About eleven o'clock the alarm was given and tire was discovered m the storehouse of J. E. Douglass. In a very short time the eutire building was wrapped in flames i and soon caught the store and warehous e of L. S. Douglass & Co., which soou became unmanagable. Everything was lost except about 200 bales of cotton and a small quantity of sugar. L. S. Douglass & Co. lost ab?ut $15,000; insurance $11,000. J. E. Douglas, lost about .$5,000; insurance $3,00f. Nothing is known of the crigiu of the Sre. MEETING OF COUNCIL. At a meeting of the Town Council Fritk. afternoon several matters looking to the improvement ?f the town were discussed. Among them was the advisability of getting new hose and of having the engines nicely lixed up. The Intendant was instructed to ascertain the number of shade trees mis>ing on Main Streetand the cost of replacing them. This will be a decided improvement and will add much to the looks of the main thoroughfare of the town. i -3 ? ? J ~ ~ ? 10 was ueciucu iu uunu it xentt; around the hollow iu front of Mr. T. T.

Boggp, the evan<jelin of Bethel Presbytery, has been preaching day and night to large and attentive audiences at this church. His sermons hare created great interest and much good has been done in arousing the members of the church, as well as bringing others iuto the fold. The gospel message delivered by this ambassador of Christ has touched the hearts ot all ages and conditions. The little child, the vontn ana maiaen, as wen as me man of mature age, heard and accepted the glad news of *alvation. As a result of the meeting eight precious souls heve professed their faith in Chiist and enlisted under his banner. Mr. Bui.-g* will preach at Union Church Tin.isday uight. m. IXcCRAXCE ITEMS.

Their claim was for $2,000, for which they get $1,967.89. Thi? was promptly done and wa3 very satisfactory to the insured. Messrs. Caldwell & Ru ft'have about settled their loises by the recent fire with the companies in which they were insured. The amount of goods lost was satisfactorily adjmted with the several adjusters. The damage^on their goods, that were saved, was left to abitration and this too was satisfactorily settled. Mr. Phillips, of Charleston, who represented the insurance companies, and Mr. T. II.

Many were the wishes that they may live long to witness and enjoy many more anniversaries ef the event, and The News and Herald ioins in the wish. I I THE COUNTY BOARD OF CONTROL I MEETS. The County Board of Control met on Monday and at that meeting received communications from the councils of Winnsboro and llidgeway advising the Board of the action and intention of the councils of these two places. We publish the communication which were received by the Board in full below: Winnsbouo, i?. C., Jan. 15, 1894. To the County Board of Control: Gentlemen: At a meeting of" Town Council held in December last, atteu tion of council was brought to the fact that there was illegal <-alb of liqu?r, etc.. being carried un in town. Council at once adopted resolutions instructing attorney t? draft an ordinance to punish and prevent mch illfgal sale.. It is the intention of council to enforce the ordinance and to use its best endeavors to prevent such sale. W. G. Jordan, Intendant. Ricigeway, S. Jan. 12, J94.

John Smith, whose many thefts have Viim fn Iia rp.irpd in iail. and whose crimes culminated in his killing* a negro woman in Columbia a few days ago, was arrested here Thursday morning by Policeman McMaster. It seems that he came up from Columbia "Wednesday night, and made some inquiries at tne depot for the home of a colored man in town. About eleven exlock Thursday morninnf Tnfonrlanf JTnrrian ft telfi "1VIIUKU, ? j gram from the Chief of Police of Columbia giving a description of the murderer and asking for his arrest. Mr. McMaster, having overheard the negro's conversation at the depot the previous evening, knew about where to find him, and in less than an hour had him safely locked up. Smith submitted very willingly to his arrest. On his war, however, to the guardhouse, he endeavored to use his "gun", but found the officer too quick for him. Coming quietly along he suddenly jumped a few feet away, faced Mr. McMaster, and pulled his pistoi. As he did so, Mr. McMaster covered him and told him to drop his weapon or he would kill him. This, the negro very wisely concluded to do. llr. McMaster then told him that he would be shot if he attempted te run. He replied with an oath that he didn't care, that he would just as soon die one way as another. In response to a few questions from Capt. Jordan the negro admitted that he was John Smith and coiifessed that he shot the woman. He says though that the shooting was accidental. As soon as this information was obtained J a telegram was sent to Chief RadclifFc telling him of the arrest. In response to this Jailor Coieman came up on the afternoon train and took the prisoner to Columbia Friday morning. Smith * ' - * . i ?-? af Katyia I will ne aouDi reei very uiuuu au uumv in jail there as Mr. Coleman ?ays lie has been raised behind the bars. Noah Martin, who is also implicated in the murder, has, according to Smith, skipped for the North. It is probable though that he will b? caught before he gets much further than Charlotte. Mr. McMaster deserves credit for his quick and efficient work. The State of Friday says that John Smith is held for the murder of Melyina Adams. The verdict of the jury at the coroner's inquest wat to that effect. DEATH OF MRS. M. M. EVANS. Mrs. M. M. Evans breathed her last at the residence of her son-in-law, Mr. W. J. Elliott, about 9.45 on Tuesday morning. Mrs. Evans was the relict j of Mr. Jno. "W. Evans, who died about l the year 1886. Mrs. Evans was a sister : of the late Gladnev P. Martin and ' Mrs. E. S. Davis, the latter being the only living member of the family at present. She was about sixty-nine years of age. Her death was daily expected. She fell while attempting to carry out a basin of water and noTror <rnf. nn nn hnr feet asrain. She &vv ? v contracted the gripp after her fall and it was evident to her family iliat her patient, enduring, Christian spirit would soon take its flight. She never murmured nor complained, and even wh#n unable to turn her frail body over in bed would sometimes lie and endure pain, for fear of giving seme one trouble, rather than ask to have her position changed. She died without. .m effort or a struarsrle. Mrs. Evans was a member of Salem (Presbyterian) Church, where her remains wero laid to rest on Wednesday by the side of her husband. Fearing that there would be no minister at Salem Church to conduct the funeral service a short one was held Wednesday morning at the residence of Mr. Elliott. It was conducted by Dr. Jordan, assisted by Rev. C. E. McDonald. The death of Mrs. Evans made a double bereavement to the family of Mr. A. M. Wallace. Mrs. Dr. Wallace. the mother of Mr. Wallace, preceded Mrs. Evans, who is Mrs. A. M. Wallaces mother, only about twenty hours. So the mother of both husband and wife were lying dead at the same time. Such bereavement is uncommon, but the families of both parents hare the blessed consolation that these two weary spirits have gone to that rest prepared for the children VI UVVi# Oh, death! where is thy sting; Oh, grave! where is thy victory. CORRECTION AND PERSONALS. White Oak, S. C., Jan. 13.?Year ' correspondent "B," datad December 30, 1893, made an error that doei a great injustice to our community, viz.: *' We have had teveral dances and oilier entertainments duriug the holi| days, which the young people enjoyed j very aauch." j Allow me to *ay that there wasn't f a dance in White Oak during the j holidays. Such entertainments are | something of the past. Our beloved f pastor, Rev. J. A Smith, hai too | much influence over hi? flock for such thiug? as dances. Wc, therefore, feel "B" has done hiui an injustice and beg leave to nake known that that part of his notes was a mistake. W? feel that w* were very fortunate in getting the services of Mr. Smith and do not care to have any one accusing his congregation ot any such thing as dancing. We regret very muck to say that Dr. W. F. Mitchell, who has been practicing in this community for the i*af four v??ara. more or less has gone to New Hope, where he will continue bis profession. Dr. Mitchell has been err taithful and successful iu restoring strength and health to ?hc afflicted of his neighborhood. We swish him a pleasant and profitabie ] future in his new field of labor, and j i rust he may be as successful there as n he has been here, lie leaves this | territory vacant, and we hope some j prominent physician may loon come $ forth to take charge. 8 Miss Jerneha Mitchell left on MonI dar the 8th f#r York, where she ha? j| accepted a position as teacher. 9 Miss Maggie Hamilton is now visi| ting relatives in Abbeville. t Several are quite sick at present | with grippe. m. c. * TVT A n?V j JtHEUMATlS-Jl V^l/KC.-k' i.t n J^AA.

We should " "be thankful, though, that we hare - 5 stood those trials and disappointments i that, notwithstanding short crops and :I low prices, we paid the most <rf our just debts, that we stood the financial panic remarkably well; moreover while we might have been destroyed by the mighty cyclones that swept the land, through the gooduess of Almighty God we are still spared to renew the battle of life. Sociables are still raging in our neighborhood. It doesn't seem that hard times lias any effect whatever cn them. A sociable was given at Mr. E. P. Jenkins'on Thursday evening where the young people of the community mingled together and spent several hours very pleasantly in various games of amusements, etc. Another sociable wa- given on Monday night at Mr T. W. Mellichamp's. Here chit chat, soft talk, parlor games, and numberless other amusements were indulged in by a i present, licfreshtneuls were also serred. Our i wish is that wc may be so lucky a.? to soon again be permitted to spend such pleasant evenings. The Lower Longtown school opened nn Mnnrlav under the tutorship of Mr. J. 11. Sterling.

The Irby plan as set forth in the resolutions of the Laurens Alliance does not seem to meet the approval of all of the leaders. The Columbia correspondent of the Neics and Courier gives the following- as the statement of a State officer: "We have nothing but Democratic clubs in tlis State. The minority has come in with us, joined ur ranks as members of our clubs and submitted to defeat. We canrot now throw them overboard. I am opposed to a July Convention, such as is proT\/Nonrl Qnrl urill 11CA AtTPI'V inflllPnfiG I ^UOV/U j MUU ?f ASA ucy vr v?

"We then had a platform to adopt and principles to announce; wc cannot consistently hold a factional Convention to nominate or suggest any candidates. The whole thing is wrong." Well, now truly, this is refreshing. A State officer under the present administration willing to wipe out factional lines and opposed to a factional convention. He had best not let his name be known. It is none of our fight. Our hope is that the people will after awhile wake up to a realization of the fact that all theie conventions and factions aud factional fights are not benefiting them, and only the leaders are getting the plums.
