S.-On Saturday night about 12 o'clock, incendiaries set fire to the corn crib and stable of J. P. Cook who lives near here.

Mrs. Cook and her little ones were at home. She with great risk of her life, succeeded in getting their only horse from the burning building. Her dress was scorched badly in this eff'ort. It is supposed to be a case of revenge for arresting violators of the revenue I.ws. Mr Cook has recently arrested several negroes around here for selling whiskey without a license, which prob ably explains the burning. The white people are much incensed at the out rage.-The State.

Mr. Wheeler has had a well bored near the dining-room which will furnish water quite couvenient.

All the Boards of Equalization for Newberry Bounced. PROSPERITY, Feb. 6.-"Old thingp have passed away, and all things have become new." Thirty-three heads in Newberry County have fallen in Comp troller General Ellerbe's official basket at one fell stroke of his mighty guillo tine. The chairman of the equalization board for this township (No. 9) in formed The State correspondent this morning, that the auditor for Newber ry County was instructed by Mr. El lerbe to appoint new men in every instance on the township boardsin this county. The comptroller'., action in this matter is a direct reflection on the good men who hitherto composed these im portant boards, nearly every one of whom wvere administration men.. May be they didn't assess the stock of the New berry Bank to suit him. See?-The State. The chairman of the board for No. 9 is mistaken. The Auditor had no in trutions from the Comptroller Gen eral to appoint new men, and in mak ing his appointments he had no inten tion of offending any one. The appointments had no reference to the bank case or any other case. They were made in December last and pub lished in all the county papers. That is all there is in it. See?

Kildow, Student of tho Theological Seminary. [Special to News and Courier.] COLv.iErA, February .-He cut his throat from ear to ear! Who? George W. Kildow. This is the question and answer that passed frcm lip to lip this morning when it was learned that Mr. George W. Kildow, a student attending the Theological Seminary here, had com mitted suioide this morning about 8 o'clock, at the residence of Mr. Barney Williams, just outside the city limits. The facts of this horrible tragedy are as follows: Mr. Killow retired last night at-he hour he was accustomed to,and in apparently good spirits and health. This morning at 7.30 o'clock his wife waked up and call to her husband to get up and make -he fire, as has been his custom hitherto. Mr. Kild,)w re mained silent, and thinking him un usually tired from his studies on the night previous, she arose and went in the adjoining room, the kitchen, to start the fire. She bad been in this room but a few moments when she heard a fall in the room she had just left, and on entering her horror may be imagined when she beheld the prostrate body of ber husba3d, stretched at full length on the floor, with his throat cut from ear to ear. She immediately called for help, and raised his head, thereby endeavoring to stop the flow of blood, but all in vain. He was dead. It seems that Mrs.Kildow had scarcely left the room when Mr. Kildow arose took his --azor from underneath his pillow, and going to the corner of the room knelt down and made the stroke which proved im mediately fatal. The coroner held an inquest this morning, and the jury rendered the following verdict: "George W. Kildow came to his death from a wound across the throat, inflicted with a razor in his own hands." Mr. Kildow was 29 years of age and has been in atteddance at the Presby terian Theological Seminary for some time. Last fall he was sent to Atlanta, Ga, to be treated for mental aberration and was recently returned, supposed to be able to resume his studies here. The faculty of the Feminary concur in saying that his sad and untimely end was due to an unbalanced mind. Mr. Kildow was from Piedmont, W. Va., and had recently married Miss Bena McNaughton, of Nashville, Tenn. The sympathy of the entire community is extended to the afflicted wife. SCHOOLS FOR THE TEACHERS.
