Big Fire at Martin.

MARTIN, Tenn, Sept. 2S. Ear
ly Saturday the freight depot,
which was being repaired, was to-
tally destroyed by fire. 1t is not
known how it caught, although
some FAY that an incendiary did
the work, and others that it caught
from spark from an engine, and
still others that boys were prob
ably in there shooting craps and
accidentally dropped fire among
the shavings. A great deal of
freight, such as dry goods, station
cry, tobacco, household furniture,
ETC., was stored in the building
waiting to be handled. The loss
is estimated at from $4, 500 to $6, :
900 on the freight, and from 81, \
900 to 81, 200 on the building.
As there have been several fires
here recently, the people met this
morning and passed resolutions de-

vided the fire was of incendiary.
origin.
A motion was made and carried,
in case the fire was of incendiary
origin, that reward of $3.50 be
offered for the arrest and convic-
tion of any person or persons
guilty of arson. The chairman
appointed J. E. Kennedy and {.

taking subscriptions from citizens

MANILA, Sept 80. "A disastrous
fight between United States and

the island Of Samar, near Balingi-

A large body of insurgents at
tackled Company 9, Ninth Infant
ry, only twenty-four members Of
the company escaping. All the
others are reported to have been
killed.
The company were at breakfast
when attacked and made deter
mined resistance, but the over
whelming numbers of the insur-
gents compelled them to retreat.
OF the survivors who have ar
rived at Basey, eleven were wound

According to the latest returns,
the strength of the company was

Thomas w. Connell, First Lieut..

twenty-six.
SAW SERVICE IN CHINA.
Company G was a portion of
the Ninth Regiment of the United
States infantry, which went to
China at the time Of the Boxer
outbreak, and while there per
formed valiant service. Later the
troops went to Manila and we're
engaged in provost duty in that
city. During the past summer a
battalion of the Ninth was sent to
Samar.
All the officers connected with
Company q, which was almost
wiped out by the insurgents, are
named in Gen. Chaffee's dispatch,
there being no second lieutenant
now with the company. Capt.

During the trip Gen. Corbin
visited the island Of Samar. Ii
was just seven weeks ago tonight,
he remarked, when discussing the
disaster TO Company G, that he
was talking with Gen. Hughes at
Iloilo about the condition of Of

King Of Farce.


The king OF farce comedies-that
avalanche of pure unadulteated
fun, "They Want Me-" will be the
attraction at Walkers Opera-house
Friday night, October 4. The
same strong cast that for the past
two seasons has been associated
with this celebrated comedy is
again In evidence this season.
While ], H. La Pearl is one Of the
best known managers the stage
can boast of, strange to say, none
of his attractions have ever before
visited the Southern States. Sc
lecting the best of comedies under
his control and the cream of the
actors and actresses from the hum
dreds he employs he concluded to
introduce himself to the theatre
going people of the South, hoping
and trusting his efforts will be re-
warded by those words so dear to
managerial ears-come again.
They Want Me" is now so we'll
known by all who keep in touch
with the stage it is hardly neces-
sary to outline its good qualities.
The famous Independent Hotel,
the exciting horse-race scence at
which old-time neighbors ventilate
a grudge, Henreich Mayer and his
troubles, Mary Ann Simpkins, the
poor, silly Arkansas girl, which
Miss Nellie carman has made ia
nous from ocean to ocean, her
faithful dog Toppie and the cele-
brated symphony orchestra, are
few Of the features.
The comedy is generously inter
spersed with specialties, the mer-
riest and the best the vaudeville
stage is heir to. and rendered by
artists who have no paAt in the
comedy. This company is under
the personal management of Mr..

no undertaking, however difficult, can
daunt the gritty Yankee, provided there

pending the entire mountain range in

dividends. The very soul of the
American runs into dividends.
To illustrate this faculty of the
American to overcome any difficulties,
| will remind you of the man, who had
been travelling for his health. Un-
doubtedly he is the. only genuine and
living American who ever done any
thing purely for his health. Among
other remarkable things observed he
witnessed some natural phenomenon
out in Yellowstone park. Let him tell
it.: "ln one place everything was
petrified. The broOklet which once
was purling down the mountain side,
was petrified. The trees and flowers
were petrified. A steer, which had
attempted to jump over the brook was
overtaken and hung suspended in the
air-petrifed. CIots of moss, kicked
up by the jumping steer also hung in
the air, petrified" Here some one re-
marked that such things conficted
with the law of gravity. "Well," he
answered, "but the Law of Gravity was
petrifiedw Who but an American
could destroy, annihiate and mummify
the Law of Gravity without jar and
a blush!
In some things the Americans are the
best informed people in the world.
Among these something's" | may
mention politics and money making.
Speaking of education in broader
sense, doubt if they come up to the
inhabitants of northern Europe. The
American, however, more than makes
up for the deficiency by his ability to
grapple with and solve pending prac-
tical problems. He snaps his fingers
at theory which cannot be applied
practically.
