A Terrible Weapon.

The weapon common to every part
of HinduStan, so as to deserve the
name OF the national arm, is the "ka-
tar" This is a broad, two edged dag
ger, the hilt Of which is formed some
thing like an II, the hand grasping the
crossbar, which is generally double,
while the side bars extend on each side
Of the wrist.
Some katars are made with five
blades, which unite into one, but by
squeezing together. the croSsbars di-
verge like the fingers of a hand when
the thrust has been given. Other ka-
tars are made in sets of two or even
three, of diminishing sizes, the blades
of the larger being hollow and forming
sheaths for the smaller Some Of the
southern Indian katars, known as
death givers,' are immense weapons,
nearly two feet long in the blade, and
work and NEUROLOGICAL holsters, the
cobra with expanded hood figuring
largely. There is also the "bich'hwa,"
or scorpions sting, a doubly curved
dagger; the "khanjar," n larger form
of the same, and the ''peshkabz," or
hunting knife. But none of these elab-
crate weapons has about it the terri
bly, "businesslike" look Of the khyber
knife (ch'huru), with its ponderous sin
gle edged, tapering blade and plain
ivory hilt-Chambers' Journal.

Emergency Medicines.

1t is a great convenience to have at
hand reliable remedies for use in cases
of accident and for slight injuries and
ailments. A good liminent and one
that is fast becoming a favorite, if not
a household necessity is Chamberlain's
Pain Balm. By applying itpromptly to a
cut,..bruise burn Grit allays the pain and
causes the injury to heal In about one
third the time usually required, and as
1t is an antiseptic it prevents any dan.
ger of blood poisoning. When Pain
Balm is kept at hand n sprain may be
treated before inflammation sets in,
which insures a quick recovery. For

COTTON MILL
STORE BURNED.
Fire Destroyed $4,000 In
Property.
WAS L SURE
Firemen's Efforts Saved
Cottages.
The Origin OF Fire Is Not Known But Ii
Supposed to Have been Acciden-
tal-WiU Rebuild.

The total destruction of the store of
the Laurens Cotton Mills Company at
midnight Monday night involved q loss
of about $50, O00-$20,OO0 in the stock
of general merchandise, clothing, DIR
goods, furniture, drugs, shoes and gro
ceries and $4,000 in the building.
The fire had gained such Roadway
when discovered that he firemen we're
unable to check it but their exertions
saved the neighboring cottages and
protected the mill oflices-the latter
said to be the handsomest mill Office
building in the South and directly
across the street from the store.
Had the flames once reached the cot
tages the damage would have been
much greater.
The store was q two story and base
ment brick building about so by ITO
feet, fronting on Fleming street, in the
heart OF the mill village and three
quarters OF u mile from the public
square OF the town. There Is no con
lecture us to the origin of tho fire, but
it was doubtless accidental. 1t was
first discovered in the rear, south west
ern, basement or first floor corner.
The loss is fully covered by insurance
the entire mill property being covered
in mill company mutuals.
President Lucas will commence at
Onc to rebuild, stating while the fire
was still burning, that an architect
would be wired.for yesterday morning to
prepare sketches for Il new building.
Meanwhile, u temporary store has
been fitted up in the village for the
convenience of the operatives.
The odd Fellows, Junior Order of
American Mechanics, Red Men and Or
der of Rebecca had their lodge rooms in
the second story of the building and all
of their paraphernalia was destroyed.
The fire was one of the hottest ever
seen here. The building burned slowly
aud when it was nearly ready to fall in
the structure and contents were like a
red hot brick kiln. AT one time, sew
eral barrels of kerosene burned and the
flames shot up fifty feet or more above
the roof, making a dazzling spectacle.
The new lire-bell gave the alarm for
the first time. 1T is said to have
aroused people as far out as Mr.. II. b.
Bells, three miles, or further Others
say that the bell is not a success, that
the oun is not clear but is as though

GUESTS MAKE STATEMENT.
What They Say of the White Stone
Robbery.

We, the undersigned guests Of White
Stone Lithia Hotel having noticed 10
the various papers throughout the
State, numerous articles concerning
the recent robberies from the rooms of
this hotel, believe that great Injustice
has been done Mr.. Harris. At the
earnest solicitation of guests from
whom articles of value had been taken,
he was induced to make q search for
the recovery of the lost property. He
did so and made a search of the effects
of one of the guests, who was suspected
by almost every guest in the hotel.
While none of the lost property was
recovered, we are informed that sufi.
clent evidence was secured by the ex-
animation OF the suspected party to
warrant the suspicion and to Justify
MI. Harris in his search. We feel
confident that Mr.. Harris did all he
could to recover the lost property taken
from his guests. We heartily approve
of his actions in the matter and believe
in the coming trial before the courts
he will be thoroughly indicated. And
we would further state that up to the
time of the arrival OF the suspected
party no valuables were missing from
the rooms and since the departure of
the suspected party we have not heard
OF a single article being missed.
