$40 HIDES IN ONE BELT.
Southern Saw Mill Company Gets
Largest Ever Known.

The largest and most expensive
leather belt ever made has just been
completed in New York for the Great
Southern Lumber Co. OF Bogalusa,
La.
1t is of three-ply leather, 240 feet
long, six feet wide, and it took the
hides of $40 Texas steers to furnish
the material. 1t has been shipped
to the owners, the express charges
being $243.07. The belt is intended
for driving the large band saw It's
extraordinary length is due to the
fact that the ground conditions of
the mill are such that the engine
has to be a good distance from the
mill proper. If belt that long was
made any thinner or narrower it
would not stand the resistance it en-
counters.

SEABOARO KILLED A WOMAN
Passenger Train From Montgomery
to Savannah Has a Heartrend-
ing Accident.

A Seaboard Air Line train from
Montgomery to Savannah had very
heartrending accident at Claxton.
The train struck and instantly
killed Mrs. Joseph Hall, SO years of
age, just as it was beginning to slow
up for the station The train was
stopped as quickly as possible and
the engineer ran it back to the scene
of the accident, but Mrs. Hall was
dead when picked up by members of
the train crew and carried into her
home

Feared For Little Girl.

The accident resulted from the
fear of Mrs. Hall that her little
granddaughter. a child of three
years, would be struck by the train.
She had sent the little girl on an
errand across the tracks of the Sea-
board, and, hearing the train coming,
became panic stricken for fear the
little one would be struck by it.
While the child was in no danger
Mrs. Hall seemed to think she was,
and started across the tracks to bring
her back home. She was too late
in her effort to cross the track in
advance of the train, and the engine
struck her while it was going at a
rather fast rate of speed. Her body
was thrown some distance from the
track and when spectators reached
her side the lady was dead.

Old Negro Not a Suicide.

Batesburg, April 12.-On Satur-
day morning it was reported that
Allen Sample, an old negro man llv-
ing near Baxter, had accidentally
killed himself with shotgun. Later
developments seem to throw differ
ent light on the occurrence, and it
now appears that the old man was
murdered, presumably by some mem
Der of his own family.
Allen was about Is years old. 1t
seems that on Saturday morning he
was in a room by himself when the
discharge of the gun was heard and
an investigation showed that he was
dead from wound in the head. Acci-
dent and suicide were both mention
ed, but an examination into the mat
ter by Coroner Clark and a jury re-
vealed that the shooting was done
with an old fashioned single-barreled
gun of the muzzle loading type. The
location of the wound showed, more
over, that the charge had entered
directly back Of the head and had
ranged directly forward, shot that
could hardly have been fired by the
deceased without certain regalia,
which regalia was not in evidence.
The jury of inquest returned a
verdict that the deceased came to his
death by gunshot wound made by
the hands of parties unknown.

JURY ACQUITS ACCUSED.
Men Accused of Young Game War
denis Murder Freed.

At SIS o'clock last Friday night
the jury in the Reeves-McAlhaney
case brought in a verdict acquitting
Arnold McAlhaney and Merriam
Reeves of the murder of Presley
Reeves, the young game warden,
who was assassinated near Branch
vile last September. The jury re-
tired about $50 o'clock and brought
in the verdict less than two hours
afterwards.
The evidence in the case was con-
cluded Friday morning. This came
rather as surprise, for it was un-
derstood that the taking of testimony
would consume the entire day. The
defense did not put any witnesses on
the stand. The young wife of the
slain man was in court Friday morn
ing. The young woman occupied
seat within the bar just to the rear
of the prosecuting attorneys.

BRAVE DEED BY FIREMAN.
Norfolk Chief Prevents the Destruc.
ton of q Hotel.

Norfolk, Va, April 12.-Fire orig
mating in the bottom of the freight
elevator, where plumber overturn-
ed a lighted candle and ignited
paint brush, threatened serious dam
age to the Monticello hotel to-day.
While the fire was confined to the
cellar, the smoke filled the outside
from top to bottom, and from the
outside it looked for time as
though the building was doomed.
Finding it impossible to close the
windows to the elevator shaft from
the inside, Fire Chief Mclaughlin
went to the roof, seven stories, and
with a fire belt around his waist, was
lowered from the outside, shutting
the windows and cutting off the
draught as he descended. He reach
ed the fifth floor just in time to pre-
vent negro chambermaid from
throwing herself to the street.

Thought Floyd was Democrat.

Washington, April ia pecu-
liar situation has developed with re-
spect to the appointment Of post
master at Spartanburg, to succeed
Col. S. T. Poinier, who died recently.
A few days after Col. Pointer died
Mr.. M. w. Floyd came to Washing
ton armed with numerous petitions
from some of the best people in
Spartanburg endorsing him for the
place. Everything seemed to be 60
ing his way, and it appeared that
the sending of his name to the SEN
ate would be only matter of few
days until the usual regulations
could be gone through with.
However, during the last few days
it has developed that some of those
who endorsed Mr.. Floyd are now
anxious to have their names taken off
the petition. They allege that at the
time they gave their endorsement
they thought they were getting
Democrat, but that in reality it turns
out that Mr.. Floyd is Republican.
The officials here have been notified
of a change of feeling on the part of
some of those who signed the petit
tions for Mr. Floyd. But as the sit
uation is entirely unusual there does
not seem to be any way just now out
of the matter No one wants to go
to the president and tell him that
because Mr.. Floyd is a Republican
he should not be appointed, especial
ly in view of the fact that as ap-
pears from the records these en-
dorsements were given Mr.. Floyd as
a man, and because of his high stand
ing with the people of Spartanburg,
and not because of his politics. 1t
seems now that unless those who
asked for this appointment are able
to show some good reason why Mr..
Floyd should not be appointed other
than that he is Republican, he will
eventually land" No move has
beeen made in the case lately, and
it is not known what will be done.

MUST TAKE OUT
HUNTING PAPERS
EX-PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT, BE-
FORE HE HUNTS IN AFRICA,
OF $3.50.

Before Theodore Roosevelt may
lift his gun to shoot on the African
continent he must obtain a license at
a cost of $3.50, which will entitle him
to kill 60 animals. Among these he
may include, observes Van Norden's,
two elephants (male only, two rhi-
noceroses, two hippopotami, two ze-
bras Except the mountain Variety E,
two male ostriches, two each Of the
large species of antelope and gazelle,
and 10 each of the smaller species,
10 Of each species of wild pig, and
10 of the smaller cats and jackals.
The expense of the trip will be
great, but should Mr.. Roosevelt so
desire he can defray every item of
it with the trophies of his hunt. The
sportsman so fortunate as to secure
a white rhinoceros may dispose of it
for a small fortune. Full or half
grown animals delivered alive at the
Uganda railway will bring a varying
price of from 500 to 1898.
Mr.. Roosevelt will not be restrict
ed in the number of lions, leopards
and crocodiles he may shoot, but the
wild ass, the secretary bird, and
storks are by law made safe from his
gun.
The president will be equipped
with the most modern patterns of
firearms. The rifles, shotguns and
pistols which he will take with him
would be sufficient to stock a small
armory. Chief among his weapons
will be the 35 calibre automatic Rem
ington, which is capable of stopping
anything from tiger to an elephant.

CITY PROPERTY Is
MOVING
LOTS IN THE VARIOUS ADDITIONS
BEING DISPOSED OF STEADILY
TO HOME BUILDERS FOR LOTS
NOT FOR SPECULATION.

The general statement has been
made frequently this spring that city
property and lots in the various addi-
tons of Wenatchee have been going
rapidly, during the last several
months. 1t has also been stated that
very few lots have been purchased
for the purpose of speculation, but
that almost every transfer that is
made is to a home builder.
The Wenatchee Park addition is
selling very rapidly, and that is going
to be built up during the coming sea-
son with people who are DESTROYS of
making homes in this city.
Bousquet addition is also to be an
addition of fine homes. The addi-
ton is limited, but it commands a
fine view and will be built up solid
with fine homes. Lots in Belmont
ePachey, Grand View and
the other additions adjoining the city
are being transferred very rapidly,
but the lots are mostly to people who
want to build, and the suburban
is largely increasing.
