There was an alarm of fire given last Sat
urday hight at about $3.50 o'clock. The
whistle at the power house sounded the
alarm and it was found that fire had broken
out in the basement of the colored Metho'
dist church at the west end of town. A
lamp had set fire to the ceiling on one eide
of the church. 1t is supposed the lamp
had exploded. The fire was put out with
buckets of water before much damage was
done.
1t has been determined to have county
fair next Fall. Some new and interesting
features will be added. Every citizen of
the county should determine to lend a
helping hand to make the exhibition a
success. Tazewell is among the finest
agricultural counties of the State, and as
grazing section it is without rival. A
Government expert has decided that Taze-
we'll has the best bluegrass sod on the con-
tineLt.
