the lot where their old bank building
now stands. For years, in fact ever
since the ladies started it, they have
given free use of the upper floor of

The tearing down of the building
means the destruction of the library

building, otherwise it is up to the

IL was last Tuesday night that the
prisoners Smith and McClelland made
their escape from the county jail, and
dcspi te cards and kilograms sent all
over this part OF the country, no trace
whatever has been found of them. As
Smiths sentence was about up and
there were no more warrants out for
him, his departure would not be re-
GREETED save for the manner of his
going. McClelland, however, was to
appear in the district court to stand
trial, with a good show of going over
theIroad. AndIstill his disappearance
struck no popular chord which vibrat-
ed angrily that he should escape.
People believed that he was more
sinned against than SHINING, the man
who lodged the first complaint that
put him in jail, having Immediately
stolen his wife. 1t looked as if the
complaint was made to clear the way
for the elopement. Brooding on his
wrongs and his impotence to right
them easily accounts for his savage
attack on a fellow prisoner, and that
prisoner makes no effort to push his
prosecution. The capture of the men
in the course OF time is probable, and
they will he punished, as they should
be, for violating the law and breaking
Jail. The escape will probably result
in increased vigilance at the jail for
years to come and may be the direct
means of preventing a more important
escape in the future.

A Freak of Nature.

Waycross, Ga, March 16.-Mr r. r.
Cottingham, one of the residents of "Old
Nine" living near the Satilla MaHufac-
turing Company's plant. has a very pc
culiar freak of nature in the way of a
young calf. The animal is about month
or six weeks old now, and has attracted
considerable attention. 1t has "A white
back and breast and black head neck,
sides and legs. The strangest feature of
it is the white parts are covered with
straight hair, while the dark is nothing
but a heavy growth of wool, and 1t would
take an expert to detect it from genuine
sheep wool The neck and sides bear a
strong resemblance to a sheep, while the
legs are as much like the legs Of a sheep
as if they belonged to an old ram. To see
the curious animal lying down one would
be quite positive he was looking at Il
sheep Mr.. Cottingham prizes the freak
very highly, and If IL lives he will ex-
hibit It at the fairs this fall.

SHARPE TRIED FOR MURDER.
Mother-in-law Says He Deliberately
Killed His Wife.

Atlanta, March 16-Holding the breach
of his double arrelled shotgun under his
faded over-coat in the same position whioh
he claims to have been holding it when ii
was fired and killed his wife, few
months ago, Hiram Sharpe stood before
a jury at Decatur to-day and declared
that he was not guilty of murder but that
the shot which ended the life of Mrs
Clara Sharpe was accidental.
In direct contradiction to his statement,
the mother of the murdered woman, the
only eyewitness, testified that the shot
which killed her daughter was fired DELHI
erately by her husband after he had plac-
ID the breach of his gun to his shoulder.
Sharpe Is the man who shot and killed
his wife and badly wounded his wife's
mother on Wednesday morning, the sixth
of last December. The killing occurred
about five miles from Lithonia in a re-
mote section of the country. Sharpe be-
came angry with his wife because she re-
fused to return to his home. His fate is
now in the hands of twelve sleeping jurors.
