ABSOLUTELY PURE
Attempted Suicide.

John Is. Lotion. u white man aged
about 10 years. who has been engaged
most of the time for five years past in
hauling logs for the saw mills in this
county, made a desperate attempt on
his own life at Nalty's saw mill. 3miles
east of Brookhaven, last Thursday.
Domestic troubles are the supposed
cause. Lotion, who already had liv-
ing wife and three children, went from
here to johnson Station the day before
Christmas, and was there married to
another woman named Mrs. Josephine
Brazier, widow with two children.
said to have come, not long since, from
.Hattiesburg. A day or two after the
marriage he came back to Mr.. Joe Nor
ris's, his brother in Jaws, at Nalty's
mill, without his new wife, and appar-
emily very Respondent. On last Thurs
day he went out hunting with son of
Mr.. Norris, who carried 32-calibre
Marlin rifle, and two or three times
entreated the young man to kill him.
as he was tired of life. On returning
to the house at noon Lotion got hold
of the rifle, while most of the family
were at dinner, and, standing before "a
glass in room where his eldest daugh-
ter and one of Mr. Norris's children
were sitting, he placed the muzzle I'M
der his chin and pulled the trigger.
The load made frightful wound, tear
ing away his entire chin and under
jaw, cutting his tongue nearly out, de-
stroying all of his teeth and coming
out through the bridge of his nose. but
did not prove fatal, and after falling
to the floor, the desperate man, still
conscious and bent on self obstruction,
made another attempt to use the rifle.
Being batiled in this, he then drew his
knife and attempted to use it, but was
prevented by Mr. Norris.
Lotion, still alive, was brought to
the Magee Hotel yesterday, and if he
lives long enough will be sent to the
New Orleans hospital. DR.. Bennett,
who was seen by LEADER reporter
last night, does not think he can ulti-
mately recover.

Good Piney Woods Farming.

Mr.. Nola White, an industrious and
energetic young farmer of the North
eastern portion of Lawrence county.
near Malcum, was in town last week
and gave THE LEADER the following re
suit of his farm operations for the
year 1893: 1015 bales of cotton, 220
bushels of corn. loo bushels of sweet
potatoes, Ill gallons of Louisiana mo-
lasses. severa. bushels each of field
peas, rice and Irish potatoes, and 600
pounds of home-raised pork. He used
= horses and did all work himself eX-
cept $3.50 paid out for hired help, and
the land cultivated, he said, was old,
thin dry creek land.
The LEADER is always gratified when
able to publish such crop reports as this.
1t shows what can be done in our pi-
ney woods section by the right kind of
farming and should be an inspiration
to our farmers generally. 1t is need
less to add that Farmer Nola White
is not disturbed in his mind about
where his home provisions are to come
from for 1894, besides having his sub
scription paid up for THE LEADER and
The Home and Farm for over a year in
advance.

Baby "A Little Wait.

Some weeks ago colored woman
from some portion of Mississippi was
sitting in the waiting room of the |. G..
r. r. depot in New Orleans. While
there nice appearing white woman
approached and requested her to hold
her baby until she could get drink
of water. The negro woman complied
and the white woman disappeared
and has never returned to claim her
five weeks old girl babe. The colored
woman remained for quite while en-
deavoring to find the owner, but she
was unsuccessful. She therefore board
ed the train for Mississippi. Arriving
at Hartman & Aliens Mill five miles
below here, she gave the babe to a col
ored woman living near there, who
seemed to be infatuated with it,
The white people of the neighbor-
hood soon discovered the above facts
and, believing the infant would be bet
ter off in their possession, requested
her of the negress. She refused to re-
linuuish her claim. Several represen-
tative white citizens then came into
town and laid the matter before JUS
tice Mcmillan, who informed them
that the the law would afford them no
remedy, but that they could probably
obtain possession by strategy. This
they did on Thursday night last and
the babe is now in possession of Mr..
James Il. Allen, who adopted it as a
member of his family. They certainly
deserve great praise for taking such a
lively interest in the little waif.-Lin-
coin County Times.

The Fifth sunday Meeting.

The fifth Sunday meeting of the
Fair River Association was very slim
ly attended the first two days and lit
tie done on account of the heavy rain
of Friday and Friday night. Rev. r.
j. Boone, Moderator. informs THE
LEADER that there was fairly good
attendance on Sunday and two
subjects of the program. Sabbath
Schools" and The duty of pastors to
their churches and churches to their
pastors" were discussed in an inter
esting and instructive way by Rev. j.
Green and others. The members of
Mt. Moriah congregation furnished a
splendid basket dinner on the grounds
and Christian hospitality abounded.
The only thing that occurred to dis
turb the pleasure and harmony of the
day was the conduct of drunken
rowdy. which Bro. Boone describes as
simply outrageous, and which the peo-
pie of Mt. Moriah Church owe it to
themselves and to their guests to see
is properly punished.
The union adjourned to meet with
the Little Bahala Church on Saturday
before the fifth Sabbath i'll April.

self. wife and one boy are confined to
their beds.
There has been much whisky sold
and many hogs stolen, and no doubt
will many lies be sworn to keep the
next grand jury from finding bills
against the parties concerned; and now
it will be in keeping with their former
practice for some folks to rise up and
say that the laws against such ought to
be repealed; but | would suggest that
for the sake of honest consistency,
they do not try to separate the two
crimes.

that fully 1000 bales more will be re-
ceived between now and Sept. LIST,
which will carry the receipts for this
commercial year to over 1900, the
largest in over 20 years.
