INHUMANITY UNPARALLELED
SIX-YEAR-OLD BOY LEFT IN THE
WOODS TO STARVE.
Unable to Move, Ants and Bugs
SWarmed in His Mouth. Most
PItiable Sight.

ATLANTA, Aug. 14.-An awful d.scov-
cry was made yesterday morning in the
woods near this point.
Some monster, in the human guise of
man or woman, carried little cripple
boy into the woods three or four DAYS
ago and left the helpless child to die of
starvation.
There it was found yesterday morning
by an accident and the frail young life
saved from a most horrible death. Such
things rave been heard of in stories of
ogres told to fri ghten children, but it
is rare that such a tale of terrible brutal
lty is recorded among the deeds of liv-
ing men.
The boy is between six and seven years
of age, with a bright, fair face, upon
which the marks Of physical suffering
are stamped. 1t is a hopeless invalid
unable to move its weak little BODY,
which was, perhaps, the reason why the
brute who left it to die in the woods
wished to get rid of it, 1t was a burden
and was hauled off as one would a de-
crepit dog or diseased Cat-a thing to
be despised and resigned to a slow and
fearful death.
The horror of the deed can but be i'm
agined by those who did not see the nit
iful object as it lay in the woods, unable
to move or cry out, with the ants and
bugs and flies swarming over its face
and eyes AND crawling into the parched
and fevered mouth. There it had lain no
one knows for how many nights hunger
ed and thirsty, with the damp earth for
bed and the pitiless stars to watch
over it-lain in the dew of the chilly
night and the heat of the Bultry sun
starving.
The child was found in dense skirt
of woods near where the McDonough
road intersects the Boulevard. This is
about four miles from the city.
lie lay upon his back, the only posi-
bic position he could occupy, and gazed
with his wide open eyes &C all who came
to look at him. He would not or could
not talk.
The bundle of clothes, which contain
ed few old garments for child, was
inspected closely, but there was no name
OF any kind upon anything. The clothes
were wrapped up in an old piece of
cloth.
The child was taken to the police sta
ton, land is being tenderly cared for bv the
police matrOn. He tries hard to talk.
but only few words can be understood,
Mamma just run from a wagon in the
woods" said the child to Miss Holloway.
the police matron, last night, land Law
me down in briars, kiss me and just cry.
Then mamma run back" The little
stranger seemed perfectly willing to talk,
and appeared anxious to tell who he was
and the whole story about himself, but
only few sentences could be understood.
Miss Holloway asked the little fellow
II he had a sister, and he replied very
distinctly CORA Belle" Then he tried
to tell his name, but 1T could not be un-
derstOOd
The police are at work on the case and
some startling developments may be
looked for soon.

The bladder was created for one pur-
pose, namely, receptacle for the urine,
and as such it is not liable to any form Of
disease except by one of two ways. The
first way is from imperfect action of the
kidneys. The second way is from care
less local treatment of other diseases.
CHIEF CAUSE.
Unhealthy urine from unhealthy kid
neys is the chief cause of bladder troub-
les. So the womb, like the bladder, was
created t0r enc purpose, and if not doc
tOred too much is not liable to weakness
or disease, except in rare cases. 1t is
situated back of and very close to the
bladder, therefore any pam, disease or
Inconvenience manifested in the kidneys,
back, bladder or urinary passage Is often,
by mistake, attributed to female weak
ness or womb trouble of some sort. The
error is easily made and may be as east
lY avoided, To find out correctly set
your urine aside for twenty four hours;
a sediment or settling indicates kidney
or bladder trouble. The mild and extra
ordinary effect of DR.. Gilmer's Swamp
Root, the great kidney and bladder rem.
edy, is soon realized. If you need a

Timely Topics

A FEW NOVELTIES FOR
THE KITCHEN.

By the Australia we have
received some novelties in
Kitchen utensils WHICH will
be appreciated by all Homo
lulu housekeeperS on sight.
The CHAMPION ROASTER
is handy, convenient and cheap.
1t is a portable oven designed
to be placed on top of an or
binary cooking stove. 1t will
bake anything in the shape of
fish, flesh or fowl and for
cooking cake it is unequalled.
1t can be moved about while
the cooking is going on and
the heat regulated to a nicely.
They cost just an even $3.50.
STROUD'S SELF BASTING
PAN is another useful novelty.
1t consists of an enameled dish
or cooking pan which sets in
side another in which the hot
water is held. 1t can be used
inside an oven or on top of
the stove. Its price is $3.50
only.
TELESCOPE COFFEE POTS
we have advertised before and
their merits are known. They
are absolutely the best in use
and that is saying a good deal.
We have a fresh supply of
them on hand in several sizes.
We have also received by
this steamer a fresh invoice of
the BLUE FLAME OIL STOVES
in two sizes, either three or
four burners, which we are
selling now at $22 and $25
each.

Russian non commissioned Of
ticers are installed as sort OF
bodyguard in the new palace
whittier the king lately removed.
The Saturday Review writer goes
30 far as to say: mo doubt we're
it not for the fact that Russia's
military and naval forces in the
Pacific are at this moment inferior
! to Japan's, Corea would already
have been formally appropriated.
But Russia is playing the waiting
game, and she can afford to do 80.
The fate OF Corea will probably
be decided in her favsr by the
completion of the Siberian Rail-
way" Different commenters on
the situation attribute to Japan's
bungling the opportunities given
Russia for becoming mistress of
the situation. She is blamed
with trying to force reforms upon
the country in precipitate hurry.
As the London and China Ex-
press puts it: "Many of the re-
forms urged by japan were con
ceived in all good faith, but they
were head and shoulders clean
over the heads of king, officials,
and people. Decades were re-
quired with such country to &C.
complish what Japan would have
done in years if not months"
The result was an outbreak
of obstructive forces at Seoul, in
which the queen was brutally as
sassinated and the king driven to
refuge. Russia had thus opened
to her the door she sought for step
ping into control. The latest news
from Seoul indicates Fremont
tons of trouble. 1t is stated that
already great many wealthy re-
sidents are leaving the capital and
taking up their residences in the
interior. Besides this serious
matter of Corea, japan has no
small difficulty in holding
down the island of Formosa.
Her troops there are sue
cumbing to the climate, in
consequence of which it is
stated that force of natives is to
be raised by CONSUMPTION. In
view of these vital interests of
hers either standing in jeopardy |
or beset with difficulty close to her
doors, japan is not likely to
traverse thousands of miles Of
ocean to find fresh trouble.
