WENT DOWN WITH THE MAINE.
Fugitive From Justice i'm Florida
Reported Killed.


Tallahassee Fla. April ga few years
ago Frank Andrews, young man in
wauEulla county, waylaid and shot man
named Nixon, near Newport and fed the
country.
About a year after the shooting Sheriff
Pearce learned that Andrews was near
Palmetto, .Manatee county He visited Pal
metto and 'ascertained that a stranger was
getting mail there in the name of ]. H.
Linton.
Sheriff Pearce hired a team and drove
out among the vegetable farmers, osten-
sibly to buy their tomato crops in the
field. Going from place to place, looking
at crops in the fields and packing houses,
he finally discovered Andrews, known. in
that section as Linton. ABdrews was Sc
cured. and sheriff and prisoner started for
Palmetto. Arriving there too late to take
the. night boat for Tampa, Andrews was
confined in the town lookup. During the
night the lookup was buped and Andrews
escaped.
While driving to Palmetto Andrews told
Sheriff Pearce that IL he had acted upon
his own Judgment he would have been out
OF the reach of sheriffs, and suggested
that the United States navy was the safest
place for fugitives. adding that If he had
another opportunity he would soon put
himself beyond the jurisdiction of Florida
sheriffs.
Mr. Pearce recently met the father of
young Andrews, who said that Frank had

BRUNswICTx's NAVAL RESERVES.
The Men want to serve Under Their
Present officers.


Brunswick, Ga, April 25.-The military
commands, as whole, do not relish the
idea of losing their identity by re-enlist-
ing. They prefer to fight together. Not
since the war rumors started has any
subject aroused 50 much interest The
impression prevails that under the call all
men who re-enlist will be subject to as
signment to duty with any company in
the regular army and chances win have to
be taken on getting officers they like. The
men think they should be allowed to fight
together and not be subject to transfer to
strange companies. The status of The
payal militia under the call is less under
stood than that of the landsmen. II seems
that at department Headquarters In At
lanta there is no certain knowledge as to
how the naval militia will be effected BY
the new arrangement.
An impression prevails in regard to the
Georgia reserves that If they re-enlist they
are liable to be punched together in squads
and assigned to various vessels. None of
the Brunswick boys now on companies
rolls know just exactly how they stand
and all are ready TO live up TO the terms
of their present enlistment If II Aevel-
ops that the various companies are TO be
split up and parcelled out amongst strange
people and under strange officers, while
their own officers are kept in the back
ground, 1t is probable a protest will be
made by some members.

FROM CAMP AL6ER.

Merton AsDavis, son of VIM. Davis
residing just across the river in Rem
vile county, is one of the volunteers
in Uncle Sans army, and is at Camp
Alger, Falls Church, situated about
nine milesssouthwest of Washington,
in old Virginia, where many battles
were fought during the civil war. In a
letter to The GAZETTE he states that
the camp is about II miles from the
battlefield of Bull Run, much noted
place in Virginia. In describing the
scenery he says:
Imagine, if you can, vast plain
dying away into little swells and
mounds. AS far as the eye can see are
countless columns of little white tents,
standing in military array, while the
distant hills are white with canvass
roofs. Through this immense field a
thousand sentries pace their lines at
regular intervals. The green hills and
plains are alive with columns of armed
soldiers, some charging with fixed
bayonets, some steadily forming
squares and repelling attacks, and
some doing rifle drill. Here and there
whole battalions swing along, while on
the crest of dozen hills, glittering
costumed regiments go through dress
parades. Add to this the stirring har
mony of dozen bands, the entice-
ment of twenty thousand clanking
warriors, the glory of dashing cavalry,
and you have Camp Alger. The Camp
covers l,4OO acres at present.
Nearly all the boys at present are in
good health, and are making a fine

MRS. HEWITT'S SAD DEATH.
From the Morgan Messenger.

From the Morgan Messenger.
One of the saddest things that has
occurred in this community for years
took place Sunday afternoon when
Mrs. VIM. Hewitt, for 30 years resi-
dent OF Eden township, was drowned
in the Minnesota river near her old
home.
Mrs.Hewitt has not been considered
right in her mind for several months
Her physical health has also been
very poor ever since the death of her
husband Z years ago.
She had been living with her son
Albert Hewitt, at her home in this vii.
lage until few weeks back, when she
went out to the farm to live with hel
daughter, Mrs. William Sherman, dur.
ing the summer.
Sunday afternoon Mrs. Hewitt left
the house. telling her daughter she
was going to look at the crops. She
seemed perfectly natural and rational
SO her action was thought nothing of
She went down across the bottom land
stopping occasionally and looking a
round her and back toward the house
From that time she was seen no more
alive.
Mrs. Sherman became anxious al
her mothers long absence, and 6
search being instituted Mrs. Hewitt'G
lifeless body was found in a shallow
place in the river lying face downward
at about 5 o'clock. 1t appears that she
had walked directly to the river at {
place where the stock went for water
and walking out into the river which
vac about knee deep at that place hac
fallen forward, either from fatigue o.
dependency, she had thrown herself
in with the intention of taking hel
own life.
