten on account of the Circuituous route
taken via Augusta and Fairfax.
The washout was caused by the heavy
rains which have occurred recently. The
point is near the Ogeechee river, and the
Central has been troubled with periodical
washouts at this place. All the
trains with the exception of the Nancy
Hanks, stopped at Millen, are running
now and are going via the South Bound
