And dream we ne'er shall see them more
But for thousand ears
Their fruit appears.

Into still air they seem to fleet;

NEGRO BABY BURNED TO DEATH.
With Older Brother It Was LET, in A House
Which Burned to the Ground.
Mother Saved Blder Child.


1t is a repetition of the same old
story; children left by their mother
in house with fire and the moth
er returning in time to see the house
destroyed by flames and one of the
children burned to crisp.
Texana Warner, colored, who
lives On Mr. D. B. Cooks place, be-
low Prosperity, in No. 10 Town
ship, LETT her two children in her
home on Tuesday morning and
went out to pick cotton in a field
near the house. Bennie, one of the
children, was about five years old
and the other was a baby of only
sixteen months. There was a fire
III the room i'll which the children
were. The room adjoining was
hlled with cotton and shucks.
Between 9 and 10 o'clock in the
morning the woman's attention was
attracted by the calls of the oldest
child, Bennie. He was standing in
the door Of t. e room which con-
tanned the cotton. The woman
looked up and, seeing the room on
a lire, ran to the house and at
tempted to save her children. She
managed to get Bennie out but
could not save the baby and it was
burned to death.
The child who was saved told
Coroner Lindsay that the baby
picked up a coal of fire and crawled
with it to the room in which the
cotton was stored, setting the cotton
and shucks On fife, and that he was
standing in the door calling to the
baby to come on and get out when
his mothers attention was at
tracted to him.
The house was burned to the
ground.
1he coroner was sent for on Tues
day afternoon and went to the scene
lie took the mothers TESTIMONY
and that of a woman who came to
try to render assistance. Coroner
Lindsay wrote a verdict of acci-
dental death.
Following is the mothers testi.

CARNEGIE'S GIFTS
THEY ALREADY AMOUNT TIC
 ONE HUNDRED MILLIONS.
Two-thirds of the Sum Has Been Given to Purposes in This
 Country.
Chicago Tribune.

Chicago Tribune.
 In his effort to avoid the ignominy of dying rich, Andrew Carnegie has given away nearly $100 .0O0,OO0 The amount of his known benefactions is $s0. .s12, 223. and 1t isn't at all unlikely that other dona- tions unrecorded would amount to the GOO necessary to bring the total up to the s100 900 GOO mark
 Considering the $100. 100000 which in round figures he has already given away, there are comparatively few people in Chi caGo who could afford to pay a teller at s day of eight hours to count this money in S5 bills and do them up in pack ages of $500 each. To pick up these billt as they might come into the tellers win dow, count them in orde~. place them and pin into packages of 100 would require the time of teller day after day for a full working year. At this he would be unable to lose a moment from his work, his wrappers would need to be at his fln- gers ends, and he could lose no time in dipping his pen into the ink from which he would. mark his Initials and the date of the wrapping up of the bills.
 Just to the extent that carefulness would need to be exercised to detect counter feits, or as worn and multilated bills would need to be separated and put aside for redemption, this work of counting $100, ,0000O0 would be prolonged.
 Would Reach to Manila.
 Reducing this enormous sum to dollar bills and laying them end to end they would make a ribbon reaching by way of Suez from Chicago to Manila. They might be laid in ribbons in the center of the tracks of every transcontinental rail way between New York and San Fran cisco and other Pacific ports. These same bills, pasted into a square. would carpet S35 acres of ground. 'or more than half of a Government section. the strip of ter ritory being one mile long and more than half mile wide.
 In silver dollars. stacking ten to the inch. these 100000. 900 coins would pile in single column I60 miles into the air. In cube formation, allowing for each coin at the base to touch rims with the oth- CTS, these coins would form a pile nearly fourteen feet square at the base and 10C feet high. Such a pile would be larger by far than most of the library build ings which Mir. Carnegie has provided for
