8 sltnh1 RIaza ON AndeI


a slight RIsze on A.dersOn street.
On Sunday night, about eleven O'Clock,
the roof of the small kitchen, in rear Of the
house on the north side of Anderson street,
near Whitaker, occupied by Bristow Green,
colored, was discovered to be on fire. The
shanty is very old and burned fercely, CIV
ing forth frightful blaze, which indicated
lively confagration. An alarm was rung
from the house of Protection Hose Com
in the vicinity, and they were soon on
the ground and at work, be-
ing assisted by number OF
citizens. Sergeant owen Reilly, who lives d.
reetly opposite, and who was at home, rem
dered very valuable and efficient assistance
in preventing a serious confagration. Ad-
Joining the burning shed are the offices OF
The CITY and Suburban Railway Company,
and had strong wind been blowing, they
would have been In serious danger. AS it
was, the promptness of the Protection Hose
Company and their efficient services,
with the assistance rendered by Sergeant
Reilly. Mr. J. N. Rain, clerk In the office
OF the City and Suburban Railway, and
others, alone prevented the destruction of
the house occupied by Green, and several
small shanties. The kitchen was pretty
well burned out, the roof being entirely
consumed. The origin of the fire is not
known, but is supposed to have been occa-
stoned by defect in the chimney, as 1t was
first discovered in the roof near the bricks
by Joe Clay, tae colored Office boy at the
railroad depot, and had probably been
smoulderiug since Saturday, as there was no
fire built in the kitchen on Sunday. The
property belonged to DR.. L. A. Falligant.

Row Among COIOred ExcursiOniats.

Row Among OOlOred EXcurstOniStss
The steamer Silver Star arrived here Yester-
day from Beaufort with large party OF col
ored excursionists. 1t appears that on the
wav over lively row occurred on the steam
er, in which some five or six persons were in
volved. The trouble was started just be-
fore the steamer entered Catalogue Sound
by Henry Thompson, whose tuneful ear
was annoyed by the vigorous manner In
which one of the musicians, John Lewis,
manipulated the "big bass drum" Lewis,
who brides himself on his capacity to
"beat.i' objected to the criticism of the
aesthetic Henry, and the result was a war OF
words. and finally the parties came to blows.
Henry had two teeth knocked out and his
nasal organ enlarged, and Johns optics were
ornamented with mansard corntces, as 1t
were. The friends of the parties took
a hand in the little frolic, which at one time
It is asserted bid fair to become general.
The disturbance was eventually quieted,
however, before any serious results ensued,
and the remainder of the trip was made to
fine CITY in peace, On landing at the wharf
here the quarrel was renewed and another
scrimmage occurred under the bluH. Some
OF the parties FASTENED to Magistrate Waring
Russellis office and had warrant issued
against the rioters, and Henry thompson,
John Lewis, John Scott, Henry Stuck and
two others, alleged to be ringleaders, were
arrested and carried before the Magistrate.
After a hearing in the case the Magistrate
required them to enter into bonds to keep
the Deace in Georgia, and they were then
discharged. There was no further trouble
during the day, aud they left in the after
noon on their return to Beaufort. 1t
is not at all unlikely that before they reach
ofra 81 N "a
boat. as all the parties were very excited.
Whist the examination was in progress at
the magistrates office Bryan street was
thronged with colored persons, and the
large crowd attracted considerable attention
and oceasioned great curiosity.
