EDGEFIELD.

THE CHRISTMAS Tree AT TULIP STREET |
CHuRcH.-There was gay turnout lest
night at Tulip Stree; Church, TO take a
peep at Slnta Claus and his abuadantly
loaded tree of good things. The tree was
stationed in front of the pulpit in the
second story of the building. The audi
ence being comfortably seated, old Santa
Claus made his appearance through
window, and proceeding TO the tree, the
distribution of gifts was commenced. All
the little folks were remembered, and then
there was something left for those not so
young. Judge 10. c. Guild and Gen. 8.
r. Anderson were not forgotten in the ex-
citement of the occasion, for in loud tones,
the old man at the tree announced stick
of candy for each of the gentlemen. Tom
Crunk, too, was the recipient of hoop
skirt, while several other gentlemen were
remembered kindly. But there was one
announcement particularly woIthy of men,
tion--a bag Of -four and package Of So
gar and coffee, for a worthy and deserving
widow lady in needy circumstances.
After the distribution, the audience was
invited TO repair to the basement story
where magnificent supper awaited them
The festival altogether was great sue
cess and everybody appeared TO be de-
lighted.
FIRE.-About nine o'clock last night, q
fire broke out in stable on the premises
Of Thomas Morgan, on Porter street.
which was entirely consumed. The hire
originated from a sky rocket. The situa'
ton was Immediately mastered by the
citizens who congregsted there, and when
we say that large quantity of hay within
ten feet of the burning building was saved
from destruction, it indicates with wha'
perseverance, those present, conducted

Great excitement on Cherry street.

Great Excitement ON Cherry street.
About half past : o'clock lsai night, a
couple Of horses attached to a buggy, be-
came frightened at the popping of LOT of
fre.crackers ia front Of Colonnade Bald
ing, Cherry street, and dashed eff at full
speed, rafting over the Nicholson pave
ment with the swiftness of the velocipede.
A negro boy named JEFF. Spence was in
buggy, holding on to the reinq, and en-.
deavoring to check the horses, but without
success. As the team passed "our corner"
the scene was frightful to behold, and the
people upon the sidewalks we're in state
Of terrible excitement, and in great sus-
pense as to the fate of the unknown person
in the vehicle. When about half way be.
tween Chsreh and Broad on Cherry, the
wheels of the buggy collided with q tree
and the vehicle was upset, and the horses
felled 10 the ground, and the driver throwl
on the pavement against the fence. AL
though considerably bruised, Spence, thu
negro boy, was not severely injured. Th'
team belonged to Deputy Sheriff Marshall
who had left the same in the hands Of tn
negro boy until he'cOuld go up to his room
in the Colonnade Building. The bugg.
was badly smashed, and one OF the horses
il is thought, fatally injured

ANOTHER BOLD ROBBERY.

About 500 Worth Of Goods Stolen.
% Wednesday night last the store Of
Gray & Noble on Cherry street, rear the
corner of Bank Alley was entered by
burglars, and goods amounting in value TO
about 500 carried of. Amongst the
arliclesstolen were thirteen dozen shirts
eight sets Of furs, and large lot Of shirt
studs and sleeve buttons.
The burglars entered the store by the
front door, and this too, in one of the most
public thorougfares in the city. A screw
driver yesterday morning was found on the
floor, the instrument probably used in
forcing open The door. A card was also
found ia the store, Oh which was written
in large hand, the following: "Sacret 10
the memory of Rev. Ransom Harris.
Blessed are the pure in heart, for they
shall zee God" This card evidently was
dropped by one Of the thieves, and from
the quantity Of goods taken of, there mast
have been several engaged in the robbery.
On this occasion, The iLdic4tiong are
strong that he was not following directly
the scriptural irjuction which was SO
prOmin ent upon his person. Before his
next nocturnal visit, We sdvise him to bear
in mind The commandment Chou shalt
not steal"

SUMMARY DISPOsETTON IA BRACE
OF PICKPOCRETS NEAR Run
BOLDT.
They are Taken from a Hallway TrniT
and Left Dangling TO tho I.itnbs
Of Trees.

A couple of pickpockets were granted
short shrift on the Mobile and Ohio Rail
road, Monday night. They boarded the
train somewhere east of Columbus, and by
the time it reached Humboldt had relieved
several passengers Of wallets, watches and
other valuables. After leaving the latter
place they robbed an old man Of every
dollar he possessed. The affair created
considerable excitement, which reached
fever heat by the time the train arrived 1T
Carroll Station, six mills beyond the June
ton. When the cars stopped at Carroll
depot, ard ii was suddenly resolved 70
forever rid the iiue e Railroad Of thee
birds Of prey. The fellows were taken out
by residents and passengers; strong ropes
were secured, aud in a few moments their
Iifeless corpes dargled from the limbs Of
a tree. The lynching was conducted
quietly. The proof was positive, the stolen
property being found on their persons and
identified. Their last earthly exploit was
accomplished.
Our informant, Mr.. w. c. jones, con
duc,or on the Memphis and Louisville
line, says the Memphis Aralanehe, did not
learn The name Of these latest victims Of
Judge Lynch, but they were doubtless
members Of i gang recently arrested here
for yagrarcy and ordered to leave the city
l. is known tina; Two Of Them procured
tickets fJr Humboldt.
Fer scveTal weeks P;ckpoCkets have
been operating extensively on the lines G.
the Memphis ard Louisville, Mobile and
Ohio and Memphis and Charleston rail
roads. They have robbed almost indiscrimi-
nalely, and uptil The summary action
above mentioned, almost with immunity.
Would il not pay" the railroad au;hori-
ties 20 employ three or four shrewd detec-
fiv.- IN rid the lines Of these scOurpPs
