Where to Get Honest Work at Reasonable
Prices.

Where to Get Honest Work at Reasonable
The firm of Creighton & Davies has not
been as long established in the house paint
ing, paper.hapging and decorating line in
this city as some others now here, but dur.
ing the time they have been in business
they have won an enviable reputation for
quick, honest work at reasonable prices.
It is about three years since they first e.
tablished in business here, and being excel
lent workmen they soon attracted atten'
ton to themselves by the superiority OF
their work as we'll as it's rapid manner Of
execution. The latter is of itself an object
of prime necessity with most people, es-
pecially business house. No man wants
his place of business barricaded and block
AIDED by stepladders and scaffoldings be-
longing to paper-hangers longer than abso-
lutely necessary, and the rapidity with
which the firm OF Creighton & Davies COM
plete their contracts as we'll as the good
taste displayed IN all their work make them
the best men in the town to employ for
this purpose.
To ensure perfection in their business
they carry full lines OF the latest wall pa
pers, including the following: Damascenes
at SO cents a roll; ditto borders, $3.50;
felts, ingrains and GRANTEES at 80 cents q
roll; borders to match at from $1.5O to
81; satins at 80 cents; gifts from so cents
to 81; embossed gifts from so cents to 81;
white blanks 25 cents; borders ranging
from 81 to $3.50 per roll, and have con.
stantly on hand full supplies OF the best
paints obtainable. II q man wants good
| Job of house. painting, where the best ma.
terials are used, and where the result will
| be piece of work that looks well and
lasts for years, let him employ Creighton d
| Davies, and he will get the worth OF his
| money. During the season they keep ten
men constantly employed, and enjoy q
wider patronage than any other firm ir
town in their line of business. Numerous
artistically decorated stores and private
residences here testify to the excellence O
their handiwork. including Jahreiss' bar
her shop, Goldberg's jewelry store, thu
CRYSTAL and host of others.
The success that has attended this tirn
during their short career and the extent tt
which they are patronized by all who ar
once their customers are the best evidence
of their worth and the satisfaction they
give to anyone needing anything in tn
painting, paper handing or house-decorat
ing line.
Messrs. Creighton & Davies were the frs
firm in their line to raise the standard
wages of their workmen, paying thei
paperhangers Sc day when other firm
were paying their men as low as $3.50
They believe in giving good pay and gettin
good work and their customers receive tn
benefit of their farsightedness.

By FIRE MONDAY.

Houses that Escaped Total Wreckage by
the Waters Burned to the Ground.
Twenty-Five thus Destroyed-Causes of
the Fire-The Work of Clearing up tho
Debris-Reducing the Force OF La
bOrers. ~.
JoHNsrowN, Pa, June 24.-A sweeping
fire broke out in the First ward at 1890
this afternoon. The flames spread rap.
idly, and in half an hour twenty houses
were burning. All the engines in the place
were called out. The most intense excite.
ment prevails. Nearly all the houses burn.
ing were more or less destroyed by the
food. The wind is high and the fire is
spreading rapidly toward Kernvile. 1t
has gotten beyond the control OF the fire
department., and now covers five acres.
THE WORK OF THE FLAMES.
JoHNsTowN, June 24.-The fire in the
first ward consumed all but three buildings
in the district bounded by Market and
Walnut streets and by Main street and the
river. Twenty-Five houses were totally de-
had been washt d away from their 1founda.
tions, though many ofthem contained house.
hold goods which had been saved from the
food: but small amount OF these goods was
saved. The fire, it is supposed, originated
from sparks flying from burning debris in
the neighborhood.
THE WORK OF CLEARING AWAY THE RUINS.
Notwithstanding the fierce fire, the num-
ber Of men employed in the ruins was re-
duced nearly one-balf to-day. A remark
able showing was made in the way Of clear
ing up the wreckage. Another heavy blast
in the debris above the railroad bridge and
the place will probably be cleared by Thurs.
day.
This afternoon at about O'Clock q
charge of dynamite exploded near the
second arch from the east end OF the bridge.
From the great body OF the wreckaRe
tossed, and the remnants afterwards
gathered together, it is estimated that at
least six corpses has been blown up. Much
of the drift, which had been dislodged from
the stone bridge. has lodged in various
places, extending as far below as Coopers-
dale. A force of men began to move these
distractions, which have rendered useless
a great part OF the work at the bridge.
THE WORK OF THE WEEK.
JoHNsTowN, June 24.-Col. Spangler in
charge OF the commissary, has presented
his weekly report to Adiutant General
Hastings. The report shows 25, 200 people
still being daily fed here by the state, q re.
duction ir number OF $500 during the
week. Spangler recommends that the re-
lief money be turned over to the citizens
and that the necessary supplies be pur.
chased from the 16 general stores and
three bakeries now running here. The re-
port suggests that one.third OF the present
commissary be abolished on Wednesday
next. The town clerk OF Cambria borough
has just completed a list showing that in
that place alone 325 houses have been
swept away and not even b trace OF them
can be found. The bodies OF two women,
a child and Chinaman were found to-day.

PINE RIDGE AGENCY, June 24.-There has
been a conference this afternoon, at which
few Indians except those who favor the bill
were present. All efforts to secure the sup

Tonight there is little encouraging news

secured the same day that the letter OF
Godfrey, who is said to be secretary OF the
indian defense association, was received by
the commissioners, asking postponement

The work of the commissioners goes on,
and there is no evidence of any weakening
of the effort on their part: This evening at

THE MURDERED FAMILY.

The Kurtz and Briggs Families Respect
ed German PeOple-The Child.
From the Helena "Herald:" Mr.. and
Mrs. Kurtz were we'll known to a number
of our citizens. They were thrifty we'll to-
do Germans and managed the boarding
house at the Grass Valley Mine. The
wagon in which they were travelling had
been bought of A. J. Davidson's establish
ment little over three months ago, al
though at that time it was intended for
use at the mine. When the operations
ceased at the mine Mr.. Kurtz hauled i'll
the pumps and other machinery, which
was stored at Davidson's warehouse. He
bought some springs for the wagon seat
and stated that he intended to make
trip across the country, and he and family
departed on the 26th OF May last.
The Kurtz family was most highly re-
spected and well liked among their numer-
GUS acquaintances.
THE LITTLE GIRL
was the daughter OF Mr.. Julius Schauss,
who for long time was trusted employe
OF the firm of Dewitt & Arnold, OF this
city. Health and other causes made it
imperative for him to 60 East, and he
placed the little girl in the hands OF Mr..
and Mrs. Kurtz, bis wife having died some
time previous. "This bright, fair-haired
little darling" said prominent attorney,
''was the pleasure OF all who knew her, and
when made out the papers OF adoption
last summer congratulated the family on
their acquisition" Mr.. Schauss is now in
Omaha, and the news OF his daughter 8
tragic end will no doubt be a severe shock
to him.
THE BRIGGS FAMILY
is comparatively unknown here. Careful
inquiry SO far has failed in tracing any OF
their history or any one who could give
any definite information concerning them
and it is believed that they joined Mr..
Kurtz's party at some other point than
Helena.
