started up its 5oo-gallon per minute
pump and from that on there was a
strong head of water.
Much property, including househo d
furniture, pianos, ETC., was removed
from the burning houses and the de-
livery wagons of Gilbert, keinhart, PAS
auale, Muller, Random & Johnson and
others were very helpful IN the work O.
rescue.
There is a difference of opinion as TO
the length of time it took to get a good
head of water. Some say At was an
hour, but when one stops TO think that
the fire started in the place of Mrs.
il is plain to see that the estimate of
time is very wild. Some say that in
three or four minutes there was p.enty
of water. County Treasurer Hoenstine,
who he ped to pull the hose wage 10
the fire, says that it was probably 10
minutes after the alarm was given be-
fore a good head of water was on, but
LC odHS tia "tACi Az dio SOAiG ~ Fo2
a strong head. Others say the water
was on in no time. while others say IL
was more than Is minutes. The Silver
State regards Mr.. Hoenstine as a man
not easily ratified and fair to every one.
His judgement of the time is probably
correct. When the water from the
pump was on the gauge showed a pres
sure of 60 pounds to the inch, enough 10
throw water TO the height of 120 feet.
The company former y run it's pump
with electrical power from the powef
house south of town. but fearing a fire
would break out and destroy the line.
the company put in a 50-norse power
engine about one year ago. Had .ne
town depended last night on electrical
power for the water the flames wou d
nave ragged until they burned them
selves out.
The Silver State extends it's sympathy
to all who were unfortunate in tn )
morning s fire, and trusts it will never
again have occasion to record such a
catastrophe.
IT was unfortunate that some lengths
of hose burst when most needed, mus
causing some delay, but the fire boys
did all that was within her power to
check the confiagration.

would have acted differently. Mere
party dvantage should not be sought
from the disclosures made in this in~
vestigation. But the facts should be
diligently sought, that they will insist
upon legislation making it a criminal
offense fer officers to contribute cor>
porate funds for political purposes
and depriving the apparently success
full candidates of their officers.
Efforts in that direction have been
making in different States since No-
vember last, and particularly in this
State. But the Republican organiza-
ton would not consent to it, so the
legislature defeated the bills. And the
organization never will consent until
an aroused public sentiment shalt
threaten legislators with political OBJ
livion who fail to enact laws upon
the subject.

TWO FIRES FRIDAY.
DR.. Smiths New Home Destroyed.
Mr.. Bruce Lynam's House Damaged.
insufficient Water Pressure.

About 5 o'clock Friday afternoon
the fire department responded to an
alarm sent in from Golden Hill. There
was only a small blaze in a negro
cabin, which was extinguished before
the hose was stretched. There was
little damage.
Later in the afternoon, about
o'clock. a. second alarm came in, this
time from box 2s. The pretty resi-
dence of DR.. Mood Smith, which was
nearing completion and into which he
expected to move by the first of next
month, caught fire from the roof, sup
posedly from the dropping >of cigar
or cigarette in the building by some
curious person on a tc lr Of inspection.
The house burned furiously, the fire
being so intensely hot as to render ac-
cess to the building almost impossible.
The water pressure was entirely IN
ADEQUATE, and it has come to pass
in Sumter when it seems futile to at
tempt to save burning building, and
all efforts are exerted towards pre-
venting the adjoining house from
catching. Especially is this true, when
the building is some distance from the
principal water main.
The house burned to the ground
and the residence Of Mr.. Polk Lenoir,
which is adjoining and owned by Mr..
Bruce Lyman, was damaged to the
extent of $3.50, which was fully COW,
cred by insurance. Dr.. Smith had
$1,000 insurance with the Sumter In
surance Agency on his house.
A strange fatality seems to have fol-
lowed this house. Some months ago,
when the frame had just been raised,
a wind storm blew it from its founda-
ton. The people of the community
generally sympathize with DR.. Smith.
