Zina piplock got a deer by a rather
peculiar streak of luck, yesterday. A
sportsman had been up into the woods
and came down as far as Bangor with
his deer, a fine buck. which was billed
for Augusta. When he arrived in BAN
gor he went on another kind of sport
ing trip and finally brought up in
Boston. 1t occurred to him that he ha d
a deer down here in Augusta. SO he
came down and tried to sell it. without
success. Zina was the last man he
aried. and after he had refused to buy.
the man asked if he would take it as a
gift. Tina would. and he is now the
owner of the wandering deer.

WOMAN AT CITY JAIL
 THOUGHT TO BE INSANE
Bettie Thaxton Found Maudling on the Streets-cannot Give an Account
 of Herself.

A white woman who gives her name as Bettie Thaxton, and also as Beckie Braxton is being held at the city Jail un- til some of her relatives can be found. She will be sent to the aims house this morning if no one claims her.
 The woman was picked up on the streets Friday night by the police, and was un- able to give an account of herself. She seemed to be out of her mind, and a charge of insanity was docketed against her in order to send her to jail and get her out of the weather.
 She has given the above names at the jail. When she tries to tell anything about herself her memory seems to leave her suddenly and she wanders off into a string of talk which means nothing.
 She stated to some of the women prison CTS at the jail that she got on the train at Waynesboro, and that she does not remember anything else. It is thought that she Is possibly related to some one who will send for her and take proper care of her She seems to be about 65 years old, and was suffering from the weather when arrested.
