A WARM HOUSE.
The Ministers Take o Crack at Each
other.

A bout between Rev. j. w. Big
ham, Presiding Elder of the Prin-
ceton district and Rev. Dupuy,
pastor of the Presbyterian church
Of this place, at the Cumberland
Presbyterian church last Thurs
day evening, was the talk of the
town for day.
AT the close of the lecture deliv-
cred by Mr.. Likens, the Anti
Saloon League man, Rev, Brigham
was called upon for talk; and, as
is we'll known by those who have
heard him on any occasion, he is a
vigorous talker, and in the course
of his remarks he sxcoriated church
members for their attitude on the
liquor question, stating that the
Baptist, Metodist and the Presby-
terians we're responsible for the
liquor traffic in this country.
Rev. Dupuy arose in the audien-
ce and said:
prove it"
Bigham replied that he could
and would, and when he finished
his argument, Rev. Dupuy ex-
claimed:
THAT is bad logic, and l want
to enter my protest here against
this mans charge that the blood
bought church OF Jesus Christ is
responsible for the cursed evil"
will you take that side of the
question:" demanded the man who
had the floor.
II will" replied Rev. Dupuy.
"Then name your time and
place." said Bigham, land what |
will do to You will be plenty"
This ended the warm passage-at-
arms between the two popular
ministers, but the town is still
talking about that trough house"

by the floods was probably Dosis
Hill. He had ten acres of tobacco
ready to top and only thirty plants
we're left. His corn was also wash
ed away, and the farm was very
materially damaged.
Livingston creek was five feet
higher than ever known before.
Judge Rochester went out to
see about the Dry Fork bridge,
and found that it had been picked
up off of the bents and set down
near by. He thinks it can be set
back for from $50 to SIS.
Nelse Roberts lived on the head

Mr.. Mott is an old man, and
according to report, has been an
exceptionally good prisoner as to
department.
The law provides that the Prison
Commissioners may make rules
and regulations for paroling per-
sons confined in the penitentiary.
Persons in prison for murder may
go on parole after they shall have
served out at least ten years of the
term. Persons sentenced for a
felony, other than rape or incest,
and who have not been previously
convicted and served a term, and
who have not been insubordinate
TO the rules and regulations may
be allowed to go on parole outside
of the building and enclosure, but
to remain and be in the legal Gus
tody and control of the commiss-
toner's, and subject at any time to
be taken back and confined, when
ever suoh convict shall become
disobedisnt to the law, or the COM
missioners shall deem best. Pa
rolled convicts are, when they re-
main in the State, required to
report their place of residence and
conduct to the commissioners,
through the county Judge, at least
every six months.

JAMES H. MOTT.
May be Released From the Psnniten
tiary on Parole.

Last week County Judge Ro-
chester received from the Prison
Commissioners a communication
that indicates that James H. Mott,
convicted in 1892 of the murder OF
LATE Mott, in this county, is about
to be paroled out of the peniten-
tiary to which he was sentenced
for life. The commissioners
wrote to the county Judge asking
him to certify as to the resposi-
bility of S. S. Sullenger, of this
county, who proposed to be res
ponsible for the conduct of Mott
and for his return to prison, in the
event the commissioners so order
and who proposed to buy Mott q
suit of citizens clothes and pay
his fare home.

FIREAT TOLU.
J. W. Guess 4 Sons, Store Burned
Early Tuesday Morning.

The big general merchandise
store of j. w. Guess q Sons, al
Tolu was destroyed by fire about
2 o'clock Monday morning.
About that hour parties living
near the building were awakened
by noise and observed a small
light, not much larger, than q
lamp, in the house. In few mo.
ments the interior of the building
was in flames, and the fire spread
so rapidly that it was beyond all
control before those aroused by
the alarm could reach the scene,
and the building and warehouse
with the contents of both, were
rapidly reduced to ashes.
The firm carried a large stock OF
general merchandise and did a big
business; the house was one of the
best bushes houses in the county
outside of Marion.
The origin of the fire is moi
known, but there is strong i'm.
preston that it was the work Of
an incendiary.
The loss is estimated at between
$500 and $1,000. There was
81, 900 insurance on the stock and
81 800 on the house.
