$50 People Leave HartsviIlc for
IaurCnS,

The Hartsvillo Messenger has the
following account Of the Darlington
people who reached here last week to
take places in our cotton mill. 1t will
be noted as to the high character given
them, at their old home:
a scene was witnessed at the Harris
vile depot yesterday morning that
was witnessed here bcfore-that
of 100 people possibly more) leaving
to make their homes in another por-
ton Of the State.
Last week we mentioned the fact
that Mr.. w. e. Lucas, president OF the
Laurcns Cotton Mills, was in town -
lie remained here only one day and
two nights but it was long enough for
the fact to be made public that he
wanted q number OF respectable fami-
lies to move to Laurcns to take posi-
lions in the cotton mill. The news
spread aud applications were received
for places from all directions. Mr.. II.
T.. Lucas took the matter in hand and
soon arranged to take the operatives
to L.aurcns in u special car and at re-
uuccd prices Yesterday morning it
was found hat ono car would not hold
tho crowd but there was ample room
III the regular passenger car and not
less than l5O persons left, bound for
Laurcns. The special car took its oc-
cupants through to Laurcns without
any change.
Among those who went we're quito Il
number Of honorable. hard working
people and we trust hat their venture
may prove both pleasant and rrotita-
bic. 1t is quito probable that other
families from this section will move to
Iaurens for the purpose OF working in
the large cotton mill there.

Fire..

On the morning of Friday last lust
as the clock announced the end of the
old year the alarm OF fire was sounded
n 1T was found that it had made on
siderable progress in the rear of the
store OF MIR. l. 10. Burns in the Trayn-
nam d Dial block. This is one of the
handsomest blocks In the city on the
public square and West of the Court
House. Mr.. Burns room with o large
sIock OF furniture and general mer-
chandise valued at So, 000 and q vacant
room adjoining were consumed. MIR
Burns has $1,000 insurance which will
hardly save him harmless. Messrs,
Iraynham 81 Dial lose about 81, 500 on
their building which is covered by in
surance Messrs. Davis & Roper occu-
pied an adjoining building on the
south and only separated by q wall,
when 1elng in great jeopardy, their
splendid stock OF clothing, hats and
shoes was removed with incalcubablc,
damage. Their loss Ia very heavy, but
it is understood that their INSURANCE. is
considerable. We hope for an early
adjustment of matters and that these
enterprlsing business men of the city
VIII soon be supplying the wants OF
their great body of customecs The
Bendella Hotel was in great danger
and Capt. Clarke, the occupant suffers
Il small loss from the removal of furni-
turc. He is insured. DR.. B. f.. Martin,
the owner, is also insured, while the
injury to the building is not serious
only by the greatest efforts and sill
iui work OF the liremen, white and
colorcd, was q disastrous confiagration
avoided. To Mr.. j. II. Crows, head OF
the fire department and Chief of Po-
lice l.angstOn, much credit is due. The
male population OF the city was largely
