A Fierce Fire at the Ii gan Colli,ry Spe, diIy
ExtlnguIshed.
Special to the HERALD.
CENTRALIA, March 3O-What might
have proved a very disastrous fire was
started in the Logan colliery yesterday.
An old man employed about the monkey
rollers dropped lighted lamp on some
boards covered with oil. These took fire
and the flames spread with such rapidity
that for a time it seemed the breaker was
doomed, but by the prompt action of some
employees under the direction of Superin-
tendent Edward Reese number of
streams were soon in play and the fire was
extinguished before any great damage
was5done, The damage was limited to
the burning of some frame work under
the breaker in the vicinity of the rollers.

The first comment heard on the streets
of town last night upon the dispatches to
the effect that ten thousand men in the
soft coal region would strike on Monday
next was: "Well, that ought to make
times good here" People may talk them
selves hoarse about the rights of labor
and the rights of labor organization, but
they can't get away from the fact that
charity begins at home" is n powerful
thought and argument, While there are
no doubt thousands of honest, fair
minded men here wishing success to the
men who are about to strike in the soft
coal region, there must be thousands of
the same men who feel-in a spirit of
unconscious selfishness-that the strike
would be a GOd-send to this region. The
anthracite and bituminous coal workers
are still in the balanCe-One on the day
and the other on the night shift, as it
were, always changing shifts, but never
working together. A few years ago the
anthracite men were well organized and
the bituminous men were on deck to keep
the market going, in a pinch, Now the
bituminOus men are apparently well
organized and the anthracite men are
well, just about starved out and waiting
for something to give way. If the miners
are to accomplish anything the balance
put upon a scale which registers upon a
good, united pull. When it comes to the
balance business the workingmen are not
in it with the corporations. But every
body won't look at it in this light When
a customer once asked a grocer when he
had returned from the seashore the
merchant calculated with some bitter
ness, Vat do you mean to say dere il

prepared, people who may leave town
within the next few weeks and not return
until next fall will hardly recognize the
main intersection of the principal streets
in the town. Tht southeast corner of the
intersection decorated with an imposing
new structure and electric cars run east
and west as well as north and south will
make quite change. The contract for
erecting Il building to succeed the frame
structure now being razed has been
awarded and the work will be pushed to
completion, it is expected, by August list,
next. Frank b. Wilson is the contractor.
The new building will be of brick and
three stories high 1t will have a front
age of thirty feet on Main street and a
depth of fifty-five feet on Centre street.
The first floor will be fitted up for store
rooms, the second for law and other
offices, and the third for a lodge room 1t
is not buying cat in the bag to say that
if the proposed new structure proves to
be anywhere within range of modern
ideas that corner will be the principal one
in the town. Although the most unat-
tractive of the four corners at that inter-
section it is in fact the most attractive,
and when the electric cars get ia opera
tion on two sides of it we may depend
upon it that for business purposes it will
cut a shine, This property is owned by
Miss Maggie A. Egan, or at least the con
tract for the improvements is in her name.
1t is suggested that a departure be taken
from the customary Shenandoah method
of designating buildings and that when
the new structure is complete it bear, in
some appropriate place, the name, "Eg-
lantine." The name itself is very sweet
and by a little ingenuity (Eg(Dau- tine)
can be made to perpetuate the name of
family.

concert at Lexington, Thursday evening.
They report an immense and very sp.

was characterized by exquisite technique,
fine expression and excellent finish.
The vocal solos and Duets by Miss
Braems and A. q. Mora, were finely ex-
cuted-full of feeling and harmony.
Every solo and duett, both vocal and
instrumental, was heartily encored and
equally as heartily responded to. Mr..
Otto Lund, the violin soloist, and Mr..
Hoch, the cornet virtuoso, were each
encored twice. The grand duett, "At
Night" by Messrs Blodeck and Stoelzer,
was very fine number. The people
enjoyed the concert so thoroughly that

gram they secured twenty.four

DEAR NEPHEw:--Yours of the 23d inst
received, and in reply would say that
have not introduced bill to authorize
any village to buy electric light plants,
and do not know why such report is in
circulation. Judge Higgins was in
Columbus, short time ago, and while
in the Senate Chamber, said to me, "I
see you have introduced bill for cer-
tain villages to buy electric light
plants" l said, "No, I had not intro
duced anything of the kind" He said,
II see by the papers you have" 1 told
him l had introduced a bill to allow
villages owning and operating electric
light plants to place them in the hands
OF water works trustees and three mem
bers of Council. While it was general
bill, l had introduced it so as to place
our own plant in Greenfield under
board OF management. This was at the
request of the Mayor, Council, and
water works trustees of our village. I
have always regarded Judge Higgins as
friend, and cannot see why if that re.
port is in circulation, after my telling
him what l did when he was in Colum
bus, that he did not correct the same,
instead of allowing it published ad
versely from what 1 told him. Please
