AN ATTEMPTED ASSAULT.
Schley County, Georgia, Excited Over
Black Fiend's Act.
Ellaville, Ga., November 27.?
Great excitement prevails here this
evening on account of an attempted
assault committed this morning near
here. While alone in her home with
her babe, Mrs. Andrew Tellars, wife
of a farmer, was confronted by an
unknown negro who threatened,
death if she screamed. Instead of^
screaming the frightened woman
seized her child and dashed from the
dwelling, leaving the black invader
in full possession. Rushing to^ the
field where Mr. Tellars was engaged,
she gave the alarm. The negro escaped
before assistance arrived.
One negro has since been captured
by the pursuers and held for more
complete identification. Two hundred
armed men are searching the
woods of Schley county this afternoon
in a determined hunt for the
negro, probably not feeling certain
of the guilt of the prisoner already
in custody.

Explosion Sinks Schooner.
Jacksonville, Fla., November 28.?
The explosion of a gasoline tank on
the schooner Marion R., owned by the
Florida Fish company, this morning
badly injured Jack Cullen, white
cook, tore two great holes in the
schooner and she sank in the river
off the foot of Ocean street. Eleven
members of the crew had narrow escapes
and had it not been that the
schooner sank fire would have exploded
the main tank, causing a great
loss of life The Marion R. was valued
at $6,000 and is partly covered
by insurance. Although death stared
him in the face Mate Peter Newton
ran into the hold and dragged out the
unconscious form of Jack Cullen, who
was badly burned, but will recover.
Blackville Depot Burned.
Blackville, Dec. 1.?The Southern
railway depot at this place was totally
destroyed by fire early this evening
resulting in a loss of about $12,000.
The fire, which originated in the
roof of the building about 7 o'clock,
spread so rapidly that all efforts to
check it were futile.
I Northbound passenger train No. 30
iwas delayed about one hour on ac'
count of the fire.

Got Money for Eloping.
New York, November 27.?Pleased
at his son's pluck in defying parental
authority, to the extent of !
wedding the girl he loved whether or i
no, Capt. John Fleming, a wealthy
contractor and prominent Tammy
Hall man, after his first anger cooled, i
summoned the couple to him and j
placed a check for $5,000 in his son's :
hands. j
"You're all right, my boy," said j
! Captain Fleming. "I'm proud of you
because you went right ahead and j

until you have spent this." j

| BONES OF BIG MEN. I
i !
! Found in Heart of a City Pottery and i
Arrowheads Near Them. j
i
i East St. Louis, 111., November 26! j
?A workman digging a foundation j
for a warehouse at the corner of Sec- :
ond and St. Clair avenues, in the j
heart of this city, unearthed to-day j
fifteen men's skeletons of extra large :
size. One skeleton, apparently that j
of a man seven feet tall, was stand- j
ing upright when a slab was removed j
from the top of the tomb. j
Pottery bowls, flint arrowheads i
and a stone hatchet were found at
the bottom of the tomb, near the base j
of which the fourteen skeletons were j
in a circle.
Vandals carried away most of the
bones. The Historical society of II- j
linois has been notified.
Strictly Fresh Eggs.
There are summer resorts, remote ]
I from any agricultural communities, j
where fresh harm products are even I
harder to obtain than in the city. J
It was at such a place that the new j
boarder, who had eaten four or five :
breakfasts there, began to wonder j
! why the eggs were invariably served j
fried.
"See here," he inquired one morn- j
ing of the genial colored man who j
waited upon him, "why do you al- :
ways fry eggs here? Don't you ever j
boil them?"
"Oh-oh, yes, sah!" responded the :
waiter, pleasantly. "Of co'se, yo' j
; kin have 'em boiled, if yo' wants 'en|- j
j But yo' know, sah, yo' takes de j
risk!" !
