Had li Under Control.
Jackson villa, Fla., June 17.—At 1:20
o’clock this morning the Mo.iclo build*
mg, corner of Clay street ami West Bay,
was discovered ou lire in the third story.
This is occupied' by the Jacksonville
knitting itiiil, a new corporation, ot' a
125,000 capital stock.
The lire department was largely in
East Jacksonville, lighting a lire in a
cottage, and tiie response was slow. In
the meantime locomotives in the rail
road yards were arousing the town with
a series or' whoops, and in a lew min
utes West Bay street was lull of excited
and panic-stricken people.
When the department arrived the
flames were bursting from several win
dows in the knitting mill, and for sev
eral minutes it looked threatening. Mer
chants and residents in the neighbor
hood began moving stocks and fur
niture. The department kept the flarnet
con lined, however, anti in an hour is
was under control.
The building is owned by G. II. Fos
ter. It is estimated that the damage to
the building will amount to about $10,
000, to the knitting Brothers factory about $10,
000, to the Three Cigar com
pany about $0,000, and to the ocher oc
cupants of the building about $5,000.
PRETTY GIRL BEHIND EARS.
Arrest of Miss i aimie Kilgore llua
Stirred Florida.
Tampa,*F ia., June 19. — Sheriff Lesley
has arrived here with Mis; Fannie Kil
gore, daughter of Hon. W. C. G. Kil
gore, county commissioner of Sumter
county, as a prisoner. She is a comely
young woman of education and good so
cial position. r »
.
Her arrest was caused by the death of
My Hatfield A Emma 409 -Hatfield, Whiting wife, of thisctcV.' Eugene
at street,
The proceedings were taken against
Miss Kilgore by Jack Bellamy, a brother
of Mrs. Hatfield.
Some time ago Miss Kilgore came here
from Wildwood to accept employment.
She went to board at the Hatfield resi
dence. Ou Saturday morning June t>,
Mrs. Hatfield, who was in a delicate
condition, found a note in Miss Kil
gore’s room inteuded for her husbaud.
She accused Miss Kilgore of writing the
note and reprimanded her for doing i-O.
Words followed, and it is alleged that
the young woman made a furious as
sault upon Mrs. Hatfield. The mother
became critically ill and died Sunday.
The matter had been investigated by
Police Captain Jones and upon the re
quest of Bellamy he took steps to have
the young woman arrested. Bellamy
complains that Hatfield aliowed the
young woman’s father to come and take
her away and showed no inclination to
take proceedings in the ease.
The arrest has created a tremendous
sensation here aut^ throughout the state,
where the young defendant is known.

and a day or two a'terwar is the bodies
of her husbaud and tlieir two chlbireu,
Who had been dead ior quite a number
of yeurs, were received ut Cu-seiu. Mr.
Sims, it seems, was raised in Chatta

to Waoo, Tex., wnere lit- resided uuti*
the time While of his. death, about 17 ami year]
ago. in Texas ue married a.
a result of tho union two children were

they were buried side by side at Waco.
Before bis death Mr. situs made the
request that his remains be carried

Mrs. Sims did not carry out this request

them back to Georgia ami to also carry'
with her hush.urn’s body me remains of
their two children, .'lie accordingly
shipped the three bodie-. now only a

seems, practically assurt-n li - win be

The rumor that Air. J. Wi.l .m Aim

to be equally well founded. Air Alin

banking house of Middenhor:. Oiiv t <–

almost any other man toward financier

properties comprising the greater Skel- Sea

pointmeut of his friend and co-worker
to the position Mr. indicated, Williams’ it would seem,
is in line with policy.
It is announced that upon ins promo

the Mexicau and civil wars, died here
last night, aged 78 years.

stormed a battery of 12-pounders case

can soldiers, taking the guns and win
ning the plaudits of McClellan, Beaure
gam and other officers who witnessed
the brilliant charge, iu the bloody en
counter ac Cherubusco a few days later

At the outbreak of hostilities between
the states General Gardner became col
onel of the Eighth Georgia regiment
and led his regiment in the first battle
of Manassas, July 21, 1801. His leg
was shattered by a ball during this bat
tle, and for the past 40 years he has
