NEGROES BURN A GIRL.
Apply Fire to Her Clothing and
Resist Prayer for Mercy. =

cambridge, Ga, Feb. 1S.-Advices have
just reached the sheriff of this county de-
scribing the attempt of three unknown ne
groes to burn to death the 16-year-old
daughter of James Alday in an obscure
district of Decatur on Monday.
Miss Alday went to spring some dis
lance from her fathers residence and
while on her return and half way through
the gloomy woods three negroes. whom
she had never seen before, sprang from
behind the brush and seized her roughly.
and, threatening to kill her if she called
for help, began to ply her with uestions.
Too frightened to resist, the young lady
informed the brutes that she was the
daughter of James Alday, a prominent
planter of that district.
On hearing this the men expressed their
intention of burning her to death, and
while two of them held her firmly the
other one struck matches and applied the
negroes were deaf to her prayers for
mercy. and only when they were fully
satisfied that the flames could not be
easily extinguished did they release her.
Miss Alday broke from the three men
and screa ming to her fathers house.
Before she had arrived at the door. how
ever. every particle of clothing had been
burned from her and her body was one
huge blister.
The report said that she would in all
probability have breathed her last by the
time the message reached cambridge.

passengers, under charge of the doctor
and the second officer, were shut up IN
the deck house under the bridge.
The captain ordered the boats out,
and three of the port boats were carried
away by heavy sea directly after they
were launched. An attempt was then
made to launch the starboard life boat,
and after working steadily from two
until nine in the morning it succeeded.
Those on board Immediately made
desperate rush. Fifty jumped into the
sea IN an endeavor to reach the boat
but only Is succeeded and two of these
were washed out. The boat was full of
water, and it was impossible to use the
oars After half an hour the steamer
Susu arrived and picked up the II in
the boat.
There were still about 40 people on
the wreck, but when the Susu returned
from Santa Cruz not a soul was to be
seen and the sea was washing COM

and officers did their best, but owing to
the mountainous seas. it was impossi-

to Purcell"
Improvements are constantly going
on at Wichita and all along the divi-
sion. This week the new water plant
was put in operation. The Wichita
water tank has been supplied with
water from the Wichita city water
works. Superintendent Dolan thought
that a better and cheaper service could
be had, and under his direction four
driven well points have been sunk just
east of the round house. The points
are four inches in diameter, and 25 feet
long, and while pumping from two
points all day the water has stood
steady at Is feet The water is good
and clear and free from extra sedi-
ment- This makes a saving in water
to the road of at least $40 a month, and
gives them better water and an indie
pendent system.
