You Leave Town, Cam REME lis Space Next \ POOR FOOLISH GIRL. Fooled and Deserted by a Slick Tongued Scoundrel. The Greenville Daily Piedmont says one of the most pathetic cases that the police o^that city have had to deal with in some time was that of the arrest of a beautiful young lady of Prosperity, who is said to have been a graduate of the G. F. C., and who left her home in Prosperity several days ago. Here is the sad story as told by the Piedmont: "It is said she had gone to a num ber of cities in this section "with a traveling man, who had persuaded the pretty young girl to leave home, promising to marry her. After following the traveling man for several days and he failing to marry her, the young girl came to Greenville. While there the police received the information to arrest the young girl and hold her until the arrival of her parents. "The officers found tne giri ana i notified her parents of her arrest. They came to Greenville and carried I her back to Prosperity. The young lady is a handsome girl, with very attractive manners and well-educated. The parents of the young girl are heart-broken over the sad occurI rence and weore surprised at her leayj ing home." Removing the Maine. As much of the wrecked battleship "Maine" as available funds will permit will be removed or prepared for removal from Havana harbor, and then the mammoth cofferdam, surrounding the ruins, will be refilled with water to await an additional appropriation by congress to finish the raising preparations. Congress failed to act on the president's request for an additional $250,000,' and the money on hand will probably be expended in a month or two more. Because of the lack of funds even the funeral services over the recovered remains of the dead, and the erection in Arlington National cemetery of the mast of the ill-fated vessel as a monument to them must be postponed. The badly wrecked forward part of the vessel, or about two-thirds of it, will be cut down to the levels already reached by pumpage, then taken out and dumped into deep water outside Havana harbor. A small cofferdam will be built inside the main cofferdam to a depth of about forty feet around the forward part in order to extricate the rest of it later. The one-third afterportion of the vessel, it is believed, can be floated.

Scranton, Sept. 30.?The new ginnery, cotton press, rice mill and building of Mr. J. C. Lynch, who lives about six miles from town, were burned to the ground last night at about 10 o'clock. Th"e machinery - - - U -11 J J naa oeen in operation an uuy auu was ginning a bale of cotton belonging to Mr. A. A. Matthews when the fire was discovered emerging from the condenser. Before anything could be done the ^ptire building was in flames. This plant was situated about two 1 and a half miles from Mr. Lynch's residence at his old water mill, the ginnery beiiig run by water power. It is quite certain that matches were in the cotton and was the cause of the fire. This machinery was all new and modern, having a capacity of 30 to 40 bales per day. It is claimed the loss will be' about $5,000, and no insurance. The grist and flour mill is situated only a few feet distance, --J '* Voril fi O-Vl tl T1 & that fhifi (1LLU 11 was Ujr uaiu u^uw>ua was saved from the flames.' Mr. Wiley Bass, the manager of | the plant, during the fire fell into the mill pond, of water a^depth of 30 feet, and came near being drown- { ed, but through the assistance of A. J j A. Matthews was brought to land and medical aid at once summoned. Mr. Bass is resting fairly well to-day. This water mill is one of the best known water mills in the eastern part of the State, and the accident is regretted by all. Shoots Brieve, Then Himself. Cordele, Ga., Sept. 17.?J. T.
