Obituary..

IF we knew the baby fingers,
Pressed aglnst the window pane,
Would be cold and stiff tomorrow
Never trouble us again
Would the bright eyes Of our darling
Catch the frown upon our brow?
Would the prints of rosy fingers
Vex us then as they do nOw?"
But the brief life little Robert only
child of MI. and Mrs. j. @. Simpson was
Strewn witlluntiring patience and loving
smiles. No regrets fill the hearts of the
fond mother and father as regards their
devotion to their angel boy Perhaps
the little treasure was too much idOliz-
ed. He was taken il IN Sunday Sept. II,
INST. with congestion and suffered for
several days. but hope cheered the
hearts Of all, until Thursday, when CON
WILSON'S seized the childish form and it
was palpable the little life was rapidly
waning All that loving hearts and
skilled physicians could do was gladly
done, butnone could say the hand Of
death. When twilight stole over the
anxious home, the messenger entered
and the sweet little babe lay dead in its
own mothers arms. That heart crushed
mother pressed the lifeless form to her
bosom, as though she would reanimate
the little body and call back the sweet
spirit that was winging its way heaven
ward. In two days more baby Robert
would have been one year old. Dreary,
hushed and lonely is that home which
his lovely presence frightened and
cheered for twelve happy months, but
his pure, innocent spirit will gladden. the
choir of heaven through eternity.
The remains were inferred at Shellman.

Cuthbelt, Ga, Octobe Young
Charles simpson, who was arrested in
Columbus, OAi under charge of Sc
duction, was brought to this place today
by Sheriff Bynum. Mr. II. O. Beall,
father Of the wronged young lady, who
figured so prominently in Ohio as a des-
perate man, was arrested Immediately
upon his arrival here under peace war
rant. His bond was easily given, as he
has many Influential friends here
Simpson consents to marry the girl,
but his father says he shall not. A spe-
cial term of court has been ordered, and
Judge Griggs has been sent for Simp-
sons statement, that he was influenced
by the victim, is not believed here. Both
parties are from famil es who are bon
tons. H. o. Beall was clerk of the
court of Randolph county for many
years, and c. n. Simpson, father of the
betrayer, is the head of large bard
ware and grocery store. Public senti-
ment runs high in favor of Miss Beall,
though Simpson is not very extensively
condemned.

TRAPPING A MAN-EATER.

ture the Savage Striped Brute.


In trapping tigers for export the
Malays dig hole about ten feet deep,
making the bottom twice rs large in
area as the top. to prevent the ami
NAL from jumping out after being once
in. says a writer in the Century. The
hole completed, small brushwood is
lightly laid over its surface, and close
by, in the direction of the mouth OF
the pit, Il bullock is chained to
tree. On seeing the bullock the tiger
springs for his expected prey and
alights in the pit. A bamboo cage is
placed over the pit which is then filled
with earth, the tige: gradually coming
to the surface. Once in the cage. the
MalayS lace and interlacc bamboo and
rattan under the tiger. Spring guns
are come ines used. but not often, as
they are dangerous to dogs and human
but it ended in Il buffalo hunt. We Or
ganized a party Of five Europeans and
ten natives. We started on foot, be-
cause it is impossible to ride through
the jungle on horseback. On finding Il
tigers footprints we followed them to
Il ravine, where the tiger had been
drinking. Here we took our tittin, and,
while eating heard grOans which we
thought We're from the tiger Follow
ing the sound we saw an enormous
man-Cating tiger dashing away through
the brush. Shots were fired without
effect. On going further we discovered
that he had found a buffalo. and had
been making short work of him. These
buffalos are not like those found in
America, but smaller and more like an
OK. Later this same tiger was caught
in trap. We knew it was the same,
for not more than one is found near a
village ut a time. Oh al average four
or five people were killed by tigers on
this road in the course Of year
They generally seize their prey after
dusk, and for this reason it is never
safe to travel on these roads after 6
o'clock at night. 1t is said that a tiger
often selects his man during the day,
and PERHAPS follows him for miles,
until overtaken by dusk. when he
springs on him. Two gentlemen were
once walking over a pineapple planta-
ton. when they discovered that they
were followed by tiger. They were
three miles from home, and, having
nothing but shotguns for weapons,
could not fire at the animal. He kept
at the same distance behind them all
the way, and they reached home before
he attempted to attack. The natives
are in constant terror Of these animals,
and it is impossible to send them out
after dark. I paid $50 to a native for
taking a message to the maharajah
after 6 o'clock at night.

cause it is the largest active crater, but
because even in those rare intervals

may be closely inspected. When the
