YOUTHFUL CRIMINALS.
Two Colored Children in Pitt County
Killed a Child by Crushing Its
Skull
(Greenville Reflector. J

Mr. f. w. Pace spent day over IN
Green county this week, and on his
return tells us of horrible crime
committed by some children on the
plantation of Mr.. II. f. Barrow.
Among the colored tenants living on
his place were billiard Anderson and
Susan Harper. Anderson had a child
three years old and the woman had
two children aged seven and eight.
Upon going out to their work they
left the children together. During the
absence of the parents the Harper
children took sticks and beat the An
derson child to death, crushing its
skull with their blows. Those who
committed such an awful deed are too
young to be dealt with by the law.

A NOBLE HOBO.
An Austrian Count Who IL Writing q
History of Human Life-Lives

Rocco Dianovich, count of royal
Austrian blood, according to his story,
who is known in every country of the
habitable globe as Tile Noble Hobo
Is in Pittsburgh on the last trip about
the world which has consumed 35 years.
He says he is gathering facts for a
history of human life, and goes about
on foot to better obtain the data he re-
quires. He says he will publish his
book in New York, and return to Aus
tria. where his mother and brother still
live. Count Dianovich will remain in
Pittsburgh three weeks visiting edu-
cational institutions, says the News of
that city.
The noble hobo" always walks,
though that ends his resemblance to
the genus hobo" He lives al the best
hotels and always has plenty of money.
He began his wanderings in search of
the facts Of ordinary life in 1863, and in
that time has been over the whole globe
several times. During the ten years
war in Cuba he served an enlistment
in the United States navy, serving on
the Congress, under Lieut.. William T.
Sampson, now rear admiral, shortly
after the Virginius affair. He will
visit Cuba shortly to secure the facts
of existing conditions there and will

had been issued, however, the hostess
discovered that this card failed to in
