Wednesday night or Thursday morning Mr. J. W. Castleberry who lives sevu* miles east of Americus, lu the 28th district, was awakened by the crackling |of (ire and discovered Ills house burning down. He first got his wife out, who has a litllo babe of only ten days, and then turned his nttoiition to save what lie could front the flames. He called a couple of ne groes, who live on the plnce, and with their assistance succeeded In saving two beds, a bureau and an organ. He made several efforts to enter tho house again, but could not. The bouse was a neat five-room country residence, built last year. Besides losing all of his furniture, his smoke .house and all of his provisions were swept away. The loss is estimated at twelve kuudred dollars, with no insur ance, Mr. Castleberry is a poor man, and the loss of his residence, fur niture, smoke house, etc., Is a sad blow to him. He is a bard work ing man with twelve small chil dren to provide for. The origin of the fire is un known, but is believed to be the work of an incendiary. A petititiod was circulated for his and family’s benefit yesterday. Let all help who can. Blood Purifier Cam Bolt., Old Sore,.

The dauce of the deacons, the district school scene, the great country fair and all following each otfier iu rapid succession, made an eve ning’s enjoyment that would drive away the blues from au ludlgo fac tory. The music is fine and of the most “catchy” nature. The sougs are excellent and the topical pro duction, "Nobody Knows,” brought the house down lu a storm. If “Si Perkins” should ever come back to Sherman, we predict that the house will not be sufficiently large to hold thy crowd. Bather Piggish. Americus boasts the prize pig- foot eater; at least his record is the best yet in. Wednesday night H. M. Buckner tackled Mr. J. T. Alexander for treat of something to eat, uud made away with three pig’s feet in a few seconds. On surprise being expressed as' lo the rapidity with which they disap peared, he declared that he could eat as many as a dozen in 15 min utes. Mr. Alexander offered to pay for them if he did, If Buokuer would pay for them ifne failed. The conditions were accepted and the raco began. As fast as Mr. Scarborough, from whom they weT* bought, could sboVel them out, Buckner ground off the meat and pitched the bones in a box. In ten minutes 25 had disappeared, and still he showd no disposition to stop. His appetite seemed insati able, nnd the last was eaten In just 14 minutes with as much sesmlng Superior court adjourned yester day until next Monday.
