Pire Destroys Property.

On last Tuesday morning fire broke
out III h55use occupied by Ncc!!!lii@
o..lIes, in Paradise Alley, and before
it could be checked, had destroyed
two large warehouses and a stable
owned by Chiles-Thompson Grocery
Co. and building used by Howe &
johnson, Agents for the John Hsuck
Brewing Co., of Cincinnati. The
warehouses were occupied by Ed Nit
chell, the Hardware man and l. f.
Tabb, the Grain dealer. Mr.. Nit
chell's loss was very heavy, as he had
just received many new wagons the
day before, and had only $4,000 insur-
ance. Howe s. johnson also report
big loss. The Chiles. Thompson Gro
oery Co. estimate their losses at 1900,
with only $1,000 insurance. The fire
was of incendiary origin.

Southern Industrial Convention

The Southern Industrial Conven-
ton will hold its second annual sss-
sion at Chattanooga May 10 to IL, in
elusive. The first meeting was at
Huntsyille, Ala, last fall and the
gathering WAS such notably success
full one that great things are now ex-
pected of the conference at Chattanoo-
ga. The convention is to be devoted
strictly to business matters; no politi-
cal discussion will be allowed; and
every effort will be made to elucidate
the problems connected with the de-
velopment of the South's great re-
sources.
The convention comes at q timely
moment. The great staples of the
South-her cotton, her iron and her
( wool-are now wanted everywhere,
both in this country and Europe. The
textile mil interests have been devei-
oping during the last year at rate of
speed that would be alarming were
not the advantages of locating the
mills by the fields so evident. Dur
ing 1899 more than 1925 100000 OF
capital was enlisted in spinning enter
prises, and the work Of organizing
new factories is still going on apaoe.
The coal measures are now receiving
attention they never got before, and a
vast amount of capital is being in
vested in blast furnaces and steel
mills and iron mines. The mineral
wealth of the South has always been
known to be vast, but heretofore capt.
tai has been slow to seek investment
even in the most favored localities.
Capital is still very much needed to
/ build railroads as we'll as mills and
furnaces. How best to secure it; how
to develop commercial and sgricnlIn-
raj interests-these are problems wOr.
thy of the best thought OF the day.
These will be discussed at the conven-
ton by an array of distinguished Sou
therners, and great practical sgood
should be accomplished. 1t is.grati-
flying to know that Louisville and
Kentucky will be represented along
with the Cotton States, for we must
be up and doing with the remainder
Of onr saction.-Courier-J

County Judge Purnell Of Bourbon
Meets With a Terrible Death
While Driving.

While out driving with his wife
one mile from Paris on the Eastford

buggy and killed. His wife escaped
injury.
Judge and Mrs. Purnell had driven
out in the county to get some plants,
aud were returning to the city. While
going down grade one of the shafts
became loose. The horse took fright
and started down the grade in a gal

animal, Judge Purnell pulled him out
of the pike and into a stone fence.
The collision threw both of the occu-
pants from the vehicle. Judge Pur-
nell was thrown against the fence.
His skull was crushed and his neck
broken. The ambulance brought the
body to the home in the city.

1t would be q savage as well as q stu.
