NCENDIARIES AT WORK.
Recent Fires Indicate Systematic
Work of Fire Bug.

Two more fires were added tc
the list this week, aud there is in
dication that they did not originate
accidentally.
The first FIRE this week was dis
covered about nine O'Clock Mon
day night. The house is located
next door to the home of A. NJ.
Addison, principal of the colored
school, and belonged to him,
though it was occupied by a negro
named Demas. Demas claimed to
have had no fire about the house
for two days prior to the burning.
The building, which was worth
several hundred dollars, was badly
damaged. There was an insur.
ance of s25o.
The second FIRE occurred shortly
after twelve o'clock Wednesday
morning IN brakes Addition. This
building recently belonged to a
negro woman named Blackstone,
but was closed out under deed of
trust last week by Mrs. ]. N.
Brashear. II was worth ahouf
$500. and was partially covered by
insurance. The house was occu
pied by an old woman. The form.
er owner now lives in the country
where she is teaching school. An
other house belonging to her was
burned about two weeks. Those
who FIRST reached the burning
house yesterday morning declare
that the FIRE had its origin on the
front gallery.
