ARRESTED FOR MURDER
AFTER THIRTEEN YEARS.
GEORGE AUSTIN TAKEN TO ALABAMA
ON TIE CHARGE OF Ux0RCIOE.
Was Arrested by Sheriff Christie for Hen
ny County officials. His Brother May
Be the Guilty Man.

Deputy Sheriff Skipper OF Henry
county, Ala, was in Dawson Saturday
for the purpose of taking back TO
that state negro, George Austin. who
was arrested at Mr.. Wyatt Bridges in
the eastern part of the county by Sher-
iff Christie several days before.
1t is alleged that Austin killed his
wife in the year 1889, just thirteen
wears ago, and had managed to evade
capture until last week.
The negro declares positively that
his name is not George but Alfred
Austin, and that he is a broth
er of the man who is wanted
for the crime in Alabama, and
Deputy Skipper himself was not posi-
tive that he had the right man, though
he thought the evidence as to the ne
eros identity sufficiently strong to
warrant his being taken back to Henry
county.
The crime for which Austin was ar
rested is said to have been a very
heartless and brutal one, and if he is
the right man he will probably suffer
the extreme penalty of the law.
Austin has been "a farm hand IN THIS
county for a number of years and all
of MS employers give him good
name. :.
10 those superstiously inclined it
might be a significant fact that the
number of years which lapsed between
the commission of the crime ana the
arrest of the alleged perpetrator OF It
was thirteen wears.

BORE FOR OIL.
Christian County Believed to
Have a Great Field.
Syndicate OF Capitalists Will Or
ganize and Begin Opera
tions Near Macedonia.

The oil fever has struck Christian
county, and some rich developments
are looked for in the near future.
Some years ago surface indications
of oil fields were discovered in the
Macedonia district, about twenty
miles northwest of this city. Sam
pies of the oil have been sent to
three different chemists for analy-
sis, and all the reports are to the
effect that the oil is of the very finest
quality, better than the famous
Beaumont, Texas, oil. The specific
gravity of this oil is about 40 per
cent, and the Intoxicating quality is
over 90 per cent. There is little
sulphur, and no silica in this oil.
Years ago well was sunk four
hundred feet, when a vein of gas
was struck that blew the machinery
out of the we'll. Gas and oil flowed
for days. More recently a syndi-
cate has been formed to develop
these oil fields. A. p. Crockett, of
this city; T. r. Hillman, of Birm-
ingham, Ala; T. NJ. Steger, of Nash
vile, Tenn; William Lynch and J.
e. Hayes, of Dawson Springs, and
other capitalists are at the head of
the company, and have secured
control of 900 acres in Christian
and across in Caldwell and Hopkins
counties, The company will at once
be Incorporated, and wells will be
sunk as soon as possible.

LUCKY FIND.
A Caldwell County Farmer Boy
PlOws up Pile of Money.

PRINCETON, KY, July 3--While
blowing in an old field which has
been in cultivation for more
than fifty years the eleven-year-old
son of John Crews unearthed a pile
of money amounting to about S400.
Some of the coins are Spanish and
date back to the year 1871.
Most of them are, however, Ameri-
can half dollars, the newest dating
to 1845. The money was evidently
buried in an old shoe as a spring
from a shoe was found with it. It
is said that large tree had stood
where the find was made.
The boy was almost speechless
when he reached home, so great
was his excitement.

FEEDING THE BABY.
All Milk Given to Little Cnlldre,
Should BE sterili.ed, and Sea-
soned Just q. Little Bit,

There has been a great change for
the better in the feeding of little
children in the last score: of years.
Far more children who, are deprived
of their mothers milk thrive on ar
tifcial feeding than formerly. This
is chiefly due to the process of steriii-
zation. All milk Ted to infants or
little children who live largely on
mnksshould ebe sterilized. This should
be done to destroy impurities which
the milk may receive from contact
with the mir and from vessels which
hold it, as well as to destroy germs
Of typhoid fever, tuberculosis or
other diseases which may be received
from the cow. The Importance Of
sterilization, therefore, cannot he in
sisted upon too, strongly. Apparatus
is sold for this purpose, SO that it
may be easily accomplished in any
kitchen with little trouble. Formerly
the milk Of one cow was insisted
upon. Some authorities object to this,
preferring a child should be fed from
q mixture of the. milk of different
cows.
There is more salt and sugar in hui
man milk than in cows milk. A very
little loaf sugar and little salt
should be added to milk given to an
infant. "A safe rule for feeding little
infants is to boil teaspoonftll Of
powdered barley and a little salt in .
gill of water for IS minutes. Strain
the mixture through fine strainer
which is kept for the purpose and
sterilized every time it is used. Add
to this mixture as much cows milk
and little sugar. This preparation
can, be taken from a bottle. Some
times oatmeal must be substituted
for barley. Use oatmeal in place of
barley if the child's bowels are not as
open as; they should be: For very
young child physicians generally rec
ommend cows milk, weakened only
with water. If it sours on the stom-
ach, as it may, make a very thin,
transparent mucllage of the best gum
arabic and milk, sweetened and fla
vored with a little salt, and give the
child little. It is simple, harmless
medicine.-N. Y. Weekly.
