Destructive FIRE.-A most destruc-
tive confagration occurred at Boyce
Station, on the Texas and Pacific Rail
road, about 90 miles from Alexandria,
on Friday night last, destroying in its
rage several business houses, and
otherwise doing considerable dam
age.
The total amount of damage done
is placed at $500. The stores of II. A
Biossat, A. E. Watson, and Carnahan
were burned to the ground. The two
former were filled with merchandise
the latter was empty. The buildings
were all owned by Mr.. Fl. A. Boyce, and
were insured for $3.50; they cost when
new about $3.50.
Mr.. H. A. Biossat's losses are placed
at $4,000. No insurance.-The Boyce
Hotel, large two story frame building
was by great effort Of the railroad men
and colored people saved. The fire
originated in one of the front rooms of
Mr.. Watson's store, and was first dis
covered about 10:45 p. N.
Messrs. Boyce and Biossat arrived
here late Saturday evening by train and
Immediately proceeded to the Office of
Magistrate Wilmington, where they
swore out afidayits against Isaac Rob-
erts, white, and Dick Murphy, colored,
charging them with the commitment of
the deed of setting fire to the building,
Both parties are well known here. Dick
has been for the last six months at
Boyce, having barber shop, and being
employed by Mr.. Watson. He was ar.
rested on Saturday night by Constable
Geo. Smith, having come down on the
Pcninah, which steamer was lying al
Cotile during the fire.
Roberts was brought to town and
placed in Jail Sunday evening. The two
will be given hearing in day or two
