DESTROYED BY Pie


The tenant house on the farm of
Hon. 7. E. Mcmillan, about seven
miles northwest of this city, occupied
by Z. F. Van Cleave and family, was
totally destroyed by fire last Monday
night between eight and nine o'clock.
How the fire originated is not known,
as Mr.. Van CIeave was away from
home putting up hay and Mrs. Van
Cleave and the children were visiting
at neighbours, Mr.. and MIS-. Howe,
about three quarters of mile distant.
The fire attracted the attention of Mr..
Howe's son who gave the alarm and
started for the burning building. When
he arrived the kitchen fell in and all
the interior part of the main building
was sheet of flame, and soon burned
to the ground. Mr.. and Mrs. Van
Cleave lost all their household furnr
ture and all their clothing except what
they had on at the time. The furni
| ture was insured for $3.50. We hav,
not learned whether the house was in
sured or not. IN any event the loss l.
quite severe on both Mr.. Van Cleav,
and Mcmillan. Each will have TIT
sympathy of their neighbors ant
friends. The house WAS one-stOTy
frame l6x24 with kitchen 14x16.

Drawing to a Close.

The seasons work for the canning
factory is drawing TO close and the
amount of goods put up and already
sold is very gratifying. There are
few tomatoes coming in, but the cool
weather is shutting down on the ripen-
ing and a few more Gays will suffice to
stop work altogether.
One hundred and fifty thousand cans
of tomatoes have been put up and
about one hundred and ten thousand
cans of other vegetables, making in all
two hundred and sixty thousand cans.
This Is good showing when we take
into consideration that it is the COM
pany's first year and everything was
new and the hands we're nnaccustomed
to the work Excepting Manager
O'Loughlin and his sons and that the
farmers and gardeners were some
what afraid to venture contract for
many acres. Next year the amount
will without doubt be more than
doubled. Another more gratifying
thing is the fact that all grocers of the
city are handling the home product
and are selling double the amount they
are selling OF any other brand.
During the winter it is the aim OF
the company to make all cans needed
for next years crop right in the factO-
ry building in this city. thus bringing
work to many hands both winter and
summer. This is both saving to the
company and also TO the consumer, as
the latter viii be given the benefit OF
the saving ia the cost of canning,
Many family in the city has made
enough during the present season at
the factory to feed and clothe them
selves during the coming winter. and
as can be testified by the laborers
many an urgent want has been re-
lieved by the wages received from the
canning company.

"Well,'' he replied, $50 far as have

that the deficiency of this years crop,
compared with last year, is about 1854,
600, 900 bushels. That, you under
stand, is the aggregate deficiency OF
the entire world. The lightness of the
crop is a matter of almost universal

One of the neatest little pamphlets
that has ever been published in this
city or county, or even in the state, has
just been finished by the Republican
office, under the direction of Miss A.
e. Dixon, county superintendent, and
Prof. J. N. Wilkinson of the State Nor
NAL. It is about the size Of the Nor
NAL note book and contains informa-
ton carefully compiled for the use of
teachers. pupils and parents of our
county schools. The books are beng
freely distributed over the county and
no teacher should fail to have several
in his or her district.
The introduction states plainly the
object of the pamphlet, viz: To provide
q systematic classification of the
schools, course of work adapted to
their needs. definite amount
of work for each grade, and last, but
not least, a permanent record of the
advancement of each pupil. The adj
vantage of these aims is apparent to
all who are in anyway ac-
quainted with school work.
A course of study is then given
for Urinary, intermediate and gram
mar grades. The instructions are
short, but to the point.
Following the course of study is q
brief historical sketch Of Lyon county
which is full of facts with which every
one in the county should become famil-
lar. Further on short sketch of the
history and geography of the state is
given and also a statement of the OBJ
ject of the institutions supported
by the state funds. Excel
lent cuts of the State Normal of this
city, Agricultural College of Manhattan
and the State University at Lawrence
appear next.
The next twenty pages are given VI
to practical suggestions in the methods
of teaching all studies included in the
course of study previously Civ
en-. A few points on common
school law then follow and q
plea is sent forth for teachers to attend
all the meetings of the teachers assO
