Pony and Rattlesnale.

A California farmer who has three
small children. owns pony which Is
their constant companion. They have
ridden him. rolled over him. fed him
and have come 10 consider him as one
of the family. when the children
went on an expedition and did not
want To ride, the pony went along as
II he had been pet dog. The San
Francisco Chronicle tells the follow.
Ing story OF the ponys presence OF
mind:
One day the three children went on
n nutting expedition, and while they
gathered the nuts the pony grazed
near by. Suddenly. almost beneath
the feet OF the nut gatherers. there
was an ominous whlr, and they saw
with horror n huge rattlesnake coiled
ready TO strike.
The children huddled together. too
much frightened TO move, but as the
deadly head went back there was n
quick trample OF hoofs. rush through
the bushes and the pony appeared.
With his four little sharp hoofs
brought together he shot up into the
air. landed squarely on the snakes
coll. and was Oft again before the
wicked head could strike.
The interruption had released the
frightened children from the charm.
and they ran short distance away.
and stopped 10 witness the contest.
The rattler was wounded. but full of
fight, and coiled again. and again the
pony landed on him and got away
safely. This time the snakes body
was nearly severed In two places, and
the snake was conquered. The pony
walked around II, and apparently sat
isGed, gave n cheerful whinny and re
turned TO his grazing.

Lingerie.

Negligees Of all kinds are an i'm
portant consideration during the warm
season. They should be dainty and
pretty enough not to look 'slouchy,"
yet be loose and cool enough TO be the
essence Of comfort. The kirfDnos of
pale-tinted lawn, lightweight figure,
or inexpensive wash or India silk, Or
namented with bands of white, is
great favorite, and possesses both the
mentioned qualities. More elaborate
ones, of course, are 10 the fore, one
very charming one being Of shell-pink
plisse silk liberty, with yoke from
which il hangs straight DOWN bands,
and edge of cream lace. The edge of
the lace formed the neck finish, as
the yoke was cut with the edge around
the neck and there was no collar.
Fine tucking on lngeries is being
used more than ever. Every piece of
handsome underwear is distinguished
by the quantity of fine tucks, almost
like handmade in it's composition.
Hemstitching is, also, much favored
and embroidery is much preferred %
lace as trimming. although lace is
not entirely out of vogue, fine val
enciennes and point de Paris and laces
of similar character still being used.
The moderate length hip, sloping to-
ward the back, is the most comfort
able as well as the newest shape in

There are growing rumors OF a

If LOSS IS TOTAL
MUST PAY IN FULL,
Important Decision is Rendered By
Supreme Court.
ADJUSTMENT OF FIRE LOSSES
Charter of Southern Mutual Cannot
Protectit From Complying With
Act of 1895 If Fire Loss is Total
the Payment Must Be In Full.

The Supreme Court has handed
down one of the most impor ant insur-
ance decisions, holdin g in the case of
Ward vs. the Southern Mutual Insur-
ance Company of Athens, that the de-
PENDANT company and all other mutual
Insurance companies are bound by the
act of Nov, %, 1895, which requires the
payment to the insured of full value ia
case of total loss, provided that the
payment shall be no larger than the
face of the policy.
In other words, the three quarters
value clause in the Southern Mutual
policies is of no force where the amount
of the policy is equal to the full value
of the property destroyed The COM
panY based it's case on the claim that
its charter did not permit it to pay
more than three-fourths value. and
that legislation to impair it's charter
rights was in violation of the United
States Constitution, which prohibits
any legislation that would impair con-
tracts.

OFFICERS ABANDON
KIDNAPPING CASE,
Have Failed to Find Any Trace Of
Frazer.
THAT REWARD STILL STANDING
Parents of Missing Boy Willing to
Pay $500 for His Return. All
Clues Worked on By Atlanta De-
tectives Result in Failure.

Atlanta, Jan. 26. The expected de
velopment in the Frazer kidnapping af'
fair did not take place. 1t was be
lieved in police circles that something
sensational would transpire, and that
the mystery, or at least one feature
would be cleared up.
The detectives say now that the de.
velopment is off, which probably
means that the clew they were on and
which promised so much has TUNED
out to be worthless.
One of the clews worked upon was
the story told by small white boy
living near the federal prison. The boy
stated that he saw white man and q
negro get off car the night G. Il.
Frazer delivered the $500 as ransom,
and that the white man held pistol in
hand.
1t developed that the white man was
Frazer himself, and the negro was
only an ordinary passenger who lived
in the country.
It is said that some of the money
Frazer gave up was marked, but il
this was so it amounted to nothing, as
the gold has never been heard from.
The officers have ceased to advance
theories, and 1t now looks as if they
had decided to abandon the case.
Tho 70 ok Ahok Abo rauord Of S50O Of
Tered by Captain N. II. Frazer has not
been withdrawn is matter of consider
able interest. In spite of the fact that
the family has already given up $500
for Bass Frazer, the distracted parents
still announce that the money origi-
nally offered is on deposit il the Mer-
chants and Farmers bank of Union
Springs, Ala.
