BURNING VARNISH.
Considerable Damage Done to Overs Agricult-
ural Implement Manufaetury.


About twenty minutes to 2 o'clock yesterday
afternoon pot of varnish on the fifth floor of a
building on Chesapeake street, between Meridian
and Pennsylvania, caught fire. This building is
the northern boundary of s,court in the rear of
Nos. 50 and 81 East Georgia street, and is used
by E. Over as warerooms finishing aud painting
departments of his agricultural implement man
utactory. Shaws carriage works were there at
one time, and the building has also been
part oil the road-cart manufactory. The fourth
and fifth floors were saturated with oils and
dried paint. which, added to the somewhat com
bustible character of the contents of the rooms
suppl1ed an easy way for the flames
In throwing the pot of varnish out of q window
some of the burning fluid fell to the floor, and in
an instant the flames spread rapidly through the
fifth story ard down into the fourth An alarm
was sounded from box 81 by Mr. Robbins, of
Robbins 81 Garrard carriage manufacturers,
NO. u East Georgia street, next door to Overs
establishment, and prompt response was given
out To make security to other property sure the
second alarm was turned in. 1t was about thirty
minutes work for the department to Quench the
flames and confne the greater part of the loss 10
the fourth and fifth stories.
The buildings named are owned by Murphy &
Holiday who have total insurance in MetZger's
agency Of SIG 000 one-half of which is on the
part damaged. The extent of their loss will de-
pend upon the condition of the walls, which are
said to be weak, and it is possible
they may be torn down. The act
ual damage to the roof and fourth and
fifth stories can be repaired for ST, 900. Murphy
& Holiday have So. 600 insurance in the Phoenix,
of London, Queen of England, and Westchester,
of New York, So, 900 each in the Scottish Union
and National, 81, 800 each in the New York
Alliance and Buffalo German, and ST. 900 in the
Williamsburg City and Louisville Underwriters.
Mr.. Overs loss will be about $4,000 which is
fully covered by $1O7O0 insurance in the follow
ing companies: Providence, Washington, 81. 5O0
Norwich Union 50 $780, Springfield. ST., 75O; Royal,
1880; Girard, Northern and Hanover, 81, 250

was going down Delaware street to the fire on
Chesapeake street, Richard Sargent and his
wife, from Buck Creek township. Hancock
county were driving east on Market, near the
intersection with Delaware. AS required, the
truck driver sounded his gong when nearing the
latter street. but Sargent thought he could make
the crossing and whipped up his horse. The
truck driver saw the danger, but could not check
up sufficiently to avoid collision. The truck
tongue struck the buggy and one of the horses
knocked down Sargent's horse and dragged it
several feet Mrs. Sargent was thrown out and
fell under the wheels Of the truck, one of which
cut her forehead badly DIR. Selman attended to

Central railway the other day." said a
gentleman Of this city Saturday. ga
short time after the train left Windsor,
Vt, young horse that was feeding in a
lot close by the side OF the track kicked
up his heels when the train was within a
few rods OF him, and, leaping the fence at
bound, jumped on the track, and gallop-
ed away ahead Of the train. The engi-
neer sou Eded hsW histle, and, although
the train vas AMIDST upon the horse. the
snimaf Odd not leave the track. The en-
gineer lesseued his speed, so that the
horse could keep out Of the reach Of the
train, thinking that the animal would
soon be frightened of. He kept straight
ahead, howevef,,and the cars chased MIN
closely for two miles. AT that point the
railroad crosses Adeep ravine by a tres
tie bridge 30 feet long. Some workmen
were at the end Of the trestle, and when
they saw the horse tearing down the track
toward them they shook their coats and
hallooed az hins The horse stopped at
sight of-theimea. but. looking back and
beh1uq him, Started ahead again with a
snorty and ga oned ,Rpon the trestle, al
though be could'easily have left the rail
road on eitheV side OF the rails. The horse
ran SAFELY more Tba an half way across the
trestle, and then missed his footing. Both
torefeet went down between the ties, and
then the hind feet and legs went through,
and the horse was suspended over the ra-
vine, the bottom of which was nearly a

trainmen took number OF boards from a
neigh6or'ng fence and placed them by the
side OF the horse. They then tied his legs
together and rolled him over on the
boards on his side. james Amman, a
passenger, was out on the tresting look
ing at the men at work at the horse. He
became dizzy and fell through one of tue
spaces between the ties. He mechani.
lcally turned as he was passing through
and flung both arms over one of the ties
! He hung there in midar over the chasm.
and before his hold could give way he was
seized by two other passengers who stood

afterward, and was not fully conscious
for an hour l&ter.r

then dragged of to one side of the track

One party from North Carolina

they were compelled to use chic

she suffered almost death, but
