A six room house, located jast
in front of Will Rosamond's
blacksmith shop and owned by
T. D. Harris, was completely
DESTROYED by fire about five
o'clock Sunday morning. The
house was occupied bv LYDIA

boarders. Practically nothing

negro man awaking just in
time to save himself and lost all
his clothing. It not known
how it originated. Some think
it was incendiary from the fact
that there had been no fire in
the house since noon Saturday.
LYDIA Edwards stated that there
were no matches IN the house
as she had to 90 out and borrow
one to light her lamp with Sat
urday night. Mr.. Harris carried
no insurance on the house. He
was also unfortunate enough to
lose a house in Anderson county
last year upon which he carried
no insurance.

From the Far West.

Mr.. Otis Cook, of Edmonton,
Alberta, Canada, was in Pick
ems county last week Visiting
his friends, Mr.. Avery Looper,
and the family of Mr.. O. P.
Fields. Mr.. Looper has been in

came home about three months
ago on account of the serious i'll
ness of his mother. Mr.. Cook,
originally from Toccoa, Ca,
met up with four Pickens coun-
ty boys-M. A. Looper, Waddy
Fields, E. F. Hendricks and
Wade Williamson Aberdeen,
Washington, and they being
from the same section of the
country soon became warm
friends. He recently left Aber-
deem to try his fortune further
north and settled in the province
of Alberta, G NADIA, where he is
connected with the Hudson Bay
Co. Before leaving his Pickens
county friends he and Fields
made a bargain that the first
one who came home was to
go to see the others people. Mr..
Cook was the first to come home
and he kept his part of the bar
gain. He brought good news
from the Pickens boys, and said
that each Of them was prosper
ing. Mr.. Fields is engaged in
the real estate business out
there. While in town they
spent a portion of the day with
Mr.. Looper's friend, Mr.. A. NJ.

RATE CASE CONTINUED.
Interstate Commerce Commission Turns
Down Agreement.

The Interstate Commerce Commission
has declined to approve the agreement
recently entered into between Spokane
shippers and Northern Pacific and other
railroads, whereby the railroads pro-
posed at once to put into effect a SEIZED
ule of carload commodity rates from
eastern territory to Spokane and Spo-
kane territory, slightly higher than
rates previously found reasonable by
the commerce commission, but mate
rally lower than rates against which
Spokane originally complained.
The agreement between the shippers
and railroads was submitted to the
commission for approval at hearing
May 8 and it was said by representa-
tives and others that the proposed
schedule was to be forthwith estab-
lished by the carriers and that the Spo-
kane rate proceedings would be dis
continued by the Spokane complain
ants. The schedule of the commission
had named both carload and less than
carload commodity rates, but the SEIZED
ule of the carriers embraced no "less
than carload F" rates.

Livingston, Mont.-After a week s

strange creature whose actions have ex-
cited this city as nothing else ever did,
was run down by Chief of Police Frank
Swindlehurst and Policeman Hansen,
and to the amazement of the officers,
was found to be a well-known clerk
The prisoner under cross-examina-
ton broke down, telling the officers
that he had "been marked" before
birth, his mother having fallen into a
stream, and when dragged from the
water, was laid upon a pile of women s
clothing by his father.
The passion, declared the prisoner,
to attire himself in feminine garb and
disport himself in the water at night
for hours was ungovernable. He be-
came so proficient in the water that
though the Yellowstone river was high
and the waters turbulent he would
dive under the logs and easily swim
to safety when pursued. His garment:
led to the belief he was woman. He
repeatedly escaped the officers ever
at night, and during the winter hi
would splash and swim. Chief Swindle
hurst refused to divulge the man I
name, as he fears it would cause hin
to lose his position, but he will be KEEP
under police surveillance.
