CHARGED WITH
HOUSE BURNING.
An EdgeheId, s. G., Farmer and His
Son-in-Law Held for Trial.

sOn-in-Law Held for Trial.
Columbia, S. c., March 11.-At
Greenwood yesterday a preliminary
hearing was had before Magistrate
Austin of the case against ]. n
Schenck, a prominent farmer of Edge
field and his son-in-law, Marion Bur
nett, formerly of Greenwood, but now
living at Saluda, charged with having
burned the residence owned by Mrs. NJ.
+. Addy, which was being used as a
graded school building. This structure
was mysteriously burned down last
November.
The first witness examined was E.. F.
Waldrop, who testified that on Tues
day last, while repairing a fence at
the site of the house, he found a bun
die hid in the hOneysuckles which COW
cred the fence. Unwrapping it he found
two-pint bottles of kerosene, four rolls
of lint cotton in which powder had
been sprinkled and also a letter. This
letter bore the postmark of Saluda,
and also the receipt stamp of the
Edgefield postoffice and was addressed
to ]. n. Schenck, requesting him to
come up and burn the Addy house. The
signature, the prosecution claims, is
that of Marion S. Burnett" while
the defense has already served notice
that the signature is Marion S. Bur-
nett" and, therefore, not even good
forgery.
After hearing other witnesses Judge
Austin bound the defendants over to
the approaching term of court in the
sum of $1,000 each.

GRIER'S CANDIDACY
FOR CONGRESS.
His Home Town Does Not Think He
VIII Cut Much of n Figure.

Dublin, Ga. March 1.-THE infor-
nation sent out from Brunswick a few
days ago that Mr.. Clark Grier of this
city would oppose the election to Con-
gress of Hon. w. G.. Brantley, came
as complete surprise to the people of
this section who had no idea that Mr..
Grler entertained an ambition to rep
resent the district in Congress.
Mr. Grier is reputed to be the strong
est Republican in the Eleventh dis
trict but as strong as he is with his
party that he could possibly be elect
ed under the most favorable circum-
stances is not believed by the most
timid Democrat.
Mr.. Grier is a good politician, a good
business man and a good citizen. Were
he Democrat he has many friends
here who would aid him in having his
ambition to represent the Eleventh dis
tllct in Congress gratified.
Although Mr.. Grier is the strongest
man the Republicans of the Eleventh
district could possibly nominate, his
most sanguine supporter can hardly
expect him to make much of a race
against Congressman Brantley. Mr.
Brantley has served the people of this
district in an able and acceptable man.
ner, and will continue to serve them
despite Republican opposition just as
long as he desires to do so.

WORTH C0UNTY'S
COURT HOUSE CONTEST.
After rs Years Agitation Is Likely
TO Re settled Next Week.

TO Re settled Next Week.
Triton. Ga. March IA contest
lasting for twenty-five years will prob
ably be settled by the voters of Worth
county at the polls next Wednesday.
When the Brunswick and Albany
Railroad was built in 1872, it ran
within three miles of Isabella, the
county seat of Worth. Soon after a
movement was agitated to move the
Court House to the railroad, and later
an election for that purpose was held,
but failed because the required ma
jority was not secured. In later years,
as towns in the county grew in im-
portance. one after another made a
bid for the county site, and seven diff
ferent elections have been held, in
which thousands of dollars have been
spent and much bitterness and fac
tional strife engendered. The constant
fear of removal paralzed the growth
of the county site, Isabella, which is
now no larger than when the agita-
ton began, twenty-five years ago.
In the meantime, Sylvester, the
nearest railroad location to the county
site, grew and prospered until it is
the leading centrally located town in
the county, ard as il has no opposition
in the election to be held on Wednes-
day next, there is a strong proba bility
that the Court House of Worth will
be removed to the railroad at last
The people of Sylvester have offered
TO bear all expense of removal, donat-
ing a site and erecting new public
buildings for the county, free of charge
To guarantee this they have deposited
$4,000 with the ordinary of the county
There appears to be a strong senti-
ment in the county in favor of removal,
and as there is only one place in the
county in the race, there is a prob
ability that Sylvester will win easily.
