Fierce Forest Fires.
Columbia Record, March is,

Columbia Record, March is,
Forest fires are raging all around
Columbia, doing enormous damage
to the property of the land owners
and destroying hundreds of feet of
valuable timber. The fires were
started on the lines of the Seab osrd
and Southern roads and are supposed d
to have been started by the sparks
from the engines, although it is re-
garded as little peculiar that all of
them should have started at once. Ga
the Sesboard the fire started about
March llth and has gone all through
the counties of Kershaw, Richland
and Lexington. In Ksrshaw the fire
has spread toward the north, and q
passenger On the southbound train
this morning stated that the farmers
all along the line were fighting tic
spread of the flames. On the South
ern the fires are along the Charlotte
road between Blythwood and Col
umbia, having started about the 10Th,
but so far no damage has been done
the roads property.
An attorney for one of the roads
this morning said that this meant q
large number Of damage suits would
be filed against the roads in the
various counties through which the
roads passed.

minutes than q monkey does in q week
But there Is man in a Maine town
called Unity, who has elected an eremitic
life with cats as his family, and he is
getting records Of their utterances by.
means Of monographs. He says he has
worked out their system, and he goes out
nights when his toms are particularly nu-r
steal, and talks with them, in their own.
language. After all, why not: What
the monkeys OF hens or cats say can be
Of no possible Importance. That they
understand it among themselves is sure

himself with these matters, he is very

himself with the speech of his average

Judge Parker's friends at the capital

having about SIG votes out OF the pos
sible 1000 in the Democratic national
convention. That estimate would give
him 149 more than the necessary G6Z,
two-thirds of the convention required to
nominate.
This estimate gives 106 votes to Hearst

cludes Illinois in the Parker column.

the Detroit builders have conceded the

concession in 1904.
