I Mize, a travelling man of Sylvester, Ga., angered at his sweetheart, i snatched the engagement ring from | her finger and threw it into the street, Miss Cinnie Hall, of Gordon, Ga., told him that he might go his way. That was Thursday. Mize made his last attempt at a reconciliation this morning when he called the girl from her breakfast table at her boarding house. She turned to leave him in the hall, when he pulled out his revolver and shot her four times. Then, while other boarders were making record time seeking barricades, he sent two bullets through his own heart and another through his left shoulder. As the girl lay on the floor Mize crawled over to her and kissed her twice, then fell back unconscious. Even then the dying girl made an ineffectual, half-conscious effort to repulse him. Mize died on the way to the hospital without regaining consciousness. The girl died this afternoon. George Raymond, another travell ~ i-"U ^ ^ V?

State Legislature Cut Off Appropriation for Militia. The State of Arkansas is now without a national guard, as the result of the defeat of the bill in the legislature of that State on Monday, proI viding an appropriation of $25,000 for the militia. The measure cannot be brought up again at this session of the legislature, and it is likely that the government appropriation of $170,000 will be withdrawn. In the debate one representative said that the legislature was there to appropriate money for education, and not for "murdering machines." He declared that this is a civilized age, and that there was no use for the militia, i Speaker Hardage, of the house, I was also against the bill. He said that no member of the guard had disI closed the names of those responsible for the shooting up of a negro pool room at Fordyce, Ark., last August, and to this day the men who participated in that have not been named by their comrades. He said further: i "A man who would see his comrades participate in crime and not aid in dicclosingsuch crime, is not worthy to wear the uniform of a soldier. Until the militia purges itself of this crime, I am not willing to vote for a cent for its maintenance. Not all of the men werd guilty of gamhling and unbecoming conduct at the Louisiana trip, but 7/hy didn't they come up like men and disclose the guilty parties?" The Arkansas National Guard concrete of two rppimpnts nf infantrv. composed of 1,700 officers and men.

See where cats can be used for a I fastidious young man's full evening dress, March 28.?adv. A Question of Recall. A man was carrying a live turtle along the street, when along came an Irishman, followed by a large dog. The countryman tried by gentle words to get the son of the Emer aid Isle to put his finger into the turtle's mouth, but he was too smart for_that. "I'll put my dog's tail in and see what the baste will do." He immediately called up his dog. took its tail in his hand and stuck it in the turtle's mouth. He had scarcely got it in when Mr. Turtle shut down on the poor dog's tail, and off the latter started at railroad speed, pulling the turtle after him at a more rapid rate than ever it had traveled before. The countryman, thinking that his day's work would be thrown away if the animal should run at that rate, turned with a savage look upon the Irishman and explnimoH "Call back your dog!" Paddy put his hands into his pockets, threw his head .to one side, winked, and then answered, with a provoking air, "Call back your fish!"? Irish Wit and Humor.

Dow, 111., March 9.?A country' side version of the "Merchant of i Venice," with a/ cow in the role of \ Antonio, still lacks a Daniel-cometo-judgement to decide a controversy which has arisen between Philip Weigand and James Hawkins, neighboring farmers and former friends. ' Weigand noticed that his cow indisposed and became afraid that she \ was about to die. Hoping to avoid a total loss, he sold the animal's hide to Hawkins for $7.50. Hawkins was tcr take the animal to his farm and kill it, and Weigard was to get the carcass to feed to his hogs. But the ' cow, seeming brighter in spirits in her new home, began to pick up, so that Hawkins was convinced that she* would not die after all. He doctored the animal, with the result that she recovered and a few days ago displayed* her gratitude by giving birth " to a calf. Wiegand immediately appeared and demanded that the cow with her calf be returned' to him. "I sold you only her hide," he said to his neighbor, "all the rest belongs to me." "I bought the skin, and all that's inside it goes to me," retorted Hawkins. Hawkins refused to surrender, the cow and calf, which he says he is holding as . security for his investment in the former's pelt. Each farmer has threatened the | other with an appeal to the courts ; for settlement of the tangle. Aged Woman Burns To Death. Charlotte, N.

Her i entire body was badly burned. 1 Mrs. Nash was alone in the house, ' i her daughter, Mrs. Lula Ferris, being t i at the home of a neighbor nearby where she was sitting up with a sick < person.
