Fire was discovered in two frame
houses on Searles street above Fourth,
owned by Margaret McGrenera and
Peter ]. Ford, about II o'clock Monday
night. Two alarms of fire were turned
in, from box 81 Front and Searles
streets and No. 63, Fourth and Scott
streets. The fire department had the
flames extingulshed in 10 minutes after
the alarm was sounded. The fire was
undoubtedly OF incendiary origin. A
person who was on the scene shortly
after the fire broke out said it looked as
though some one had saturated the boards
on the side Of the house with coal oil
before setting fire toit. Mrs. McGrenera's
loss is about $50; no insurance. Mr..
Ford's loss will not exceed 500 it is
said, upon which there is an insurance.

no trouble whatever, and it was ex-
trcmely gratifying after the trouble that
had been encountered in the erection of
No. 25 school. He stated that the con
tractor of the new schoolhouse, William

tors, and on his motion Mr. Brown was
allowed $1,948.70 on account, which
sum is the last payment on the

A PLEASANT EVENT.
Something About the Methodist Recep-
ton as Given By Guest.

The reception to the young people
of the Methodist church, given by
the ladies last night, was more than
pleasant affair. The object of the en-
tertainmentwas simply to bring to-
gether the young church members,
and encourage their mutual inter-
course, also to endeavor to raise the
standard of associations, and give the
new pastor chance to come in con-
tact with the young people of the
church. To say it was success in
every particular does not express the
fullness of the pleasure enjoyed. The
evening was spent in conversation,
music, recitations, and last, though
by no means the least, lunch. Miss
Maude Haynes, daughter of Rev.
B. F. Haynes, Of Nashville, gtin
a most commendable way, recited
"Naming the Baby" She was
loudly applauded. Miss Ethel
Adams also rendered creditable
recitation, entitled "The First Settle
ment," by Will Carleton. She was
followed by Harry Pickering, who
recited "King David's LamentsOver
Absalom." He rendered the pro
duction well, and with great deal of
pathos. An excellent lunch was
served by the ladies, and all seemed
to enjoy this part of the program as
if they never expected it to occur
again. The best way to reach a fel'
lows heart is to furnish full sup
ply of girls and culinary stores. To
ward the close of the entertainment,
B. l.. Rice, in behalf of the commit
tee, in few words, introduced the
following resolution:
To the Ladies Of the M. u. Church
South, at UarkSUuIe:
Representing, as We,dO, the wishes
OF the young people presents we de-
sire to extend our thanks for the

that such occasions are calculated to

up to higher plane, and are always

good to those who participate. We
also extend thanks to the young peo-
pie who entertained us with recita
tions, and to the ladies who rendered
music suitable to the occasion. We
again extend thanks, and humbly
ask that the event be repeated as
soon as practicable. [Signed. ..-esas, -.ssSs

WAYLAID AND SHOT.
A Cowardly, Brutal Murder Near
Hopkinsville.
Walter Weaver, an Industrious Young
Farmer, Assassinated and LeftlTo
Die on the Road.
BODY RIDDLED WITH BULLETS.

The Hopkinsville New Era of yes
terday gives the following account of
brutal murder committed near
Bainbridge, Ky:
zone OF the most brutal murders
that mas darkened the annals of any
county or community occurred We'd
nesday afternoon near cambridge,
ten miles west of this city.
"Walter B. Weaver, a young man
highly respected and esteemed by'all
who knew him-an industrious, en-
ergetic young farmer of twenty-five
years-was ruthlessly and cruelty
shot down by an assassin and left to
die in his blood upon the public high
way.

shot in his chest and side. Mr..
Woolsey fastened to notify the pa
rents of the victim at their heme not
three-fOurths of a mile away.
The young wife, the aged father
and mother of the murdered
man were soon bending over
his lifeless form and weeping
upon the road side. A coroner's
jury was summoned by 'Squires
Wood and Dunning, who conducted
an inquest. There was no evidence.
Shots had been heard by several
parties, among them the victims
mother; the body had been found al
most riddled with bullets-this was
the substance of the testimony. The
verdict was that Walter Weaver had
come to bis death at the hands OF an
unknown assassin. The body showed
no evidence of having been touched
after.the murder. Robbery was not
the purpose of the assassin;
"Circumstantial evidence OF
strong character points to certain
individual of the neighborhood, be-
tween whom and young Weaver
there had existed bad feelings for
years, as the, author of his end. TIhe
father OF the young man who was 80
foully murdered was in the New
Era ONCE this morning and does not
hesitate to denounce this man as the
assassin of his son. He will leave no
stone unturned in his efforts to fix
upon him the crime and bring upon
him the penalty of the bloody deed.
In speaking of the assassination to
the writer this morning Mr.. Weaver
entered into details and narrated cir
cumstances and incidents which.
while they would seem to point to
the party as the murderer, do not
warrant this paper in charging him
with a crime 80 damnable. But they
DO warrant an investigation, speedy
and thorough.

in the neighborhoOd and excitement
increases as the affair is discussed.

the arrest OF ID. b. Wiles and his son,
William, and officers S. G. Cravens

1t is impossible to say how many
vehicles Were burned. An estimate
made by C.S Daniel puts the number
of all kinds of vehicles in the stable
at about thirty. Nearly all of these
were burned. They belonged indi

FIRE NOTES.
According to the best information
that could be had this morning the
Eclipse stables were built in 1867, by
Roach & Dick. For the past ten
years the fire company has dreaded a
fire in the building, from the fact that
it was so situated as to be dangerous
to the business part of the city. Had
the wind been blowing from the
north last night, it would have been
next to impossible to have kept the
fire from going through to Franklin
street. No better night could have
been selected for the fire, and there is
general rejoicing that the damage is
no worse.
The fire boys have requested the
LEAF-CHRoNICLE to return their sim
cerest thanks to Mrs. Geo. Carlisle for
some good coffee and bread kindly
furnished them after the fire had
been put under control.
Every horse and vehicle was taken
from Gill's stable. Horses were gal
Looping everywhere and Second street
from the stable to College was filled
with buggies and carriages.
Many ladies viewed the fire from
Ernest Elders lawn. They seemed
to enjoy the heroic fight that was
made by the tiremen.
