The old Alston bouse wrr f>und to be on Are last Friday morning aboui half paBt five o'cloca, and when discovered tbe means of escape from the building had been cut off by tbe blaze. It Is not necesHary to tell how the mighty deml god.|Vulcan, hurled lurid flames sfcy high, and put out the t*r? with pitch black smoke. Suffice it to sap It was a great, big blsze that meant business from tue beginulng. When discovered the blaze was coming through the shingles of tbe roof and Included In its Krasp an end of the "Bridge of 8lgbs" that connected that building wltn the brick Hotel or Tageart House. The confusion and babel of sounds attendant on such scenes were everywhere In evlri?nr>? hcvkmi men with 60-horse power, brass lined, triple expansion lungs were yelling "Are,"'-fire" with force enough to make the blaze side step. Directly Mr. Taggart came out on tbe sidewalk and brought one long ringing alarm ol "Are" wblcb was followed by a gutieral sound tbat led one to believe be was trying to yell ,-flre" and at Ibe same time think where bis pocket book was. , About this time a gentlemen wbo occupied a room In tbe Alston House came out and said something like this to Mr. Taggart: "Mr. Taggart (all In ordinary tone) tbe bouse Is on fire and I, at present,(see no way to got out of bere. Won't you please be kind enougb to bave some one bring me a laddei?" Mr. Taggart assured blm tbat be would bring one or bave one brought. Tbe gentleman turned and taking his trunk quietly dumped It overboard together with some other bed room paraphernalia. A gentleman wbo wafc sleeping In another part of the A'ston House was finally and suddenly awakened. He was of a slightly different temperament from the one mentioned above. He ran to the window and leaned far out like a measuring worm yelling at the top noioh of his vocal strings- "Why In tbe bell don't somebody bring me a ladder here quick! I'm frying like a d?n llzzard ! The whole room's afire!'' A aarseyseeiug by tbe frantic motions 01 the gentleman ihat he evidently wanted something?of course the darkey did not understand what It was? went under the window and asked, "Boss ran I do anything for you? Maybe yoo would like for me to bring you u ladder." Part of the language that followed tbe dar key's suggestion Is absolutely unprintable. The ladder was brought aud so the boarder's life wan saved. While beds, bed?tends, pillows, chairs, tables and things boiled out of tbe windows like molasses candy boiling over, It Is said Lbat one gentleman g*ve vent to loud la mentations ?boui ibe loss of a dog. He won d rather ha\e ost everything else thai tie bad than to Lave Ills favorite ta loe casu in and cook. Soon alter the discovery of the Are kind Irlends helped remove theturulture from tbe i Hotel and the goods rrom ttae stores. Bjtb tvf-re plied np In the street. Master Willie Hughes came down from the 30UI in his birthday suit. He h?a his gown inder one arm aud a cat under the other, enjutrlng how "It" started. When things began to get pretty warm a arge (tray neuaea oiu mi wuu uu^hik tnd iiiustacioH slDged, ran out of tbe tire and faced tbe crowd for an Instant with bU old iead bobbing up aud down like a Hzzard* tVbat be saw seemed to dtsbeartea blm (or le turned and scampered bis last scamper )aok Into tbe flames. Miss Wlnton Taggart was rescued by a ladler Irom tbe topmost story. la all tbe excitement Postmaster Thomas Tolbert, who boarded at tbe boiei, kept bis qulllbrlum perfeotly. While others were ushlng here and there, he walktd out aud town tbe.'stepR, one by one, a small bund!* luder-hjs arm, slowiy mea-uredly, quietly, mobstruslvely. ns lr be bad Just received a uonih's vacation, bud nothing to do, and ?as going on a quiet walk in tbe cool of tbe evening by babbling orooks and lining rills At tbe time of tbe Are Mrs. Taggurt bad btrty-three boarders, aud sbe bad tbe neces- ( ary inrnlture for a bonrdlng bouse or that Ize. She had no Insurance. The hotel building was owned by Mrs. J. L. Vncrum, ol Charleston. It was worth about ?>,000 and was Insured for 88,000. Mr. A. B. Cheatham occupied the corner tore for general merchandise business iVhlle he saved a good many things they are n such coud'.tlon at to f>e almost unsalable, ilx ?oois were worth $6,000 and were insund or &J.500. Tbe mtdd e Btore was ocenpled by Mr. O. H. /Obb as a shos store. Mr. Cobo saved a good uan.v shoes but they are without boxes ar d o mixed as (to make them an undesirable iss^l.

Tbe store on Main street and In tbe rear of 1 be hotel was occt^pled by Mr. O. H. Cobb < tnd tbe goods were valued In above state- i nent of his loss, Tbr. Medium printing office, In a building ibout six feet from tbe Hotel, Is on Church itreet. Seeing tbe approach of tbe flames, ,he type, stands, and all other material ex. >en? thii*nresR were carried out. Muoh of tbe ,ype was knocfced Into pi (this Is Dot peaob pie either.) Tbe type In tbe forms on tbe itones was raked off Into vessels and carried mu. Tbe building was not barned. Tbe press could not be moved and so It was saved without sustaining any Injury. On Main street tbe new loe bouse, built less Lban a month ago, was destroyed. It was rebuilt tbe same day. While tbe ffre was in progress a great multitude of curious or Interested people were standing around. It developed tbat quite a number of persons would nave pointed tbe nozzle of tbe hose differently from tbe way tbe men In charge of the Job were doing tbe work, but on tbe whole, tbe firemen received greater praise in this fire than In any other flm that we have had. It is certain tbat more could Dot have been done. Tbe water supply was up lo tbe cspaclty of tbe standplpe and tbe reservoir. Tbe pumping arrangement was perfect and at tbe end tbe stream of water was even stronger than at the beginning. Tbe water was played on the building from five until eleven o'clock. The fire caugbt from tbe wooden bulldlug to tbe tblrd story of tbe brick building. This circumstance caused tbe Hotel to burn slowly and gave ample opportunity for all to move out at tbe front while tbe fire ate Its way from the rear. Everybody worked moving goods. Even tbe little girls helped move tbe goods tbat bad been plaoed too near the fire, to a place of safety. Tbe colored men and women worked line Turks and saved many hundreds of dollars woi lb of goods. Everybody \ 'as so excited over .{he flre tbat even "Hoax ltfyth" and 'kittle Joe" were forgotten for tbe time being. It was nine or ten o'clook when the news began to spr ad that "Little Joe" was elected Governor of Georgia. Wagons were employed and at 11 o'clock everything saved from tbe flre bad been bauled off the street and plaoed In temporary quarters. Mr, Cheatham has moved Into tbe stoie next to the new postofHoe. Mr. Cobb, for the present, at leaht, will occupy the store formerly coupled by tbe Abbeville Shoe Company, next to L. T. Miller's grocery store. Mr. Durgan has placed.what few goods tbat were saved from his large stock over the store of S. J. Link. Tbe Hotel was the property of the estate of Dr. Ancrum aDd was Insured for $8,500. It U reported th8t an offer of 821,000 ban been made for tbe property as It stands now. The Hotel was built about twenty five years ago by Mr. T.

Sheriff Lyon Nabs John McGaha in Madison Oonnty, Georgia, While Playing Checkers. On last Thursday evening Sheriff jLyon received certain information, that John McGaha was in Georgia and he took the first train in that dlrecton. Arriving very early id me morning at Comer, Georgia, he hired a bu/gy and drove down to the county seat. Finding the sheriff of the county he asked him if be would not help him arrest McGaha. The sheriff willioglv acquiesced. Lyon then<told the Sheriff that McGaha was a desperate character and that it would be on the safe aMe to eo armed. The Madison sheriff lefr Lyon there and went to consult some one. He returned shortly to say it would be impossible for him to go. Sheriff Lyon then approaohed the city police of Madison, but the police, after the Mayor gavt permission, refused to go. Lyon, theu in straits for some one to take him to the place im 1 - ? 2 i portunea a ooy wno auoweu gm enough, and with this boy he started (> his mission. it wan not long before they droytto the place where McGaha was supposed to be, and on nearing the housi McGaha was seeu sitting outside the bouse playing checkers. The Sbrrirf was nearly on McGaha x before McGaha noticed him; when he turned and recognized the Sheriffhe flew in the house and ^slammed the door. McGaha had two pistols buckeled around him and otherwise seemed ready for business. As soon as McGaha dodged into the house Sheriff' Lyon leaped into the piazza. The Sheriff* then told McGaha that he had come after him puite a little distance and that he could not see hi* way clear to return without him. further, that he would not appreciate any funny work from McGaha. In short he told McCaba that he was in trouble enough ulieady and that It would not be wise to tesisf, for one or the other would die sure. The Sheriff told him to leave his guns inside when he came out. McGaba shortly uubuekeled his two pistols and came out and surrendered. The Sheriff then gave his automatic shotgun to the boy who had come with him and ordered the boy to hold the guu, or McGaha until he could Becure McGaha. The young man took the guu but under the circumstance* the gun seemed posessed and persisted in wiggling in the young man's \ hands. So much did it wiggle that McGaha became uueasy for fear the boy's finger mkht touch the trggt-r and so besought the Sheriff to per mit the ooy 10 point wie ku" 1,1 a"' other direction, Throughout the whole trip, however, the young mau rhowed pretty good grit. Sheriif Lyou wan within haif an iiour of catching McGaha sometime ago in Washington, D. C. He telegraphed the authorities to leok out f<?r McGaha junt half an hour *ttei McGaha bad left the city. MiGaha was theu supposed to be on bis wa\ to Panama, Instead of going to Panama however, be bought a ticket to New York and left New York in the lurch and struck a bee-line for Buffalo. From Buffalo McGaha made a tour of Cauada aud from Canada back down through the Central States to Georgia. He could not resist the temptation to revisit Honea Path. McGaha is now in the toils awaiting his trial. The Anderson daily mail says that McGaba surrendered to Sheriff Lyon at Abbeville. When Sheriff Lyon goes after them they usually Burronder. It is not often, however, that such as McGaha look the Sheriff up to surrender to him. The Sheriff has to do all the looking. Notice to Liquor Dealers.

Cooper's theory regarding the human stomach Is rapidly becoming a topic of universal discussion. Cooper claims that the human stomach has befcome chronically deranged by modern conditions, and that sickness generally is the result. In a recent interview, while introducing his medicine in a leading city, Mr. Cooper said: "There is just one way, in my opinion, to maintain general health, and that is by building up the digestive organs. The vast majority of Americans today have weak, flabby, distended stomachs. This has been caused by many generations of over-feeding and lack of exercise, until today the entire civilized race Is affected. This is the true cause of most of the ill health of today. Little can be done to relieve it until the stomach Is once more brought back to normal conditions. "I am successful because my preparation puts the stomach in sound condition, aad as I maintain this is the I <* Established SCHOOL Tablets Ii General Sch Speed's D The Peoples i ABBEVIL OFFICERS.
