Notable Case at Edgefield.

Edgefield, Special.-The Court of
Common Pleas has been in session at
this place since last Monday, the Sth
inst. The first two days were con-
sumed In the trial of the cases of
Carley against the Southern Rail-
way and Mack Davis against the
Western Union Telegraph Company.
In the former the jury failed to agree,
mlstrial being entered. A non-suit
was granted in the latter, the plain
tiff failing to show that he suffered
any damage as a result of defen-
dant's negligence. On Wednesday
the case of j. 7. Patterson against
the Farmers Bank of Edgefield was
commenced. Although the Court has
since been continuously engaged in
Its hearing. the end is not even in
sight, the possibility being that it
Will consume rot only this week, but

counsel being engaged on both sides.

was destroyed by fire early Thursday
night. The fire spread rapidly, and S.

stables. and several negro tenant
houses belonging to f. C. Stann, were
damaged or destroyed. Wylie G. Co.
also lost considerable supply of
balcd hay, number of new wagons,
and other valuable property, includ-
ing their stables and sheds. For
tunatcly all live stock were saved.
The fire department did splendid and
effective work, and at $50 O'Clock

ened to sweep large part of the bus

tically subdued.

State Education Board.

Columbia, Spccial.-The State
board of education met Thursday in
the Office of the State superintendent
of education. All the members were
present except the representative of
the Sixth district, who has not been
appointed, the place being vacant on
account of the election of w. J.
Montgomery as State senator. The
report of the high school inspector
was heard, and the board scaled sew
eral schools that had not complied
with the regulations of the high
school act. The report was exhaus-
tive, and Prof w. H. Hand, the in
spector, was commended for the
thorough presentation of facts and
conditions. Four counties had al
ready received more than the amount
which can now be paid out under the
law, and of course all high schools
in these counties will not receive as
large an appointment as was made
last fall.

Fire at the Fair Grounds

Columbia, Special.-Fire of un-
known origin destroyed two sections
of the racing stables at the State
fsir grounds at an early hour Tues
day morning. Eighty stalls were
burned on the south side of the
grounds, and but for the prompt and
efficient work of the bucket brigade,
operated by the workmen of a carni-
val company show, which are quar-
tered at the Fair grounds, the flames
would doubtless have DESTROYED the
entire stables in that section of the
racing quarters. The property loss
amounted to $1,000, but about half
OF the loss is covered by insurance.
Secretary Love of the Fair Associa-
t!on, said Tuesday That the work
of rebuilding the burned section of
the stables would begin at once. as
a series of races has been arranged
Tor the spring, and it would be
necessary 10 have the entire stables
ready for use, as the horses expected
to participate in the races will need
the full accommodation of the stables,

Municipal Utilities Urged.

Lexington, Special.-Electric lights
and waterworks for Lexington are
being agitated by the citizens now,
and there will be a public meeting in
the near future to discuss the advis-
ability of the town voting on the
issue of bonds 10 secure an electric
light plant and complete system Of
waterworks. This subject has been
discussed before, but it has never
taken on serious proportions until
recently. The property owners realize
1t is said, that insurance would De
very much cheaper with a good water
system and the amount saved in in
surance alone aside from the many
other advantages to be derived would
soon pay for the cost of putting in
the system. But few towns in the
State, as well located as Lexington,
are without electric lights, and the
people here realize that they can i'll
stacord to be behind other towns along
vle line of progress.

Will Reforest His Land.

Aiken, Special.-A great deal of
interest has been manifested here in
the avowed intention of Mr.. T. 1.
Hickman, president of the Granite
vile Manufacturing Company, to re-
forest about 1000 acres of de-timber-
ed land around Graniteville These
lands were many years ago cleared of
all timber, and it is the intention of
Mr.. Hickman to retimber it, thus con-
verting what is now barren land into
valuable forests. Mr. Hickman is
negotiating with the department of
forestry of the Government with n
view of getting national aid in the
matter. Mr.. Hickman states that it
is probable that he will have the work
done in the near future. 1t is prob
able that the lands will be sown with
seed of timber, instead of transplant
ing, as it is said that pines do not
readily take root when set out.
