Calhoun, of Beau mont, Tex., is spending several days al the home of bis brother in-law, Col; S. Br Mays, having stopped over while returning ;to hie borne from Washington, ft: C., where he recently attended the Tuberculosis Congress. Mr.?. Eu-, genia Middleton, d)r. Calhoun's only surviving sister, is-also at the home of Col. Mays. -Dr. Cal houn moved from Edgefield' to Texas in 1866. He and Mrs. Mid dleton are the only surviving members of a family of five sons and two drughters. Upon being questioned by The Advertiser's representative about the crop con ditions rn Texas, Er. Calhoun stated that they are making more cottm .than they can gather. Far mers are offering $1 per hundred and are tillable to get pickers at that pricv The record breaking crop in Texas accounts to some extent fo'* the low price that pre vails. Fire in Buncombe. , Thursday night last about one o'clock Dr. J. G. Tompkins was awakened by light rrftected in his room and the roar of fire. Oo going ??t bo found one of the nouses in his back yard burning. The alarm was immediately given and several hundred-people gather ed to offer assistance in checking the flames. The building in which | tlie fire" originated could nut b^ saved, nor c-uld a small wood hr;?se jiear by, but the bucket brigade and tho chemical eugine k^pt the fire from spreading to buildings in the lot. Hi? resi dence was protected from th3 flames by several large oaks. But for the fact that the small huild ing near the lof. was covered with tin, which prevented the flybe of sparks, tho barn and ; fables would doubtless bav? burnpd ?Iso Dr. Tompkins had no insurance on the two boises but the con tenes, consisting of seed cotton, oats, cotton seed and stock feed, were insured. The loss aft^r de ducting th?insurance willmount to about $400. Th* property was iuebrpd in one of Mr. H.A.Smith's ora pan ie and, as the insurance adjuster?. happened to be. in Edgefield the next day, the loss was paid in Ieee than twenty four hours after the fire, occurred. .OBITUARY. .Sacred to the memory, of Mrs. Jane Whitlock, born September 18th. 1818 in Abbeville, S.
