Gayarre, of 72 Magnolia street, Atlanta, interferod when her spouse was spanking their child, a 4? year-old boy, several days ago, the husband, it is alleged, took his wife's arm between his teeth and bit into tho flesh. The bruise left by this treatment was displayed in police court Tuesday, July 10, by Mrs. Gayarre ns supplementary evi dence against her husband, who was charged with being too attentive to a young lady of his acquaintance. Gayarre acknowledged biting his wife, but denied that his acquaint ance with Miss Josephine Cable, of 100 Davis street, had boon anything but brothor-like friendship. Judge Broyles sontonced Gayarro to five days in tho station house. The kidnapper of a child in Phila delphia was tried, convicted, sen tenced to twenty years in the peni tentiary and was on his way to prison within twenty-four hours after his arrest. That's tho way the laws ought to be enforced and jtiRtice moted out in South Carolina. Assaulted hy Her Negro Pet. Aiken, July ll.-Mr*. S. A. Chapiu, a white woman about sixty years old, who lives about five miles from Aiken, wns criminally assaulted on Sunday night by a negro named Ike Knight. Mrs. Chapin is a Northern woman, who has lived in the neighborhood of Aiken for a good many years. She has always been a good friend to the negroes, doiug much for thurn, and entertained a^ high opinion of the negro boy, Ike Knight, who was employed by ber to look after ber horses and do work around the house. Some time ago she built a room to her house and had the negro sleep there for her protection. Last Sunday night the negro waa ?W&y from home, but returned about 1 o'clock in the morning and knocked at the door, requesting Mrs. Chapin to let him in. She opened the door and let him in and told him where he could get something to eat. She then told the negro that after this he couldn't stay in the house, as she couldn't be getting up to let him in, and the negro then grabbed her and threw her to the floor, accomplishing bis purpose. She went out to a negro tenant house on her place, but c nt Ul not stay there and soon re turned to her house and louked her room door. The uegro caine to her door, apologizing for what he had done, saying hu knew that he would be killed. The negro left next morning and nothing is known of bis wheieabouts up to this time. News of tho crime did not become known in Aiken until Tuesday morn ing, whan one of Mrs. Cbipin's neighbors report? d the matter to the sheriff, who went out to the house and, after investigation, returned and is now endeavoring to locate the negro. The sheriff and a party went out Tuesday night to search for the negro in the neighborhood where the crime was committed, but after talking to Mrs. Chapin and the negroes in that, community they feel satisfied thai he has left this neigh borhood. Everything possible will be done by the officers of the law to appre hend Knight, but there is not much talk of lynohing here, as is generally the case. Mrs. Chapin is a woman of some means. She has a son, who is now a lieutenant in the English army. Will Interest Many. Every person abould know that good health ia imponible if tho kidneys aro deranged.

The common oattle tiok is a familiar sight to all our people, but very few outside of those engaged in the oat tle business realize the importaut part it plays in hindering the dovelopmeut of tho cattle industry of the State. Tho cattle tick carries tho " germ " that causes Texas fever, a disease very fatal to grown oattlo. Cattle that nie raised ou la d iufested with tioks are inoculated with tho germ by becoming infested with tick.-: imm diatly after birth. At this age they suffer a vory mild attack of the dis ease with no visible external symptoms, aud after they have passed through it they are then proof against the infection and can be exposed to tioks later in lite without harm. But if oattle are raised on i m.<) 0Q which there are no ticks and are afterwards moved to tick-infested lands, they wi ii become infected with the dis ease. They will also suffer trom the disease if they remain on the. land on which they were raised and tick-infested oattle are introduoed among them. Beeauso'of these facts the Federal Gov ernment has established a quarantine line across the couutry, dividing the re gions infested with tioks from those in which there are no tioks. No oattle can be moved from the tick-infested logions across this quarantine lino, except when they are being shipped for butchering to a slaughter-house which has direct rail road connection. South Carolina is placed below this quarantine Hue amoug the tick-iufested regions. Hence, oattlo can not be shipped from this State to points above the quarantine line except for im mediate slaughter, ('attie for dairy pur poses, or for feeding or breeding are barred. Thus, the market for the cattle produced in the State is considerably restricted. Some of tho States included within the tick-infested area, notably Virginia, North Caroliua, Texas and Oklahoma, whioh had within their boundaries an area in which ticks existed only on a few farms or ranches, have succeeded in hav ing such areas placed above the quaran tine line, thus opening new markets for the cattle raised therein. This was ac complished by the passage of a law by the Legislature establishing a State quar antine dividing the slightly infested area from the other part of the State and the eradication of ticks (rom the infected places in the slightly intered area. When these conditions were brought about the State quarantine line was then adopted by tho Federal Government aud made a partof the National quarantine line. This plan is just as feasible in South arolina as in any of the States mentioned. In a great part of the State since the passage of the stock law the cattle tick han be oome almost extinct and existe only on a place hero and there. The first step in the matter, however, mast be taken by the Legislature. CASTOR I A For Infants and Children. The Kind You Have Always Bought Bears the Signature of Rojestvensky Acquitted.

If so, it will interest you to know that it can be stopped with Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Pills; and without any bad after effects, and this without dan ger of forming a drug habit or having your stomach disar ranged. They positively con tain no opium, morphine, co caine, chloral, ether or chloro form in any form. Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Pills relieve pain, and leave only a sense of relief.

The destruction with dynamite of the famous "Indian Altar Stone" on the farm of Joseph Horner, near Millsborough, has created intense in dignation among scientists. Horner admits having blown the famous rook to pieces, and says he did it be cause parties were continually tramp ing over his farm to look at it. The altar, as it was oalled, stood on top of a high hill on the Horner farra. It was covered with figures of men, animals, snakes, and, strang est of all, a figure of a kangaroo, all chiseled in the rook. It was discov ered a few years ago, and ever since thu Horner farm has beeu a mecen for archaeologists, all of whom were puzzled over the kangaroo carving on the big rock. Horner does not think he owes any apology to ?cienoe for his act, but simply says it was on his own ground and he could do as he pleased with it. Ile objected to its being there be cause people who came to see it trampled down his wheat. OASTOIll Bur? thu The Kind You Haue Always Bought Bignatore Of A warrant for John D.
