BIG FIRE AT CLIO.
:The Losses Said Tr Reach Near
$100,000
On Thursday night of last
week about 8.30, the large De
arfcment store of Mr. Emanuel
ternberger, was burned, also
the residences of Mr. George R.
Welch and Mrs Chamness. A
rough estimate foots the losses
at about 100,000, with some in
surance. The origin is .still a
mystery.
THE TRUTH
It is remarkable what incorrect in
fluences or uncharitable conclusion?
may sometimes bo drawn from wrong
premises In our last issue we took
occasion to compliment our fellow
towoBman, Mr. D. M. D. McLeod. Thi?
he richly deserved, but wo are afraid
that in doing so we may have given
ground to the suspicious or the uniu*
formed to do nn injustice to one of our
njpst efficient, energetic mid nccom
raodating couuty officials. Incident
ally we mentioned tho fact that Mr
McLeod was engaged in recording a
paper bearing dato of li)02. Such was
the fact but the paper referred to was
one in an action commenced in thai
year but only recently disposed of,
hence, under the law, could not he en
tered on the records until now.
Tho reason for Mr. McLeod working
so many hours wns characteristic of
our ever obliging, accommodating <uid
po ite Clerk of Court A nun resident
party was anxious lo have papcts re
corded and returned to him by the
earliest ninil practicable. Mr. Drake,
as always anxious to comply with un
reasonable request in the performance
ot his efficient duties, requested Mr
McLeod to <lo a little extra work in
obliging this gentlemen, and Mr. Mc
Leod cheerfully acquiesced. Such ar?
the facts. In pnssin ; a com p) i men I
on Mr. McLeod, therefore, to which he
was justly entitled, we indirectly bu
necetsarily complimented our Clerk,
for it was his devotion to the prompt
and efficient performance of his official
duties that gave lise to tho local.

Mr. Editor;-As I have not written
anything about the hail storm which
assed through our section on the loth,
will now pen a lew lines. '
On Saturday alter thc storm I passed
through the hail stricken section, and
thought then there was little or no
chance only to plant over. To-day I
passed through the same territory and
noted some bright changes. Some of
thc crops are putting lorin Under leaves
while others were slow in recovering
from the rough treatment.
The prospects of Messrs T. P. Odom,
Edward Odom and J. McB Hurley seem
ed to be the gloomiest. The crops ol
English Peel, Barrington, Mclnnis and
E. W. Odom show signs ot new life.
I did not see the crops ot Mrs. Bettie
Odom, J. T. Odom, John Odom. L J.
Quick, P. E. Odom and Dudley Odom
on this trip, but presume they are put
ting on new lile.
Mr. Alex Moore and others have
planted some ol their crops over. It is to
he hoped that the cotton will come out
even yet and make a lair yield. Don't
ijct out ot heart boys, all will be well
that ends well.
Your correspondent had the pleasure
ot entertaining one of our young mer
chants during that hail storm one mile
up crooked creek, which made us teel
we would rather have been at home. 1
proposed we should wait until the worst
was over. After waiting some io or 15
minutes we decided we had better risk
our chances out on dry land. So we
turned our boat homeward bound, and
it you could have been anywhere on the
hank you would havo thought a steam
hoat was coming down the creek. Alter
we had gotten out to the opening we de?
cided quickly to get to the edge is possi
ble, as a cyclone, as we thought was
about on us. I said to my friend, "Well
Billy boy, this is our only chance to get
to land as quick as possible." We oared
our boot as close as wc could which
was '?o yards, as the water was low.
1 Now for the woods Bill." So Bill walk
d out on thc moss as light as a duck,
and looked back to see how I was get?,
ting along. Bill can tell you the way I
came out. Anyhow we reached land in
time to put up a good run ol haifa mile,
where we reached shelter and enjoyed
ourselves in a hearty laugh at each mis
fortune.
Rill ran so last he tore up his new
umbrella, ? told him he ought to iet it
down. He said he would il he had
thought ol it Well. I am glad you didn't
think ol it Bill, because I could sorter
keep up until your umbrella turned
backwards, then you lett me too tar.
When I reached the shelter I discov
ered Bill was looking through the top
01 his hat. ..Hello, Bill, you look sorter
;,urple; What's the matter?" "I am sor
ter cold now, and what is the matter
with you? Your lace looks kinder spot
ted " "Don't know without its mud."
'Well, I never heard ol a man getting
in the mire and throwing mud in his
lace getting out bet?re." "Well. I don't
know Bill, perhaps 1 did; but, I rather
think you did that when you passed me.
How, hom your shoe heels.
I rememl.er now since you spoke of
mud 1 had to shut my eyes, just about
thc time you passed by me 1 thought at
the lime it was hail stones pcltering me
in the face, but I noticed it all stopped
when you got off a little distance. So
you see that accounts tor ihe mud in
my face Well, what about mud on your
hack? Well, I hardly know. I wouldn'ts

That's all right. I am not muddy, and
not as wet as you are.
Well, Bill, we will compromise now,
hy consoling each other. You are sorry
lor me lor hcing so wet and muddy, and
running ami leaving me you say. "Yes
Ebb," Well Bill, 1 am sorry tor you tor
running, leaving me too, and running
.0 last that you tore up your new um.
irella and run through the top ol your
tat,
Bbb I didn't run through the top of
ny hat.
Well, you will have to explain satis
actory, or I will tell it that way.
Well, hold on Ebb. I think I can ex
ilain it all O. K. You sec when I.was
?1Wt?-!?g--.Lhr^Uii^-hS3S?' woods, the hail
md rain was blinding me so I could not
ec good, Iran under some blackjack
imLs and one of the hooks ol my "bob"
:aught a limb that pulled the end ol the
)ole backwards, and as 1 passed under
he limb one ol the other hooks ol the
job caught the crown of my hat, and I
hinking the limb was pulling my hat off
'. quickly caught the rim ot my hat and
i.asscd on, leaving the crown of my hat
Arith the hob to the limb. Don't you re
nember 1 told you I had to stop there
n Ihe woods? Well, that was what I
itopped tor, to get my hat and bob.
Well, Bill, what are you going to pay
ne to stop this hail storm affair right
tere? Well, Kb, you are the one that
viii have to pay me, il you don't I am
ure to tell about your getting so scared
md what you said, so you better let up
low.
All O. K. Bill. I will keep mute il yon
viii. Hood, that settles it. So the hail
tomi passed and left Bill and I wet and
old, and we pulled out for home with
s much glee as two school boys.
