A Glasgow steamer was laboring in
heavy sea, the waves sometimes
sweeping her decks, but the officers
assured the passengers that there was
no danger, and al seemed reasonably
calm with the exception Of one meek
appearing little man, who, every few
minutes, would approach an officer
and anxiously inquire if he thought
the ship would founder.
"No, 7 tell you!" one Of them fin
ally exclaimed with impatiencc
"What is the matter with you9 Look
at those other people--they are not
scared to death.'

The piping of fresh air to cities Is
no longer dream Of scientists. 1t has
been practically tried, in an expert
mental way, in the crowded White
chapel district of London, under the
supervision of DR.. II. G. Lyon, one
of London's most eminent scientists.
The air is sucked into pipes by power
full suction pumps from some high
elevation where the sanitary condi-
tions are perfect and forced into large
storage tanks simialar to gas inks.
When stored in these tanks under
pressure, the pure air is distributed
in pipes leading into different houses.
The air can be distributed through
ppes upward Of fifty to one hundred
miles in length without losing any of
its purity. BY opening switch the
. customer gets his daily supply Of
fresh ar in his rooms, while the foul
air is allowed to escape through with

AMERICANS ORDERED
TO LEAVE KINGSTON.
Admiral Davis is Informed That His
Presence is Not Desir-
ed.

Kingston, Jamaica, Jan. 19-Rear
Admiral Davis mission Of mercy to
stricken Kingston came to an abrupt
and painful conclusion today in con-
sequence Of Gov. Swcttcnham s OBJ jec-
tion to the presence of American sail
ors engaged in the york of clearing
the streets, guarding property and
succoring the wounded and sick, cul-
minating in a letter to the admiral
preemptorily requesting him to re-
embark all parties which had been
landed.
Admiral Davis was greatly shocked
and panied and paid formal visit to
Gov. Swettenham today informing
him that the United States battle
ships Missouri and Indiana and the
gunboat Yankton would sail this af-
ternoon.
To the Associated Press Admiral
Davis said that immediate compliance
with Gov. Swettenham' request was
the only course consistent with the
dignity of the United States.
Beginning Of Friction.
The friction between the governor
and the admiral began with the arri-
val Of the American war vessels, when
the governor objected to the firing
of salute in his honor on the ground
that the citizens might mistake the
firing for a. new earthquake. He al
so declared there was no necessity for
American aid, that his government
was fully able to preserve order, tend
the wounded, and succor the homeless.
Rear Admiral Davis, however, land
ed parties of Blue Jackets who pat
rolled the streets, cleared the debris,
razed the ruins, attended many of the
wounded, receiving high praise from
citizens and military officers for en-
cellent work.
Relief Work is Suspended.
New York. Jan. 20.-Thc gathering
Of supplies here for the Kingston
earthquake sufferers by the Kingston
relief committee, it is expected, will
be discontinued tomorrow for the time
bein" at least. in view of the refusal
of the governor of jamaica to accept
aid from American war vessels. 1T is
quite probable that the supplies now
on the way to Kingston on the steam
ers. Allegheny and Prinz Joachim
will never reach that port. Both
steamers have been ordered to call at
Port Antonio and there await further
instructions.
A special meeting Of the relief COM
mittee will be held tomorrow when
the situation will be gone over and
definite action taken.

Beaufort, Jan. lo.--Today at half
past II O'Clock fire broke out in the
barn and stables of +. w. Schcper on
Bay street aud with stiff southwest
breeze il resulted in one of the most
disastrous calamities that has ever
visited the town.
From the commencement the fire
department was powerless and soon
the raging flames took possession of
the large grocery store Of the pro-
prietor and Tapped the large three
story building i'll the basement or
lower floor, where was stored n large
stock OF groceries and supplies, and
the Peoples bank, of which Mr..
Scheper is. president, was totally con-
sumed with it's contents.
The banks papers and property
were saved. including the large fire.
proof safe. Adjoining were a row Of
stores on the same side of the street,
and up to the corner were all con-
sumed.
The fire crossed the street and the
large and well stocked hardware and
paint store of Messrs. n. Christensen
| & Sons shared like fate and half a
block behind it was totally burned.
The fire crossed the next street and
consumed the law Office of Mr.. Thos.
Talbird and the 70 wof small houses
| that he owned, extending to the mar
ket, which was burned entirely. Then
it crossed the next street and the
town hall and counsil chamber were
total loss and the adjoining houses
between it and the Methodist church
were burned.
During the prevalence of the raging
and futlous flames the sparks were
blown in a northeasterly direction and
several smaller homes, including the
fresidcnce of Mr.. w. f. Sanders about
one-eighth of mile off caught and
from it the large and ancient mansion
of the Talbirds, owned by Mr.. Thos.
Talbird, was totally consumed. The
house on the opposite corner Of the
street occupied and owned by Mr.. J.
N. Wallace, recently handsomely re-
paired, was burned and next door to
it the residence of Mr.. w. j. Thomas
and his two rented houses, to the
back, were consumed.
Mr.. James M. Crofut's s store ada
cent 10 Mr.. Christensen store be,
came Il mass Of ruins, and the next
store. that Of Mrs. j. Levin, also was
nearl y consumed.
AT one time ii looked as if the
whole town would have been conSum-
cd by the mcrciless and dcvour1n2
Flames.
The losses are estimated roughly rs
equal to about $50G,--0 or $10O,000
upon which there is nor more than
perhaps onc-thir;l insurance.
Mr.. Scheper is pretty well insured
it is said.
Mc>>rs. Christensen, Thomas Tai
bird and James M. Crofut have ne
insurance whatever and their losses
are very great. Mr.. Thomas, it is re-
ported. is partially insured.
This has been one of the most
friehtful calamities that has ever Wis
tied Beaufort.
The flames are still visible at q
great distance. To add to the difficult
ties The water supply failed ana the
pipes were deficient and incapable OF
doin" much good TO subduc tho

TROOPS GUARD BEAUFORT.
Company Sent From Fort Screven at
Intendant's Request.-Blacks
Have Quieted Down.
The State.

The State.
Beaufort. Jan. 20.-NIurmuringS of
negroes today caused apprehension Of
IN uprising and the authorities at
once sought to secure military pro-
lection for the city. The intcndant
tclc9raphrd Col. r. w. Patterson, in
command at Fort Screvcn, Ga, ask
ing for Il company of regular troops
to be dispatched here for the prcscr-
vation of order. In response, at S.35
O'Clock tonight, r. men fully armed
and equipped for service, arrived un-
der command of Capt. Joseph Wheel
'er. The detachment came on the tug
Gibbons, and Immediately guards
were established and patrols formed.
The discontcnt among the negroes,
which it was feared might be famed
into fury, was caused by the killing
Of William Bennett, colored, by 4
guard at l o'clock this morning. The
negro was discovered hanging around
the ruins of the Peoples bank, one of
the buildings destroyed by the dis
astrous fire Of yesterday. TO the choi-
lengc Of the guard on duty there no
satisfactory response was made, it
seems, and the guard fired.
An inquest was held this morning
over The body of The negro. There was
doubt as to which of the guards had
shot the man. The verdict returned
was that he had come to his death at
the hands of parties unknown to the
jury.
The arrival of the United States
troops relieved the apprehension of
the citizens. The negroes, impressed
by the presence of the regulars. have
ceased their hostile demonstrations,
and the military apparently have the
situation will in hand. Their arrival
was welcomed by the citizens who
had been standing guard over valu-
ables saved from the flames, and who
i had been prepared to resist as they
might have been able any outbreak on
the part of the negroes.
Naval Militia Ordered Out.
Rumors Of trobule with negroes in
Beaufort as result of the destruc-
tive fire there Saturday were receiv-
ed here yesterday in the form Of a
telegram from mtcndant Townsend to
Gov. Anscl asking for authority to
call out the naval militia reserves to
protect property. Gov. Anscl at the
time the telegram was received was

The Meeting at the Christian Church.
Last nights meeting opened with q
large and attentive audience, TO lis
ten to brother Aliens sermon on
woman q devotion to Christ and the
Church." The strongest motions OF
the speakers soul seemed engrossed In
his theme and be carried with power
point to point In his sermon the sym
patty ane spiritual support of the en-
tire vast crowd, and the large number
OF women present seemed indicative
OF the fact that they were trying to
appreciate and reciprocate what Christ
had done for women. The strong
presentation Of Gospel truths put
forth In the sermon OF that crowded
house did not meet with that response
and acceptance which the word of
God and the condition Of many homes
In our city demands. Has the church
lost interest In the conversion Of the
world, and especially, their own child
rem and households. We must pray,
and'talk, and work for them. A good

all out again this afternoon and may
