one of the best equipped news.
paper plants in the State, was
destroyed by fire last Friday.
The Repository had it's home IN
the Foust Building, a large BRICK
structure on North Main street,
and supposed to be fire proof.
About four o'clock IN the morn
ing, the wutchman in the boiler
room Was awakened by hre fall
ing in his face. He gave an alarm
but owing to the fact that the
tiremen were slow to respond,
and the apparatus on hand was
not IN working condition, there
was little to do but let the fire
take It's course. Fortunately for
the owners of adjacent property,
the fire was confined to the Foust
Building with the result of dam
aging it to the extent of $4,000.
The loss to the Repository Is
about $4,000. In the same build
ing was a boarding house and a
cigar store, the loss to the form
er beng about 81, ZOO, and the lat.
ter, about $4,000. With the ex-
ceptlon of the boarding house,

With Its usual enterprise, the
Repository made it's appearance
Friday evening, through the cour
tesy of the Public Opinion, and
just as soon as the transportation
companies can deliver new ma.
terlal, and workmen can put the
building IN shape, the Repository
will be better than ever.

TEN THOUSAND DOLLARS

Crider, of New Grenada, Has Re.
ceiyed Almost this Sum
FOR CARRYING UNITED STATES MAIL;

jacob Order, of New Grenada,
as was told in the News a short
time ago, has entered into a con.
tract with Uncle Sam to carry
the mail between New Grenada
and Wells Tannery for four years
from the first of July next. Sun.

ness for some time, and has prov
en- himself so capable and accom-
modating, that the patrons along
his route would feel 1T would be a
public calamity to lose his servlc.
es.
A representative of the News
found Mr.. Crider at leisure few
days ago, and elected from him
the following interesting facts
connected with his long term of
service: Mr.. Crider informed our
reporter that he had, during the
past Is years, made 1854 trips
from New Grenada to Hopewell
and return, a distance of 80 miles
for the round trip, travelling a to
tai distance of la, ,664 miles, and
IN all these years had missed the
mail train at Hopewell but twice.
For the above service, he received
from the Postoffice Departme ent
S,380.00. During 10 years and
months, he carried the mail
from New Grenada to Three
Springs, making 3,238 trlps-a
round-trip distance of 20 miles
each trip, or total distance trav-
eled of GA, ,760 miles. For this
service he received 50, 147.5O.
Hence the total distance travelled
on both routes, was 239, 424 miles,
and the total pay was SO, 527. So
an average of about four cents
for each mile travelled. To Offset
this, he, during that time, lost Z
horses, wore out 4 others, and
wore out cart, a blackboard, 2
two seated hacks, 2 three-seated
hacks, 2 slelghs, l sled, 4 sets of
single harness, 8 sets of double
harness, and iron enough in horse
shoes to make rails for a Fulton
county railroad. Mr.. Crider told
our reporter that he began the
business with nothing, and owing
to the small compensation receiv.
ed from the Government, he will
quit "worse than nothing"
When pensions come around
for those who have spent the best
part of their lives IN the public
service, Mr.. Crider should not
be overlooked.

Hutchinson declares, though he
does not call it free lunch. He
says that 1.-The farmer doesn't be-
come a victim of heat in summer
like the city man. He doesn't
white down his appetite with
sandwiches, pieces of cheese and
other inconsequentials which lie
on lunch counters where city men
go to quench their thirsts."
Boston is sure DR.. Hutchinson
was talking about the free lunch
when he said this.
A sandwich alone may be all
right, but glass of whisky, DR..
Hutchinson thinks, II taken with a
sandwich, is worse than whisky
without the sandwich. He explains
this by saying the whisky works
on the sandwich in the digestive
organs and uses up the heat of
the body
The old theories that some
kinds of foods had more value
than others because they make
more heat ought to be exploded,
DR.. Hutchinson says. He believes
future books of medical science
will not have this theory in them.
To sum the whole matter up,
DR.. Hutchinson believes that If
previous rules for hot weather
health are violated. the people
will get along lot better than
they have been doing.
