W. E. Smith’s residence, on the corner of Park and Prior streets, was burned down Sunday night. The fire was dis covered a few minutes after 3 o’clock a. m. Parts of the building were then fall ing in, and only a few articles could be taken from it. In fact little Candler Smith came near being burned up, as fragments of burning timbers were fall ing around him when Irs father awoke and dashed into the room where the little fellow was sleeping and rescued him. Howard Smith escaped bare-footed and in his shirt-sleeves. Wbat time was left after the family had been rescued was devoted to removing things from the front rooms, which were the last to burn, as the fire started in the kitchen. Only a few articles were saved and the loss falls heavily on Mr. Smith. His house cost him, he says, $1,817, and was as good as new. The house was insured for SI,OOO and the furniture for SSOO. The insurance on both house and furni ture would nothing like rebuild the house at the present price of material. Besides bis losses on the house and ♦urnislire a new piano, which was not insured, was burned. The origin of the fire is unknown. Mr. Smith was up twice during the night, the last time at 1 o’clock. There was no sign of a fire then, but two hours later the building was enveloped in flames. Mr. Smith cannot but believe that it was the work of an incendiary, as he passed the kitchen when he was up and could have detected the fire had it been burn ing then. The nearest water plug was at Dr. Dixon’s corner, on Race street, several blocks away, and it required 1,400 feet of hose to reach the fire. The building was so far gone, however, that the firemen could do nothing toward saving it. The Best in the World. We believe Chamberlain’s Cough Rem edy is the best in the world.

The Hounds Will Catch ’Em. Without Fault or Confusion They Fol* low the Steps of a Criminal. Last Thursday night Mrs. M. E. Allen was fearfully frightened by some one_ throwing a brick-bat at her while -she was in the stove-room preparing supper. Anna colored, alias Anna Brown, was brought before Esquire Lo den Saturday afternoon and will be held for the crime until the next term of the city court. Her bond was fixed at SIOO, and on her failure to make it she was committed to jail. Mr. and Mrs. Allen live at the Oscar Human place on Oak street. Mr. Allen has au art gallery in a can yas tent on Main street. It was about 9 o’clock when the attempted assault was com mitted. Mr. Allen had not returned home from his day’s work and Mrs. Al len was preparing supper. She had just returned from the yard with some stove wood in her hands and bad put some in the stove and had lighted a match, when the missel was burled at her and came crashing through the window. The brick struck the window sash, shattered the glass and passed very close to Mrs. Alleu. The frightened woman ran to the mantel, secured a pistol, which lay thereon, and fired it to scare the outlaw away from the premises. She looked, but did nor see anybody. Policeman Bagwell was near by, beard the shattered glass and ran down the street in the direction of the sound. He saw Anna Anderson coming from the di rection of the rear of the house, and saw her come through the fence into the street, known as the pasture fence, just above the house. He saw her stoop down for something, which he thought was her bonnet, but she said it was her keys. The policeman asked her some questions and let her pass on, as he did uot then know what caused the shooting. After finding out what had happened from Mrs. Allen he suspected the An derson woman. He sent for W. E. Smith and his blood hounds. It was about an hour and a half before they ar rived. A woman’s tracks were found within eight feet of the window and the dogs were turned loose. The blood hounds immediately struck the trail and followed it through the pasture and out to the street where Mr. Bagwell saw the woman crawl through the fence. The dogs went through at the same spot and followed her home, which is near Smith’s wagon yard. The woman had there had a fight with Ella Grisson, who lives in the same house, and had again left home. The hounds again struck her trail and passed through Looper’s wagon yard, thence down behind the Presbyterian ebureb, across to the G. J. & S. railroad yards, and from the railroad yards to the public square and back down by the Ea gle office to a vacant lot behind a cabin ntxt door to Mos?. There thejt overtook their game and bayed her. She was then taken in charge by Policeman Bagwell and locked up for the night. On her head was a deep gash and several bruises. She explained them by saying that she and Ella Grisson had a fight at their house. Ella Grisson was then ar rested and locked up. Warrants were made out against them for fighting, and Friday afternoon they plead guilty be fore Mayor Mitchell and were fined $1 and costs each. Some one paid Anna Anderson’s fine and she was released but was arrested Saturday morning by Bailiff Lathem and put in jail. At four o’clock Saturday af ternoon she was given a preliminary hearing before Justice Loden. Several witnesses were examined and some sen sational testimony was brought out. City Solicitor Johnson was on hand and examined the witnesses and succeeded in weaving a very strong chain of circum stantial evidence around the woman. After the evidence was closed she made a statement which did her but little good, and which Mr. Johnson pronounced a confession, as he asked for a S3OO bond for her. Justice Loden thought a SIOO bond would hold her and so fixed it at that figure. Remarkable Cure of Rheumatism. Kenna, Jackson Co., W. Va. About three years ago my wife had an attack of rheumatism which confined her to her bed for over a month and rendered her unable to walk a step without ance, her limbs being swollen to double their normal size. Mr. S. Maddox in sisted on my using Chamberlain’s Pain Balm. I purchased a fifty-cent bottle and used it according to the directions and the next morning she walked to breakfast without assistance in any man ner, and she has not had a similar attack since.—A.

The rebuilding of Brown’s Bridge by Hall and Forsyth counties has been con templated for some time and will be dis cussed at the next regular meeting of the County Board of Commissioners, on the 9th instant, when bids for both wood and iron bridges will be received and opened. This meeting will be held next Monday. The commissioners went to the old bridge site last Friday to meet Ordinary Hawkins of Forsyth county, but Mr. Hawkins did not meet them, but sent Sam Allen, Clerk of the Superior Court, in bis stead. Mr. Allen stated to our commissioners that a majority of the people of Forsyth county wanted the bridge, and as Hall county wants it, noth ing stands in the way of its being rebuilt. A represpntative of an iron bridge works was on the grounds and will send in a bid from his concern. Let us have the bridge by all means, and at the earliest possible period. The good people of both counties want free passage from one county to the other, and we are glad our public servants ai e progressive men who are always ready to do that which will redound to the public good.

On the 20th of March Represen tative Hay of Virginia tiled the re port of the House Committee on Military Affairs on the bill estab lishing a national battlefield memo rial park of 6,000 acres on the sites of the battles of Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville, the Wilderness, and Spottsylvania Court House. The report states that more men were here engaged than in any bat tle in the world’s history—aggre gating at least 500,000 —with losses in killed and -wounded on both sides amounting to 129,838, and in sight of the city were born Washington, Monroe, Jefferson, Madison, the Lees of both the Revolutionary and Civil wars, and Zachary Taylor. The battle of Fredericksburg was fought Dec. 13, 1862. The two armies numbered 180,000 men, but not all were engaged. The whole loss was 10,600 men. The battle of Chancellorsville was fought 1863, May 2-3, and by the same men who fought at Fredericksburg, with the addition of some recruits to fill the depleted ranks. The loss on both sides amounted to about 25,000. The battles of the Wilderness and Spottsylvania Court House were fought in the same campaign, 1864, and by the same armies. The total number engaged was 190,00*0 men, and the loss was 60,000 to both armies. The total number of men engaged in the four battles named did not exceed 425,000, and the total loss was not over 75,000. It is said that Attila had 700,000 at the battle of Chalons, and the allies under JEtius and Theodoric at least 500,000; 162,000, some say 300,000, were killed and wounded. Timour was at the head of 800,000 and Bajazet had 400,000 at the bat tle near Angora. The Allies brought 300,000 men to the encounter at Leipsic and Napoleon had 175,000; 50,000 were lost. At Eylan the Allies lost 25,000 and the French 20,000. Over 500,000 men were engaged in the two last named bat tles and 90,000 were lost. In regard to the birthplaces of the distinguished Americans named, Washington, the Lees, and Monroe were born in Westmoreland county, miles eaßK_of Fredericks burg. Madison was born near King George Court House, 25 miles east. Jefferson was born in Albemarle, northwest of Fredericksburg some 60 miles, and Zachary Taylor -was born in Orange county, 60 miles west. Such a report is an unpardonable blunder, and misleading to those whose information is largely derived from newspapers. W. O. Petty. Gainesville, March 27, 1900. Spain’s Greatest Need. Mr. R. P.

Grant, on Thursday evening last, under the aus pices of the Alkahest Lyceum. It would be hard to find words to describe the two hours steady flow of beautiful things to which the audience were treated. The doctor is a master of enteitainment, and all were astonished to find the length of time they had leaned forward in per fect interest to enjoy every word. It was a charm just to listen to the musical intonations of voice, while the brilliant ideas, keen insight into life, vivid and tragic portrayal of experience, made a combination never to bo forgot ten. All who were present could but feel sorry for all who were absent. Dr. Grant will not want for room if ever he should favor us again with a lec ture. One man was heard to say, if he could have heard that lecture when be was seventeen it would have been worth a million dollars to him. The Lyceum Course is now an assured success, sufficient amount being paid in to carry it through, and if tie high stan dard set by Dr. Grant last Thursday night is sustained the people of Gaines ville will have cause to thank those who have succeeded in creating the Alkahest Lyceum, and bringing here the choicest talent, usually only heard in the largest cities.

General Joubert, commander-in chief of the Boer forces, died at Pretoria last Tuesday from the ef fects of a wound received during the siege of Ladysmith. He was 69 years old, a great general, and a strong pillar in the Transvaal. The Boers have now lost their two greatest commanders in Joubert and Cronje, but others as good will come to the front. General Louis Botha has been appointed comman der-in-chief. President Kruger has, through President McKinley, asked England for a cessation of the war on the basis of the independence of the Transvaal and the Orange Free State. England refused to grant this, and the war proceeds. The army of Lord Roberts has taken possession of Bloemfontein, capital of the Orange Free State. President Steyn fled with the archives. Before reaching Bloemfontein the British found 300 Boers intrenched in the hills. He ran them out and captured the hills, but it took him all day to do it, with his army of 50,000 men. The British army charged three successive times, but were each time beaten back and the soldiers relieved by fresh men. At dark the Boers left, because they could no longer see to shoot. The British lost 383 men in the fight. It made Lord Roberts as mad as a wet hen to think he had bellowsed his army in capturing a few gullies, and he sent a very salty report to his government that night in which he accused the Boers of all sorts of ungentlemanly conduct. He seemed to think 300 men had no business resisting 50,000, knowing that it would do no good in the long run. Lord Roberts is now resting-up from the little fracas, and gathering an immense army to march on Pre toria, capital of the Transvaal, and unless all signs fail there is walking ahead of him. Pretoria is surroun ded by mountains and canyons, with a net-work of guns and mines, and there will be a large and howling occasion when his lordship gets in ■among them. A regiment of 2,000 women has enlisted for <lie defense of the city, and it is said a Trans vaal woman can shoot as well as a man. There seems no sign of foreign intervention. Both Russia and France are very quiet. But Eng land is entirely convinced that there is danger. She thinks France could successfully attack Ireland and meet with welcome rather than resistance from that unfortunate people who have borne a century of wrongs and been reduced almost to exile by oppression by the British govern ment. Hence the Queen’s decision to shortly visit Ireland, for the first time since she was a young woman, and hence the wearing of the'Sham rock on St. Patrick’s day all over England. The Irish will probably see in all this an effort to honey - fugle them into licking the hand that has chastised them and will chastise them again when the trou ble blows over. That Kruger asked for peace is no sign that he is giving up. It was only to force England to declare before the world her intention to take away the liberties of the two republics. In this he succeeded. In far away Africa to-day Liberty lies bleeding, crushed and being crushed by the power of a merceless giant. And all the world looking on!

The Level-Headed Never Lose Their Nerve. Worry is the twin sister of ner vousness. Neither should ever enter into the daily life of any one. God, in His all-wise providence, put the head of a human being on top, that all beneath it might be sub servient to it. There is something wrong above the eyes, in the region of the will power, when one becomes nervous in the sense of excitability. “Know thyself” is good; control thyself is better. Worry and ex citement never aided any one. Any fool can get along when everything is all right, but it takes a wise man, a level-headed man, to get along and not worry nor become nervous when everything is all wrong.— April Ladies’ Home Keep your blood pure and your stomach and digestive organs in a healthy condition by taking Hood’s Sarsaparilla and you will be WELL.
