The child, seven years of age, was found by the roadside by some workmen, where she had crawled from a clump of bushes a few yards distant. She was sobbing piteously and when picked up by the workmen she was found to be terribly lacerated and had evidently bled nearly to death. The child told her story between I cries of pain. She said she was play-/ j ing by the roadside when a paan I grabbed her, placed his hand over her i mouth and carried her into the woods. ; He left her under a clump of bushes i and fled down the road. The workmen started with her to a physician's office, but they had gone but a few rods when she died in their arms. The alarm was sounded and m?r? ora+hprpH from all r>arts of the city and assembled in the public square. The story of the child, repeated from lip to lip, caused intense excitement, and two hundred men I were soon on the trail of the ravishef.

Chicago Folios Capture South Carolina Slayer, Chicago?The old saying "murder will out" came true in an unusual way when policeman Walsh awakened a man who was asleep in a doorway of the Illinois Hospital, Washington Boulevard and Halsted street. The jnan, long a fugitive from justice, opened his eyes, saw the police man's star, and leaped todiis feet with a shriek. "You want me for the murder 1 You are a policeman !" he cried, as i he stood dazed before Walsh. A moment afterward he collected his wits and ran, but the policeman, drawing his revolver, forced the man to stop and led him to the station.

S A farmer who does not reside many miles from Edgefield told the writer a few days ago that from each plow on his place he sells every year eight bales of cotton, 100 bushels of corn, $50 worth of hogs and about $50 worth of hay. This is an excellent i showing, and we believe every word of it, for this gentleman is not given to blowing his own horn. Just think, if the farmers of the county would do half so well year after year old Edgefield would blossom as the rose from one end of the county to the other.?^dgefield Advertiser.
