ESrly NIorsing Fire.


This morning a little after Q o'clock
an alarm OF FIRE was sounded, caused by
the discovery of ire in the old tumble
down building below Peter McFarlane's
residence on Eureka stleet. A strong
wind WAS blowing at the time, but fortu.
nstsly blowing down the street, as other.
wise it would have been a hard matter
to have saved Mr.. McFarlane's house.
The fire apparatus was quickly on the
ground, and the volunteers with the as
sistance OF good water pressure, soon
had the flames under control. The fire
vas caused from fire in an old stove
that had been left in the building. Last
evening tramp was seen entering the
building, probably intending to spend
the night there, and built the FIRE in the
stove. The night watch afterwards ar.
rested the tramp and put him in Jail.

Macon, Ca, April 27.-The express
ear of the Central of Georgia railroad
was robbed between 1880 and 1850
in the morning by two men who
boarded the train at Macon. The car
was going through from Atlanta to
Savannah. The express messenger
was ]. N. White and the conductor
Henry Morgan. Some time after the
train pulled out of Macon the two
men, who had secreted themselves
in some way, entered the express car
and confronted White. They seized
and bound him hand and foot and
threw sack over his head. They
went through his packages and Sc
cured about $3.50, but left $1,000
package lying on the floor. They
were unable to do anything with the
safe, as it was a combination affair.
The messenger was uninjured when
discovered by the conductor. The
robbers left the train at the village
of Gordon, 20 miles from Macon.
