A LOST BABY,
More Than a Hundred People
Join in the Search.
Was E0nnd About Midnight. Sleep
in the Woods A Mile
Away From Home.

The people, of Barrett's Ferry, a
little village near Narrows, were
caused a good deal of anxiety and
not little excitement last Saturday
night over the disappearance from
its home of the two-year-old child of
Mr.. and Mrs. Roy Coppage. Mrs.
Coppage had gone to the pasture
to milk the cows, leaving the little
one playing in the yard. and when
she returned no trace of the baby
could be found. When repeated calls
brought no response and the immedi-
ate premises had been searched
without result, the neighbors were
asked to join in the search. AS the
hours of the night wore along the
searching party grew in number un-
til hundred people were securing
the country for the lost child.
About midnight a farmers boy
joined the party who said that early
in the night he had heard a child
crying in the woods near Rough riv-
or. As the point indicated was APP
preached the frantic parents were
relieved by the familiar bark of lit
tie dog that had disappeared with
the child and rushing to the bank of
the river the overjoyed mother
found her little baby calmly sleep
ing. The dog gave the greatest
evidence dog could give of its own
joy over the finding of its little
charge.
1t seems that Mrs. Coppage had
changed the milking place and the
child having gone to the former
milking place, and not finding its
mother there. wandered about in an
i'll directed search for her until worn
out it had gone to sleep
The child was nearly mile from
home when found.

was serving in the Federal army
more than forty years ago.
After funeral services conducted
by Preston Morton Post G.. A. R.,

miles east of Hartford Saturday

Mr.. Leisure was member Of 26th.
Kentucky infanty during the war
of the rebellion and was in the great
battle of Shiloh on April 9th and 7th,
1862. where he was seriously wound
ed and left on the battlefield for
dead for three days.
He partly recovered from his in
juries but no one even believed that
he would have lived more than few
years and it was old wounds that
finally caused his death.

any person failing to comply with
this order and all persons who will
fully refuse to obey it will be prose
cuted.
Yellow fever is raging in many
States in the South. and some Of the
cities of this State, as well as in
other States, have quarantined
against all infected districts. The
Federal government has been re-
quested to aid in the struggle to
stamp il out and has assumed charge
of this effort. Mosquitoes convey
yellow fever and malaria and flies
carry typhoid fever as well as many
other domestic pestilencies. 1t is
important that our people adopt
these suggestions. BY needing them
and obeying this order much need
less sickness can be avoided and our
death rate materially diminished.

HIRAM POWERS TRIAL.
The Famous Murder Case Began
Here Wednesday
Morning.

The trial of Hiram c. Powers
charged with the murder of Fitzhugh
RenfroW the 3lst day of last March
was began at 9o'clock Wednesday
morning and will be completed to-
day. The case was stated for the
Commonwealth by Commemorative
Attorney b. d. Ringo in speech of
about three quarters of an hour in
lengthy
The evidence for the Common
wealth was practically all in by noon
yesterday DIR. jill. Maxwell and
William Park were the eye witnesses
who were Immediately near where
the killing was done, and they both
gave extremely damaging evidence
against the defendant telling practi-
cally the same story about the cir
cumstances of the killing. Several
other witnesses gave important evil
dence for the prosecution.
The statement of the case for the
defendant was reserved until the in
PRODUCTION of evidence for the prose-
cution had been completed. Then
Judge Glenn in lengthy speech
gave the facts on which the defend
ant would base his defense. Self
defense and insanity were the two
lines of defense set fourth by him.
Powers took the stand in his own
behalf and testified at length in as
bright and intelligent way as any
witness. Other witnesses testified
concerning some few minor matters
of defense but the bulk of evidence
for the defendant consits of expert
evidence to show the possibility of
mentally unbalanced man being
able to conduct business affairs as
Powers has always done.

Only a Mask.

Many are not being benefited by
the summer vacation as they should
be. Now notwithstanding much
outdoor life, they are little if any
stronger than they were. The tan
on their faces is darker and makes
them look healthier, but it is only a
mask. They are still nervous, easily
tried, upset by trifies. and they do
not eat nor sleep well. What they
need is what tones the nerves. per-
fects digestion, creates appetite, and
makes sleep refreshing, and that is
Hoods Sarsaparilla. pupils and
teachers generally will find the chief
purpose of the vacation best subserv-
ed by this great medicine which, as
we know, builds up the whole sys.

RUSSIAN MULBERRIES DIE.
Placed Close to Japanese Shrubs,
Two Wither and the Third is
Slowly Dying.

Col. G. M. Barnett, collector of
customs at the port of Louisville.
tells strange story7of three Russian
mulberry trees and two Japanese
Towering trees which stand in
row on one side of the driveway
leading up to his residence here in
Hartford.
The trees were planted nearly two
years ago. and until the outbreak of
the Russo-Japanese war all of them
had fiourished and grown strong.
When war was declared in the Far
East, the Russian mulberry next to
the Japanese trees began to droop.
Its leaves lost their luster, and some
of them on the lower limbs grew
pale around the edges. When Port
Arthur fell, the tree passed into
sudden and irrevocable decline. and
within two weeks after this historic
event. it was quite dead.
The Japanese shrub next to it on
the contrary, waxed stronger and
put forth new shoots.
A little later the second Russian
mulberry tree began to wither.
During the bitter land compaign it
stood sickly and yellow. and when
Mukden fell, it too shed its untimely
leaves and died.
Mr.. Barnett says that the third
mulberry is now beginning to show
the effects of the silent and myster-
ious influence that slew its two COM
panions. He has obtained the servi-
ces of a scientist, we'll versed in for
estry, who will make an investigation
of the remarkable phenomenon.
When some of Mr.. Barnett's
friends called his attention to that
section of the Federal statutes which
forbids government employee ex-
pressing an opinion on conflict be-
tween foreign powers. he said:
81 can't help what nature is doing
in my yard. The fact remains that
the Russian mulberries are now
dead and that the Japanese trees are
more robust than ever"
