Story of the |" Groundfog. !"

There is legend which has been the cause of observation for many years in this country by our pioneer farmers, and even the farmers of the present tune place more or less faith in it, which is queer and interesting to say the least We have reference to the fable of the !" Groundhog. ;"
 According to the story this animal is of very retired and timld disposition and makes it's home beneath tue earth's surface and only leaves this, gloomy and dismal abode or appears above ground upon one day of esea year. TEe weather conditions on this day are supposed to be,largely responsible fo, the following seasons. .Tbe second day of February is ,'.yGrounahog day, and he always leaves bis home in the bowels of the earth on that day to take a peep at the outsids world. If the

DEATH BY FIRE.
The City Hal! and Jail, With Two
 Prisoners, Consumed by Fire.

Sunday morning at $40 the alarm was given by Nightmarshal Rainbolt, who in his rounds at that hour discov- cred the city prison to be in flames. Immediately after discovering the fire MT. Rainbolt hastened to tho scene in the hope of rescuing two men whom he had placed in custody at earlier hours in the night, viz, Frank (Dock) ue- borne, a bricklayer, formerly of Si. Paul, Minnesota, who is wel-known to contractors and tradesmen througl : out this section, being union man. and having been employed on almost all public buildings. Hoborne had been employed by Contractor c. A. Ahlstedt, in erecting handsome brick church at Marianna, Ark, town about eighteen miles south of this city He was placed in the station house about 12:30 o'clock. The other occu- pant of the prison was one Chas. Noise tor Noice, and not Norris) timber man, who was employed at the Franks
  Bros. timber camp in the St. Francis bottoms. He was tall perhaps six feet or more, had red hair and mous- tache, high forehead, deep set eyes and prominent features. Information as to his nativity or former whereabouts is very meagre at this writing. Noise was locked up about ? o'clock, in the middle cell of the station, and it was in this cell that the fire originated. Every indication strengthens the suu- position that the prison was set on tire by him, though as to how or why. accidental or intentional, there is no clue, Noise was horribly burned, his arms and legs being burned off, and his features into an unrecognizable mass. Hoborne, who was in an ad- joining cell, was roasted though not so horribly, and suffocated, his body re. taining it's shape, and some papers, in clnding his union card, ana some sii- yer money was intact when taken up by the coroner. Both men were drunk
 
 when locked up,
 The fire companies responded prompt. ly to the. alarm but their vigorous and heroic efforts to save the building and it's occupants were futile The flames had gained too much headway before the fire was even discovered, the hour being such an unreasonable one, and the streets being deserted. Nightmar- shal Rainbolt did everything in his power to rescue the men, but was pow erlessin the face of the intense heat and smoke.
 The horrible affair is deeply deplored by tue citizens of this town.
 The coroner's jury composed of Heu- " Wilder, Lee Dougherty, N. W. Jackson, R. $. Stevens. A. B. Willis, Robt. Delano, Lyman Neel, J l.. Alley, Frank Chew, NJ. V. Hancock, A Meyer and Ben Gatewood, (co) rendered the following verdict: the deceased, Frank lDock) HobGne, and Chas. Noise, came to their death by setting fire to the city prison while in custo- dy."
