The Sleepy SONG.

AS soon as the fire burns red and low.
And the house upstairs is still
She sings me queer little sleepy song,
OF sheep that go over the hill.
The good little sheep run quick and soft,
Their colors are gray and white:
They follow their leader nose to tall
For they must be home by night.
AND one slips over and one comes next
And one runs after behind.
The gray ones nose at the white ones
tail.
The top of the hill they find
And when they get to the top of the hill
They quietly slip away,
But one runs over and one comes next
Their colors are white and gray.
And over they go, and over they go,
And over the top of the hill,
The good little sheep run thick and fast.
And the house upstairs Is still.
And one slips over and one comes next,
The good little gray little sheep!
i watch how the fire burns red and low.
And she says that ! fall asleep.

Goes After Elliott.

Deputy Sheriff Williams left this after noon for Tampa, Fla, where he goes to this place Elliott is in the custody of officers at Tampa and it is alleged that he is a confederate of J. w. Castlelnan, who was arrested some weeks ago on a charge of embezzlement from the Sloss- Sheffield Steel and Iron Company The case against Castleman was mol pressed when he promised to join the army.
 It is said that Elliott has been travelling under several assumed names. He was arrested Tn Tampa upon information sent by Birmingham officers. Letters on the person of Castleman are said to have led the officials to think that Elliott was a confederate.
 The manner in which the embezzlement was conducted. 1t is alleged. was by com nissary checks. It is alleged that Cas- tleman gave the checks to q confederate in the offices who resold them at reduced rates.
 It is also said that Elliott is a Birming- ham boy about 23 years of age.
