On la?t Thursday morning fire partially destroyed the lA>ui? building on Kusaell and Middleton streets in Orangeburg. The damage is estimated at about $75,000 with about $35,000 insurance. When the debris was being cleared from the roof o/ the building later on in the day, Arthur Oswald, employed by the city Of Orangeburg as electrician, and who was standing on u ladder at the top of the building, slipped from the ladder.

F rank Pope, alias Frank Lee, was ai rested in Marion last week and while in jail a fellow prisoner recognised him as a man wanted in Raleigh serving an eighteen year sentence for murder in North Carolina.

A monster still?-a mammoth stearn-operated affair with a capacity of one hundred gallons per hour -was captured F riday by Orangeburg county officers in Santee river swamp on the Clarendon county side of the river behind a cane brake, which hid the still from view. Federal prohibition officers at Florence, raiding in a section known as the "Neck," destroyed the largest distilling plant ever found in that section. I he still was found on lands said to be under the control of Isaac A- Keels and Kzra Keels. It is estimated that the investment represented something like $15,000 or $20,000.

Too Hot For This Disagreement over a business transaction is said to have caused a personal difficulty between two prominent business men, Messrs. B. G. Sanders and L. A. Kirkland, Wednesday morning. The affair took place at the corner of Broad and DeKalb [streets and was witnessed by quite a number of people. Bystanders separated the two men before many licks passed and we learn that the affair has been amicably settled. Returning to Northern Home Mr. and Mr,. J. w.

M. Limebouse, sheriff of Dorchester couirty J ml other persons connected with the heriff's office, W. B. Tarkington, editor of the Dorchester Kagle, a weekly newspaper published here, was released in bail of $1,000 late tonight. He was arrested yesterday. The editor is to appear at the next term of the court of'general sessions for Dorchester county. The warrant was sworn out by Sheriff Limehouse, who today said he would also bring a civil suit, asking damages of $60,000 agumst the persons responsible for the charges printed in the Kagle. Tarkington, through the columns of his paper, had criticized Sheriff Limehouse. The editorial upqn which the warrant was based appeared in yesterday's issue of the paper, concerned the disposition of a seized still. Sheriff Limehouse states that the still is now in th<* jail, that it has been the^e ever since the raid. Sheriff Limehouse is serving his fourth four-year term as sheriff of Dorchester county and is well-known throughout the state. Tarkington came to St. George about two years ago (as a printer in the office of M. P. Felder, who was then editor of the Kagle. A short time thereafter Felder disposed of the paper and Tarkington's name appeared at the head of the editorial page as editor, although, it is said, according to the records in the office of the clerk of court, he is not the owner. He is said to have come originally from North Carolina. A baby weighing fourteen ounces born at Victoria, Australia, in 1906, is now the mother of two lusty babies. On Visit to Brevard M rs. L. H.
