Lexington, May 14.-Mrs. Eliza Shoaly, relict of tho late James Shoa ly, met a horrible death on Tuosday last at her home, about a mile south of the little town of Summit, when her clothing caught Uro from a pipe, which she was smoking or which she was about to light from a match. Mrs. Shcaly, 86 years old, and "Aunt" Katherine Alowine, about the same ago, lived together in their little home. Late in thc afternoon, according to tho story reaching hore, thc two wero sitting on the porch together. Mrs. Shcaly was smoking her pipe, and so was "Aunt" Kate. As quick as a flash, "Aunt" Kate said, the clothing of Mrs. Shealy be came ignited. Nobody was near but the two old women, and Aunt Kate endeavored to put out the flames, wlr.ch were rapidly eating the body of her life-long companion, and in her efforts to do so her own clothing caught, and instead of assisting her companion, "Aunt" Kate had to di rect her efforts in an endeavor to save herself from meeting a similar fate, and slie barely saved her lifo, she, too, having been badly burned, it is said, before sho managed to stop the fire. Tho two women lived alone, and nearby neighbors say that their screams, especially tho screams of the dying woman, wore pitiful. Neigh bors rushed In and a physician was summoned. Mrs. Shealy's clothing was entirely consumed and hor inju ries wero so severe that doath came a short while later. Mrs. Shealy is survived by four children, three daughters and ono son, as follows: Mrs. \V. L, Kawl, of Batesburg; Mrs. J. A. Sligh, of Sum mit; Mrs. Hilen Steele, of Brook land, and Samuel Shealy, of near Summit. The remains wore laid to rest Wednesday in tho family bury ing ground near Summit. There is an average of about 350 births and 70 deaths a day in London. The Belgians are tho greatest po tato eaters in tho world, and the I rieh, come second.
