night OF the 18th ult. A two story
frame building was destroyed at the

ry, and manufactured stock-and
their insurance is $500, in the Por-
Iage Mutual.
The building on sixth street was
owned by N. Ward, Esq, and insured
Tor S250--its full value.

that the FIRE was the work Of an in-
cendiary."

entirely destroyed.

Considerable damage was done to
the house and furniture of the Messrs.
Brown by the fire and removal of the
contents"
Judge Brown, in published card,
expresses his conviction that the fire
was wholly accidental.

From the State Journal.
To the Wings OF Ohio!

The time has come when the
Wings of Ohio must begin TO organ.
ize for the approaching Presidential
contest. Our brethren in other
States are already moving, by the
appointment of Delegates to the
Whig National Convention, which
will meet sometime in June next lit
! is hoped at Cincinnati-in sccor-
dance with the wishes Of the Wings
of the Western and Southwestern
States. The anniversary Of the birth
Of WAsHINGToN-a day peculiarly
denESn the memory of Ohio Wings,
and coincident with the battle OF
Buena Vista, where the lamented
TAYLOR successfully contended for
victory against more fearful odds
than we have now to encounter,
seemed most appropriate TO the Com.
mittee to call upon the Wings of the
State 10 stand by their arms, and
commence Immediately the work OF
Organization. This day, four wears
ago, the ball was set in motion at
Philadelphia, that ended in the tri-
umph Of the Wing cause in the last
Presidential election. Our prospects
are as bright now as they were then,
If the elements OF success be ONLY
properly put in motion. a Wing
President was elected in AS without
the help OF Ohio; and in this State
we should learn wisdom in The ensu.
ing contest from the conduct ol our
opponents after the election OF 1910,
who, though beaten as badly then
as we were last October, immedi.
aiely rallied like men resolved to
conquer, and carried the State The
next year. The full Wing vote OF
Ohio has never been polled since
1874, and at no time since have our
opponents ever come up to that vote,
but elected their State officers by a
less vote than they polled in 1914. |
when they were beaten nearly 5000 |
votes. Let the Wings of Ohio
AROUSE, and bring TO the POLLS the
10000 voters that have ABsENrED
themselves Of late years, and ONO
will again resume her position, in
