Dwelling House Burned-Loss $4,000

Mr.. W. H. Dickert's house, on Moor
man St., occupied by Mr.. D. NJ. Dickert
and wife. was destroyed by fire on the
night of the 3rd, between two and
three O'Clock. No one was sleeping in
it at the time, Mrs. Dickcrt being at
Chappell's on visit, and Mr.. D. at
his fathers, near Helena. When the
fire was first seen, the roof was falling
in, and nothing was saved from the
house. The value of the house was
about $4,000 and Mr.. Dickert says
that $1,000 would not more than cover
the loss in furniture, iewelry, cash,
wearing apparel, &c.
The building was insured for 81 900
with Boozer & Son, Agts. OF the Liv-
erpool and London and Globe, Co.,
and $500 with Mower & Jones, in the
Georgia Home. The Liverpool and
London and Globe, Boozer q Son,
agents, had 1926 insurance on furni-
ture, and SIS on organ. The Star Co.,
n. Y, same agents, had $50 on wear
ing apparel. Mr.. Dickert is satisfied
that the house was set on fire, the prob
ability being that it was first robbed.
He says that he left it on the afternoon
before the fire, at O'Clock; and that,
before leaving. he examined the stove,
the only place in which there had been
fire during the day, and the fire had
gone out.

NesSrs. Editors: s:-Will you try to
persuade our neighbors that there is
no wild woman at large? 1t is putting
some of our acquaintances to a great
deal OF inconvenience; our Trial Justice

Depot to take the train when he wants

We promise to see that no one COM
ing to the Lawn Party, the 18th, shall
be molested; so come along everybody
aud see the sights.
This Lawn Party is getting to be a
tremendous affair; it looks as if the
ladies are preparing for another
National Centennial. We men want
to plant cotton, but are kept busy
putting up posts, tables, seats: &C.,
and they will not tell what the poll is
for. Some of the young men think
they will climb 1.-THE one making the
best time to be allowed to crown the
queen of love AMI beauty; so if the
18th does not soon come they will not
make crop, as they take up all their
time practicing climbing. 1t can no
longer be said ladies can't keep a
secret all they tell us is to come and
bring our pocket-books-not empty
either.
Health of community good; the
doctors should be glad if they have to

Children,S DaY.

Children's Day.
There was a crowd at Ebenezer last
Saturday, made up of two classes, in
the words of DIR. Carlisle, '!those who
are children, and those who once were
children The day was perfect-the
committee on arrangements could not
have ordereda more suitable day to be
spent in the woods, if that matter had
been left to their wisdom. The day
was occupied from about II o'clock till
l O'Clock, with singing and addresses
one by DIR. Carlisle, on Thought and
Thinking" which, by. the way, was re-
markably thoughtful and interesting;
and one by DR.. Darby, on the general
subject of Sunday School work. After
partaking of sumptuous dinner, the
children were turned loose and left to
enjoy themselves as best they might.
They enjoyed the occasion as only chill
dren could but towards evening, the
time began to drag somewhat heavily.
The only objection to the day was that
there was too much of it. But the
children will be anxious and ready for
the next Children'S Day.
