the neck and beat him about the
shoulders with their fists while search

him to the steep bank OF a run near

He scrambled out and they threw
him back and pressed his head under
the water with a stick as though
their purpose was to drown him 1t

after he recovered sufficiently he some

His wife got his wet clothes changed

A Great Fire in Galena.

The town of Galena, Kent county,
was visited by most disastrous fire on
Friday morning last.
The fire originated at O'Clock a. m.
from defective flue in the kitchen of
the residence of Henry Parr, situated
in the southern or business section of
the town. Mrs. Parr left the breakfast
table to so to the kitchen, and dis
covered the room in blaze.
The town was Immediately aroused
by the ringing of bells. The fire spread
with alarming rapidity, the dwelling
of Asbury Ruth, w. T. Woods resi-.
denoe, the town hall, Henry PARIS
saddlery and harness store, Mrs. A. E.
lreland's drug store, and the public
library were doomed.
The town was at the mercy of the
flames. The only water supply was
from the wells. Assistance was tele-
graphed for to Chestertown, but that
town has no engine which could be of
use. Middletown, Del. was the next
applied to, but could give no assistance
in the absence of a water supply in
Galena. No assistance could be got
from Clayton. Del. Finally Winning
ton was requested to send down fire
engines by special train. But by the
time the dispatch reached Wilmington
the fire was under control and the call
countermanded.
While the fire was at Its height flames
were discovered Issuing from the rear
of the hardware store of w. T. Wood,
some distance away. This was in the
business block and was located in a
position supposed to be safe. When
the fire broke out Mr.. Wood was MAX
ing fire in his store. He started out
to fight the flames, leaving the draft on
his stove, which became overheated
and set fire to the store. The flames
rapidly spread from Woods store and
destroyed one after another the I'M
occupied residence of James Walls, the
drug store of DR.. A. H. Dickinson, the
unoccupied atone building of Jerry
Peacock, the store of ]. Peacock, I'M
occupied residence of jeremiah Peacock,
Frank H. Ruth's large general store,
P. F. Pierce's shoe shop, Hicks & Bros
wheelwright and blacksmith shop, S. A.
Briscoe's oyster saloon and the resi-
dence of the Misses Scott, the barn of
G. !. Scott, the shop of Mrs Nichola,
the millinery store of Miss Ella Rarr,
PARIS shop, Brispoe's residence and an
unoccupied shop and the unoccupied
hotel of R. o. Pennington.
The progress of the fire was finally
stopped by the removal of a butcher 8
shop which widened the gap between
the fire and the next building,
County Commissioner Robert G.
Morgan ip assisting to fight the flames
was badly burned about the neck and
face. The tire burned furiously for
more than three hours and for time
it was feared that the entire town
would be destroyed.
The loss is estimated st from $4,000
to SIC, 1I0e On which there is probably
an insurance of $4,000.
Galena is the fifth largest, and next
to ChesteFtown, the most progressive
town of Kent county. 1t has popula-
ton of about three hundred, is situated
about one mile from Georgetown, on
the Sassafras river, and sixteen miles

Bowie's Murderers Discovered.

Bowie's Murderers Discovered.
The discovery of the murderers OF
the rich planter, Francis Bowie, in
Upper Marlboro, is entirely due to the
fear of the wife of one of the assassins
to tell a lie on Good Friday. Pinkney
and Barber, the two men charged with
the crime, were arrested but the evil
dence was insufficient. Constable
Sweeney, knowing that Pinkney's
wife was a strict Catholic, hit upon a
scheme to make her confess. He went
to her house and urged her to make
a clean breast of everything.
"Don't you know" said Sweeney.
that this is Good Friday, and that if
you tell me lie your soul will be lost
forever, and can you stand and tell me
you know nothing about this affair.""
Then the woman began to cry and
said she knew her soul was in danger if
she lied, but what would become of
herself and the children if her husband
was taken from her.
"Where is that watch?' asked
Sweeney. and then the story came out.
The watch had been taken from the
murdered man and was the last link in
the chain of evidence. She said she
heard Barber come to the house on the
day after the murder and ask for the
watch which her husband refused to
give up. The next day he gave her the
watch and she threw it into the water
nearby. A search was made by the
constable and the watch found.
