Maroon Escape. The alarming
tones of the FIRE bell brought many of our
citizens to their feet Monday morning last,
about o'clock. The alarm was caused
b V the breaking ost of FIRE in the I'd
story of the Smith and Hartxig, Frame
Block, better known as the Cramer Block,
on the West side of the river When dis
covered the flames were burst ng out of two
windows, aud for an instant it would seem
that the building must go, especially when
it vas found that the cistern on Second ST
was frozen and other delays prevent ed the
hremeu from getting to work. The pro-
per application, however, of few pals
of water on the burning portion of the
building, had sslutsry effect on the fire,
and it was quenched before doing
much damage defect in the stove
pipe, near the entrance to the chimney in
the second story caused the burning and
but for the timely assistance Of those pres
ent, a serious Ere might hsvo occurred, as the
morning was bitter cold, and every thing
just ri bit for a hot time. Persons at this
season Of the year, cannot be too cautious
about their fires, and sometimes by a little
care a con6agrstion may be avefted.
Since writing the above we learn that
another FIRE broke out in this block Tues
day forenoon, butthe flames were subdued
before the building had sustained much
damage.

Through Trains from Chicago

Through Trains from Chicago
Railway Company, with their accustomed
enterprise, have completed arrangements for
the running of through trains from Chicago
to st. Paul, by the way of this city, which
will obviate the change OF cars now neces
sary in travelling between the two points
The train will consist of new aud elegant
never been excelled by those of any westei
road, and thirteen new and powerful en-
gines are to be brought into requisition for
the work of transporting them. Improved
postal Gals, superior to anything now on
the road will be attached 10 these trains, and
Will convey the mail along the route. The
track OF the Chicago and North estern be-
tween Chicago and Milwaukee will be used by
the Milwaukee st. Paul Company until
their own track which runs nearly parallel
with the Northwestern to Chicago, is COM
completed.
This important train would have been run
ming by this time but for non comp etio n of
the bridge al Winona. The bridge we under
stand is nearly finished, aud the tr, in is ex-
pected to De IN iull running order about the
10th inst. This vii! doubtless be one of the
most popular and best patron;zed routes in
the Vest, and the Milwaukee Il St. Paul
Railway Co. are certainly deserving of credit
for so successfully bringing about an ar
rangement that so fully meets the wants OF
the travelling public.

The meeting of this association IN the Meth
odist church of this city, on Wednesday last,
was Of much interest. The Institute, at
three P. H., was conducted by Rev. Mr..
Gilbert, State Sunday School Supern tend
ent. The obstacles to success in the school
were brought out by questions to the audi
ence, and valuable suggestions were made
for the better condu ct of the work. In the
evening a large sudence of adults and chill
dren was present at the general meeting
Mr. Gilbert conducted ctildrens service OF
ee-fourths Of an hours length, and then,
the children being dismissed, addressed the
adults. His main point was that the way
to keep boys in the Sunday School is to
persuade parents and grown people gener-
ally, to become members Of the school.
DIR. PERI ms, of Milwaukee, advocated
greater thoroughness in biblical instruction .
and H. J. Cowles, Esq, OF Madison, most
earnestly pleaded for more efficient labor

which the following named persons We e

The American Washer Saves Honey,
Time, and DruGgery.
The Fatigue of Washing Day no
Longer Dreaded, but Economy, Ell
cheney, and Clean Clothing, Sure.
In calling public attention to this little
machine, few OF the Invaluable qualities,
(not possessed by auy other washing ma
chine yet invented, are here enumerated.
tbs the smallest, most compact most port
able, mo simple in construction. most cas-
lily operated. A child ten years old, with
few hours practice, can thoroughly compre-
bend and effectually use il. There is no adj
justing, no screws to annoy, no delay in
adap1ingi 1t is always ready fer use 1t
is a perfect little wonderl 1t is minute
giant, doing more work and Of better
quality. than the most elaborate and costly.
Ono-half Of the labor is fully saved by ITS
use, and the clothes will last one half longer
than by the old plan Of the rub board. II
will wash the largest blanket. Thrse shirts
at time, washing thoroughly Ina word,
the ablution of any fabric from Quilt to
Lace Curta or Cambria Handkerchief, are
equally within the capacity of this LITTLE
GEN 1t can be fastened to any tub and
taken off at will.
No matter how deep rooted a prejudice
may exist against Washing Machines, the
moment this little machine is seen to per-
form its wonders, all doubts its cleansing
efficiency and utility are baui shed, and the
doubter and detractor at once becoJ me III
fast friends of the machine.
We have testimoa ak without end, setting
forth It's numerous advantages over all 9TH
ers, and from hundreds who have thrown
aside the nuwieldy. useless machines, which
have sgnaliy failed to accomplish the OBJ
iect promised in prominent and loud sound
ing advertisements.
1t is as perfect for washing a wringer
is for wrnging. The price, another para
mount indictment to purchasers, has bear
placed so low that it is within the reach of
every housekeeper, and there is no article of
domestic economy that will repay the small
investment so soon.
