Wednesday night, about half past eleven o’clock fire was discovered in the roof of J. W. Bonnell’8 saw mill at Da ren, about twelve miles from town. By very hard work Mr. Bonnell man aged to save his entire stock of lumber. It was impossible to extinguish the blase however until it had entirely consumed ■the.mill building, with all the machin ery it contained. It is hoped that the boiler of the plant is uninjured, and if not the total loss will post up in the neighborhood of $1000 with no insurance. My. Bonnell was in the city yesterday aid announced that he would imme diately rebuild. Expressions of sym pathy on his loss were universal. Every Correct Connt n Mm . p,;., > IN PRIZES TO BE -GIVEN AWAY. Capid has been buayof late in Thomas county but his work has been along rou tine lines—and no romantic happenings, , have occurred to sustain Tbomasville’s lately acquired reputation as a haven for rnn-away couples. 1 On Monday evening however a mar-* riage such as romanticists delight in took place in Cairo, and there is a 1 Thomasvil e end to the story also. On t that evening Mr. John W. A. Carter se cured from Ordinary Jones a license to t Wed Mis* Katie May Richter, an eigh- l teen-year-old girl, daughter H Mr. r Frank Richter of Cairo.' There was de cided paternal opposition to the union. Mr. Carter, however, was undaupted by this, as are all true lovers. He went to Cairo, claimed liis bride, and they were united in the* bonds of wedlock by Judge Joshua Barrow, one of the oldest jus tices of the peace in the county. * ? They left Cairo immedia eiy after the 3 ceremony and drove through the coun- 1 try to Thomasville. They registe.ed at '* the Stuart House and remained here until Tuesday afternoon. They took 0 their departure on the '2:80 p. m. for d Waycr#s8 where they will in future *" make their home. There is an epidemic in Thomasville at present, but it is of a most desirable kind.
