EAST CHARLESTON.

Last Friday night the barS of A. G,
Lang was discovered on IRE by 11r.
Powers, a boarder with Mr.. Lang's
family. The latter were arodsed, and
had only time to release two horses
AID Il COW, and these not before they
had been severely burned about the
head and neck. There was burned
with the barn one buggy wagon, one
nice sleigh, one set of new traverse
sleds, one pair work harnesses, two
driving harnesses, a general stock of
farming tools, one calf, and several
hens. The carriage and harness be-
longed to Frank Lang and were unin-
surcd. There is a small insurance on
the barn. The fire is thought to be
the work of an incendiary, as there
were fresh tracks in the adjoining
field, and from the fact that threats
had been made by one Warren Handy.
The latter was therefore arrested, and
after a hearing he was put under $400
bonds for his appearance at the county
court next September. Last Tuesday
he was again arrested for making adj
ditional threats. Trial to-day, Friday.
