what she was doing. All night long
the searching party patrolled the
fields and slews. When just before
daylight they. all came in and laid
down for q little rest till daylight
when they again took up the search
until six when most of the men came
to town and sent out fresh ones in
their place. No one can describe
the agony of the parents as time
wore on and no tideing came from
the little one. About 7:30 Gus
Anderon and his brother discovered
the little one, two and one half miles
east of her home in a patch Of weeds,
she was wrapped up in one of the
mems coats and brought home.
She seemed dazed ssand her face
was raw and swollen from mosquito
bites and the grass, she was given
a hot water bath and put in dry
clothes and at present she is not as
bad as would be expected.

near Main street because whenever
lam in the interesting part of a game
or story and my mother calls for me
to go up town .(mothers never call
for boys at any other time,) I go
without protest, as I only have to
walk a block up town and block

enjoy my story. I am satisfied with
the location of my home and hope
it will not be changed as long as I

EGGED AT LISMORE.

Peter Meyer, accused of .criminal
intimacy with his own daughter, a
girl Of sixteen was rottenegged by
the enraged citizens of Lismore last
Monday.
Meyer, who lives about seven miles
north of Lismore, drove to that place
Monday and got drunk. While in
that condition he openly boasted
that he was guilty of the crime with
which he is charged,
His conduct so incensed those
who heard him that they procured
big supply OF egg, good, bad .and
Indifferent, and proceeded to pelt the
lecherous wretch until he was so
bedraggled his own dog diden t
know him.
Some of the mob wanted to tar
and feather him, but unfortunately
he was not subjected to that in
dignity.
If Meyer is guilty Of the crime
of which he is accused, it seems
strange that the authorizes OF Murry
county have done nothing to bring
him to justice. His neighbors have
threatened to do him violent and
unless steps are taken to punish
him legally, it would not be sur
prising if he should be roughly
handled by the people Of that com
munity. y.-Democra Adiarn.

A sixth Grade.

Four rooms in DR.. T. G. Newell's
residence were badly scorched by
burning gasoline a little after seven
o'clock Wedneday morning. The
ringing of the fire bell brought out
the fire department. in time to ex-
tinguish the flames before any great
damage was done to the house, al
though some of the contents suffer-
cred severly.
T. g. Newell, jr., the doctors
eldest son, had started fire in the
gasoline stove, and the burners had
just become hot when be noticed
that the gaoline tank was empty.
He closed the feed cocks and pro-
ceeded to fill the tank from a large
can. Accidently some of the gaso-
line was spilled upon the hot burner,
and ignited. In second the can
was ablaze. The young man tried
to throw 1t out through the WINDOW
but it struck the sash and fell back
into the room, scattering the burn
ing gasoline in all direction. Mrs.
Newell tried to smother the flames
with a blanket and was severaly
burned on the face and neck BY
this time the rooms were filled with
flame, shutting off the escape of the
children upstair. Raymond Newell,
aged 12 years, let his little brother )
and sister down from the window
and jumped down himself. Mean
while, the fire department had
arrived and soon had the flame
under control.

DAYTONS MINNEAPOLIS EN-
TERPRISE.

The formal opening of the new
store in Mr.. Dayton's new building
in Minneapolis took place Tuesday
and the press speaks lin ..glowing
terms of the grandure displayed on
the occasion. The Minneapolis
journal of Wednesday contains the
following regarding Mr.. Dayton and
his son Draper who are interested
in the business as we'll as the build
ing.
, George d. Dayton, president Of
the corporation, is we'll known in
Minneapolis on account of his in
IDENTITY with big building operations
in the city. He lis also president
of the Minnesota Loan & Investment
company, organized by him nine
teen years ago. A specially notable
undertaking of this was the build
ing of tho structure known now as
the Pillsbury building of 1898. This
building has alwasy been a popular
.one, and it's Offices are for the most
part occupied by men in the medical
profession. The beautiful new build
ing at Nicollet and Seventh, the
greater part Of which is occupied
by the Goodfellow company, is the
result of Mr.. Dayton's enterprise.
Mr.. Daytons has risen by his
own efforts and attained a position
in. the community by a course that
should be an example to the youth
of his generation. He started out
a poor boy and has won his way by
untiring industry and a strict ad-
herence to the high ideals that he
created for himself. He has not
failed in any of his undertakings.
Personally he is a man of quiet dis
position, almost to unobtrusiveness.
He works quickly, but is accessible
and never too busy to give a hear
ing to the humblest.
Mr.. Dayton is a native of New
York state. He came from Geneva,
N. Y, about twenty years go, and
has made his home in Worthington,
Minn., up to the present time. He
lis now preparing to move to
Minneapolis, in scene of most OF
his activity.
D. Draper Dayton, the junior
member Of the firm graduated this
month from Princeton university,
''cum laude, ''and has already enter
ed with enthusiasm upon his career
as dry goods man. 1t is his desire

ROYAL BABES FIRST TOOTH.
At present it cannot be said that
the young king is so popular as he
might be. Many of his subjects are
inclined to look with suspicion on
the fact that he is not a true
Spaniard by birth but the son Of an
Austrian mother Slowly but surely,
however, he is winning that popular
ity which a king should have among
his subject. He has at various times
performed little acts which have
appealed to the people.
Perhaps one of the most note
worth;- of these acts, and one which
sh,wel the young king and his
mother in their true chararter to
the people, took place some time ago
in Madrid. The king, accompanied
by the queen regent, was being
driven to the station on his way to
San Sebastian, when the queen was
seen to smile and wave her hand to
a respectfully dressed woman in
the crowd. Her son also caught
sight of the woman, and, recognize
ing former nurse Of his, requested
that the carriage might be stopped
in order that he could speak to her.
This was done, and beckoning to
the woman, who came to the side
Of the carriage his majesty made a
few kind inquiries regarding her
health and welfare before proceed
ingon his way.
Needless to say, the little act of
graciousness was made much Of by
the spectators, although many of
them were not aware of the identity
of the nurse.
1t is to his nurse, by the way,
that Queen Christina owes a great
debt of gratitude. For it was she
who once rescued the king from
kidnappers when his majesty was
but few months old. 1t appears
that he was left lying in his cradle
for few minutes, and on returning,
the nurse was Mortified to find that
the child had been stolen. She
dashed out of the palace into the
street, and overtooka a couple of men
who were earring what looked like
a basket of clothes. Having
suspicion of the basket the nurse
pulled off the covering, and there
discovered the royal babein half
smothered state.
One of the proudest possessions of
this particular nurse is a gold ring
in which is set a small pearl tooth
surrounded with diamonds and in
scribed on the inside: my Tooth
to NV Nu1se-.Alfonso Kill" In
presenting the nurse with this in
teresting memento, Queen Christina
followed out peculiar little Spanish
custom of allowing the royal nurse
to have the first tooth which her
foster son loses, mounted in some
article of jewelry. London Mail.

THE STUDENTS
WERE TOO "SMART''
The ColIesc Board Decided and
Expelled 6l.

Jackson, Tenn, April 2S-At the
Southwestern Baptist University here
Dr.. &. NJ. Savage, the president, has
announced the dismissal of I'll of the
young men students.
About 10 days ago, Prof. Bray. one
of the teachers, and Steed King, the
fireman who runs the engine and boil
er's for heating the building and direc-
tories, had personal misunderstand-
ing. Prof. Bray notified the Executive
Board that unless Mr.. King apologized
or was dismissed, he would tender his
resignation.
The Executive Board asked DR.. Saw
age, the president, to intervene as a
peacemaker. Prof Bray grew impa-
tient and failed to appear to teach the
classes. These 81 students then sent
a petition to the board also demanding
that Mr.. King be made to apologize
or be dismissed, and gave the board a
severe arraignment for the way it had
treated the professors complaint.
The board, in its decision, says:
'"ro maintain the authority and in
tegrity of the institution and its man
agement, we deem il necessary to ex-
pei from It's privileges the signers of
this offensive document. But, ,believ-
ing that many of the signers have lent
their names to this document without
giving due consideration ia
tho serious reflection it casts
upon the management, we
have decided to grant a privilege
of reinstatement to such as may wish
it upon the conditions that they ask
some time during the day that their
names be withdrawn from said paper
and sign an obligation not to interfere
again with the quiet, good order aud
authority aud management of this in
sttution.'
