AUGUSTA, Ga., Oct. 26..-Fire de- stroyed the extensive lumber plant of Bess, Thompson x Co.,, on the outskirts of this city, together with about forty small frame dwellings in the immedi- ate neighborhood. The timber burned rapidly, and a strong wind carried the blazing embers broadcast. At one time the whole territory was burn- ing fiercely, the local department was powerless and the fire burned itself out. The loss will reach SlOO, 900, with insurance of about one-third. Nearly 200 people are homeless.

ENGLAND IS DISTURBED.
Russia's Movements In the Far East Caus-
 ing Excitement.

Ing Excitement.
 LONDON, Oct 26.-The dispatch from Shanghai announcing the departure of a fleet of fifteen Russian warships from Viadivostock for Chemulpo and Fusan, Corea, and the Times dispatch from Hong Kong announcing that Russia has obtained the right to an- chor her fleet at Port Arthur and construct railroads on the Liao Tung peninsula, have caused intense excitement in official circles here as well as in those having commercial re- lations with the far east. These most important statements are looked upon generally as being sudden reopening in an unexpected quarter of the far eastern question in its widest sense. The Shanghai dispatch added that the Japanese fleet in Formosan waters had been recalled, that several British warships had been ordered to Corea. and that preparations for a struggle were vis- ible on all sides. It is admitted here that the situation presented is so grave that should the news prove true it would make war, in which several nations will more than likely take part. It should be added that there is every reason to believe that the story from Hong Kong is authentic, and all sources of information agree that the powers interested in the far east will ind themselves confronted by condi- tion of seriousness which cannot be overestimated. The afternoon papers of this city all publish long articles agreeing that British intervention in the far east is necessary.

A DRUNKEN MOTHER.


Yesterday afternoon overseer OF the
poor Cummings and G. H. Thurber,
agent of the Society for the Prevention
of Cruelty TO Children, called upon the
family of Mary O'Neil, Is Cranston street.
and found the two children, boy and
a girl, aged 8 and Z years, covered with
vermin and uncared for. They were
taken in charge, and sent to the Rhode
Island Catholic Orphan Asylum, Prairie
avenue.
The father of the children died on
Hedly street about year ago. and the
condition OF the family at that time
warranted the children being taken, but
the mother said that her dead husband
was the cause OF the trouble, SO the
children were allowed 10 remain in her
custody. Shortly after the death of her
husband she was sent TO the State farm
for drunkenness, and when she was dis
charged about four months ago she
pleaded hard for her little ones, and
promised to care for them as a mother
should. The officials have kept an eye
on the children, and are now satisfied
that she is not capable of taking care OF
them.

TWENTY YEARS.
Sentence Of the Negro Who Killed
the Princeton Student

TRENTON, N. j., July 24.-John 8.
Collins, the negro, who shot and killed
June, and who was a few days ago con-
victed of murder I'm the second degree,
today received a sentence OF 20 years at
hard labor in the State prison.
Before the sentence, he was required to
plead to the indictment for atrocious
assault upon Garrett Cochran, another
student, whom he shot at the same time,
and his counsel entered plea of non vult
contendre.
Upon this plea, Collins was sentenced
to 10 years more, but Justice Gummery
announced that he and his associates had
decided to allow the sentences to run con-
currently, thus making the term only 20
years altogether.

The undivided half interest of Mrs.
Catherine G. Il. Wheaton i'm the Anthony
and Wheaton property on Westminster
street, near Turks Head, has been sold to
Mr.. Joseph Banigan. The deed was re-

this valuable property, considered to be
about the best business location in Provi-
dence.
The property contains about 16,3l0
square feet, with frontage of Is feet on
Westminster street, extending 200 feet
back TO Exchange Place. The other half is
owned by the Anthony heirs. The trans

the not very remote future a modern
business block will adorn the spot.
