THREE PERSONS CREMATED.
An Ohio Town Almost Wiped Ont--Msny
Escape In Their Night Clothes.

A disastrous FIRE nearly swept out OF exist
ence the business portion of the town of
Cygnet, Ohio, Is miles north of Findlay, and
resulted in the loss of three lives.
The fire started in the millinery store OF
Mrs. Leon Maloney above which slept Mr..
Malnney and his 4-year-old daughter and his
b. other-in-Iaw, Michael Slattery of Pennsyl-
ania, who was visiting there. These three
were suttotated by the smoke and burned to
a crisp their chsrrcd remains being raked
from the ruins.
Mrs. Maloney and another child escaped in
their night clothes and are in q precarious
condition.
The fire destroyed the grocery store of II.
D. Hahn drug store owned by l.. J. yers,
the dry goods and clothing store of Jacob
Fenberg, notion store of W. II. Belknap, the
barber shop OF William Davis and the hard.
ware aud oil supply store of the Buckeye
Supply Company.
All of the buildings were occupied by
families in the second story. all of the persons
escaping in their night clothes, some of them
receiving injuries, but none serious, except
Jacob Fenberg, who inhaled hot smoke so
that his condition is critical.
The total loss amounts to 500 900, with nc
insurance, except upon the Buckeye stock,
which was well insured. Cygnet is the centre
OF the big oil fields of Wood county.

There are always new illustrations of
the Influence of example, and here is
cue of them. The proprietor of large
mercantile establishment in this city
strides lcftily across its floors and
through its various departments daily
looking after things. His stride Is
strong and impressive, and it is cust-
ons fact that, in the course Of years.
this stride has come to be uneonsciouaiy
copied by all the employees of the ss-
tabIisement The heads of the depart
ments initiate his example by stridtng
Rapidly across the floor; so do the clerks
on every story; so do the boys in train
ing for clerkships. Some of there
formerly walked about in a shutting
way or i'll other dubious ways; but, Of.
Ter while, all of them stride in the
proprietor's style. Even a couple Of
feminine typewriters in the establish
ment show by their movements thai
they have felt the influence OF his strid-
ent example. -Nelg York Sun.

Great Disadvantages of Being early

Great Disadvantages of Being an early
Bird.
The fact that chicken goes to bed
at shutdown, says the Kansas City Star,
would be proof positive that it "has no
sense at all" if there were any reason
in the world why chicken should stay
up. On the other hand, owls stay up at
night, and if the chicken has the ad-
vantage of the owl in the way of health,
recreation or longevity the fact has es-
capped the scientists. However, to re-
turn to human beings, it is not dis
puted that there are great many peo-
pie in this world who are much better
off in bed at 8 O'Clock than out of ii.
Their retirement to the sheets is dis
tinctly to the advantage of society.
Among such PEOPLE may be classed all
invalids and small children, men who
yawn, aid women who object to tobacco
smoke, the Unconditional Cassias who
cloves no plays" aud hears no music,
and the peevish Jacques, who "sucGs
melancholy out of a song as weasel
sucks eggs" and who will sleep if lie
can, and if he cannot, will rail against

Maria's punch or forswear o cup of
canary. They grant you. it you will,
that they are shortening their lives a
couple of years more or less, but the
price is cheap, and they never miss it.
They know that the charming hours Of
oil the twenty-fou have come when
the lights are dim and half the world
is snoring, when the city has sett ed
down like Il graveyard, aud when a pipe
takes on that rich, rank flavor which
would not be tolerated. 10 the polite Cir
cles of the business day. The very
stiffness of the night seems to lend ac-
tivity to the brain. 1t is at midnight or
thereabout that the best stories are
told, the wittie,t epigrams are thrown
off, and the brightest thoughts are
flashed into expression. 1t is at mid

Just as two young girls will chatter over
the pleasures of the ball room after re-

night, that the student loves his book

ever else may be tolerated by sumptuary
legislation. This is not the rule Of lie

ReesiD "A Church.

Several years ago a swarm OF bees
entered church spire in Western
town. They have passed three winters
there and appear to be doing well. The
church stands where it is exposed to
severe storms from all directions. The
spire Is covered with inch lumber, which
is most covered with tin. The cavity
occupied equals ten ordinary hives.
The large cavity does not prevent
swarming, as quite number of swarns
have been secured by persons living
near.

STARVATION IN KANSAS.
Families Living on sixty Cents n Week
Chop zap Furniture for Fuel.

Chop up Furniture for Fuel.
A heavy snow storm has been raging in
Northwestern Kansas for nearly three DAYS.
and the reports which are coming in from
those counties where most of the residents OF
the unproductive farms are destitute are har.
rowing in the extreme.
In Decatur county the Commissioners have
given the suffering families orders on stores
for provisions TO the amount of % cents per
week. This rule has been followed in several
other counties where merchants would take
county orders. This small sum is all that the
people have had to keep themselves from
starvation. They are suffering from intense
cold, and many of them have been compelled
to chop up their furniture for fuel
Governor Humphrey has caused all surplus
coal at the Penitentary Mines at Leaven-
worth TO e shipped to the needy counties for
distribution. The need for relief is more
pressing than ever and unless food, clothing
and fuel is sent there in large quantities,
many deaths may result.

BANGOR, Nov. 1A.~-There was a great
gathering of Maine republicans at Augusts
this week. and the campaign of 1892 in this
state and somo of the lessons Of the result
in 1891 in other states we're thoroughly dla'
cussed. The governor was not on hand
but nearly every other republican of any
account took part in the powwow. sena-
tors Hale and Frye. Congressman Boutel!e,
Dingley and Milllken, the Hon. Charles
Libby, president of the senate, the Hon. A.
p. Wiswell, speaker OF the house. and
many others, wero there and all had some
thing to say.
Everybody seems convinced that the
liquor question will remain a thorn in the
side Of the republican party in Maine until
it is settled once for all by the substitution
of license for impotent prohibition; and,
rejecting upon the victory of Gov. Boles III
Iowa and the gradual but undoubted change
IF public sentiment in this state, the re-
publican managers have reached that point
where they are seriously considering the
a%dvisability Of unloading the burden of our
unpopular and useless law. The only ,qnes-
ton ia one of time. Astute politicians
think the day is not far distant when. ii
the attitude of the republicans remains I'M
changed tho democratic party will ride into
W in this state on u license platform,
and this Is what worries far-seeing. repub-
licans. who realize that, although the crisis
may be avsrsed for a time, the day Will
oome.
The republican state committee has en-
powered it's executive committee to arrange
for the holding of the next state conven-
ton, and it is likely hat the convention
will be held in Bangor in June.
