There was a tinge of peculiar
sadness surrounding the death Of
this young woman, who while in

known the touch of sorrows heavy

Edgefeld, killed three men. in
South Carolina and now wears a

A Child in Columbia Narrowly
Escapes Being Buried Alive.

A case of temporarily suspended
animation occurred in this city
last night, which illustrates the
fact, long urged by scientists, that
death should be determined un.
mistakably before burial takes
place. In this case nothing sc
horrible as a premature burial oc.
Cured, but there was probability
that it would, but which was for.
tunately avoided.
A family of white people, living
on Arsenal hill, went through an
unusual experience last might
One Of the children had been i'll
for two weeks. 1t gradually grew
worse until last night at 1890 its
pulse seemed to cease to beat
There were some other signs OF
apparent death, and the child was
pronounced dead and the body
was prepared for burial.
About all hour afterWard, while
the sorrowing family were sitting
around the supposed dead child, il
suddenly arose in the bed and ask.
ed for drink of water. The feel
ings of those present can probably
be better imagined than described
The parents were naturally carried
away with Joy over the return Of
the 'sdead" loved one to life. o.
course every possible attention
was given the child and it grew
stronger.

A SOUTHERN JOAN ARC.
"Douschka" Pickens, Who Sup
pressed a Negro Insurrection
by Her Bravery.

"Douschka' Pickens won for
herself the title of South Cardinals
Joan of Arc upon the occasion of
Edgefeld County being threatend
with negro uprising which setm-
ed likely to extend over the entire
state," says a writer in the septem-
ber Ladies' Home Journa!',
"This was in 1875, when political
feeling ran high. The town OF
Edgefeld was giver over to rioting
of all kinds, which no one seemed
able to control, and the homes and
even the lives of the Inhabitants
were threatened. At this juncture
one thousand five hundred red
shirts, of whom the negroes stood
in great awe, gathered from no one
knew whore, and led by 'Douschka;,'
herself dressed IN red, rode into
the village bringing terror with
thsm. The result was complete
intimidation of the negro element,
withourt. which. the opposing
political party was practically
helpless. The example set by
this pluchy child of eighteen was
followed in other parts of the State
with equal SUCCESS"
