To the People of Great F'uzls and
Surrounding Country;
Another grand old year has drifted
by, leaving in its hurricane path the
ruins Of destruction. But here and
there monument that had with
stood the terrific storm, landmark
after landmark, historic in magnifi-
cent attainments, colossal in the enor-
nous aggregate of business, and ap-
parently as solid as the eternal noun
tains, have been buried and forgot
ten. There are mountain rocks that
have defied the mighty winds Of ten
thousand centuries. There is the
Giant Spring that has withstood the
fury of the mighty Missouri and
there are concerns who have rode
upon the wings Of the Storm KING
of 1888 and stand upon the conquer
ing heights, bolder, greater and
wealthier than ever before. Upon
their excelcior banner were written
in fadeless letters: ''The Almighty
dollar" Selling goods for spot cash
at a very small margin has more than
met our expectations with the close
OF the preseut year, and while MAX
ing active preparations for the cam
paign of 1889, we can not but pause
and express to our friends grateful
appreciation Of past favors and ten
der our sincere thanks for their kind
patronage. We trust that by fair
dealing and low prices that we may
increase our business with you the
coming season.
With compliments Of the season
and warmest wishes for your success,
we are, yours very truly,

a share in their education, or in some
thing which gives vent to those affec.
tions which are implanted by nature
in the breast Of woman, she becomes
happy.
This, then, appears to me to be
the secret too much neglected in fe-
male education. Teach the girls, by
all means, that one great source of
happiness consists in the indulgence
OF vlrtuous affection; but do not teach
them there is no affection capable of
producing this happiness except such
as may be felt for lover or husband.
1t the heart be properly regulated it
may take warm and sufficiently
engrossing interest in many objects
less intimately connected with it.
Marriage is sad lottery, and, at the
best, is state full OF cares and anx-
letles. Freedom and independence
ought not to be lightly parted with
or set down as possessions of little
value.

CHILDREN BURNED TO DEATH.
A Christmas Play Becomes q Terrible
Disaster.

DETROIT, MICH, Dec. 20.-Thirty children in
the Tilden public school were rehearsing yes
terday afternoon for a Christmas cantata which
was to have been produced this afternoon for
their schoolmates and friends, costumed in
gauzy stuff and cotton batting. About twenty
Of them remained until o'clock, when they
were making the final rehearsal of chorus
One of them held a candle close to the pianist
that she might more easily read her notes in
the growing darkness when one of the chill
dren, who was swinging a wand, accidentally
knocked the candle out of its holders hand
against the dresses of the children nearest and
into pile OF inhammable stuff near by. The
costumes took FIRE instantly and before
the teachers could put out the flames sixteen
children were badly burned, two fatally, three
others so badly that they will die and eleven
others seriously.
An alarm brought police and hospital ambu-
lance to the scene. The building did not catch
fire, else the loss OF life might have been
greater. Jennie Lankspean, aged fifteen, was
burned about the body horribly. dying at mid
night. Bertha Moody, aged twelve, was burned
about the hips, head, arms and face and died
this morning.
Bessie Bainford. aged fourteen, was burned
about the body from the waist up and will die.
Nellie Westgate, aged thirteen had her hair
burned off. inhaled flame and is given up by
the doctors. Lucy Renshaw, aged fifteen, was
burned IN q similar manner. The physicians
have little hope OF the recovery OF these chill
dren.
In addition Carrie Beulliff, Cora Sherrick,
Bessie Zealey, Edna HollOnds, Mabel Symes
GeorgIe HOrner, Alexander Mcmillan, Edith
Wheeler, Mildred Raquet and Jennie Robinson
were severely burned
The scene during the panic ensuing was a
frlghtful one. Two of the little boys, Edward
Wheelen ard Alexander Mcmillan. pulled the
burning costumes off the children and tore the
flags and draperies from the walls. thus pre-
venting the spread of the blaze. The ambu-
lance removed the children to their homes.
