IA hot war Of words between senator Till
man and Mr.. Frank B. Gary, a delegate
from Abbevills, during which the lie was
passed. Gary charged TillmGn had

excited and said he did not want to have 4
personal difference with the gentleman,
but he could not sit quietly by when such
an untruth was uttered
Gary replied that parliamentary usages
and the rcspcct he had for the convention
prevented him from rcscnting then the
words used by Senator Tillman, but he
would hold him personally responsible
outside. Before adjournment friends be-
gan to try to settle the matter and avoid IL

After the convention both gentlemen met

TWO LADIES ON FIRE.

Night.


Mary Gray and Betsy Bell Burning All
Night.
Soon after dark Last night fire was
observed on the western slope OF Betsy
Bell, near the summit. 1t was not lon
until 1T became ap aren't that the who
eastern slope of this beautiful and
graceful li'tle mountain was in flames,
while fire broke out in spots on the
western slope. producing the convic ito n
that the fire was arti6cially created.
Mary Gray, Betsy Bells twin sister,
was also afame last night. Numbers of
our young people went over to visit the
two young ladies of flame.
Near the foot of these little noun
tatns are some cottages, but up to the
time of going to press this morning it
WAS not learned If they were in dan
ger. Owing to the exceedingly dry
state OF everything, IL ia very probable
that both mountains will be completely
burned over, and 1t will need close
watching TO see that tho fire does not
spread into the adjoining lowlands.
There was little wind last night and
what there was tended eastward. The
Western State Hospital stable is near
the foot OF the western slope of Betsy
