The fire was discovered about half past

the inmates of the hotel had retired.
When first discovered by the watchman
the flames had made such Roadway as
to render all attempts 10 stop their ad-
vance unavailable, owing to the inaAm-
mAble nature of the building. Compar-
stIvely, nothing was saYed. Besides
the furniture, tableware and clothing
Mr.. Smith had heavy supplies Of bacon,
lard, canned fruits, etc, stored in Q rear
room, all of which were destroyed. His
total loss is estim ated at from s., 900 to
SO, O00-and no insurance. The store Of
Smith & Lane and The post office with
their continents, in the hotel building,
were also destroyed. Upon the stock of

John Alexander Tyler, second son
of the late President Tyler died recent
ly at Santa Fe, N. A. Though a
young man, his life had been full of in
cicent and romance. AT the age Of
fourteen he fled from the home of his
grandfather, on Staten Island, N. Y,
where his mother had taken refuge
with six of her children during the
storm of war, simply leaving word that
che felt it his duty to 60 and help his
brother defend his home and fireside. Z"
The war career of the small hero was
not great with deeds, but he pluckily
followed the Southern armies on foot,
and held a generals horse when he
could. After the war he went abroad /;
and had been In Germany for some
years when the Franco-Prussian war
broke out. He Immediately offered
Prussia his services, which, at frs I
refused on account Of his foreign birth,
were finally accepted on condition that
his admission should not be noted.
At the close of the war Mr.. Tyler was
presented by the Kaiser himself with
q medal and ribbon, for honorable ser
vices. or late years Mr.. Tyler has
toll owed the profession of mining and

A HORRIBLE and BLOODY DEED.
Bristol News, Sept 90.

A most mysterious affair occur
red here last night. A young man
named Wiley Duncan Is or 10 years
of age, originally from Claibourne
county Tenn, but who. had been
working for Mr.. Henry Stacy OF
Lee county, and had come to Bris-
tol with him yesterday on business.
Mr.. S., paid him ten dollars in gold
yesterday, and be was showing it
around, and was warned that he
had better be careful, as he was a
stranger and might probably have
it stolen from him. Last night,
about 10 o'clock it is supposed, some
unknown parties enticed him off,
carried him around in the alley be-
tween the foundry and the sand
house, and after shooting him, the
ball entering the right temple and
ranging round toward the ear, hit
him a severe blow over the ri ght
eye with car link f+acturing the
skull back of the eye, robbed him
of his money and left him to die,
He was found this morning about
6 o'clock, and conveyed to the court
room, where DIR. J. A. Dickey rem
dered all the assistance in his power
DR.. j. F. Hicks was also sent for and
probed his wounds, and thinks they
will, in all likelihood prove fatal
The young man has been unable to
speak. The wound over the eye is
unsightly and horrible to look upon
This is the most horrible aud bloody
deed that has been committed in
our midst since the killing Of Car
vey, and we hope the perpetrators
may be ferreted out and bought to
speedy Justice.
