Pret ty Well Insured. Klnaton Free Press, March 8th. The Commercial hotel, until recently run under the name of Hotel Bailey, was burned to the ground last night. The fire alarm was sounded about 10 minutes to 1 o'clock. It was a two-story woodon building and burned rapidly. No wind was blow Ing and the fire department bad no diffi culty In confining the flames to the origi nal building, although surrounded by wooden structures. The fire originated in the southeast corner, probably In thekltchen, from an unknown cause, and that part of the building was enveloped In flames before anyone discovered It. . It was first dis covered, by a. young lady employed at the house. Her room was over the kitchen and she was awakened by the flames and gave the alarm,' Landlord Morrill hurriedly sllppe 1 on his trousers and eqaiand rushed through the halls banging on doors and shout ing to the sleeping Inmates to get out as quickly as possible. Vast volumes of smoke came rolling up the main stair way and quickly filled the halls, making egiess difficult and dangerous. Guests hastily arose and snatching a few art!, cles of clothing made a dash for safety. Borne were so long In getting awake or stopping to partially dress that exit by the halls was Impossible, and they had to let themselves down from the windows or the front porch. One sound sleeper had to be dragged out by his feet and did not have even a pair of shoes. - Mr. Hargrave and his family narrowly es caped suffocation and got out with only what they could pick up as they ran, Later a trunk containing silverware and other valuables was dragged out badly burned, and during the excitement was rifled by sneak thieves. A number of daring young men push ed their way into the looms In the front of the building and succeeded in throw ing out a good many pieces of furniture which were more or leu wrecked In fall Ing. - Several guests who were mourning the loss of watches, money, jewelry, etc after getting themselves out safely, had the lost articles restored to them by hon eat Anders. Not everything was. recov ered thus, however, and several guests are minus articles of clothing and yalu- aoies. ... The building was owned by Mr. R. H Rountree, of New Tork City. . The loss Is between $3,000 and $1,000. Insured for $2,6000. ::c : i . .. The furniture of the hotel was owned by 'the proprletors,;Mess. Merrell & Har grave.: Their loss by this was about $1,5000 with $900 Insurance. They each had Individual losses, Mr. Morrill calcu lates his Individual loss at $800,. with $850 Insurance. - Mr.. Hargrave calcu lates his loss about $500, with no In auranoe. , - ARAPAHOE. March 10. Business In Arapahoe Is moving on nicely, everybody seems to have put on a brighter face, as the weather to some extent has brightened up, notwithstanding our lands are very wet, but during the last week our farm- era hare made good progress planting potatoes. We had a rain fall Saturday night, but not as heavy as usual. Last Monday evening, there was a ne gro tried before Mr. Joseph Reel, named Brlnt Reeds, who came from near Orion rial. His offence was cursing Mrs. Betty Benders, and because he made threats to her Injury, It became necessary to put him under a peace bond and not being able to get It signed, he was taken from Arapahoe to Jail.

Carolina Good Roads Association made a requeat that each county woald send $10 for the fund to promote the work In the State. The following counties have sent the sum requested to Treasurer Joseph G. Brown of Raleigh," tSullford, Cabarrus, Davie, Northampton, Person, Granville, and Craven. Pitt semis 85. All these amounts were regularly appropriated by the counties. ' The letters In which the money was sent express deep interest In the good roada movement. Governor Aycock la Informed that Friday, April 11, will be "Wilmington Day" at the Charleston Exposition. He has not been requested to designate It. He was so requested In the Charlotte, ABhevllleand Winston Days. Raleigh! u.appearg wiu.noi nave a uaj, as no ap plication has been made and no talk heard regarding the matter. It la queer that the people at the capital of the State ishould have overlooked such a matter. The sheriff of this county is informed by one of his deputies of the murder of a negro, JohnlHalloway, by Edgar Hicks, alias Edgar Smith. The details of the crtmegare given for the first time. It appears that Hicks' and other negroes had been drinking all night. The next day they were gambling In a field, when Halloway (passed. Hicks wife made a full statement of the crime, saying that Hicks and another negro among the gamblers had planned to kill Halloway. They called to him to stop and Hicks tried to get blm to enter his (Hicks') house. Halloway said he understood that they had expressed an intention to kill him. Hicks denied this and declared he had nothing against Halloway. The other men left and finally Halloway went Into Hicks' house. He was - drow sy and sitting In front -of the fire he nodded. Hicks went out and brought in wood and with it an axe. His wife was in the room. He placed some wood on the floor and suddently swung the axe and crushed Halloway's skull. The vic tim fell on the floor struggling, and Hicks gave him another blow, which as his wife described It "straightened him out." Hicks left at once and went to the house of bis father-in-law, where he coolly told the family that he had killed Halloway and that it required two blows with an axe to do it. There was a queer case here today, at the railway station. A man and his wife with their seven children were on their way to a place to work In a cotton mill. The children were from two years to fifteen. The man bought two second- class tickets, declaring most positively that all the children were under 9 years of age. Governor Aycock offers $300 reward for the persons (moonshiners or their friends) who murdered John Caton In Beaufort county. The murder was really an assassination, from ambush. Shrlners at Charleston Exposition. The Shriners are preparing to have i big time at the great exposition, where plenty of their beloved elephants and camels can be secured from the mld way. It is understood , that staid King street will see sights she never ; saw before, that dignified Meeting will be duly shocked ' and the Battery will blush a vivid red when the nobles ap pear thereabouts. But they are all coming. J All the Illustrious nobles of the An cient Arabic Order of the Nobles of the Mystic Shrine have been notified that the Charleston Exposition Is In full blast and that Oasis Temple of Char lotto, N.
