A SERIOUS FIRE.

We are sorry to learn of a serious
fire that occurred last Tuesday on the
Waters farm four miles north of town,
by which the dwelling house with all
that it contained was entirely des-
troyed. We are unable to learn how
the fire originated, but 1t seems that
only the wife of the. tenant and two
small children were ut home at the
time. When sheffirs discovered the
fire she took the children out to place
Of safety and then tried to return to
the house to secure some Of tbs goods.
But the children were frightened and
chung so closely to her that she could
do nothing, and SO had to stand there
and see almost every thing she pos
sessed, burned before her eyes.
We are unable to learn the extent
of the tenants loss, but Mr.. Waters
loss is quite severe for in addition
to the house itself, which was an I'M
usually large farm house, he had sew
eral hundred dollars worth of furni-
ture stored there that is Of course a
total loss.

music was furnished. and those who
enjoy dancing had ample opportunity
to enjoy it to the uttermost, which
they certainly did. An excellent
oyster supper was served at the New
York House, and at about midnight
the party started for home. Miss
kapp, Of lola, is spending a few days
in town, the guest of Mrs. DIR. Russell.
.........Dr. Russell was quite happily
surprised on Monday evening by a
surprise party" of several of his
friends, the occasion being his birth

beautiful.chair, the gift of Mrs. Russell.

NEoSEo VALLEY BARB WIRE COM
PANY

The above is the title under which q
manufacturing establishment is soon
to be put into operation here that we
have no hesitancy in predicting will
become one Of the most paying institu-
tons, both for its projectors and for the
town, We have had. Mr.. B. A. Cas-
mire, who is at the head of the enter
prise, has been figuring on the matter
for some time past, and he has recent
ly completed arrangements by which
he is to have the necessary machinery
on the ground and everything in run
ming order within thirty days. He
has negotiated for the use of the Nov :
city Works building and will get lis
power from that engine. The imrle-
date capacity Of the factory will be
three thousand pounds of finished
wire daily, and will require the en-
ployment Of five men. This capaci-
ty can of course be increased as the de
mands of the business require.
We are heartily glad to make au-
thoritative announcement of the estab-
lishment of this industry, for we are
confident it will be permanent fea-
ture of the town and of lasting benefit
to it. The men at the head of the con-
Germ know. their business and have
money enough to carry it on success
fully. They do not asb any bonus.
The business itself is one that will al
ways pay. There is one factory at
Lawrence but that is the only one in
Kansas. and as it can be manufactured
here just as eheaply as there, there is
no reason why the lola factory should
not supply the demand all over this
part of the state. That it will eventu-
ally do this we have no doubt. Verify,
our town is booming.

ROCK ALLEN THE ORPHAN"

The Dramatic Club was greeted by
the largest audience last Saturday
evening that has been called out by
a similar company this winter, and we
think it is the universal verdict that
it gave by far the best entertainment
that we have vet had. Dramatic crit
icism is not our forte, so we will not
attempt detailed analysis. To say
that all did well, would be true. To
say that some did much better than
others. would also be true; but we
hardly care to take upon ourselves the
responsibility of saying who are meant
| by "some.u Those ''some' would
Heartily agree with us no doubt, but
the others would be quite certain that
we were prejudieed or partial. We
prefer to keep on good terms with all
of them, and so will not individualize
further than to say, that in this rs in
all the amateur clubs we ever knew,
the ladies did much better than the
gentlemen.
We think the management is to be
congratulated on the good sense shown
in the selection of plays. They recog-
nized what so many amateurs fail to
do, that light drama. well played, is
better than heavy one poorly played.
Rock Allen, the Orphan" while
having fairly interesting plot for
ground work, still depends mainly on
the accompanying incidents for its sue
cess. While "Poor Pillicoddy"-all
the plot 1t needed was to give Poor
Pillicoddy chance to talk.
The club was fortunate also in OBJ
tanning the services of the Moran
orchestra. We had heard of this or
ganization before, but were very much
surprised to find that they could fur
nish such really fine music. Sam
Steele, az cornetist did especially we'll,
while Miss A. NJ Southland, as plan
ist; Mr.. p. J. McGlashen, as 1st vio-
Iinist; Mr.. w. II. Wheeler az End viO-
linist, and Mr.. II. Smith with the
double bass, all took their parts ex-
celIently. The little village down the
road is certainly fortunate in having
such good music always at command.
Taken all in all we are quite sure
that every one who found his way to
the opera house last Saturday even
ing, came away fully satisfied that he
had never spent quarter OF a dollar
more wisely, and all will no doubt be
glad to hear, as we are to announce.
that the club expects to put another
play on the boards just as soon as they
can get it worked up. Long life to
them.

An Unwritten Point of History.

Truth is indeed stranger than fie-
ton. 1t is interesting to note how
some Of the most illustrous historical
characters died. Richard Occur de
Leon like the animal from which his
heart was named fell by the arrow of
an archer. George ~ passed away a
victim of gluttony and dissipation.
Henry VIII died of carbuncles and
scurvey, because in those days there
was no Swayne's Ointment for skin
diseases to cure the affections in the
beginning.

Jan. 9th, 1888.
To the Mayor and Council Of lola:
Having, heard various rumors of sew
eral cases of smallpox existing in your

west Of this city, we, the citizens Of
Bronson, called meeting on the
morning of January 9th 1873, te, inves-

meeting of citizens was calles at which
the following resolutions Were adopted:
WHEREAS, We the citizens of Bron-

that several cases of genuine smallpox
do exist in eight or nine miles of our

deemed it best not to quarantine
against said infectious districts.
WHEREAS, in consequence of the
above, said sufferers are now destitute
of the necessaries of life, and we the
citizens of Bronson, sympathising with
said sufferers, have determined and
promised said sufferers, in consequence
