In that town in the past two months. The
.ncendiary is William Gallagher a negro
IS years old, who went to Jacksonville
last November from Springfield, Mass.
The negro has a reformatory record. His
capture was effected by IS stalwart farm
ers. who had been sworn in as deputy
sheriffs. At first the negro would admit
nothing. But after three hours qucs-
tioninE he admitted that he had set all
the fires and that he attempted to poison
the horses.
The last attempt at his dastardy work
was in the new barn connected with the
hotel where Gallagher was employed.
yesterday a hemp rope soaked in kero-
pcne was found running from the base
ment of the barn through the floor to
the hay. Word was passed around and

The first fire that he set was on july

the horses did not eat this. An out.
