SMALLPOX RAGING
In Hale County Health Officer Serious
 ly III.

Greensboro, Sept. 2.-(Special) )-Smallpox prevails to an alarming extent in the neigh borhood of Cedarville, and in portions of west and southwest Hale. Within the knowledge of your correspondent three ne- groes have lately died in the neighborhood of Cedarville, and Dr. McCollum, of that place is very sick with this disease. The disease has become epidemic and Dr. San ders, state health officer, has been notified within the last three or four days. It is to be hoped he will take steps at once to put a stop to the spread of the disease. Unless something is done right away, there is danger of the crops remaining ungathered in the fields and a general exodus of the negro population, which will result in the spread of the disease into other portions of the state. It was brought into this county soon after it appeared in Birming- ham and has gradually but steadily worked itself up to it's present proportions. At first very little notice was taken of 1t, as 1t was very mild, and confined entirely to the negroes, none of whom died, but lately 1t has assumed a serious aspect, and a number of deaths have occurred. There is a family of negroes in the corporate lim- its of Greensboro who have the smallpox, and unless something is done to isolate them, there is danger of its spread over the town

CHAPTER OF CASUALTIES.
Duke Brady and Negro Have Trouble
 in Perry.

Selma, September 2.-(Special.)- reached this city this morning of chap ter of casualties that happened on yester- day on the McIfwain place. about ten miles from here. and about three miles west of Gummerfield.
 MT. Duke Brady, we'll known planter and citizen, on Wednesday had a negro by the nane of Silas Molett arrested for burning his rails. At the trial held before Justice Peebles there was not sufficient proof to convict the negro and he was turned loose. Immediately after he got his liberty the negro began making threats against Mir. Brady. getleman, one of the number who brought the details of the oc- currence to the city, hearing Molett say That he would be willing to spend the rest
The age-herald., 1898-09-03


 of his days lp the coal mines to get even with MT. Brady.
 These threats came to MT. Bradys ears, and on yesterday he took his shot gun and went down to the negro's cabin to ask him what he intended doing. On seeing MT. Brady with his gun Molett cracked the d9or, and p9kipg tRs baTra of his guA ogt, then fired at the negro through the crack in the door, several of the shot taking ef- feet and inflicting painful but not serious wounds Moletts wife so it afterward transpired, fearing some trouble, had taken the caps off Moletts gun. which was an old-time muzzle loader. This, perhaps, saved Mir. Bradys life.
 Now comes the sequel to the tale. Mo lett, finding that he was shot, had his wife to hitch up their mule and went to Sum merfeld to receive attention from pr. Stewart. Before going the woman called to one of her children. boy about 10 years old, and giving him the caps, told him to put them on the gun. This he did and set the gun against a chair by the door.
 When the negro and his wife got back from Summerfied they found their 2-year- old baby laying on the floor dead and their little 5-year-old girl profusely bleeding from a gun shot wound in the arm. The girl had accidently knocked over the chair against which the gun was sitting, and falling, 1t was discharged, the load passing through her arm and strihe..g the baby who was playing on the floor, killing it in- stantly.
 Justice Peebles was sent for and held an inquest. the coroner's jury bringing in a verdict in accordance with the facts given above.
 Silas Molett did not bear the best reputa- ton. On Wednesday when Constable e Blandin was carrying him under arrest to Summerfield he picked up an axe and threatened to strike him and was only i'm duced to drop the weapon by the sight of the constable's pistol.
 Last night a negro came across the bridge over the river here and pulled out a five dollar bill to pay his toll The bridge keeper told him he didn't have the change and to step up the street and get 1t. The first person the negro met was Deputy Sheriff Seay, who changed the bill for him, but after the negro had got out of sight, happening to look at the bill he saw it was confederate bill He took out af- ter the negro and, catching him. lost no time in making him return the five honest silver dollars he had given him.

Dexter Gleason and Albert Shultz ran
across an old bear and three cubs on
Hagar mountain in Woodford when re-
turning from trouting trip. The cubs
climbed tree and Shultz went up anoth-
er tree for the purpose of keeping them
in the tree until Gleason could go home
and get rifle. The mother bruin made
such unmistakable calls and means that
the young ones came down and went OIL
with their parent. Meantime Shultz, not
wanting to give it up so, says he followed
them until the old bear turned on him
and, not having even a jack-knife with
him, he deemed it best to keep aloOf.
He met Gleason and another man on the
way, but they returned home without
their game. The trio started out the
next day for a genuine bear hunt, think
ing they could overtake them, as there
is yet snow in the woods, and the cubs
were about the size of small porcupne
but after going some distance and losing
the trail they gave up the search as a
bad job.

Bellows Falls has for some years had a
regular Chinese laundryman named
Charlie Wing, hard-wOrking, honest
good resident. He is seldom seen on the
streets and few would know there was
such a citizen except from seeing his
sign, and as his customers go in upon
business. 1t comes to light that he has a
contract for food at regular times of a
somewhat unique character. 1t is with
poultry dealer, one who rails esq Chickens
at all seasons of the year. The order is
for Just dozen eggs at stated times, the
provision being that they shall have
been set on by a hen just two weeks
not day more or day less, and for thi:
supply he pays the dealer just 60 cent;
per dozen. He explains with muct
gusto that the chicken at that age is jus
exactly right, the spin feathers no
large enough to stick between his teeth,
and a number of other important points
why just the two weeks age is right.
