Which Had Made Great Headway
Before Discovered.
WHEN THE CLERK AWOKE SLEEPERS
The Hotel Property Damaged to the
Amount of $4,000.

San Angelo, Texas, Aug. 10.-A fire,
discovered m the Landon Hotel at
o'block this morning by the night clerk,
destroyed the structure entirely, burn
ing people to crisp and doing property
damage of S75,00O
All of the bodies that have been re-
covered are fearfully charred and in no
condition to be moved, except in blank
cts.
When the clerk discovered the flames
the interior of the dining room was a
gulf of fame and he could not get
through. He rushed up the main stair
way, kicking In doors, calling out at
the top of his voice and making noise
every way within his power. Most of
the guests were aroused by this means,
and by the discharge of firearms as
some of the guests got out. There were
seventy five people in the horse, and
all of them got out safely, with the ex
ception of seven and three others who
have not been located, but who are be-
lieved to be safe. The seven womeI
and children got out on the gallery ant
were appealed to to jump into blankets
which were held for them, but they
feared to do so and delayed until th'
gallery fell back into the flames, whicl
were licking up the lig frame house.
In addition to the hotel, three stable
and half dozen stores were burned
only the greatest effort preventing tn
whole of the business part OF the tow
from going.

'Mariied-Miss Sylvia Rhodes to Jas
Carnahan, last Saturday evening at
ths baptist parsonage. The bride is an
ordinary town girl, who knows no
more than rabbit about cooking and
never helped her poor mother three
days in her life. She is not beauty by
any means, and had a gait like fat
dnck. The groom is wall known here
as an up-to-dats loafor, has been living
off his old folks all of his life, and don'i
amount to shucks. nohow. They will
have u hard life while they live together

CONVICT FARM SYSTEM
VIII Reduce the Tax Levy if Crops
Turn Out Well.
Special to the Daily Progress.

Special to the Daily Progress.
Jackson, Aug. 11.-Capt. J. M.
Parchman, warden of the peniten-
tiary, expresses the belief that the
convict farm system of the state,
providing crops average we'll during
the period, will justify reduction of
the state tax levy of nearly twenty
five per cent dnring the next four
years. He expects the revenues of
the penitentiary to increase rapidly
during the yeriod, and is pushing the
work of getting the $4,000 acre Sun
flower farm in shape for cotton culti-
vation. Captain Parchman's idea
sounds almost like an Utopian
dream, were it not for the fact that
he is generally recognized as the
premier farmer of the south. and his
success in the management of the
penitentiary since the convict farm
system was adopted is well nigh
phenomenal.

With No Other Serious Charge
than He was About to
LEAVE THE COUNTY BETWEEN SUNS
With His Household Goods-A Case
that Needs Investigation

The Franklin Advocate says: News
reaches here of the lynching of a negro
John Mcdaniel in the neigh oorhood OF
Smithdale, Amite county. on Friday
last. Mcdaniel will remembered as the
negro who, about to months ago was
shot and seriously wounded while at
tempting in the night time to move his
household effect. from the premises of
Mr. ODE Williams whose place is just
across the line in Araite county; state
ment of which was published at the
tune. The negro was so badly wound
ed at the time that it was thought until
recently he could not recover and had
remainled at the house of Andrew Jack
son, negro, where he had crawled
through the woods after being shot and
was there still confined 10 his bed when
taken Friday night last by those who
sought his destruction and carried
about mile and swung into eternity.
McDaniels father who lives in the
neighborhood of Veto, this county was
in the house with his son on Friday
night when two men both strangers,
suppl csed to be officers came aboat the
hour of midnight and took the negro
on the pretense of carrying him to tb'
county Jail at Liberty. Nothing more
was known of him until his dead body
was found on Saturday morning hanging
to limb. Here is crime that shoul'
be investigated to the very bottom, ant
) the murderers of this defenceless negr
, be brought to justice and made to pa.
the penalty of the law in its fulles
sense. The good people of that com
munity and the officers of the Law
. should leave nothing undone to ferrs
+ out and cause the arrest of such crimi
Il nails as they must now know to be

AN ALPHABET PARTY.

In response to neatly printed invita-
tons sent out by the Misses Dunaway
about thirty young people assembled on
Tuesday evening last at "Melrose," the
beautiful home Of Rev. and Mrs. Way
land f. Dunswsy, aud more pleasant
evening would be difficult to imagine.
After numerous amusements, which
were all new and entertaining, the guests
were invited to the dining room for re-
freshments. Upon returning to the
parlor each gentleman chose lady and
the Alphabet Party began Many
opinions had been offered as 10 what
would be the nature OF this amusement
and some had even gone so far AS to learn
the alphabet backwards, but those who
did had their trouble for nought. Eight
small tables were placed Ia the room and
numbered, two ladies and two gentlemen
being seated at each table, upon which
were 20 cards each having letter printed
thereon. A subject was then given
birds for example-snd as the cards were
turned over the one first naming bird
beginning with the letter turned captured
the card and scored a point. When the
alphabet was completed the lady and
gentleman holding the greater number
OF cards went up-to the next table while
the unfortunate contestants retained their
seats and tried their chances with new
couple. = Numerous subjects were given,
such as flowers, furniture, cities, names
OF Lancaster people, fruits, vegetables,
counties of Virginia, etc. The lady and
gentleman scoring the highest number
OF points were each awarded handsome
prizes. A more amusing form Of enter
tainment than the Alphabet Party"
afforded would be hard to find. After
Rotations by Miss Julia Chiffon, Rev.
Waylsnd +. and Clarence Dunaway the
hour OF midnight having arrived the
party dispersed. one and all feeling that
the closing hours of the year had been
the pleasantest Of them all and trusting
that theincoming year might bring many
such delightful evenings.
