The cottage of Mr.. Il. HotSon on West
Russell Street took fire last Saturday night
and WAS burned to the ground. Some par
ties discovered the flames just as they were
breaking through the roof about II O'Clock
and the alarm was hastily given, but the fire
had already gained such headway that the
saving Of the building was impossible. The
house had not been occupied for few days,
but Mr.. Hotson intended removing thereto
the following Monday, and in fact bad on
Saturday placed few of his household
goods in the structure. These, happily,
were all saved and the loss was on the build
ing alone, which was insured for $500. fire
had been built in the fireplace during the
evening and it is supposed this caused the
cOnflagTation.
c. o. Rockwell shot one Nelms at Annap-

Is tie cutter living a few mile, from An
napolis, went into tc..n the evening named
and called AT Rockwell's store for some coal
oil. 1t was after dark and Mr.. &. Q. Rock
well Informed the gentleman that the rules
of the insurance company forbid selling of
coal oil after lamplight. Nelms complained
considerably but finally departed. Mr..
Rockwell shortly after closed the store and
went down to JohusOn'S barber shop. There
he found Nems abusing and yilliying the
Rockwel'S in language strong and unmIs-
taxable. Rockwell asked Nelms to dcsist
but it was all in vain, X. then drew a revolver
and shot, the bail striking one of the ribs
and giancing off without seriously injuring
the vietlR. Friends interfered and prevent
ed further trouble. NemS, it is said, was
under the influence of liquor.
