| Upon investigation, we learn, it proved to
be box containing large quantity of
fire crackers, which some mischievous
boys had placed in the street near Maj.
Henry Myers house, and exploded. The
noise and sulphurous odor that hoated
citizens forced the thought upon his mind
that large meteor had fallen near by,
and in his excitement he knocked over
lamp on table and broke it. His wife
laughed at him heartily.
Mr.. Chuck Anderson will at once add
another story to his brick livery stable,
and tear away the rear shed and build it
up two stories in connection with the
main building, thus giving him two story
brick livery stable building $50 feet long
and a carriage house 673x90 feet. His
carriage house will have an elevator and
the carriages will be in the second story.
New stalls and everything in keeping will
be put in, and when completed he will
have one of the best and finest livery sta
bles in the South.
