The Commissioners Decide to Make q
Fill Near Massillon,
The committee from the Maasillon
council, and the county commissioners ar
rived at conclusion yesterday with refer
euce To cuts and fills near Massillon along
She line Of the proposed electric road.
The commissioners recognized the fact
that the general public need 20 have the
all made at the point ia question and
were therefore willing to assist in
making the road more passable. The idea
of the commissioners was to make good
road for the public, as a change in grade
has long been needed at this point. They
therefore made the proposition that I'LL
of about 10 feet should be made and agreed
allat they would pay for two-fltth Of the
work, Massillon to pay two-hfths and the
Gownship the remaininR one-tlfth. This
Sgas all the commissioners felt like doing,
but the proposition was accepted, the
commissioners agreeing that IL any more
of fill would be required for the street
railway the other parties would have TO
anake Il. The fill is necessary to make at

COMRADESHIP.
By KATE BRowNLER SHERWOOD,


Comrade, tried In battles many,
on the far outposts Of time,
Tell me- Comrade, Is there any
Sign or signal so sublime,
AS the name we name each other
Hating In the ranks to-day?
"Uomrade, like the name Of mother,
How 1t charms all cares away
Comrade IN all sorts of weather,
In the sunshine, IN the snow,
We have shared our Crusts together
We have fought the furious foei
We have felt the bullets raking,
Standing by each other true;
While the sad Old earth WAS shaking,
Side by side we strugg ed through.
We have shared each others sorrow.
We have shared each others Joy,
When II seemed that no tomorrow
Could our hearts and hands employ;
We have supped with death and danger
When defeat has laid us low;
Shared our exile with the stranger,
Love alone to ease the blow.
COmraQe, Wneu among lIt uN4ub'
Came the news that she, my bride,
In her lOwly grave was lying,
with her baby at her side,
Yours the tender arms that bore me
Through the solemn, somber wood,
You who kept sad vlgils DER .
whispered, "COmrade, God Is good"
COmrade, when my vision darEens,
When my steps are silent grown,
And the ear impatient hearkenS
For once familiar tone;
Lay the starry nag above me,
Pin my badge upon nay breast,
Weep not, COmrade, rs you love me,
Thus 4 solder goes to rest,
Comrade, when the "Assembly's"souni!ng

And the Silent Army gathers
From the valleys OF unrest;
And they call the roll OF heroes.
And they answer loud and clear,
How my heart will swell with rapture,

OF work all around and one Of which the
firemep may we'll feel proud. Chief
Ohliger and Assistant Chief Talbot we're
everywhere present, giving directions and
rendering assistance.
ORIGIN OF THE FIRE.
There is in the cellar a large furnace,
the building being heated with hot, air.
The fire started at this furnace and made
its way up stairs along the partitions and
outside walls. The manner in which the
fire travelled is truly remarkable. In
every room in the house there is evidence
OF the fire being between the inside plas-
tering and the outside wall. II ct rtainly
must have been a hard one TO fight. All
the rooms suff cred more or less and the
entire house will have to be gone over be.
fore IL will be ready for occupancy. The
building is not completely gutted but will
have to be overhauled entirely and new
ioists put ia TO make the floors safe.
ESTIMATING THE LOSS.
The front part of the building is occu-
pied by Plimpton Balls grocery store.
The fire made its way into the store after
burning through the cellar doors. The
rear part of store was badly burned and
much OF the stock damaged or COM
pletely destroyed. The stock is valued at
about $500, aud is insured with Joseph
will completely cover the loss,
The building was new one, erected by
Mr.. L. j. Myers at a cost of 5000. 1t 10
partly brick structure and partly frame,
the frame portion OF the walls being on
the inside. Between the brick wall and
the inside plastering is space which
made veritable flue for the flames to
make their way. The damage 10 the
building cannot be estimated correctly,
but IL will probably approximate 5000.
There is an insurance on the building
with Piero q Bro, for 5000, the Pacific
Insurance company of New York having
81, 500 and the United Firemen of Philadel
phia $500. The companies were notified
today and the adjusters will arrive to
morrow. Mr.. Myers when seen this morn
ing stated that he would fix the building
up Immediately. He will delay his action
only until the insurance is adjusted.
AToTAL LOSS.
The fire is a particularly unfortunate
one for DR.. Pyle, He had just fitted
up his hospital in excellent style
and was making it a success. Over
81, GOO worth of furniture and fixtures had
been put in and much OF this is destroyed
by fire and water. He has delayed the
matter of insurance and consequently did
not have dolla2's worth of insurance on
his goods. His loss is about $i00. While
the building is being fitted up he is occu-
pying offices with DR.. Landor. His friends
sympathize with him deeply in his loss,
Two patients would have been operated
on Tuesday, the operation TO be laparot'
omy, and had they been in the building
at the time it is altogether probable that
they would have perished in the flames.
Miss Miller was taken care OF at the resi-
dence of MIR. Alex Hurford after her
escape from the building,
