A Stranger Killed at Xakenda.
A FRIEND.

A stranger struck Wakenda,
Carroll county, Sunday morning,
but from whence he came or
whittier he was going no one
knew. He had soap on
the brain and begged a piece
from several different houses.
At one place he got into row
and was becoming so violent that
Wn. Calvert, the town marshal,
was sent for to arrest him.
When the officer arrived the
fellow became still more pug.
nacious and threatened to do
the marshal great bodily harm.
Not being prepared for such an
affray the officer went home to
arm himself and was followed by
the stranger, who, when he
found he could not get in at the
door, began to throw rocks and
other missiles through the
windows, taking deliberate aim
as he threw at different mem.
bers of the family. including the
baby.
Mrs. Calvert loaded aer hus-
bands shotgun while he held the
door. Seeing that the lives of
himself and family were in
jeopardy Mr.. Calvert opened
fire on the man and shot him
four times, finally killing him.
The first two shots seemed to
have had no effect and the
soap crank" continued his
fusilade until the third shot was
sent after him.
He was neatly dressed, but
there was nothing on his person
by which he could be identified,
and the only articles ne had in
his pockets were the pieces of
soap he had begged about town.
Marshal Calvert was exonerat-
ed from any blame by the
coroner's jury, but will stand
trial notwithstanding.
The man killed is thought to
have been an escape from some
hospital for the insane. His re-
mains were taken to Carrollton
for interment.

and Mrs. Casper Smith of Rock
ford. The three youngest,
Joseph, Mary and Rucker, are
still at home and are unmarried.
Here is an instance in which al
most an entire family have near
ly reached maturity without a
death in the family, and the
mother the first to be taken out
of nine children and 16 grand
children. Mrs. Hayward united
with the M. E. church, South, in
August, 1858. She was a patient
sufferer from a complication Of
diseases for some time, but she
bore her afflicti0n almost with
out a murmur. She was kind
and indulgent mother, and her
children showed their apprecia-
ton Of mothers love toward
them by their constant watch
fainess and care during her
months Of suffering. Although
an invalid for some time Mrs.
Hayward was confined to her
oed only two or three days before
her death and her demise really
came unexpectedly. She was
model wife and her husband has
indeed lost devoted companion.
The bereaved family have the
sympathy of the entire COM
munity in this sad hour. Funer.
al services were conducted at
Asbury chapel Saturday by Rev.
Robt. McIlvoy of Keytesville
and imterment took place in
Asbury cemetery. May the
Lord comfort the hearts of this
bereayed family is the earnest
prayer of

Burglars at Salisbury.

Burglnrs visited Salisbury Sat-
urday night, and first made an
unsuccessful attempt to enter the
residence of ex- Mayor a. En-
merich. They next went to Rus
sell Horizons where they took a
water bucket ARD filled it with
eatables such as cake, hopey,
oatmeal, sugar, bananas, oran-
ges, milk. etc. Three silver
knives were also taken, and a 90
dollar bill was stolen from Mr..
Horizons coat pocket. None Of
the family was disturbed by the
intruders, and nothing was known
Of their visit until the next morn
ing. The local al tlo1ities were
notified, and City Marshal Steve
Crawford found the water buck
ct. some honey, sugar and cake
and a stranger, whc gave his
name as Frank Streiff. and who
said he was g coal-mlner and
hailed from Huntsville, near
Peter Wits. 3 1-2 miles south
west Of Salisbury. He was suo-
jected to g c.13e catechism and
admitted his guilt Of the burglary
and gave the names of two other
men, John Frazier and Wn.
Brocknan, who are also ccal.
miners a. Huntsville. as his ac-
com pl;ces. All three Of the par
ties were arrested. the two latter
at Huntsville, as they. according
to S:reiff's story, had climbed on
2 freight train as it passed Mr..
Wits and returned home. There
is some doubt. however. concern
ing the truth of S5reif' j story,
duplicating Frazier and Brock
man. and Streiff is believed to be
the real thief.
