Big Fire IL Sumter.

Nineteen buildings and about $40, ,00C
worth of property was destroyed by fire
in Sumter last Monday night. The fire
started in the mule shed Of EpperSon's
stable lot and, owing to the quantity OF
combustible matter, the fire spread like
a tornado. In the vicinity of Epper-
sons stables were lot of shanties oc-
cupied by colored people and they
added fuel for the flames. The fire de-
partment did all in its power, but the
flames had too much to feed upon for
them to do much good and and it took
the most heroic efforts to stop the fire
at Craig's workshop.
The following, taken from the Sumter
Item, is statement of the losses:
The total loss is estimated to be be-
tween $4,000 and $4,000 with about
$4,000 insurance, distributed as fol-
lows:
Geo. F. Epperson, loss $4,000 to s2O,-
900; insurance, $500.
J. D. Craig Furniture Company, loss,
5000 to $1,000: insurance, $500.
Il. Hardy, loss, $3.50; insurance, $500.
Sumter County, loss, 81, 900: insur-
ance, S4,500-S4, 900 on new jail, which
cost between $4,000 and $4,000, and
$500 on the old jail.
Mr.. Epperson's loss is the most com
plete that has occurred in Sumter in
many years. OF twenty-five horses ten
were saved; of more than hundred
buggies and carriages, four were saved;
OF more than 8 hundred wagons, four
were saved, and of a large stock of
mowers, rakes, harness and agricnltu-
raj implements, not thing was saved.
The Craig Furniture Company lost
their entire stock of caskeCs, coffins and
furniture of AL kinds, except what was
il the brick store, which was used as a
show and saleroom for furniture and
contained only one of each article car
ried in stock, the bulk of which was
stored in the three warehouses which
were burned.
The county was the next heaviest
loser, the old Jail, upon which it would
have been difficult to place a valuation,
is complete loss. The new jail, cost
ing more than S9,l0O when erected a
few years ago is badly wrecked, every
thing burnable in it having been burned
out, but the walls are apparently intact
and it may be repaired.

Come to the opening Of the New
York Racket store, on another page you
will read the date. Mr.. Till has been
up North visiting the markets where
in person he made selections which he
could not have obtained from samples.
He was on the spot and got inside
prices, and this puts him in position
to do some heavy slugging for the
trade. Till is no Rip Van Wrinkle
when it comes to catering fossthe trade.
He will be found showing the most in
ducing prices to catch the shekles, and
if an elegant display of drygoods, shoes,
fancy goods, clothing, tinware, china
ware, novelties and millinery can in
duce an attraction of visitors to his
store, then on Till's opening day the
crowd will be immense.
The New York Racket store is among
the most progressive establishments IN
this section of the State and its proprle-
tor is in business to expand. He re-
turned from the markets prepared to
sell goods cheap, he brought the goods
to sell cheap, and to convince the pub
lie of this fact he extends a most cor
dial welcome to the public,

as follows: Wheeling, Bridgeport,
Barnesville, st. Clairsville, Benwood,
Flushing, Barton, Maynard, and, in all
probability, Bellsire. The system that
is being built is the most modern and
the service given so far by the company
is very satisfactory.
Last evening about seven o'clock,
when several of the officers were IN
the jail, officer Krieger found an OLD
shovel al the north window. The
blade of the shovel was almost gone,
but left a blade about four by SIX,
which made a dangerous weapon. How
the old shovel found its way into the
Jail is a mystery, but it is supposed
some one showed it through the bars,
but in order to do so they had TO
climb over a small house and jump
from a roof, distance of about
twelve feet. The finding Of this Old
tool fully shows that some one from
the outside is up to something, and
whether it means for the inmates 70
break jail or was it placed there TO
be used to strike an officer when ~
entered the jail. 1t is hoped that the
new door will be placed soon and that
screens will be placed over the bars in
the windows.
