WHITE NAN BEATS HIS sTEPCHILD.
". E. Cookson Fined for Cruel Treatment Of
Child That Cannot Walk or Talk.

COLUMBIA, November e. Charged
with cruelty, mistreating his three
year-old stepchild, w. Edward Cook
son, of 62 Taylor street, faced Re-
corder Stanley this morning and was
sentenced to pay fine of $40, or to
serve thirty days on the chaingang.
Cookson was arrested yesterday by
Patrolman Barton and Detective
Broom. He had been informed that
he was going to be locked up, and
was preparing to leave the city when
the officers caught him.
The child is deformed and cannot
either walk or talk, and Cookson evi-
dently disliked it for this reason.
He beat the child numerically and
knocked several teeth from its
mouth. He admitted his guilt this
morning, and seemed sorry of his
deed, while the recorder seemed
sorry that he could not punish him
more than he did. The child has
been turned over to the Salvation
Army, and that organization will see
that it is carefully nurtured into use
full maturity.

A Widows Gratitude.

A woman living in the village OF
Milford, N. Y, who recently lost her
husband by death, sent the following
communication to an Otsego county
newspaper:
"Mr. Editor: 1 desire to thank
the friends and neighbors most
heartily, in this manner, for the
united aid and cooperation during
the illness and death of my late hus-
band, who escaped from me by the
hand of death on Friday last while at
breakfast. To the friends and all
who contributed so willingly toward
making the last moments and funeral
of my husband a success, l desire to
remember most kindly, hoping these
few words will find them enjoying
the same blessing. have also a good
mich cow and roam gelding horse,
eight years old, which / will sell
cheap. God moves in a mysterious
way His wonders to perform. He
plants his footsteps on the sea and
rides upon the Storm also black
and-white shote very low"

Did as He Was Told.

An amusing instance of literal
mindedness' was afforded not long
ago by a bell-boy in a hotel in Wash
ington.
One of the guests, congressman
from the west, had hurried to the
hotel clerks counter. He had just
ten minutes in which to pay his bill,
reach the railway station and board
his train.
When he hastily had transacted his
business with the clerk and had turn
ed to dash out of doors, it suddenly
occurred to him that he had forgot
ten something. Here, boy!" shout
ed he to diminutive negro on the
bench, run to room No. 18 just as
quick as you can and see whether |
have left a box on the bureau, But
hurry as I have only five minutes"
The boy rushed up the stairs. In
two or three minutes he returned
out of breath. eyes, sah," he pant
ed, "you left it, sah!'
