factory of the Telephone Manufacturing Com

ea,ire factory would be total loss. Howev,

and by quick and we'll directed work succeed

The varnish room and all un6olsbed work in
1t was a total loss, portion of the machioe
room was burned and the main part Of the
factory was damaged by 6se and water
The loss is difficult TO estimate until
thorough examination has been n nade, for e
great deal of the material and electrical sup

useless when tested. For instance, thou

Mere 3dle Rumors.
General Manager Sands Says There is no
Foundation for Any of the Reports Regard
ing the Sale Of the South Carolina
and Georgia.

A reporter Of The News and Courier called
upon General Manager Ssrds, Of the South
Carolina and Georgia Railroad, yesterday to
ask whether there was any Truth in the report
as to the purchase of the South Carolina and
Georgia by the Southern R,ilrosd.
Mr. Sands said that 20 attention should be
paid to such vague rumors He bad been
asked within the last few da7s whether The
Seabosrd Air Line was not purchaser O
the South Carolina and Georgia, and then
again be heard it was the Coast Line which
was supposed to be bidder for the property.
Mr.. Sands said it was certainly gratifying
to the management of the road to know that
so macy people desired to have it. All be
could say was that the present owners were
vigorously pressing forward work on the
road in way that must erd in immense
advantage TO Charleston. The Sumter
branch was largely graded already, and 10
month or two trains would be reaching to
territory which could not DOW trade with
Charleston.
On the Ohio River and Charleston, or
South Carolina and Georgia Extension, as 1t
is now called, the line would soon be at
Cliftoo and Spartanbnrg and open up new
cosnections for the road and the port Of
Charleston. So far as the main line Of road
was concerned, already nine miles of 70.
pound steel rail had been laid in the last few
weeks, nine more are nav being put down
and eighteen more uiles ia the course Of the
summer, making tbirty-,wo miles of new
iron altogether
The terminals of the road had been vastly
improved and its connections in the way of
foreign trade by water ard with the interior
by rail we're being extended continually.
The management of the road recognized
fully that the Lire street station was out of
date, and their engineer was now 10 town
looking over the situation with view to
meeting the wishes of the citizens of Charles
ton if possible. These were facts which
could not be denied and which certainly Gid
not seem to warrant any report Of an inme-
diate charge Of hands
Before General Manager Sands could be
seen The News and Courier had takea steps
to interview important officials of the South
ern on the same subject. To Inquiries seat
them these gentlemen replied without hesita-
,ion, and emphatically, that there was
absolutely no truth whatever in the reports.

REEL SQUADS WORK APPRE-
GATED.
Telephone Manufacturing Compa
ny Express Thanks Substan-
TALLY.

The work Of the Fire Department is adpit'
ted by all observers to compare favorably
with that of the best organized departments
iu the larger cities, and On every occasion
that has demanded quick and intelligea'
work to prevent serious and costly FIRE tie
two reel squads have proven fully equal to
the emergency. The most recent fire a'
which they demonstrated their ability as FIRE
fighters, was the see at the Telephone Fac
tory, and that good work wes done all who
have vieited the factory since the FIRE ere
willing to admit.
The reel squads saved the factory from en-
tire destruction, snd what would otherwise
have been heavy loss was held down to
few thousands by checking the flames before
toe n,ain building was seriously damaged.
The Board of Directors of the Telephone
Manufacturing Company appreciate the good
work cf the two reel squads, and they have
expressed their appreciation in graceful as
well as substantial manner. % Saturday
afternoon each reel squad, Monaghan No 2

NATURAL WOODS IN RucciEs.
They May Largely SuppIant the Old Styl
Painted Vehicle.

From the Chicago Chronicle
The conventional black-painted bug
gy will have sharp competition next
season by the revival of the demand
for natural woods. Already many of
the buggy manufacturers have laid in
large stocks of fine woods and are max
ing them up in a large number of light
pleasure vehicles for single horses
Many samples are shown in windows
around the city and the bouleyards
give promise of having light colored
rigs galore for next year.
The woods are highly polished and
in beauty will compare with the hand
soonest pianos. Birch. bird s-eye maple
and oak will be the woods most gener-
ally used, because, while they finish
beautifully, they are the cheapest. The
oak will be stained N some instances
giving it the rich gold and darker
shades.
Mahogany and beech are the kinds
selected by those who prefer the deep
rich red shades. Mahogany also gives
considerable variation in color, that
portion near the heart being darker
than the part close to the bark of the
tree. Careful matching of the shades
produces a charming effect. Ash and
poplar augment the yellow shades
Hard maple has a good even dark color
and walnut ranges from dark 10 light
One order has been placed for red ce-
dar, and it is said TO be coming out of
the preparatory courses a remarkably
handsome production.

BUILDING IS NOT SAFE
South Side School Condemned by
the Inspector.

Liable to Collapse Any Day When
There Is a Heavy Wind-walls of
the Building Are Mani

Missoula, Sept. Ill. NJ Patterson
the prominent Butte architect, came
over from the metropolis last night, at
the request of the Missoula school
board, and made to-day an inspection
of the South Side school building,
which has been thought to be unsafe
Mr.. Patterson made his report to the
school board tonight.
He says that the building is not safe
1t may fall down tomorrow, and it
may last for years, but the risk is too
great to take. The danger does not lie
in the weighing of the upper floors.
but in the face of a wind in a severe
storm. He believes that heavy wind
would wreck the building.
The walls are manifestly unsafe, and
the school board will not. of course run
any risks. What is to be done will be
announced in a short time when the
board has finished its consideration of
the matter.
The problem is a serious one as this
building is the one that is used by the
high. school, and by all of the children
in the primary grade on the south side.

Gently met a young lady of this city
who is the owner of interests in that
district. While at the Copper Cliff camp
this young lady won fhe admiration
and devotion of Read, who became
veritable heartsick swain. He came to
Missoula for a short visit and registered
at the Florence hotel. Last night, while
he was sitting in the Louvre at one of
the tables, he fell to the floor, appar-
emily unconscious. He was taken to
the Sisters hospital and this morning
was much improved in health. He sent
for an attorney and the young lady and
when both had arrived he proceeded
to make his will. He made the object
of his affections his sole legatee, and
then expressed himself as willing to
die. There does not seem to be any
immediate probability of this event
coming off right away and the officers,
whose attention was called to the at
fair, are of the opinion that the young
man is making a grand stand play.

ing rapidly before the eyes in a good
bright light, will make any one admire
it, while the more sentimental will be
in raptures. Cypress is much like the
sycamore, fanny and reddish but not
quite so brilliant. Rosewood and Cir
cassian and French walnuts are mag
nificent and will be used in many. In
these buggies the dash as well as the
body will be of the finest pieces that
we can get, and we expect to have the
year that can be found anywhere
There is no reason why the buggy
should always be black-no more than
there is reason . person should always
wear black clothes, and a natural wood
buggy, in addition to its fine appear
ance, is cheaper to keep and requires
little work to keep it clean. Even when
dirty it is presentable."
