great surprise in this city and in
the section where he resides.
Sheriff Eggleston says he has
enough evidence against him to
warrant arresting him and he
will hold him for developments.
That the case will be stubborn

AN OLD LANDMARK GONE
FIRE SUNDAY MORNING DOES AWAY WITH THE
OLD ROBERTSON HOUSE ON SECOND
AVENUE NORTH.
Delay in Turning in the Alarm Gives the Flames a
Good Start Handicapping the Fireman--S3, 900
Insurance on the Building.

The dwelling house at No. 624
| North Second avenue. owned by
Mrs. John S. Robertson, and oc-
cupied by the families of Mr..
Nose Leech and Mrs. Ida
Stewart, caught fire at an early
hour Sunday morning and was
practically destroyed before the
flames could be subdued. The
fire was discovered by Sam
Hairston. a negro who runs a
meat market on Main street. and
on account of the fact that some
delay was experienced in secur-
ing telephose connection Officer
BrazealIe, TO whom Hairston re-
ported his discovery, was com
PEELED to go on foot TO fire head
quarters and give the alarm.
The department responded
promptly as soon as notified, but
when they reached the burning
building the fire had made such
great head way that it was i'm
possible to check the flames un-
til after considerable damage had
been wrought, the upper story
of the building and great deal
of furniture which that part of
the house contained having been
totally destroyed. Some of the
furniture was owned by Mrs.
Stewart, but most of that which
belonged to her was saved, and
her loss is very small hardly ex-
ceeding $500. The heaviest
furniture loss falls on Mr.. Nose
Leech and Mr.. &. II. Mathis,
both of whom lost nearly all the
furniture they had The build
ing was occupied by Mr.. Mathis
family before Mr.. Leech and
Mrs. Stewart moved in and his
furniture, WHICH was stored IN
one of the upstairs rooms. was
almost total loss. Mr.. Mathis
was not ia the city when the fire
The Columbus weekly dispatch. (Columbus, Miss.) 1902-1905, 1904-11-03

occurred, so It was impossible TO
ascertain the exact va'ue of the
goods destroyed. The young man
ia charge of his Office stated. how
ever. that he thought the loss was
fully covered by insurance.
Neither Mr.. Leech nor Mrs.
Stewart carried any insurance
but Mrs. Robertson had a policy
for 100000. on the building.
which sum will fully cover her
loss.
The origin of the fire seems to
be somewhat of a mystery. The
flames started in an out building
just in the rear of the house, and
Mrs. Stewart stated to a DIS
PATCH reporter Monday that this
house had not been in use since
she has been occupying the pre-
misses. When asked if it had
ever been used as q dumping
place for ashes she said that it
had not. all ashes and refuse
from the house having beeR
emptied in the garden, at least
twenty or thirty feet from the
house. Neither she nor tbs
mem bers Of the fire departm at
could give any theory as to the
origin of the flames.

RECENT FOOT BALL GAMES.
The A. and NJ. Again Loses While the
University Heavyweights Pile Up
Another Victory--The Season
Drawing TO a Close.

The great prestige in the foot
ball world which, last year, the
A. & M. College gave promise
of exercising, has been lost this
year and it lies behind such a Sc
rieS of defeats that it IS almost
impossible for the team to re-
trieve It's lost reputation, to re
gain it's withered laurelS before
the season finally draws TO a
close. Beginning with disaster
in this city when the club went
down before the University of
Alabama the boys from Stark
vile have met a series of defeats.
Following the game with Tusca-
loOsa here the University boys
at Oxford were encountered on
the field and the latter easily
outplayed the A. & Mites. The
last game played by the A. & M.
was with Tulane in New Orleans
last Saturday Again their colors
were trailed in the dust, the
score being ten to nothing in IA
vor of the Tulane club.
The University at Oxford has
been playing great ball this sea-
son and it added another Water
loo to its list last Saturday when
it defeated the Southwestern
University team from Jackson,
Tenn. by a score of la to moth
ing. The University has one of
the best teams in the South and
it promises to increase in weight
and strength next season when a
mum Der of fast men will be add
ed to it which are barred this
year under the one year rale.
Columbu will make = bid for
many of the great college con-
tests next year and on account
of our central location here, the
good grounds and the fine sup
port accorded the contests, no
doubt a large number of them
will be played here.

DISTRIBUTING GAME FISH.
Several Thousand Put in Mississippi
Waters the Past Week. Some
Being Removed
Here.

Congressman Gambler has had
sent to large NUM- Der of sport
men in this section requisite
for game fish. These requisi-
tions will be filled out by these
gentlemen and filed with the de-
partment and on the occasion of
the next visit Of the government
fish car to this section they will
be awarded whatever their req
uisitions call for.
There is a general movement
10 this section among the men
who enjoy the sport of the rod
and reel to. in a measure, re-
plenish the streams and lakes
around this city with game fish
and to that end the number to be
asked for this season will be
greater than ever before. The
kinds of fish asked for are all
game fish, such as bass, white
perch, Dream, etc.
In this connection the govern
ment car has just visited this
section and Messrs J. A. Goree,
VIM. Bailey and others received
consignments of bass, white
perch and other fish. Mr.. Go
rec put three hundred and fifty
black bass in his pond. the gray
81 pit pond. at the entrance Of
the fair grounds. and about a
hundred white perch.
The car has been in MISSISSIPPI
pi for the past ten days and hav-
ing distributed it's cargo it has
been returned to st. Louis
where another cargo will be OBJ
tanned for distribution in this
State The distribution is made
under the direction of Mr.. w. E.
Smith, of the bureau of fisher
les of the United States Depart
ment of Commerce and Labor.
In talking of the subject Mr..
Smith gives some interesting
figures concerning this matter.
In an interview he said of his re
cent visit to this State:
I'VE have distributed ia Mis-
sissipp the following fish on this
trip, $500 black bass, 4.50O
rock bass, 2,450 crappie, LOO
Dream, $50 cat fish. The car
started from Bellevue, Ia. We
obtained the Dream at the Tupe-
10 fishery. the rock lass at Ne
shoba. Mo. and the black bass
in Iowa.
Distribution was made 10 the
following towns of Mississippi,
for local steams and ponds:
Starkville, Macon, Shuq ulak,
Bonneville. Jackson. Corinth,
Liberty, Aberdeen. Amory, Boil
ton, Alderman. Newton, Center
vile, Gloster. Purnell, Itfabena,
Moon Lake. Isola, Islandsle.
Winter City and Columbus.
The custom Of obtaining fish
for local streams or ponds is to
make direct application to the
department, which is then re
ferred to the local departments.
It requires about a years time to
have the application passed on
aud secure the fish.

CABIN Burned.

A cabin located near the tracks
of the Mobile and Ohio railroad
On South Eighth avenue. owned
by Mr.. H. j. Dashiell and occu-
pied by a negro woman named
Celia Abbott, caught fire about
seven O'Clock last Monday night,
and although the fire depart
ment responded promptly, the
building was too far gone when
they arrived to be saved, and was
totally destroyed by the flames.
The Abbott woman and Oliver
Stewart, a negro man who had a
room in the house, both lost a
considerable amount of fun niture
and wearing apparel, though by
the efficient work of the fremen
and some of the neighbors some
of the furniture was saved. The
only explanation of the origin of
the fire is that it caught from
sparks from a passing locomo-
tive, but no one seems to be ex-
actly certain regarding tn e
matter.
