lsA\SUH TOWNSHIP.

On Friday last one of the saddest
misfortunes that has befallen any OF
our tOwnsmen for long time, fell IT,
the lot uf our good friend and neiglbor,
f. 7. Graves. Himself and Mike
Sore'n, a young man WHO is at work
for him, were burning off a piece o!
stubble. They had u good li,ebreak
plowed arourd it. and they thought
they were quite safe; but when the fire
reached an old strawpile on the stub
biz, the burning straw began to roll
and tumble over the prairie and 500,
set on fire the grass near the buildings
Two barns were burned, and also the
dwelling with all that was in it. Luck
lily the granary and and almost all the
farm machinery were saved. The loss
it would be hard to estimate very close
ly; the most serious loss is the house
and its contents. The insurance Or
the property lost is about $500, insured
in the German Insurance Company of
Frerp"rt, III. ,his, to lie sure, will be
a great help, though it will leave a
wide gap when the lost property comes
t" be replaced.
If help had been at hand, it is thought
that that the house might have been
saved. Mr.. Graves and bis man Car
ried out some of the more valuable
furniture, bedding, clothing, &C.. and
took it to what they considered a SAFE
distance from the house; but the fire
las'led into fury by the sweeping wind
shot out its tongues Of fame and licked
them as if they had been autumn leaves.
But the most pathetic part of it was
that Mrs. Graves was in the house In
bed with her babe not yet week old.
She was helped to a safe distance, as it
was thought, on the plowed land and
covered with quilts. But even there
the fire reached her, aud one of the
quilts that had been thrown over were
burned. As soon as help arrived, she
was taken to the house of August
Klessig, their nearest neighbor, where
she was tenderly cared for.
Mr.. and Mrs Graves bear their mis-
fortune like philosophers. They well
know that losses are not to be retrieved
by sitting down and wringing ones
hands. Their loss is heavy one. but
they have health, stout hearts aud a
host of friends, and they feel encour-
aged to begin again and rear a new
and cosy home on the ruins If the old
one. We trust it may he many long
day before we need to chronicle such
} another disaster. ROBERT SHORE.

QUAKER SOLEMNITY.
The Utmost Quiet Win Be Observed at the Inauguration of Governor
 Mckinley,

COLUMBUS, O., Dee. 15.-What may be termed Quaker Solemnity'' will mark the forthcoming inauguration of William Mckinley when he enters upon the second successive term of his gubernatorial control of the com monwelth. Heretofore the inaugur- ations of State chief magistrate have been the occasion of considera- ble pomp aud ceremony, including general suspension of business on the part Of commercial and store keeping community, a procession of political clubs affiliated with the faith of the governor-eleet, and q great demon stration within the state-housc grounds patterned very much after the inauguration of a president at Washington. Gov Mckinley, how ever, has very diffarent views con cerning the forthcoming function. He takes the ground that the pre- vailing financial conditions will not warrant a political or partisan dis play, and that the more Jeifersonian the inauguration the more it will be in consonance with existing condi- tions. No parades, no demonstra- ton, no taking of the oath in the presence of multitude, such is the ultimatum of the young Napoleon.
 According to the plons laid out he will simply walk into the chamber of the senate, which body will be in session at the time, take the oath of office and return to the chambers which he has occupied for two hears. 1t will be something unique in the history Of Ohio that the inaugural tion of a governor has taken place without single dollar of expendi- ture being attached thereto and sad dled upon the public purse.
