Mr. Anderson has been in feeble health for some vears. having been compelled ttb resign hi prof essorship in Davidson College on ims account, aim 9u.w time has devoted himself with all the 7pa1 and eneruv which his weakened frame would bear to the cause of reli gion, of whose teachings his life was a KriCTht. and beautiful illustration.

Fire in Ureenville, S. C. -Yesterday morning before daylight fir consumed the-stores of Mr. E. B. Dickson and Capt.3dcMahon, of Green ville, S. C. The buildings were the property of Mayor Mauldin, were con nected with each other, and were new and very handsome store houses. Mr. Dickson carried a stock of general merchandise which was insured for 17,000; Capt. McMahon had a large stock of gents' furnishing goods and the extent of his insurance has not been learned ; the houses were insured for &&.000. Mr Dickson safn after ;4vlng . passed through the fire was opened and the money and books were found intact. His losses are fully covered by insurance The fire, when first discovered, was burning in the stairway between ! the- two- . houses. Parties who were early on the grounds detected the odor of kerosene, and there are no reasons to believe other wise than that the fire was of in cendiary origin. A Church Entertainment. A very pleasant entertainment was given by the members of the Baptist IUbflay $caoai last night dji the church, consisting 01 music ana recitations Dy the scholars and teachers. The church was wrell filjed by an audience who showed hearty appreciation of their efforts. The concert singing by the children was highly creditable to them selves and their teachers. Among the other features which seemed to be most , appreciated was a beautiful solo by Mrs. Morgan, a charming recitation by Mrs. Morehead (on the humorous order) -and another by little Mamie Osborne, whose enunciation and ex pression were decidedly remarkable for a child of her age. The Sunday school will .realize a nice little sum by the entertainment, and they certainly deserved to be rewarded. A Baby Left on a Door-Sltp. An interesting and mysterious story which is just now coming to light, pro mises to give us something of a sensa tion, and is sure to afford the gossips' tongues steady employment for a good while to come. Old Mrs. Baker, who lives in the outskirts of Biddleton, very near the crossing of the Carolina Cen tral Railroad, about a mile and a half from the city, was just starting to bed a few nights ago, when she heard at the .door a, sound which attracted her at tention. ' She opened the door and on the step discovered a basket which she took in to the house, liaising the cover she found a white infant, snugly tuck ed away in the basket, and by its side a bottle of milk and a quantity of cloth ing. Whose was it and what to do with it V were questions which presented themselves at once to Mrs. Baker's mind. The first remains unsolved but the secondMrs.Baker unanswered as any others good woman would have done. She took the tiny stranger from its little bed, fed it, and has continued to feed and care for it up to. the present time. That the infant was left on the step by some crufel mother, anxious to get rid of it, or some accomplice of the mother, cannot be doubted, but clue to the identity of the parties there is none. It is remembered, since this circum stance came to light, that on the even ing 01 the nigtit when the lniant was -i v a ai - 1 iouna, a ciose carriage passeu me nouse of Mrs. Baker, returned toward the city and again turned and passed the house, but who was in the carriage is a mystery for which there is no present prospect of finding a solution. Meantime the little one is being well cared for and is an object of unending interest in the immediate neighbor hood. A Bold Attempt at Highway Robbery Capture of Two or More of ttte Sup posed Robbers. Mr. F. Kuester started to his home corner (kllege and Seventh streets, about 9.30 o'clock Saturday night, and when within a few yards of his gate was met by two negro men who passed him, and then turning followed close upon liiiii.. He did not notice anything peculiar about their conduct, but when he was in the act of opening his gate one-of them seized him by the "neck and began choking him while the other rilled his pockets. , When lie fully realized his condition, he snatched a stick from the hands of one of the men and began to defend himself. He had hardly struck more than one blow when one of the robbers tied and soou the other followed, and before he could summon assistance both were out of reach. Mr. Kuester was not hurt in the struggle, and the thieves got no money, although he had $25 on his person ; they ritted the wroner pocket. The occurrence was so sudden and the strusrefle of such short duration that Mr. Kuester was not able to distiniguish the features of either of the robbers, and in fact could only tell that both were black and one considerably taller than the other. He still retained the stick, however, and this was the only clue he could furnish the officers. It was turned over to Justice McNinch yesterday morning, and he immediate' lv set out to discover the owner of it. The stick is of a somewhat peculiar character and believing that he had seen it in the hands of a negro named Isham Fullenwider, he had him arrest ed. Fullenwider denied any knowledge of the stick, but upon being accused of . j i . l' : i . . . ) : . .1 4-U4- Deing ine owner 01 11, nts aumuieu tustL he had seen it and that it belonged to one Tom Mvers. colored, lie turtner admitted that Myers and another ne ero named Len Crockett met him Sat urday night, and told him that they in tended to have some money, some way 6t Other, and asked him to go with them- He consented and accompanied them to Mr. Kuester's store, and watch ed while they attempted to break into it at the front door. They failed ia this, arid then told him that they in tended to have some money any way. Heweht'with' them as far as the Cald well House where he was hired, and be ing too drunk, he left them and went into tb'b&ck yard, and thence to the place were h0 sleeps. Myers ,and Len Crockett were both arrested; but stoutly denied their guilt or any knowledge of the stick of wWch Myers was accused ipf being the owner. They were, nowever, uname 10 prove a aaqi and were sent to jan 10 await fmmerideVelbonients. The-prepnetor of the Caldwell House States tlat he saw Fullenwider in ms pats yard drunk about: half past 10 o'clock, an hour after the attempted robbery.
