he caused the eviction of twelve fami-
lies from company houses.
Mr.. Markle says the father of the
boy Chippie was killed as result of
his own negligence. He was not in
debtee to the firm at the time of his
death. His earnings for the previous
six months amounted to $3.50. Mrs.
Chippie paid nothing for rent or coal.
Henry Coll, one of the evicted men,

the highest earners, and five of the
lowest, the highest receiving $4,000

Police Gather in But Few People Sat
urday and Sunday.
From Mondays Daily.
Saturday and Sunday were unusual
ly light for the police, and only two
names have been added to the roll at
the police station as result of police
court this morning. One of these is
that of Charles Page, Chocolate Char
ley" the colored man who told Judge
Moon in confidence short time ago
that there is something in his throat
that is always calling for whiskey.
Charley listened to the pleading Satur-
day night and in a short time the little
voice was drowned by that of big,
burly policeman, who escorted the col
ored man to jail. This morning he
got three days in jail, and Frank Sny--
der, who was also iRsGxicated, got
three also. Joe Bush and Ed Jen-
nings, two men who have been in the
county Jail for some time on the
charge of larceny, were arrested Sat
urday night. one for vagrancy and the
other for intoxication. Both were re-
leased this morning on their promise

van at Hamilton Friday night, Mar
shal A. g. .McGaugh and Constable a.
G. 'Beanier placed Borden under ar
rest in this city yesterday. Borden is
about 80 years of age.
Robber May Die.
Knoxville, Jan. 5.-The wounded
man who was shot near Hamilton
Friday evening while robing P. Sulli-
van, lies here in the county Jail in a
critical condition, and DR.. Cornell, who
has been attending him, fears that
blood poison will set in at any time,
as is often the case with gun shot
wounds. Jailer j. D. Farmer, who has
spent a large part of the day with the
prisoner, says that he absolutely re-
fuses to divulge any names, and pro-
fesses to know nothing of his accom-
plices, whose whereabouts are still un-
known. Sheriff Bybee has gone to Mt.
Pleasant, but no clue of the escaping
robbers has been round. Jailer
Farmer, who has spent much time
with the captive at Knoxville is in
.clined to believe that the wounded
man is noted and experienced ban
dit, and that his story to the effect
that this was his first attempt at rob-
berry, is simply a plea for leniency.
Every feaure of his indicates that he
has always been man of leisure, and
accustomed to extravagant living.
His clothes are of excellent quality
and his hands are soft and white as a
woman's. His left cheek is badly lac
Grated and blood oozes out constantly
Unless the wound begins healing soon
the physicians say he can not live.
The officers are keeping close
watch over him, and no one has been
allowed near his cell.

Seattle, Wash, Jan. 5.-Chinook
winds and warm rains prevailing for
several days past have caused the
snow in the Cascade mountains to

have risen rapidly as a result, over

many places. Tracks and bridges
have been washed out on nearly all

BUILDINGS ARE BURNED TO THE
GROUND.
Blaze Does Damage to the Amount Of
4,ooo-citizens Make Strenuous Eff
forts to Save Property, but Are
Handicapped.

Hayesyille, Jan. 5.-(Special.) )-Fire
which was discovered early Sunday
morning in the hardware and imple-
ment store of R. Crabb entirely de-
stroyed the store and spread to the
residence of G. r. Crabb and the shop
of B. B. Jacobs, consuming the two
latter buildings and threatening sew
eral other structures, entailing loss
upon the owners of about $4,000, part
ly covered by insurance.
The alarm WIS promptly given and
the citizens of Hayesville were strenu-
Gus in their efforts to save the burn
ing buildings, but the flames had got
ten beyond all control.
Discovered at 1890 o'clock.
About 1870 o'clock, Mr.. and Mrs. R.
Crabb, who had been sitting up with a
sick child, saw the flames as they
darted forth from the building occu-
pied by Mr.. Crabb as a hardware store.
By the time the people of the town
were aroused and had reached the
scene of the fire, the flames were be-
yond control. so that the building and
none of it's contents could be saved.
The flames spread rapidly to the res
idence of G. R. Crabb just west of the
store and only by the most heroic eff
forts We're the fire fighters able to save
the furniture from the house. The
shop belonging to B. B. Jacobs, the
first building, east of the store, also
caught fire and efforts to save it from
destruction proved fruitless.
Fire Fighters Injured.
A most strenuous effort was made
by the citizens of the town to stay the
fury of the flames and In the fight sew
eral of the men were quite seriously
hurt, Albert UIterback and Noah
Shively being the most seriously in
jured.
