WHIsKEY QUESTION NOT Down.
Legislation Moves Slowly - Corn
Show Is Great--Oconeeans Scarce.

Columbia, Feb. 1.--Editor Keo-
wee Courier: There is very little leg
islation going on OF general interest,
but 1T appears that the whiskey ele-
ment Is coming back into power
again. The House passed pill to
give Charleston high license, while
the Senate passed bill to give GER
tain counties the right to vote in
liuquor at an earlier day than the
general law provides for. This whis-
key question provokes lively debates
as of old. l had hoped that it would
be settled for while, after the pass
age Of the Carey-C -Cothran bill and the
shutting up of the old State dispen-
sary, but it is as much in evidence
as ever, and will continue to be so
until we have a State prohibition
law. This we should have and must
have If it takes woman suffrage to
get it. Then the next step should be
nationwide prohibition law, which
coul- be effected by giving the wo-
men OF our country the right to vote.
! think the bill providing for a
State board of examiners will pass,
carrying with it provisions highly
beneficial to the country schools. The
bill for a compulsory school law was
reported "unfavorable" and will not
pass. A local option compulsory
school bill was reported without
recommendation" which means any
thing or nothing This gives any
school district the right to vote on
the question of compelling parents in
such district to send their children
to school. / hardly think it will
! pass.
Great things are going on here now
at the corn show. A great lesson
may be learned by study of these
/ immense exhibits. / think the best
corn Is from Virginia, Missouri and
North Carolina, in the order of States
named. You know the farmer who
grows and handles corn does not
Judge it like the so-called experts. -
| One thing is evident: The South has
the greatest opportunity. 1t is equal
ly. evident that she does not use 1t as
effectively as the other States, judg-
Ing by the care and taste shown in
arrangement of the displays.
This corn show is worth seeing,
though fear the people of this State
are not, coming in such numbers as
they should. am disappointed that
the people Of the upper counties are
not much in evidence, and especially
so about our own county. A day or
two here, studying the exhibits from
about half the States would teach
our people more than they could
learn in many months reading and
! travelling at a much greater expense,
and the most important and impress
siye lesson they would learn Is that
there is no country like the South
in two respects at least: Her oppor-
tunitias, and our failure to embrace
them. e. e. Werner.

walked the streets of New York this
afternoon, temporarily free man,
under writ of habeas corpus issued
by Judge Holt In the Federal Court.
Argument on the. question OF MAX
ing the writ permanent will be heard
on Friday next.
Followed by curious crowd, Cas-
tro went Immediately to a Fifth ave-
nue. hotel, where he had engaged a
suite. He was all smiles and beam
ing with happiness as he invited pho
tographers to surround him as he
posed Fer his picture.
Before the habeas corpus proceed
ings had been called the little Vene-
zuelan issued a statement bitterly at
tacking the authorities at Wasbing-
ton 'or excluding him.
am glad / have finally found a
judge who is willing to give me JUS
tice." remarked Castro as he left the
Federal building. His lawyers an
nounced that he had accepted an i'm
vitation to speak on Wednesday
night at a dinner of the Northwestern
Society, at which John Hays Ham
mond is to preside, and added that
Mayor Gaynor had invited Castro to
pay him q call.

sAvANNAH's 81 100000 FIRE.
Water Front Swept by Flames, Re-
sulting in Heavy Losses.

Savannah, Ca, Feb. 2-Fast black
ening heaps of smoking ashes, quar-
ter Of a mile in length and 200 yards
In width, are all'that remain tonight
OF the wharves of the Merchants and
Miners transportation Company
which burned early this morning.
The fire, which originated near the
main entrance Of the wharves, was
discovered shortly after / O'Clock,
but spread so rapidly that possibility
of saving the wharves was soon past.
Within less than thirty minutes the
Merchants and Miners wharves were
destroyed and the flames had spread
to the Planters Rice Mill, which also
burned. Seven warehouses, owned
by the Central Of Georgia, and leased
to various companies, were destroyed,
together with their contents. The
entire loss will reach $1,500,O00.
strong gale was blowing when
the fire started, and the flames were
famed ITO fury that defied all efforts
to stop their progress. An area COM
prising about five blocks along the
river front was gutted, and firemen
devoted their main efforts to saving
adjoining property.
Shortly before o'clock the wind
veered, and the wharves of the Ocean
Steamship Company were threaten
ed, but the wind changed again and
this property was spared. 1t was
daylight before the fire was actually
under control. No ships were de-
stroyed by the fire.

AIKEN LOSES FAMOUS HOTEL.
Fire Destroys Property Valued at
Not Less than $3OO,OOO.

Aiken, Feb. 2.-Fire breaking out
in the Hotel Park-in-the-Pines here
this morning at IL o'clock, burned
the magnificent and palatial winter
tourist hostelry to the ground, pro-
ducing one of the most spectacular,
awe-inspiring and destructive confia-
grations in the annals of this famous
little winter resort, and entailing an
enormous loss that will mount into
hundreds Of thousands OF dollars.
All that remains OF the central
point of Aiken's winter season are
smouldering embers and crumbling,
fire-whitened chimneys, standing like
gaunt spectres against the blue sky
line.
The colossal structure, in view of
it's material and the peculiar archi-
tectural arrangement of the building,
was doomed from the first The
blaze started in a thousand feet Of
fresh pine lumber stored in the base
ment near the elevator shaft, and
with incor ceivable rapidity the lurid
tongues CT fame swept the entire
basement and filed every room and
corridor in the hotel with impenetra-
BILE, sitting black smoke, rendering
it impossible for the firemen to gain
access to flames.
Two houTs after the alarm was first
sent in the hotel was a mass OF de-
bris. The building was the property
OF the MacArthurs, of Michigan, and
was insured for $4,000, with $4O,-
600 insurance on the furnishings.
The loss to the hotel company was
more than quarter Of a million.
Personal Losses Heavy.
Practically nothing was saved
| from the burning building. The
| forty-four guests stopping at the
hotel lost personal effects to the ap-
proximate sum of $4,000, and $3,-
900 would hardly cover the loss sus-
tanned by tho large corps OF servants.
Col. A. e. Dick, the manager, a
New York man, lost about $4,000;
j. G. Macksoud g. Brothers, of New
York, lost $4,000 worth OF expen-
sive costumes, laces and embroider-
les imported from France. The total
personal losses amount to something
over $40 900, and this, added to the
value of the building, runs the total
destruction up to decidedly more than
$500, 1000.
Clerks Save invalid Guest.
70. Oppenheimer, of New York, had
the narrowest escape OF any. An in
valid more than 80 years old, he had
to be lifted from his bed and carried
from the burning building. Oshea
and Reardon, the two hotel clerks,
who were assisting him, were almost
overcome by the smoke and dropped
him, but caught him up again and
blindly fought their way from the
building.

LIVES CRUSHED OUT IN PANIC.
Women Trampled to Death In Mad
Rush for Exit of Theatre.

New York, Feb. "A boys cry of
fire and the smoke from an ex-
ploded reel of a motion picture ma
chine In an East Side theatre to-
night resulted in panic among the
audience OF 400 persons and a rush
for the exits, in which two women
were killed and eleven other persons
so badly injured that they had to be
sent to hospitals
The panic occurred in one Of the
most densely populated sections of
the East Side, and the thousands who
poured into East Houston street. in
front of the theatre, and rushed to
the doors added to the confusion and
to the number of injured.
The two women, who have not been
identified, were trampled to death In
the crush of the crowd to reach the
doors. The operator of the machine
soon extinguished the burning film
and the flames did not spread beyond
the fire-proof cage in which he
worked.

WAR IN TURKEY RESUMED.
Bulgarians Have Turned Deaf Ear to
the Great Powers.

London, Feb. 4.-The Turkish-Bal-
kan war has been resumed. The
bombardment of Adrianople began at
Z o'clock Monday night and small
skirmish occurred at the Tchart,lja
lines. The armistice had lasted ex-
actly two months.
Bulgaria has turned deaf ear to
the remonstrances Of the powers, and
unless Turkey yields to the Balkan
demands the allied armies will now
attempt to drive her completely out
Of Europe.
Bombardment Of Adrianople.
The terrific bomhardment of the
forts around Adrianople Is pushed by
100000 Bulgarians and Servian
troops. Not even the residential por-
tion of the city Is spared. Some au-
thorities look for prolonged seige,
but one dispatch says the fortress will
fall within two weeks. The Bulga-
rians said more than half million
men are in the province Of Thrace,
and the Servians have $4,000, to-
gether with a few divisions Of Greeks.
Some quarters of Adrianople are
in flames as the result of the bonn
bardment by the Bulganians and Ser
vians.
