A FIRE IN LEE COUNTY.
Supposed Work of an Incendiary.-A
Suspect Arrested.

Bishopville, October 12.-The fine
two-story house belonging to the es-
tate of John z. Muldrow, deceased,
about six miles from Bishopville, was
burned yesterday morning at about I
o'clock.
The house was built by Mr.. Null
drow some tweieve years ago, he dy-
ing soon after it's completion.
After his death MS widow moved
back to her maternal home, in
Orangeburg. renting out the farm. in
Guiding the buildings.
For several years it had been rent
ed by Ben Cooper, worthy, indus
trious negro, who cultivated the farm,
raising good crops Of both cotton and
grain.
Nothing positive is known about the
origin of the fire, but it is suspected
that it was the work of an incendiary.
A thorough investigation will be
made at once, and the affair probed
to the bottom.
A suspect has already been arrested
by our active deputy sheriff, Mr.. H. E.
Monaghan, who will continue to
work up the case.

Indications Are That Jos. A. N1cCul-

Columbia, October 11.-There are
strong indications that the Prohibi-

J. Bristow for lieutenant governor.
At the conference held here a few
weeks go both these men opposee

days issue of the Baptist Press, edit
ed at Greenwood by Mr.. Bristow, he
nominates Mr.. Mccullough for COVER
nor and advocates putting out tick

1t is significant that the editorial
fayors county control of the question.
LET US have prohibition law, but
where it will not be enforced, let It
not be farce" says the editorial.

The MURRAY CASE.
THE Ex-CoNGREssMAN HAS No
IDEA OF FoRFTTTING BOND.
His Attorney Will Endeavor to Have
the Case Reopened. Failing in
That an Effort Will be Made
to Secure Pardon.

S By the decision handed down Thurs.
day by the tribunal of last resort in
the State, the decision of the Circuit
Court in convicting Of forgery, Ex-
Congressman George Washington Muir
ray, stands affirmed, aud the three yea r
sentence in the State penitentary must
be sesyed aud the fine of s250.00 i'm
posed by the court must be paid.

thing pathetic in the thought of his
sudden descent from the lofty position

unworthy of belief.
The report that he expects to absco1d
and fo1fsit mis- bond Of 5000 is wholly
without foundation In fact. Murray
was In the city, and stated Wednes-
day, that he was not sensi-
bic of any moral wrong that he had
committed and tearfully asserted that
he was the victim of circumstances,
and that he felt sure that ne would
yet be riehted.
His attorney, Maj, Marion Noise,
will endevor to have the case reopen
ed, and failing in that, a petition will
be presented to the governor for a
pardon. Nothing will be left uudone
to keep the conVict's stripes of the
