SOUTH CAROLINA FED CATTLE. I
Solid Trainload Sliipped from Fair- T
fax to Baltimore.
Fairfax, March 9.?Gwynn & Middleton,
of Columbia, shipped a solid si
train load of Soutnern ieu came via i u
r the Seaboard Air Line Railway from j si
this city yesterday to Baltimore. The ! o
train consisted of ten cars, which the j b
railroad promised to give preferred f b,
movement and hopes to have them in $
Baltimore long before the first feed is
limit expires. They were beautiful Si
animals, fed by Messrs. G. D. San- J<
ders, N. B. Loadholt and F. M. S<
Young, who will have twenty or more d?
cars in the next week or ten days. w
Feeding cattle is profitable and
proves that South Carolina can do a]
other things and be successful with- C
out raising cotton. d;
FIRE RAGING IN EHRHARDT. J*

? Ehrhardt, March 9.?Fire origin- s<
ating late to-night in the lumber tl

Company, on the outskirts of the te
town, destroyed the entire plant, w
with the exception of the saw mill, a

seed and hulls and a number of bales ji
of cotton on the Atlantic Coast Line
platform. At 2 o'clock a strong oi
northeast wind is blowing and if it pi
continues from this direction there is le
v a chance that the limit of the damage d<
has been reached. However, should C;
the wind shift to the east or south- sc
east there will be little chance for ai
the town, as most of the houses are d<
frame buildings and right in line for h<
the flames. A wide street is now the w
salvation of both the residence and pi
business portions of the town. m
It is not known how the flames ai
originated, but the fire was discovery
ed in the Hacker Lumber Company's
plant, and its progress could not be b(
stayed by the unorganized bucket of
brigade. The plant is owned by a te
Charleston firm, and is thought to be in
valued at about $75,000. The loss P1
to the Carolina Gin Company is prob- ^
ably $3,000. The offices, lumber
\ sheds all the dry kilns of the Hacker b'
plant have been completely destroy- in
\ ed; there is yet a chance to save the a*
saw mill.
Engineer Miller, of the^ Atlantic
Coast Line, has just made a most dar- ac
- * - * - J-J.- of
ing run witn nis engine muu mc sm- -ing
and saved six or eight freight
cars loaded with merchandise. The
? Atlantic Coast Line platforms, to- th
gether with a number of bales of sc
cotton, were burned, but the station
is safe thus far.
At a little after 2 o'clock there ap- ^
pears to be a probability that the
flames can be confined to the buildings
now burning.

Oconee Woman Kills Herself. w
gi
Walhalla, March 9.?Mrs. Teague, w
wife of William Teague, committed dj
suicide at the home of B. D. Isbell, tt
about two miles west of Walhalla, sc
Friday evening about 6 o'clock, using iE
a shotgun. It seems that the act was th
deliberately planned. She removed
one shoe and stocking, leaving her p(
foot entirely free, and with her toe re
pulled the trigger of the gun, sending w
> a load of shot into her abdomen and 3{
breast, resulting in almost instant b(
death. tb
It is stated that the woman had for
some time showed signs of a disordered
mind. Her husband was a tenant
of Mr. Isbell's place and at the
time of the suicide they were occu,
pying rooms at Mr. Isbell's house.
Mrs. Teague was about 4 7 years of ^
age. Until lately they had lived in
Walhalla, moving to Mr. Isbell's a V1
few months ago. ^

There is no bitterness.
