LOST IN THE WOODS.
NaIdOSta WOman's Terrible Night.
The Country side Excited.

Valdosta Ga, Aug. 4-Mrs. Tareton
knight who lives in the southern part Of
this county in what is known as the river
bend, had a thrilling experience Monday
night, and for about eight hours her hus-
band and all of the neighbors were
wrought up to a high pitch of excitement
Late in the evening, just before Mr.
Knight came in from the field, Mrs
knight picked up pair of his shoes and
pulling them on to keep from running her
own shoes in the mud of the fields, started
some distance and not seeing them she
walked on around a skirt of woods and
INTO the woods. When she started to re-
trace her steps and return 70 the house
she found herself completely LOST in the
woods.
Her husband came up from the field,
ana after waiting some time for her to Ie-
turn, he started out to hunt her. .ioing
through the yard he saw tracks of a
mans shoes, and the suspicion took hold
OF MIN that She had been murdered and
her body hid. He summoned his neigh
bors and ali began to search for the mi S.
ing woman. The tracks were followed as
far as they could be, but they were dnal-
ly lost. The party secured all Of the coun-
try around, and finally sent after the
blood hounds at McRee's camps, near
here.
About o'clock at night a man on the
Brooks county side of the river heard the
screams of a woman four or five miles
above the Knight home and as soon as he
could he came across the river to her
rescue. He found that the woman was
Mrs. Knight. She had wandered about
all night hunting her home, but in her
excitement and anxiety had been going
further and further away from it, She
was almost daft with fear and excitement
and had really forgotten that she was on
the LOwndes county side of the river. She
thought she was in Brooks county and
instead of going down the river to her
home, she had been going up the river
away from home all the time. She was
carried back and there was great rejoic-
ing among the searchers al her safe re-
turn. The mans tracks through the yard
and field were fully explained when it
was seen that Mrs. Knight had slipped on
a pair of her husbands old shoes to keep
from muddying her own.
Petty thieves are still bothering the po-
lice here no little. Last night Elder Love,
who lives on Savannah avenue, ran a
burglar away from his house, firing at him
one time. About midnight the police went
TO a house to arrest a notorious negro
named Allen Drags. The negro came to
the door, but seeing the policemen he ram
They shot him twice, but he kept going
He ran into Dukes bay and efforts have
been made all day to get him out, but
without avail.
Drags is one of the worst cases in the
city. He is wanted for theft. 1t is said
that Drags father carried him a Winches-
ter rife into the swamp this morning and
that he will defy arrest.

to be bad one Unhtchng the dogs
ne set the tOboggan on its side to the
wind. Then he scraped up the snow and
banked 1t around the tohoggan to hold it
as firm as possible. He pulled out his
blankets and some provisions and spread
them on the ice on the lee side of the to-
boggan Calling his dogs four in num-
Der he made them lie down and covered
them with a blanket The dogs knew
what was coming They had been out in
a blizzard before Then John wrapped
himself mp in blanket and lay himself
down beside them.
Here Beargrease and the dogs lay for
two whole days and part of another
buried under a mantle of snow that had
fallen upon them. All were on short ra-
tons. Very sparingly Beargrease dealt
out the raw salt pork he had to all hands
The dogs, although they We're probably
very hungry, never whimpered They
seemed to understand. When the storm
was over they were up and off again but
their troubles We're not over. The heavy
wind had broken the ice in many places,
and 1t was piled up from ten to thirty
feet high. In other places the snow had
drifted so that 1t was impossible for the
dogs to get through. This made it nee
essary. for them to go a great deal out Of
their Way

one with only a little dry corn meal to
eat, the last of his supplies-John began
TO lose his strength. His feet had been
frozen and he felt that his left hand and
nose soon would be. Drawing his blanket
around him he shouted once or twice TO
the dogs and lay himself down-he
thought 10 die.
The dogs, too had begun to lag. but
Johns shouts seemd TO put new courage
and energy into them. They started out
faster than ever, and bright and early the
next morning stopped in front of the little
grocery store at Grand Marais, where the
postofiice is.
John was lifted from the toboggan and
restorauves were administered, for the
poor fellow was nearly gone. Three or
four hours more in the cold biting wind
would have finished him. He pulled
through however. and three weeks later
started for Two Harbors and enjoyed
comparatively comfortable trip. Although
getting along In years John still evinces
desire 70 carry Uncle Sans mail. and
says he will report for duty the first Of
next November and take up his duties for
the winter.
