The property belongs to Hero Taylor, a nonresident. The loss on building will amount to nearly 1,5O0, with $500 insurance. The furniture, almost totally destroyed, had been insured for $500, but the policy was cancelled at 12 o'clock today.
 The seeond fire destroyed two houses situated on Gulpha street, near Pleasant, and but for prompt work by the fire department large conflagra- tion would have ensued.

TOOK DOCTOR IN TOW.

Jonesboro, Feb. 9.-Dr. G. w. O.. Mitchner, who has been practicing here as a London doctor, was arrested Saturday night by the sheriff from Owensboro, H., and Sheriff Burke of this county, charged with forgery and unlawful cohabitation. It is alleged that he ran off with the wife of a prominent Illinoisan. He practiced at Memphis prior to coming here. He had elegant quarters at the Warner House.
 Gov. Davis issued a requisition late yesterday evening, the sheriff from Owensboro coming direct from Little Rock, taking him by surprise and es- corting him back to Illinois. Mitchner and the woman were we'll thought of here, having gone in swell circles of this city. He was graduate of Barnes College, St. Louis, and several others. Mitchner is we'll known in Memphis.
 pr. Mitchner's name does not ap- pear in the Memphis directory for 1901, or the previous year. His name had never been heard in police circles, and number of reputable physicians of whom inquiry was made last night, had no knowledge of such a man.
