DOER OF DEED UNKNOWN
SUPPOSED To BE \ SoLl'lfi'
SEEN WITH \ CHILD.
WHO, The MAN CLAIMED, LOST HIS WAY
A More Fiendish Crime had Preceded the
Mprdsr--1hree Children Roasted Alive IN
Burning House in florida
by TramEs S.

Columhia, $. c.. NOV. ia special
ia tha State from Grcenville. ). c. says:
Weaver smith. a little white boy
haooar. was most foully murdered Thurs
day night in the heart Of town IN the
mutiIattl body was not found uhlli
nearly twenty-four hours later. y more
horrible crime than murder had pre-
ceGed the b~utchery of the boy and the
fend i~ncarnatc who did the deed * I'M
known. \ long cash in the boys stom-
ach caused his death and the entrails
were protruding from the body.
Weaver Smith was about eight years
old and was a notorious beggar around
town. having II skilfully worded story
of distress. When last seen by citizens
he was ut j. w. Riser's. sexton Of
Springwood Cemetery. Main street, 10y
whom he was given some food about I
o'clock "Wednesday night. From there
he went towards the First brigade camp
on the same street. He secured some
money and food there and visited the
Fourth New Jersey regiment last.
Late yesterday afternoon a negro
woman discovered the boy lying among
weeds on Elford street. which is a side
street. one block north of the Confed-
crate monument. The boy was lying
on the south sidewalk. which is rarely
used. When discovered he lay on his
face. and. on being turned over. the cut
in the stomach was revealed. The ply
sician found unmistakable evidence of
i more fiendish crime committed before
death. and the boy was doubtless killed
to prevent its discovery.
Two New York soldiers coming from
camp to town Thursday night heard
cries on Elford street and approaching
found another soldier. unknown to them.
with a boy. who. the soldier claimed. had
lost his way. The unknown soldiers
command is not known. and the New
York soldiers left him standing near the
child. 1t IS believed the boy was Weay-
or Smith and the soldier his assailant
and murderer. The crime has aroused
the greatest Indignation among citizens
and soldiers. and if the guilty man is
caught and proves to be Il soldier. his
comrades will endeavor to make short
work of him"

Dewey's Discipline.

81 was with Commodore Dewey
when he was the executive officer
of the Colorado" said a fnancier,
land ! remember one incident
which shows the manner of man he
is. We had a fine crew, some of
them as powerful men as | ever
saw. Four or five of them went
ashore one day and came back
fighting drunk.
"Three of them were men who
would Singly have been more than
a match in strength for John l..
Sullivan. The order was given to
put them in irons and it was found
impossible to carry out the order,
for the men were dangerous.
Dewey was notified of the situation.
He was writing a letter in his room
at the time.
"He went to the place where
these giants were and told them to
come out and submit to the irons.
They did not stir. Then Dewey
said quietly to an orderly: Bring
me my revolverS. And when he
had his pistols he again called upon
the men to come out, and they did
not move. Then he said: 81 am
going to count three, if you are not
out here with your hands held UP
on the third count you won't come
out of that place alive"
"He counted one, then he cooked
the revolverS, and he counted two.
We all expected to hear the report,
for we knew that Dewey meant
what he said. The men knew il
too. They stepped out just in time
to save their lives and they haC
been partially sobered by theil
fright and the moral effect Of
Dewey's glance.
Zone of them said afterwarc
that when he saw Dewey'S eyes he
knew that he would be a dead
jackey in a moment or he would
have to yield, and when the irons
were put upon him he was as sober
as he ever was in his life. Dewey
went back to his room and finished
the letter he was writing. -
