Samuel Travis, alias Thompson, with another alius or two attached to his appellation, was arrested in this place Suturduy afternoon by Deputy Sheriff Miller on a charge of lureeny and locked in tho town hostile for safo keeping until the evening train when he was taken to tho county jail by Sheriff Burns. About fi.30 Ed. Schultze was passing tho lock-up and ho noticed smoke issuing from the crevices. Some smull boys wore looking in at one of the windows and Ed. could hear a man inside sweuring professionally. Ho stopped and asked tho prisoner where till the smoke was coining from and the fellow answered thut he was smoking. Schultze knew there was a fire some where in the building and when ho gained an entrance he discovered that tho bed clothes in the prisoner's ocll were afire and Travis was standing be tween the fire and the door of his cago to keep Schultze from seeing where the fire was, and then the lock-up was so full of smoke it was almost suffocating. Had it not been for Schultze's timely appeuraqce it is likely Travis would not be one of the boarders in the county jail to-day. He denied having set the clothes afire, but had he suffocated it would ftive been clear caso of felo-de-se.

Tho woman, a stranger In a strnngo land, penniless, with two helpless children to look after, was In a sorry plight indeed. A kind hearted man at Kleanora took pity on the woman and children and offered them shelter for a few days until the woman could discover If the law would compol tho man to givo her money enough to return to Tennessee.

One week ago Sunday it was reported at this placo in tho forenoon that a great naval buttle bud been fought be tween Sampson's fleet and tho Spanish fleet, and that the entire Spunlsh fleet hud been destroyed nnd two of our vessels wero sunk, one, tho Indiana, with ull on board.
