were called out fey an alarm of
fire, to find that the old wooden
building on the northwest eorner
ot Broad and Scott streets was on
fire amd before any effhetive aid
could be had, was beyond control
and the building soon became a
prey to the flames.
The old building had been oon
denmed by council, but the own¬
ers. who Jive in Savannah, had
refused to remove it and a suit
was pending, butvt is settled a-ow

this morning. Four children of
Burrell Jordon were playing in
one of the .plantation houses when

house and returned with his fa¬
ther’s shotgun, the contents of
one barrel of which was fired in¬
to the breast of his thirteen year
old brother. The load passed
through the boy’s left lung and
the doctors say he cannot sur¬
vive. The boy then attempted to
shoot another brother and sister,
but they eluded him by hiding in
some bushes.

shooting but was caught this
morning at a negro’s home two
miles from where the crime was
