Comiug upon the a, heels of the recent disastrous confla- a1 gration it was but natural that the fc alarm should cause intense excitement. ^ The fire originated in the kitchen -r which adjoins the residence. "When ^ discovered it had not assumed alarm- ? ing proportions, but being so far- out cj help could not be had for some time. ^ The fire department responded prompt- gj ly, but could do nothing owing to the ,r lack of water. Two mules were y hitched to the engine, but owing to ? the ?ad condition of the roads the c] mules were unable to pull it farther j: than Mr. Garrison's house. Even if C( it had been carried to Mr. Flenniken's ?j nrtthincr mnld have been done. The .. e ^ house burned slowly, thus enabling ^ the firemen and citizens to save a large n portion of the furniture before the complete destruction of the house. The hoase could have been saved had it been near enough for the steamer to have reached it with water. Owing a to this cause nothing could be done e except save the contentsand let it burnr. p This loss is a most serious blow to Mr. u Flenuikcn and family. It leaves them d without a dwelling, and it is super- d Sous to say that the whole communi- E ty deeply sympathise with them. Mr. fc! | Flenniken had $2,000 insurance on his | a y / y -rV- - y':'V -r *"--; "V[welling and $600 on his furniture, leither of which will by any means over the loss. This, with the recent ire is a most serious loss to the town ,na to taose most, imviesicu, ?jiu ?c arnestly- hope that we may not soon iave occason to chronicle anything Ise of a similar nature. An Unfounded Humor. It has been currently rumored on he streets of Winnsboro that White:ead & Co., of Waynesboro, Ga., had een indicted in the Courts of that tate for selling liquor. An article ppeared in the News and Courier to ae same effect, and consequently the em had a wide circulation through nt the State. The item in the News nd Courier was as follows: In Burke County Court yesterday, udge H. H. Perry presiding-, Mr. [ugh B. McMaster, of the drug- firm f Whitehead & McMaster, of Waynesoro, was tried lor violating the local ption law by selling G. Barrett & o. Jamaica tonic. The main issue ras whether the tonic belonged to the ass of medical compounds as distinuished from alcoholic beverages, or hether it only contained such a quality of alcohol as was essential to its itegrity and preservation as a tonic ad medicine. A fi'Am Pl*nf TT P. XXU1U UXV/llO II VUJ A?VAf v rhite, State chemist at Athens, and t. J. M. Hull, were introduced as rideuce. Solicitor P. P. Johuson rosecutpd the case, and the defendant as represented by Judg^ R. O. ovett and Messrs. Twiggs & Verdery. his afternoon a verdict of acquittal as rendered, which news will be jceived with delight by Mr. McMasr's friends in Columbia, of which ty he is a native. Our former townsman, Dr. II. B. :cMaster is a member of the firm (dieted and is a native of "Winns>ro. We think it entirely unnecesiry to make any apologies for Dr. cMaeter in the matter. He is too ell and favorably known in the coun and State to need any defense at lr hands. But as the minor has iceived wide circulation we deem it scessary to make some statements in ie matter in justice to Dr. McMaster. vervbodv who knows him knows lat he would not violate the law in lis matter or any other, and his card, hich we have clipped from the raynesbore True Citizen, fully exains the matter: We wish to state the facts in referjce to the recent case against us for tiling' Barett's Jamaica Tonic. We ive G. Barrett & Co. permission to zve a test case made agaiust us, as e have always sold the tonic for its ledicinal properties, and not as a average. "Therefore feeling that we ere- neither violating the prohibition w, or bidding defiance to law in ly way, or against the wishes of the Dod people of the county, upon these rounds we gave our consent. Which, 7 the decision of the county judge, e are glad to state were vindicated t our course. We will furthermore ate, in conclusion, when we have to jfy the law and the wishes of law >iding citizens for a little pecuniary xin, we will close our buiness and ek something else. Very respectfully, . * "Whitehead & Co. A. Gr. "Whitehead, H. B. McMastee. As will be seen by the above, the *m of which Dr. McMastcr is a ember, desired a suit to be brought rainst them so as to establish their >rrect position in the matter. Deal's in the same place had been selling Gringer Tonic," which was 85 per lit. alconol, and Dr. McMaster did )t want to rest undar the stigma of lling "tonic" as a beverage. He, lerefore, had suit brought against m to set his firm right before the iople. The Barrett "tonic" contains 55 than 20 per cent of alcohol and is n intoxicating, as was decided dv e Conrt. We feel it superfluous to y to defend Dr. McMaster in the atter. Hi- high standing and unsul^d repGtation is a sufficient reply to ^warranted rumors. Q UARTBRZT C02TF?RESCE. eport of the Proceedings of the Recent Meeting at this Place. The second quarterly conference of e Winnsboro Circuit was held in :e Methodist Church on Saturday st at 12 o'clock, Her. S. B. Jones, . D. presiding. "W. S. Hall was losen secretary. The roll was called id the routine business of the conferee was attended to. The pastor ade an encouraging- report of the ineral condition of the charge, .essrs. E. M. Shannon and J.

Bethesda was chosen as the i:ext ace for the meeting of the Quarterly onference, and the Conference then Ijourned with the benediction. On Sunday morning the clouds were >wering and the frequent showers sptmany at home, but those who raved the weather and came anyhow ere richly repaid by a splendid serion from tiae Presiding Elder on the :xt, "Am I my brother's keaperr" y night-fall the clouds had blown svav and a large congregation listened itentivelv to a plaiD, practical and >rcible sermon by the same minister om the words, "These shall go away lto everlasting punishment." The ey to the text was found in the word these", and the speaker showed con;usively that those who received so reat condemnation y^ore tnose wnu .in ply did nothing?drones in God's reat hive?idlers in His vineyard. Fho that listened, was not impressed 'ith the idea that members of the tiurch, as a general thing, did too ttle for Christ ? These exercises smpletcd the work of the Conference, 'he report of the pastor was most enouraging, and we hope his good work i onr midst may bear abundant fruit ot only in his pastorate, but during iture ones.
