The Denison Herald says: usher

The Denisou Herald says: 'Sher-
man is going to use the spht-log
drag on all her streets after every
heavy rain That is another step for
ward for sherman and If the use of
the drag is kept mp faithfully in two
or three years sherman will find
that she has some very fine dirt
streets. The Herald believes the split
log drag to he the very best iustru-
meur To use en- dirt roads and
streets in the black land country.
Used after every heavy rain. as has
been heretofore stated, it makes a
sort of coating over the surface of
the street and this after continual
dragging finally becomes SO hard
that it is almost like rock and can
hardly be penetrated with pick.
And what yill prove good for Sher-
man would prove equally beneficial

FIRE AT LAFAYETTE.
Depot. Three Cars and Warehouse
 Are Burned.

I.aFayette. October 15-(Special )-Abont ? o'clock yesterday morning fire was discovered in the depot of the Central of Georgia railroad in this place. The alarm was made and soon the entire town was aroused, hundreds rushing 10 the scene. Before any effective work could be done, the flames had enyeloped the old unsightly wood structure. Great efforts were made to prevent the fire from snreading. but the flames leaped to three freight cars standing on the side strack' which could not be moved on account of the excessive heat Several cars had already been moved and saved from the flames. These three cars were all loaded, two with cotton, one with merchandise. and they were taken rapidly by the angry flames The fire spread from the pufn- ing cars to the platform and west end of the Allen warehouse and soon 1t was clear that all efforts to save this pulio- ing would be futile and the cotton was being rapidly removed from it when on account of the heat 1t had to be sur randered Heroic work prevented the fire from spreading further. and saved the Planters warehouse, just across the mar row street from the burning one. Near ly three hundred bales of cotton were de- stroyed. chiefly covered by insurance.
