A CHIMNEY BURNS OUT,

The chimney of No. 45 Hill street,
between J. Q. Boynton’s and 8.
Samuels’ bars, caught tire yesterday
a little before noon and gave Oft a
Hne volume of sparks and smoke.
A new negro restaurant had started
dowD io the basement and lighted
the first fli-e for some months.
No. 2's new hose wugon was out
in short meter, but iu turning
Sparks’ corner the turn was too
short for the speed and tbe wagon
flew up and nearly turned complete¬
ly over, throwing off the colored
driver nod Will Flemister on top of
him from the driver’s seat, while
Bmo Flemistet fell from tbe rear with
Wilson Matthews on top of him.
Paul Simmons, a light weight color¬
ed boy, was thrown clear to the
urtber side of the purk, where he
taogled up in the wire fence and
stopped for repairs. The intelligent
and well trained horses had stopped
at the fiist word from the driver and
stood still. None of the occupants
were seriously injured, though
Messrs. Flemisters were somewhat
bruised up. Some of the fixtures to
the handsome new wagon were con¬
siderably knocked out of shape, bot
the actual damage was apparently
not very great.
The boys dragged the hose up to
tbe place and Wilson Matthews was
tirst to skin up an awniog post and
get on top; but in the confusion of
the accident the fire bad been allow-

any water on it.

THE PAY IN ORIFKIN.
The dey was bright and favorable
for voting;
Tbe only two white Populists W. at
tbe Griffin polls were Col. T.
PlyDt and a man by tbe name of
Vattpbn. But as tbe mgro vote,
upon which i heir main reliance was
placed, began to come in sclid’v for
i be fienu crate, they left loDg before
noon. Their onlv*»ctive colored
worker soon became ashamed if
himself and was the first feg-tcAve tbe
polls and go
About noon tbe ^mutation „
was “What have yon heart)?’’ Very
little bad been beard at that time,
except that things were going nearly
all one way at the court bouse,
though the business men were slow
in votiug as usual. It v-ae reported
that Concord had polled about 75
Democratic majority at ten o’clock,
while Mulena had gone for Hioes ns
expected. Waverly Hall was said to
be about 150 to 10 Democrat! , and
this was good news, ns Harris coun
ty was regarded as closed.
About six o’clock it was generally
reported that Batts apd Fayette
bad gone for the Populists t»v an
aggregate majority of 850; but Beeks it
was known then that .fudge
had receivtd from 500 to COO major
ity in this county, so little real ap
prehension was felt. At half past
nine a telegram was received from
Hon. Y. A. Wright, at Jackson, tbut
Butts had gone Democratic ay a
small majority, while Hon. A. 0
Blalock, at Fayetteville, said Fay¬
ette was doubtful. Then the consol¬
idated returns of the couuty were
read from the News and Scn balcony
aDd a shout went up for Beeks and

All Amendments Defeated.
Atlanta, Oct. 4. 2 00 p. m.— [Spe¬
cial. J-From all information received
it is thought that all the constitu¬
tional amendments are defeated.
The campaign managers estimate
that there will be 50 to 55 Populist
members of tbe legislature, 0 of
whom will be in the senate.
The negro vote iu the State was
generally for tbe Populists and gave
them their gain.
Just as We Expected In Fulton
Atlanta, Oct- 4, 2:30 a. m.—[Spe¬
cial ]—The total vote cast in this
county was about 6.000, of which
Atkinson will get between 1,000and
1,500 mujority. Howell, Broyles
and Braonan w-re elected to tbe
lower bouse and Venable to tbe sen¬
ate from this district. Atkinson car
ried.every ward in tbe city, includ¬
ing Hioe’s own ward, by a small ma¬
jority, but several country precincts
went for Hines.
An Early Estimate.
Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 3,10:45 p. in.
—[Special.J—Indications are that
Atkinson has carried the State by
thirty or forty thousand majority.
Dem. losses reported from almost
every county beard’from and Popo-
ists make gains for the legislature,

mate; returns not in till after mid¬
night. 0 The Constitution.
The Banner County.
Savannah, Ga , Oct’ 4, 1 a. m,—
[Special ]—Chatham county gave
Atkinson a majority of 2,749 io a
total vote of 3,053. His majority
is 157 greater than Nortben’s ma-
joritvin 1892 and 508 greater than
