Tiftop, Ga., Jan. 15.—Despite the utmost efforts of anxious relatives and friends, no trace has yet been obtained of Mr. Walter 8. Warned, the cashier of the Bank of Adel, since his disappearance last Thursday morning. lie had the thorough confidence of his employers and the community, and was probably the youngest bank cashier in the slate, being only 20 years of a£e. He be gan work as assistant l>ookheeper in the Bank of Tifton about three years ago, and soon became so proficient in his worx that when the branch bank at Adel was organized during the past year, he was given the cashier's place, and performed his duties with marked ability. During the fall season he has had a very heavy run of work, and was often seen working on his books until 1 or 2 o’clock in the morning. He felt keenly the responsibility of his position, and was zealous in the performance of his duties. It is thought that overwork, added to ill health, caused a temporary derangement of his mind, as there appears to be no other possible explanation of his disap pearance. His cash is all intact, and his books balance to a cent. A slight clew was followed to Macon by his brother-in-law, Capt. W. T. Har grett, but no further trace of him could be found there. He is 20 years of age, weighs about 160 pounds, is 5 feet 10 inches high, has blue eyes, heavy, dark auburn hair, fresh, fair complexion, with slight trace of freckles. many cases of smallpox. lint Few of Them Are in the Town of Greensboro, X.

Valdosta, Ga., Jan. 15.—Fire destroyed the dwelling house occupied by the fami i; of J. J. fliers and John Smith, in the w stern part of the city last night. The fire appeared to be in the heart of several of the largest manufacturing plants in the city, and there was much excitement for awhile, on account of fear that one of these large enterprises was on fire. The fire caught from a log of wood, which rolled out of the fire place while the occupants were out of the house. The two famines saved all of their household effects. The house was Insured for about SSOO. though the loss was much more than that. Park also had a fire last night. About 11 o’clock flumes were discovered; by Mr. Andrew' Jackson on the roof of his kitchen. The flames had gained great headway' and were burning fiercely. Mr. Ja kson undertook to save some of his household goods, nnd was badly burned in the effort. He saved only a bed and a bnr- .iu and had his head burned fearfully w hile doing so.

The barn was built several years ago, and never entirely completed. It was a two story structure, and when the tim bers under it began to decay it became an easy victim to the passing breeze. The crackling timbers, the crash of the house. >nd then the settling of the timbers took two or three minutes time and many in the neighborhood believed that it was an earthquake.
