FIRE NEAR EAGLE LAKE.

A fire occurred Thursday evening
about five o'clock on the farm of f.
Compton, one and a half miles east of
Eagle Lake, consuming his barn, a
very fine team of horses, harness and
three hogs, two large stacks of hay
and considerable barley was also burn
ed.
The fire started from sparks blown
from stump by the roadside where
the fire box from Bromling & Ander-
sons traction engine had been dump
ed last Monday, and which had set
the stump on fire. 1t was supposed,
however, that the fire had been en-
tirely eXtinguished, but the hot, dry
winds of Wednesday and Thursday
had evidently famed the dying en-
bers to life,
Mr. Compton was absent from home
at the time of the confiagratiOn, and
Mrs. G. being alone was helpless to
save anything. The loss was about
$500, with no insurance.

years of age, lies in critical condi-

miles east of Amboy. Last week
Thursday he worked hard in the har-

morning he went to his brothers
place and was pumping water when
he suffered severe stroke Of paraly-
sis, affecting his left side. 1t took
the united strength of two men to
loosen his grasp of the pump handle,
and then he sank down in state OF
collapse. A Stretcher was improyis,
ed and he was carried home, where he
has since lain. Though somewhat
better he is in very serious condi-
tion, and his recovery will be slow
Mr.. Douglass attended the Normal

and the county will hope that he may
be completely restored to health. DR.

Fred W. Force and f. w. Swift,
agents of the New York Life Insur-
ance Company, received by today's ex-
press from New York, outfits for ell
ing insurance, which excel anything
we have ever seen before in that line.
They are made from sole leather, and
equipped with policy forms and rates
of all companies SO that comparison
can be made between their policies
and those issued by competing COM
panies.
The company gave notice the first
of June, that it would distribute one
hundred of these outfits to that num-
Der of agents in the United States and
Canada who would show the largest
amount of business for that month,
and it is a high compliment to
Messrs. Force and Swift that they
came within the limit of one hundred,
where five Thousand agents were COM
peting.

Right You Are!

Minneapolis Times:
From military quarters there come
demands for large increase of our ma
tional soldiery and more elaborate
and systematic preparations for the
business of killing. What our country
needs is not more soldiery, but more
active interest in local self-govern-
ment and a better spirit of patriotism
toward city, county, state and nation.
The citizen needs to study more deeply
the welfare of his community and par
ticipate more largely in it's develop
ment and prosperity: and the local
authorities need to take better pre-
cautions against possible violations of
the law from the new dangers which
are here and are coming to be of a
threatening character. Our govern
ment, in other words, does not require
strengthening at the top, but at the
hOtfOm
