William Gnswaway, of Anderson, Loses lin ni and Content?. (Anderson Mail, Jan. 2.) Three mules and a cow burned to death, and another cow will die as the result of burns received when the barn of William Gassaway, who lives two miles from Sandy Springs, was destroyed by fire Tuesday night. All feed stuffs, etc., In the barn were also destroyed. The fire was not discovered by Mr, Gassaway until the roof was falling in-too late for anything to be done toward getting out the stock or any of the other contents of the barn. Mr. Gassaway was awakened by the noise made by the animals in their efforts to escape the flames, lt was about 10 o'clock at night. It is not known how the fire origi nated. The barn was a good, big building, substantially constructed, and having six stalls with passage way, and two sheds attached. There was a large quantity of feed stuff and other things stored inside the building. The loss will be heavy on Mr. Gas saway, as ho carried no Insurance.

Strong, vigorous men and women hardly over catch cold; it's only when the system ls run down and vitality low that colds and coughs get a foot hold. Now iBn't lt reasonable that tho right way to euro a cough is to build up your strength again? Mrs. Olivia Parham, of East Dur ham, N. C., says: "I took Vinol for a chronic cough which had lasted two years, and the cough not only disap peared, but lt built up my strength aa well." The reason Vinol ls so efficacious in such cases ls because it contains In a delicious concentrated form all the medicinal curative elements of cod liver oil, with tonic, blood-building Iron added. Chronic coughs and colds yield to Vinol because lt builds up the weak ened, run-down system. You can get your money hack any time If Vinol does not do all we say. J. W. Bell, Druggist, Walhalla, S.

New York, Jan. 2.-The crimson finger of Fate, and what neighbors term retribution, wrote a new and blood-stained chapter in the history of the alleged unhappiness of Henry C. Edey, the wealthy retired Wall street broker, aid his wife, "tho beautiful fishing girl of Amityville," to-day, when Edey shot his wife to death, and then turned the smoking gun on himself and blew out hiB own brains. Tho murder and suicide occurred In tho bedroom of Edey's palatial home on Great South Bay. Those who reached the room first found Mrs. Edey lying in the doorway, where she had fallen In her vain Hight lo escape from the bullet that her husband sent crashing after her. Nearby, Edey lay dying from a bullet from tho same gun, which he turned on himself, only after he had made sure that he had wiped out his revenge in the stain of his own wlfo's blood. Servants and neighbors who reach ed the scene could not help acknowl edging that tho double tragedy had been well planned, because Edey's last act had been sure that his wife was dead and that the bullet he was to fire into his brain would leave no possibility of recovery. Efforts to sav Ddey's life proved futile. Story of Tragedy. The story of the tragedy that ls said to have haunted the lives of the millionaire and his beautiful wife could form tba plot of the most dra matic . novel. The wedding of the rich broker and the daughter of the fisherman, after Edey had been di vorced In 1897 from Mrs. Lottie Carlton Edey, the sensational re ports of how the young Amityville beauty, soon after her marriage, had quickly quit her husband's palace to elope with his liveryman, the be lieved gossip that Edey ? ad taken the wife of his liveryman for his compensation, and the announcement of the reconciliation of all parties, have formed chapter after chapter for the dealers In polite scandal, until to-day's finis was written in the blood of the two principal characters. Henry Edey first came into promi nence for hlB fondness for fishing. Ho came Into social notoriety by his divorce In 1897 from his first wife, Mrs. Lottie Carlton Edey. Even while the divorce proceed ings were on, it was hinted that Edey had found and loved a girl along the shores of Great South Bay. She was said to be the "daughter of a fisherman and possessed the fatal gift of beauty." Shortly afterward the marriage was announced of Edey and Miss Katherine Llebenov, the daughter of tho Amityville fisherman. Edey brought his bride to one of the most wonderfully built homes along the bay, and the only , stories told were of the happiness of the two. Living as servants in the Edey palace were Gardner Murdock, a liv eryman and his wife, and fate de creed that its web of destiny should be woven around this liveryman, woven until lt should enmesh the beautiful fishing-girl wife, as well as her husband, and could only be bro ken by bullets that were to claim the lives of the two whom Great South Bay greetod as "the happiest of couples." All went nell In the Edey palace i ntl] last August, when village gos jips were thrown Into frenzied hap piness by the statement that Mrs. Edey had quietly left her home. Gardner Murdock also was gone. A few days later Mrs. Edey re turned and stated that she had mere ly taken a trip to see friends. She did not account for the disappear ance of Murdock, who also returned about the same time Mrs. Edey came back. Hardly had tho echoes of theso rumors died away, when villagers learned that Mrs. Edey was fond of horses. Edey bought her a hand some pony. Ho also bought Murdock a horse and asked him to teach Mrs. Edey how to become an expert horsewo man. The villago gossips again began their speculations. Dally rides be tween Mrs. Edey and Murdock wore given as tho reason for tho reported attachment between the two. Eager tongues carried tho stories still fur ther-not onl> wore Mrs. Edey and Murdock involved, but Insinuations grew Into statements that Edey, left alone, had formed an attachment for tho wife of tho liveryman-lover of Mrs. Edey. The reports came home and Edey and Murdock met in a rough and tumble fight In the drawing room of the Great South Bay palace. In the conferonco which followed between Edey and Murdock, the wives of the two were called and the four sat In final iudgment as to the outcome of the complex, abnormal and strange conditions. The conference was held In the same drawing room of the rich Young Read what Cardtri did F&iibault, Minn.

It was agreed that separations should follow. It was reported a few days later that Murdock, the liveryman, confided to a friend that he and the separated wife of the millionaire were to be married in the latter part of August. Friends of Mrs. Edey still tell how the broker's wife must have felt some restraint over leaving her hus band. As she and Murdock, the liv eryman, were at the Bellport station, a truck rolled by with a coffin on lt. The woman shuddered as she said: "I would willingly change places with the person in that box." A day or two later Mrs. Edey was found at the home of a married sis ter ?n New York city. She said that she had not eloped with Murdock and that her husband had attempt ed reconciliation and that she had taken a week to think over the mat ter. After a week in New York, Mur dock pretended to sail for Texas and said he was going to have a vaca tion. He denied the elopement story as earnestly as did Mrs. Edey. But before tho vessel left the dock he jumped from the gangplank and re joined Mrs. Edey, who was walting for him. Mrs. Edey immediately gave out a statement ia which she said that by .mutual agreement she and Murdock were going to Texas, chaperoned by Mrs. Edey's aunt. Seven days later came the announcement that Mrs. Edey was going back home. What transpired in the setting for the final act of the play will never bo known, unless there are letters that have been left behind. Murdock, the liveryman, had evidently passed out from the Hst of active players, though he may have been a memory of tho former scenes, and that mem ory may have caused the tragic end ing to-day. Mrs. Murdock had ceas ed also to be among tho players. When the curtain raised Thursday on the final act only thc millionaire broker and his wife retained their original parts, and the last act of death was fought out between them alone. If fate had not decreed that the play should end In secret, the world might know what caused the murder and suicide. Mrs. Edey wras killed before she could summon help. Edey died with out regaining consciousness and car ried his story to tho grave. The Insurance department of South Carolina has collected and turned over to the State Treasurer $177,109.61.
