The E. & D. Railroad Company made a lender on Saturday, through their local attorney, of their taxes. The amount tendered not being ?uffi cient to pay the taxes under the new assessment, the County Treasurer refused to accept the chocks until he should be advistd by his superiors what course to pursue. The checks were held here until Thursday, upon which day they were returned to railroad headquarter?, the County Treasurer having received no authority to accept them. This is the htitus of the matter at present. A BRIGHT BEGINNING. New Year's Day was not generally ' observed iu "Winnsboro business circles, although the banks and the postoffice took advantage of the legal holiday, and practically suspended business for the day. The postoffice was open only for the distribution of mail. Special services for the day ^ere held at St. John's Episcopal Church. The day was an ideal one, meteorologically speaking, and the New Year had . at least, a bright beginning. The News and Herald sincerely hopes . that the year 1894 will be to all of its readers and patrons as full of brightness and sunshine, as was the day which marked its advent.

The 1st of January, Emancipation Day, is the colored people's Fourth of July, and it is always made the occasion of an extensive celebration. Monday was no exception to the rule. The crowd commenced to collect early in the morning, and by noon the streets were thronged. The principal feature or me uay s program was a grand street parade in which hundreds of colored people participated. The Emancipation Proclamation was read by Rev. Jno. C. Jackson and an oration was delivered by the Rev. A. P. Dunbar, of Columbia. A brass baud was in attendance, ana "The Star Sprangled Banner/' "Marching through Georgia" and other airs appropriate to the occasion were rendered. yeuralgic Persons And those troubled with nervousness resulting from oere or ?vorworfc will be relieved by Ukinj Brown's Iron Bitttrs.

What is so rare as a Christmas day like th*t just passed, and what is more likely to inspire men with feelings of peace and good will toward their fellowmen, and m?.ke them temporarily oblivious to the carrs and troubles of life. It was au unfeasonrsKia /lav it fmp. but a delitrlit 1 ul one. The sky was cloudless, and the balmy atmosphere was pervaded by a distinct tonck of spring. There are a great many people to whom the joyous season has no significance, but in a country likeours where the story of the nativity is familiar to very few. Christmas is a day which is spent in making mer; v. The day was spent here very quietly. Almo?t everybody stayed at home and enjoyed the day with their families or friends. The streets were not crowded, and those who were out. were very quiet; no disorder and very little drunkenness was observed. The temperature was almost too high for pleasant hunting, and the sportsmen were, consequently, not rtnf no Iui-op immhprs as n?ual. I ill C* m ? There were some though, who could | not resist the tempteticn to spend the I day in the field. Services were held at St. John's Episcopal Church at 10 o'clock Christ mas morning.

An Unknown Ji gro Decapitated by tlic : Train. Thursday night about 9.30 o'clock, an unknown negro boy, about fourteen or fifteen years of age, was run over and fearfully mangled by the north- j bound freight train. It is not known J exactly how the accident happened, but it is thought that the circumstances are about as follows: Not long before the killing the boy told some one that he was from Blackstock, and had boarded the south-bound freight to | steal a ride to Woodward. The train was running so rapidly when it pa sed : that point that he could not get off, and so he caine on to Winnsboro. ' Il is probable that he attempted to board the train which killed him, at the crossing in rear of Phillips' store, and in so doing was thrown between the cars. Ilis body was found lying between the rails a short distance north of this crossing. The head was completely torn oft', and almost every bone in his body was broken. The poor negro was so mutilated that it is an impossibility to identify him. It is almost certain that he is from Blackstock, but his name is unknown. The Coroner's inquest was held Friday, and a verdict in accordance with the above facts was rendered. T wna oftflv TTMM4Jnrr fVtr* JLt ?

Almost h Block of Kusiness and Dwelling i House g Burned. Sherman and his horde of bummers i applied the torch very vigorously while marching through Winnsboro, i and on several occasions sinco then our town has suffered serious lo?s by fire, but the fire which on Friday night swept away almost a block of business houses on upper Main street was one of the tigliest, though not the most disastrous, 111 the history of "Winnsboro. At 10.15 o'clock p. m.,er thereabouts, fire was discovered in the old Elder building and the alarm was immediately sounded. It did not take many minutes for all three of the fire com . .1 panies to make their appearance ana commence their struggle with the flames. The fire had unfortunately made so much progress, auu the building, a large wooden one, was so inflamable that it was soon realized by everybody that no human efforts could save it The building was deluged with water until it became evident} that to put any more upon that build- j ing would be a useless waste The; nozzles were then turned upon the old Shaw Hotel, which was already smoking, and the roof and walls of that house were kept thoroughly drenched. \ All of this work was without avail, j In a few minutes the building was in ! flames and given up. All of the en-! ergy of the firemen was then directed j to Caldwell & Ruffs store. The mostj unceasing and tireless efforts on thej part of the firemen did not prevent that building from catching, and it, j too, was soon wrapped in flames, j Just about this time the firemen did some noble work; it was good all the way through, but at this particular juncture their work was especially commendabie, and praiseworthy. Just before this the steam engine became disabled and useless, so that the work devolved upon the hand engine and the bucket brigade. Gallantly did; they do their duty. J. F. Mc.Vlaster's store was only j about fifteen feet from Caittweli &: Ruff's, yet it was saved, and scarcely j a shingle was burned. Messrs. M. W. J Doly, D. V. "Walker, T. W. Robertson, and several others stationed themselves on the roof and kept it saturated with water. A number of the firemen were were between the buildings where it was almost unbearably hot, but they stuck to their work like heroes audi kept the walls from catching. It was a great piece of work, and too much j cannot be said in praise of it. The colored firemen sustained their reputation as fire fighters. It was at one time thought advisable to blow up Caldwell k Ruff's store, but it was finally decided not to do so, as nobody understood that 'method of fighting the flames. i'lie nre spreau douj ways, anu iuc vacant lot south vf W. C. Beaty's store checked its advance in a northerly direction. As it seemed so certain that J. F. McMaster's .' tore would go, an attempt was luade to tear down Dr. Quattlebaum's office, it being thought thai the flic could be checked in that wcy. When it was found that McMaster's siure was not going, I he iilea was abandoned. Two or three times during the night buildings across the street were on fire. The people of Winnsboro have always felt that a fire in that locality would be very destructive w property. i The one Friday night could very well j have been worie. The following is a complete list of ihs buildings destroyed: Caldwell and 1 tuft's store, property of T. II. Ketchin, insurance on stock $6,000, none on building. The Shaw Ilott l, property of T. U. Ketrhin, insurance $2,o00, valued at $.3,000. "In this building was H. T. Matthews' store. His Io*s is abont $1,500. Mr. Matthews had no insurance at all. Mrs. Sitgreaves and family who occupied rooms in this building lost very heavily. The Eld?fr building, property of II. - - - >K/-V ftAA L. Elliott, ?r., insurance fc'^ouu, , valued at $3,500.

The fire is still a prominent topic, and it probably will bo for some time to come. Several insurance men have been in town this week adjusting the losses, and it is understood that the work was accomplished satbfac.'orily to the losers and the insurance companies. Inhere certaiuiv should have been no trouble on the part <;f the losers in having their policies promptly paid, as the rate, from -ii to 5J p; rcent, paid by tho properly holders who were burned out should insure a 6peedy settlement ot their claims by the companies interfiled. J. D. McCarley & Co. hada quantity of groceries stolen the night of the fire, but a.? there w^s no iusurance on the stock the loss will be clear.
