" tried to get in the room to extinguish the fire but found it impossible to get in without a key. Presently, however, the door was broken down, and the flames were seen crawling up the walls and licking the ceiling with their fiery tongues. It was too late for buckets ol ""naitf, and a messenger was sent to sound the fire alarm. Meantime the cry of fire was raised in the house, and the halls of the second floor were in a few minutes filled with frightened, stupefied, half-clad people, throwing open the doors, and otherwise clearing the path of the fiery element Those who escaped say that in a space ol - time almost incredibly short the smoke had filled the whole house, and the flames made their way through the thin wood-work partitions with fearful rapidity. The Fire Department, notwithstanding the extreme cold, was on the ground with remarkable prompt ness, but the water could not be made sc speedily available. In less than half an houi fire was observed on every one of the five floors, and the passages were choking with hot air and almost impalpable ashes. The scene was now one of indescribable terror. Men, women, and children were in the burning building, and all who were awake - ? were striving to get out. With fire on every side and smoae?blinding, suffocating smoke? penetrating evervwhere, this was no easy task f .1 A 1_1_ il. . 10 tnose not morougmy acquaiuieu witn int landmarks. The screams and prayers of the panic-struck terrified the self-possessed; the weak were either trampled under foot on the narrow stairs or sank where they stood paralyzed by fear, waiting for relief. Fortunately, however, there were those within who retained their presence of mind, and those withi?out halAjenough to risk the danger to save a human life. So far as is known, all who left their rooms found mean? to escape, though with life alone; and there was no woman's , cry for help or infant's wail of terror that did not bring a man to the relief. Most of those who lost their lives were awaked by finding the flames in their rooms, or remained in the vain hope of saving also their property. The floors began to fall, and all in the building then could not but perish. A strong wind swept the flames westward, and the sparks and ashes flew all over the --A?

Wolfdecke's cigar store and Anderson's tin and stove depot were then fired, and only the constant play of the engines upon the building on the corner of Main and 9th streets, known as Bosher's Hall, and under which was the grocery and liquor store of W. D. Blair & Co., saved it from following suit. On 8th street the old framed building in the rear of the Spotswood, and belong. ing to the concern, was partially destroyed. At 5 o'clock the fire was stayed. The loss of property by the fire is estimated at $300,000, and among the known victims are Capt. S. C. Hines, of Caswell county, N.

C., MBBk WOULD announce to the public that be has taken a thorough course ' ' in the Baltimore College of Dental Surgery, where he had an opportunity of studying DENTISTRY in all its branches, and is now permanently located in Chester, prepared to do all operations pertaining to the profession, on the most improved principles. Work in MECHANICAL DENTISTRY *far superior to any heretofore offered. Being satisfied that there Is now a greater demand for ARTIFICIAL TEETH than ever before known, he has secured and is the only Dentist who has a right to use Dr. Stuck's new method of VULCANITE PLATE, in Chester. York and Fairfield counties, (having purchased the exclusive right) a method highly recommended by the most eminent Dentists in the United States, as the BEST NOW KNOWN. Therefore, he would say to all those that want the best and cheapest, and those who are wearing the old-fashioned thick, clumsy and uncomfortable plate, should dispense with them, and get the new and beautiful STUCK PLATE, as they will find it much more comfortable, as well as cheaper and more durable?it being elastic and not liaole to break. A plate, by this method, is a thing of beauty and durability, and is sure to be liar preferable to the old style rubber plate. A trial Is all that is asked. His work will speak for itself. He can be consulted at Rock Hill, on the second Tuesday and Wednesday, and at Winnsboro', the third Tuesday and Wednesday of each month, and at Chester every Friday and Saturday, and on all public days.
