A Knight of the Night Tom WANNAMAKER, colored, was arrested this morning by Policeman BATES near Whitney, but not until a long hot chase from the suburbs of the city. The negro is wanted for chicken stealing and he was carrying with him when the chase began a crocus sack containing the unlucky number, thirteen, nice frying size chickens, which he was forced to drop by the roadside. Officer BATES thinks he is the thief that has been visiting the chicken yards of many of the citizens for several weeks passed, as he fills the description given of the negro who has been selling chickens at Beaumont and Whitney. In the mayor's court this morning he was tried and sentenced to five months on the county chaingang. Residence at Fingerville Burned The residence of the Messrs. McMILLAN at Fingerville was burned last Monday morning. The flames were discovered in the second story of the house and had gained great headway so that the saving of the building was beyond question. Most of the household goods and furniture down stairs were saved. There was no insurance. The origin of the fire is unknown, but the supposition is that a box of matches had been left accessible to rats and the combination did the disastrous work. SPARTANBURG [city] -Mrs. H. L.
