Mrs. Buckheit Burned to Oeeth.
FivORKNCK. Dec. 2. Shortly
after 2 o’clock this afternoon
there occured one of the most
shocking accidents that , v r
happened in this city and in
which Mrs J E Buckheit, wife
of Mr Charles A Buckheit,
lost her life bv heintr roasted
alive
The facts are: \lr. Buckheit,
the husband of tha deceased
lady, runs a bakery and restau
rant at the southeast corner
of Evans street and Railroad
avenue on one of the most fre-1
quented streets of the city. !
Adjoining Ins store", to the rear, ‘
is his four-room dwelling, where
he and his family reside. Mrs.
Buckheit was in Ihe t tore short
ly before the usual dinner hour
anti asked her husband what
ditl he want for dinner, as she
was feeling badly and did not
care about worrying too much
A HERO OF THE MERRlMAO.
Death of Joseph Rnldock-The only
Charlestonian who Served on the Fa
m jus Con ederale Ironclad.
Another old Confederate vete
ran has answered his last roll
call and crossed the river to
join his comrades. Joseph Rid
d-ek was born in New Jersey
and came to Charleston in his
boyhood, where he was educat-
• <1 at the school of the vener
• ole schoolmaster Thayer. He
alter wards learned the gasfit-
ting and plumber’s trade, and
at the breaking out of the war
was employed at the Charleston
Das Company’s works, and wat
also vice president of the Pal
metto b ire Engine Company, of
the old volunteer fire depart
ment, which would have ex-
|etnpted hitr. from army duty;
but, actuated by a patriotic

Buckheit was found lying flat
on her back on the floor with
all Iter clothes and hair burned
off and her body a mass of
charred and blackened flesh and
life totally extinct. The alarm
of fire was given and by
this time a large crowd had
collected about the house and
had subdued the flames.
Just how the fire started is
not and will probably never be
known, but the supposition is
that she having gone in the
room to rest for awhile probab
ly fell asleep and a coal from
the fireplace which was aglow
had popped out on the feather
bed on which she lay and had
burned her so badly before she
awoke that she was unconcious
after awakening. She was,
therefore, unable to either find
the door of exit or even to
scream. This horrible occur
rence is a sad one, indeed, in
as much as help was so near
could she have but screamed
once.
Mrs. Buckheit leaves a hus
band and several small children,
the youngest of which is an in
fant. The funeral services will
be held from her late residence
at 10 o’clock Tuesday morning
and the interment will be made
in Mount Hope Cemetery.
Tobacco as a Disinfectant.
Tobacco has long been claim
ed by its devotees to be a most
ellicient disinfectant, but de
fenders of the smoking habit,
says Harper's Weekly, fail to
make use of the most powerful
arguments in its favor. Hither
to the most that has been claim
ed in favor of smoking was a
certain subtle, beneficial effect
on the digestion and soothing
effect on the nerves.
It has been learned recently
from the report of investiga
tions of the effect of tobacco
during the epidemic of cholera
at Hamburg, that cholera mi
crobes could not exist in the
mouths of smokers.
There are no living bacteria,
after twenty-four hours, in ci
gars made up with water con
taining 1,500,000 cholera germs
to the cubic inch. There were
no traces of microbes to be
found in any of the cigars
manufactured at Hamburg in
the time of the epidemic. The
microbes die in a half or two
hours’ exposure to smoke of
Brazil, Sumatra or Havana to
bacco. The smoke of any cigar
kills the microbes. Experiments
show that in five minutes after
beginning to smoke the mic-
lobes in the mouth are
killed. Another fact estab
lished is that none of the
persons employed in the tobacco
factories at Hamburg contract
clnlera.

from the infantry were called

these Joseph Riddock was one

After the war he resumed the
