FIRE MONDAY NIGHT.
On Monday night ab< ut 1 o'clock
the large barn of Mr. <• J. John
ston, who lives in the Western part
of town, was discovered ablaze
with fire, and the roof almost
ready to fall in. The alarm was
given and a large number of peo
ple quickly responded, but could
do nothing, and the building and
its contents were totally destroy
ed, together with a large fattening
hog, which was nicely baked
in his pen beside the barn. In
the barn was about 200 bushels of
corn, 2000 bundles of fodder,
4000 pounds of cotton seed hulls,
and several sacks oi meal.
Fortunately the wind was in
such direction as to cause the
forked fiames which leaped out in
great fury from the hugh mass of
burning fodder and miss
the new and handsome dwelling
of Mr. Johnston only a short dis

It is not kn« wu how the fire
originated, but it is thought that

from the barn to the woods.
