FIRE AT THE
BETHEL.
Blaze Starts in the Room Of a Mys-
ferrous Stranger, Who Has Not
Since Been Seen.

Columbia had a narrow escape from
serious conflagration Monday even
ing, the origin being shrouded in mys-
terry. On Sunday a stranger arrived
at the Bethel and registered as S. H.
Gaulbert, though he failed to enter
on the register his place of residence.
He was assigned to a room on the
third floor. He appeared at the Farm.
ers & Merchants Bank and the Maury
National Bank Monday and claimed
to be an inspector for the Burroughs
Adding Machine Co. He took the ma
chine from the Farmers & Merchants
Bank to his room to overhaul 1t and
later returned it. A bell boy, who
went to the room Monday afternoon
saw two bottles of gasoline and one
of coal oil in the room and found the
man sitting on the side of the bed
smoking. At about six o'clock one of
the employees of the hotel discovered
smoke pouring from the room and call
ed for Mr.. Dedman. The flames were
soon extinguished, but not before the
dresser in the room was partially des-
troyed and the room considerably dis
figured. There had been no fire in
the room, and the origin of the blaze
could not be discovered, though it was
evident that bottle of gasoline had
been broken on the dresser.
Gaulbert could not be discovered
and has not been heard from. He fail
ed to settle his board bill before TAX
ing an evidently hasty departure.

CARD OF THANKS.

To all the friends, who by loving
service, ministered to my husband in
his illness, and softened the bitter
ness of sorrow by tender sympathy;
also for the beautiful flowers, SO en-
blematic-in their fragrance-of a
well-spent life, desire to offer my
sincere, heartfelt thanks. May each
one follow the advice so often given
by the dear departed, that they "Put
on the whole armor of God, and fight
the good fight of faith" that they may
win an abundant entrance into that
city Whose builder and maker is
God" God bless you, every one.
