When Peggy Pokes the Fire.

When Peggy pokes the kitchen fire
She makes a picture fair;
/ linger till l miss my car
To see her working there.
She takes the poker half way up,
Perhaps a little higher,
Falls on her knees before the range
And starts to poke the fire.
Her slender arms are fair to see,
Barred to her elbows white;
Her graceful movements she jabs
Just fill me with delight,
Left handed? Oh, but what of that?
I never could quite tire
OF seeing Peggy on her knees
While poking at the fire.
What tho the coal comes tumbling down
And one side all goes out?
She says a man can't poke fire
She knows what she's about.
And so she pokeS and jabs away,
While l can but admire
The warlike picture she presents
While poking at the fire.
1 often wish to move away
Upon a better street.
Where Peggy could attain the set
She always yearned to meet
But one thing ever holds me back
From promenading higher;
Poor Peg would find the gas ranges there
and couldn't poke the fire.

CLOTHING is TORN FROM BODY
AND HEAD is TERRIBLY
BRUISED.
TWO NEGROES ARE SUSPECTED
SCREAMS HEARD NEAR SCENE
OF CRIME EXCITEMENT
RUNS HIGH.

Little Falls, Mimi, April IS. - One
of the worst crimes in the history OF
Little Falls was discovered yesterday
morning when searchers found the
stripped and bruised body of Annie
Kintop in the woods half mile from
Darling, town six miles from this
city.
The girl, who expected to go to the
northern pert of the state to take up
a homestead, had been in this city to
purchase supplies and left here Mon
day evening on freight train for
Darling, from which station she was
accustomed to walk to her home,
which is about two miles from the sta
ton. She left the train at Darling,
and, after waiting at store for some
of her relatives, remarked that it was
late and they probably would not
come. She left the store and this was
the last seen of her until yesterday
morning, when her lifeless body was
found.
Brother Finds Body.
Miss Kintop often spent week or
two with her married sister, Mrs. f.
Coeman, in Little Falls, and her par
ents thought she would remain at her
sisters home. Saturday morning Mr.
and Mrs. Kintop, her parents, came to
this city, and when they learned that
she had left on Monday, her brother,
Phil Kintop, was sent to search the
road He could find nothing and re-
turned. leaving again Sunday morning
in company with his brother-in-law,
| Frank Coeman, and together they dis
covered the remains.
The coroner and the sheriff were no.
tilted and Immediately drove to the
scene and investigated. The clothing
was torn from the body and the head
was badly bruised. A handkerchief
was tightly knotted about her neck.
and all appearances point to terrible
death struggle.
Farmer Hears Screams.
Charles Nelson, a farmer living near
the scene of the supposed mulder,
heard screams in the direction OF the
Swedish church. which stands just
across the road from the pace where
the body was found. 1t is believed
that the murderers washed up IN the
church after committing the crime
and remained there for scme time, as
a light was seen in the chunh ON
Tuesday evening.
Two negroes who were last seen IN
that vicinity late Tuesday afternoon,
are sought by the authDritles Inc
girls pocketbook was empty and a
couple of parcels were found in dltch
near the railroad track bit her Walch
was found on the body.
> Two Men Suspected.
The belief that there WIRE two men
is supported by the fact that ne girl
was dragged or carried stme distance
from the track through thlck CROWN
: Of underbrush, and also becau!e she
5 was a very strong girl and ~nghed
/, about 100 pounds.
Excitement runs high in LittlelFalls
