TOWNVILLE VISITEO ; BY DiSnO?S HOE OIL MILL WAS BURNED TO THE GROUND LOSS WAS HEAVY Fork Township Oil MOL Togeth er With Entire Contents, Went in Flames Sunday Morning. Tho village or Tonwvllle was visit ed last Sunday morning about 2 o'clock by the most disastrous Are that tlie place has ever experienced. AB a result, the Fork township oil mill, ono of the largest oil mills in the county, was completely destroyed, together with all outbuildings on the property of the company. The fire was discovered a few min utes after 2 o'clock and had made so much headway that there was Util, upe in attempting to extinguish the blaze. There was no chance to get any of the machinery out of the place and as the cotton seed meal, hulls and oil burned very rapidly, it was at once seen that the place was doom cd. The main -building, a large brick structure, waa probably worth $30,000, while the ginnery, 60 bales ot "Un tere." 500 cords of wood, meal cakes tc the value of about $1,500 and sev eral bales of cotton will bring the to tal loss up to about $40.000. It is understood that .the company carried ?21,000 cn its property. A solution of how the Are started ls bard to arrive at but it ls generally believed that there must have been a piece of steel or a nail or some other metal object in the seed when lt was fed to the huller. The teeth A this machine evidently struck Ute metal and caused a spark, T? ich ignited the seed and the*: this was carried through the conveyer into the seed room. Aa the seed continued to tall this could have burled the dre and it would smoulder for hours before breaking into a blase. This suppost tion appears more reasonable, since Townville people smelled burning cotton near dark but could not deter mine where it was coming from. Only by desperate efforts on the part of thc public of . Townville was it possible to save near-by buildings and barns from being destroyed by the flames. A message was sent to Anderson asking that tho city officials order the motor truck to Townville to assist lu fighting .fire but at that ^articular time the fire department had its hands ful here, battling with a nasty fire in North Anderson. The mill was owned bv J. J. Fret well, Lee G. Holleman,. D. O. brown and the estate of John N. Bleckly, While'T.v B. Jones of To Wu vi ile was president of tho company and ger of the mill.. , It ls understood that the milt ha boen partially burned on three otb? occasions but each time was remod eled and baa never been moved from ita original location. Export baa : it that the owners are already planning to begin work on the erection of a new building. < %jot iJotton rejrmers Donated Three Bales to The Hammond School to Aid The Institution.

SO Germans Renew Their Offensive i The Allied Lines to the Coast After Most Severe F?j So far aa disclosed by official state-1 menta the situation in tho war thea tres, both east and west, remains vir tually unchanged. In Belgium and northern Frauce the Allies and the Germans apparently take turns as suming the offensive, while both sides are bringing up reinforcements and preparing for the decisive struggle predicted for an early date. In the Bust the Russians, according to the Petrograd announcement, are still driving the Germans and Aus trians before them. England's attitude and determina tion to continue the bitter struggle until all the demands of the Allies are satisfied were strongly set forth by Premier Asquith at the Lord mayor's banquet in London. The premier de clared Great Britain would not sheath the sword until Prussian military j domination was destroyed and he fur ther announced that Turkey, by her entrance into the struggle had dug her grave and committed suicide. Before the sante assemblage Field Marshal Earl Kitchener revealed, the fact that there are a million and a quarter men now undergoing mili tary training in England and he ask ed for more. Advices from South Africa say the forces under Christian Beyers, one of the leaders in the revolt, have been I dispersed in the Transvaal by govern ment forces, losing nine men killed, more than that number wounded and 346 prisoners. They also report that the rebel general DeWet, has defeat j ed a government command under Gen 'eral Cronje and that General DeWet's son was killed. LONDON, Nov. 9.-The Germans have renewed their offensive in the vicinity of Ypres and Dlxmude, where ?several attempts to break through the Atliea linos to the coast of France wore repulsed after the most severe fighting of the war.
