Large llund Saw Mill of Georgia & Aylesworlli Burned. Tbe bustling town of Endeavor, this county, was again visited by a destructive lire that licked up a total of about $25,000 worth of property, consisting mainly of the large band sawmill owned and oper ated by Georg'a A Aylesworth, contract ors for Wheeler A Dusenbury In the manufacture of hemlock lumber, largely. Also the electric lighting plant lately in stalled and which had only recently got ten well established. On Thursday eve ning, about 7:20 o'clock, workmen were engaged in tbe under part of the mill in rer airing a belt, using an open mill lamp or lighting. Jt was necessary to go overhead on some errand and Iu doing so tbe workman stepped on a loose board which sifted a quantity of fine sawdust down upon tbe lamp, causing an explo sion and almost Instantly filling tbe lower part of tbe mill witb flames. Tbe alarm given by tbe mill whistle brought tbe meu lo the scene in an in credibly short time. Messrs. Wheeler & Dusenbury bave equipped their property with the best possible lire lighting facili ties, aud in almost less time than it ta'.ea to tell it three one-inch streams of water were playing on the flames through hose attached to two large pumps located near tbe upper mill aud taking water from the pond, aud from the large reservoir on the bill, lurnishing a pressure of 130 pounds. By means ol excellent aud per sistent work the fire was confined to the one large building, and although sur rounded by other buildings and thous ands of feet of partially seasoned lumber, no other property was burned. Tbe mill, which was erected in 1001, was a flue, modern structure, equipped with band saw, band resaw, edgers, trim mers, two planers, two engines, 180-borsn power boiler, and the electrio lightiug plant. The boilers, being enclosed in brick and masonry, are perhaps tbe only part of the machinery not totally ruined For a time the great sparks from the burning mill are said to bave been ter rific, and men were stationed on roofs aud board pile? with water buckets ready to extinguish the falling embers which were a constant menace to surrounding property. In less than an- hour after starting, tbe fire was under control, aud tbe people breathed easier. The loss to the mill owners is estimated at 0,000, on which there is an Insurance of about $12,000. The electrio lighting plant was owned by private citizens of the place, and their loss, between (2,000 and $3,000, is fairly covered by Insurance. Messrs. Wheeler ifc Dusenbury owned one of the planing machines aud the band resaw, which were also fairly covered by insurance. They also own and operate an extensive band mill lo cated about 1,000 feet from the one burned, which tbey started up on double tour on Monday. The work of clearing up the debris of tbe burned property was begun on Mon day, and the owners expect to have a new mill in opera'ion within uinety days. About 40 men were temporarily thrown out of employment by the lire, all of whom will find work, however, either in rebuilding, or on the other mill, wbicb will run night aud day duriug tbe next few months.

Mrs. Frances Wearbarn, pronounced Urban, died at tbe County Home, Thurs day evening, Feb. 22, 1900, after an Ill ness lasting about six weeks, of hemor rhages, aged 56 years. The remains were taken to Marlenville, where the funeral services were held in the Catholic church, Rev. Joseph Keegan officiating, on Sun day last. The latter years In tbe life of this unfortunate but true lady had been peculiarly sad and pathetic. The traglo death of ber husband In an accident on a sawmill in Jenks township, about 18 years ago, not long aftor arriving in this country from Germany, left ber alone aud destitute, without kill) or kin in all this great land to whom she might turn for help or sympathy, yet she bravely struggled with all her powers to maintain a livelihood. Kind friends to whom her pathetic condition appealed most keenly ministered to hor as best they could and for a long time succeeded iu keeping ber out of tbe "poor bouse," When finally it became necessary, to bring her to the county home the dread of having her body, sooner or later, transported to the dissecting table preyed greatly upon her mind. But thanks to tbe genorosity fo kind and sympathetic friends at Marlen ville, ber mind was set at rest on this point, being assured that she should have a Christian burial, and then tbe tried soul seemed to welcome the parting from earthly sorrow. At the borne of Mrs. Cyrus F. Hunt, where the remains rested and were finally prepared fir burial, her casket was bedecked witb beautiful flow ers, and many friends called to take a last look at tho kindly face which al last had found repose. In a lot provided by Mrs. Hunt, she was laid to rest in the quiet city of the dead. Peace to her ashes. A Mysterious A flair. Perry McCalmont, one of President's well known and highly respected citi zens, was a busineas visitor In town one day last week and gave the Republican office a friendly call. He related a pe culiar, and what may yet prove a start ling incident that came under tbe notice of himself and some neighbors on Tues day morning, the 20th inst. They were on their way to the election and were passing along the bank of the river when tbey discovered a man's track leading from tbe shore directly toward a large air-bole in the ice that bad washed out some time during tbe night. Tbe water bad floated back some distance over trie solid ice, aud unless acquainted with the peculiarity of such conditions one might walk through the water aud Into the air hole without being aware of his danger. They followed the track almost to the very edge of the opening, and although searching carefully, were unable to dis cover where tbe person had returned from bis perilous predicament, or that he had passed around the bole aud roached the opposite shoie, and the conclusion was almo-t forced upon them that he bad gone too far aud stepped Into the deep and rapid current. The track was a fresh one, having been made not to exceed two hours before. Inquiry failed to elicit any information as to any one having been seen on tbe ice at that time, so tbe matter still remains a mystery as to what became of the pedestrian, and time only can reveal the facts. No one in that vi cinity bas been reported as missing, but the man may have been a stranger. The tracks were those of an ordinary sized man's foot and appeared as though he had worn a rubber shoe. The other wit nesses to tills mysterious affair were Alex McCalmont, Charles VanGiesea and Orrin Hill. Court .Minnies. Court convened as usual on Monday, with President Judge Lindsey, and As sociates F. X. Kreitler and Perry C, Hill, on the bench.
