CHOOSING A WIFE

An old Virginia gentleman who
said he knew the way to pick wife
was willing to recommend it to young
men. His advice is: See how she
looks i'm the morning! The old Vif-
ginia gentleman, when getting mar
ried himself, sent his valet across the
country to take a look at two sisters
in the early morning. One looked
well and one didn't. One found
husband. One didn't. So ladies, be-
ware! these facts are important if
true. And true they are as sure as
you are women. Men hate woman
who looks frowsy in the morning, and
love golden grain belt beers, which
are pleasant all the time, advertise
ment. Order of w. B. Schreiner, Sank
Centre.

sHREWD GYPSY WOMAN
AND SKILLFUL OFFICER
Truck Farmers Pocket Picked This
Morning and Money Recovered
by Sheriff crlmmlns.

A robbery which turned out luckily
for the robbed individual and was
not very disastrous to the robber, hap
pened on Main street at an early hour
this morning. A truck farmer who
lives a short distance from the city,
was driving in with his products for
sale and delivery. 1t seems that
there was a band of Gypsies camping
in the outskirts of the city and as
the truck man was driving leisurely
down Main street two women, evil
IDENTITY from the Gypsy camp, climbed
into his wagon and one Of them CON-
menced feeling about him. The farm
er seemed to have taken the familiar
ity as joke and drove on his way.
In short time the women left and
the farmer drove on down town. He
had not been separated from the
women very long before he discover
ed that he had been also separated
from the sum of seven dollars, as he
claimed
Sheriff Crimmins was seen on his
way to the Gypsy camp and the story
was told to him by the farmer who
promised soon to follow Sheriff Grim
Minis to the camp to Identify the fair
purloiner of his hard earned cash
On reaching the camp Mr. Grim
Minis discovered strange actions on
the part Of one of the women of the
camp and was taking a general and
leisurely view of the surroundings,
when, after time, the farmer arriv-
ed and took a general look at the
women, but saw none whesa he recog-
nized as the alleged rolbber. The
sheriff asked the farmer If he had
looked at the small group somewhat
hidden by a wagon. The farmer had
not and Immediately started to view
the group and among them he recog-
nized the woman of strange action
who had first attracted the suspicion
of the sheriff as the guilty party. She
was approached and denied ever see
ing the accuser. But on being told
that she was under arrest and would
have to go with him for a preliminary
hearing on the charge, the woman
commenced to talk about leaving her
babies and soon produced them In
preparation for her proposed trip for
trial. They We're very small, the
older not much larger than an ordin-
airy baby. She hemoaned her trouble
with her denials of theft Some of
the men of the band appeared and
interceded for her, but to no avail,
the sheriff beinS determined and after
considerable parley the seven dol
lars was produced, and the farmer
declined to prosecute, the money was
returned to him and he went off re-

I've Young, Small coiored Boy. Was
Found Yesterday Afternoon
by tho Side OF the
Road.
GUILTY PARTY HIDES
Boy Was Badly Bruised Wien Run
Over But no Trace Of Party
Who Did 1t Ia
Found. @

I've Young, colored boy about IL
years of age, died as he was being
taken to doctors Office about 3:45
yesterday afternoon after he had been
run over by some unknown person
The boy was found sitting by the
side of Commercial Alley by George
Hinton, 1905 Franklin street, who was
hauling sand. Noticing the boy was
in pain Hinton went over to him anu
asked the trouble. The answer was
that he had been run over but he was
too weak to tell more. Hinton load
ed the boy in his wagon and took him
to DR.. Browns Office but the boy died
before he reached the doctor.
The boy was short distance from
the railroad track when found but
from the marks on his body 1t is be-
lieved that he was run over by a
wagon. He had been to the river fish,
ing and was returning home. There
was a clear mark and bruise across
the boys abdomen and also a mark
on his back which makes 1t appear
that a wagon ran over him. How tne
marks could be both on his abdomen
and back cannot be explained.
The matter was reported to the
coroner who is making an investiga.
ton with view of finding the guilty
party. No report of a reckless driver
was heard in the vicinity of the place
where the boy was found, but It seems
certain that the party must have
known that the hoy was run over and
gone cruelty on his way.
