FIRE.

Early Monday morning a fire broke
out in the building known as the old
City Hall, and used since It's removal
by Mr.. Wagner as a tenement house.
Mr.. Wagner bought the building from
the city last summer, and had it over
hauled and fitted up to rent, at cost of
six hundred dollars or over, which is
not all paid yet. He had recently
rented the lower fiat to Herman Fritz,
and the upper fiat to a hard working
man named Leffelbein. The inmates
Of the house were awakened by the
cracking of flames, and those on the
upper floor escaped with only a few
articles of clothing and bedding. The
family on the lower floor were a little
more fortunate. The fire alarm apara-
tus was out of order, and before the
fire ladders could be called it was too
late to save either building or contents,
and in the bitter cold of a Decem bcr
morning two families found themselves
out in the streets homeless, Mr.. Fritz
soon found shelter for his family, and
Mrs Wagner opened her doors to the
Lefelbein household who are left desti-
tute. \ subscription is being raised to
help them start again. Anyone who
can contribute money, clothes, furni-
ture or provisions will do kind act by
leaving them at Mrs. Wagner's. There
are two little children, a boy, and a girl
There is hardly anything that would
come amiss and we bespeak a generous
supply of the necessities Of a home.
The fire is supposed to have originated
from live ashes and Goals, carelessly
put in barrel, in an clubhouse in close
proximity to the building, which was
old and dry.
| The loss falls heavily on Mr.. and Mrs
| Wagner, whose combined earnings had
been put IN the investment in the hope
of settled income, there was no in.

HOW TO KILL THE MINISTER

1t is such an easy thing to do. Only
follow the following eight simple rules,
and you will find him growing spirit
less, disheartened, his sermons dry,
uninteresting, his feeble efforts fruitless !;
he will merit all your criticisms, but
the best of this unfailing receipt is,
that it may help you to see how not to
do it.
/. Absent yourself from service
every Sabbath, or miss at least one in
every three services.
.. Never attend any of the prayer
meetings; show him that you value
these less than you do a lecture, or con-
cert, or any other evening entertain
ment
8. If your minister proposes to hold
extra meetings for the purpose Of doing
good, be sure and Withhold your cooper
ration.
4. Give yourself no concern about
his salary, whether it is paid or not.
5. Criticise your minister freely.
6. Praise him very sparingly.
Z. Find fault with him plentifully.
s. Pray for him seldom or never.
.--o zszz---
RP Don't forget that you can find
anything you may need in the line of
overcoats, at NJ. J. McRaith's. He has
also a fine assortment of winter suitlngs.

If not, why not?
