LIMIT OF A DEER's LIFE
Romance has played a prominent
part with regard to the longevity
OF deer. What says the Highland
adage7 Thrice the age ofa dog is
that of a horse. Thrice the age
ol horse is that oi man. Thrice
the age of man is that OF a deer.
Thrice the age OF a deer is that Of
an eagle. Thrice the age Of an
eagle is that of an oak tree" This
is to assign the deer a period of
more than 200 years, and the esti-
mate is supported bY many highly
circumstantial stories. Thus, Capt.
Mcdonald, Tulloch, who died in
1875, aged SO years, is said to have
known the white hind OF Loeb Treig
for so years. his father tor a like
period before him, and his grand
father before him for sixty years.
So, in 1896, Macdonald OF Glen
garry is reported to have killed
stag which bore a mark on the left
ear identical with that made on all
the calves he could catch by Evan
Mac Ian-Og, who had been dead
Iso years. Analogous stories, it
may be noted, are told in countries
on the continent Of Europe, where
deer are to be found in any num-
Der. But alas! the general opinion
among experts would seem to be
that thirty years or thereabouts is
the limit OF deer's life

OH Miser and Family Killed.

CUMBERLAND, Md, September 27.--
The residence of Absalom Kostor, a
miscrly farmer, aged so, living on tho
West Virginia sido of tho river, near
Paw-Paw, was discovered on fire at ono
o'clock last Friday morning. Noighbors
hurried to tho scene, and were Mortified
to find Kcster and Albert Gross, his
hired man, lifclcss in the yard. The
houscl1ccpcr, Anna Domain, was also
murdered, but her body was consumed
in the flames. The object of the crime
evidently was robbery. Kestor was
known to keep largo sum of money
about the house, but fow weeks ago
was persuaded to put most of his money
III bank horo. The robbers secured
about 5000, it is thought. After beating
the two with blunt instrument, as they
supposed, to death, the robbers set tho
building on fire to cover up their crime,
but the men had life enough left to crawl
out into tho yard. Officers claim to
have clue, which thoy arc working on.

A Horrible Crime.

there was some doubt as to the intention
Of the negro in getting into tho wagon

therefore satisfied he would get his de-

Southern Cotton Mills to Shut Down.

PHILADELPHIA, PA, September 81
About 25 representatives of the South.
crn Spinners' Association from Nortl,
and South Carolina wore in the city last
week. Tho delegation Is hoaded by
President j. III. McAden end Secretary
G. b. Hiss, of Charlotte, N. G. The
visitors came to SEQ tho National Export
Association. While horo thoy discussed
tho question of temporarily shutting
down largo number of mills in the
South. This is on account of tho antioi.
pated increase of cost of cotton. The
present prico of material, such as the
mills in tho Association uso, is Ct cents
per pound. 1t is expected that in sixty
days tho price will bo raised to u cents
Secretary Hiss said that tho present
prices arc entirely too low, and, unless
an advance is mado, it will bo impossi.
bio to fill orders at the anticipated rise
in tho prico of tho raw material. AS q
matter Of fact, he thought it would be
better to shut down than run tho mills
at loss. Should thoro DO q general
shut down it might affect ono hundred
and fifty mills in tho South.

More Dlspensary Trouble.

Last Friday Chairman Miles, of the
State Board of Control, issued an order
suspending d. A. G. Outz, the book
keeper Of the State Liquor Commits
sioner. Mr.. Miles says ho susp vnded
Outz until tho Board meets in October
because he had sold contraband liquor
since tho last meeting of tho board, in
violation of tho positive instructions
givon at that time. Mr.. Outz claims
that Commissioner Douthit told him it
was all right. Chairman Miles said had
he known Mr.. Douthit was selling con-
trary to tho order of tho board ho would
havo suspended him also. He decided
to refer both cases to tho board at its
noxt meeting. Mr.. Miles states that tho
receipts from these sales wore turned
over to tho proper authorities, there
fore it is presumed, as all tho money is
accounted for, nothing more than an in
fraction of tho rules will be charged
against Douthit and Outz.
