Troy.

Troy's beautiful correspondent (oI
beautiful Troy's correspondent, of the
Herald, has not been heard from for
sometime. He undoubtedly exhausted
all his feeble wits on his recent tlrarde
against the churches, the christians, and
the God who created him. Perhaps he
has became ashamed of himself, as we
hore he has, and skunk into agreeable
silence.
Mr.. Editor with your permission
wish to correct the above from Castleton.
I think the gentleman christian some
thing like the priest that cursed those
forty and two children. Sir l said not
one word against the churches, neither
did l say one word against the God that
made me. Not one word. We did say
this, that we did not believe the bear
storys that God would treat children in
such cruel way, but rather believe that
the priest that would curse would lie.
Christ at one time said, "sutfer little chill
uE6u W COu6 uuIO Ho lOF VI SuCu ID bue
kingdom Of heaven" then why should l
believe that he would let His old she
bear loose on them after teaching US, ITO
do unto others as you would have them
do unto you" Neither do l believe that
the God that made me ever told Moses
or any other man to kill the old men
and to mix their grey hair with blood.
l will believe in good God or none
My friend if you believe those things are
so and will give us your name in your
next, 1 want to see you. We are
not ashamed to sign our name.

Big Fire and Loss ofLife.

CHICAGO, Nov. 22.-Fire attended
with loss of life broke out this morning
in the seven story building at 2l5 and
217 Van Buren, street. The fire origi-
mated on the fifth floor and the occu-
pants, including men, women and
children, became panic stricken and
made a dash for the stairs, the eleva.
tors and window. Two girls, terrified
with fright, rushed to the windows,
and, despite the cries of the crowd to
wait for ladders. threw themselves
into the street, breaking nearly every
bone in their bodies. They were taken
to the hospital, where it was said both
would die. A ladder was finally raised
and the firemen rushed up it just as
another girl leaped from the window.
The fremen caught her dress, barely
in time to prevent her from falling.
The fire spread rapidly and jumped
the alley and ignited q large seven
story building occupied by several con-
Germs. The four upper stories of the
buildi lgs were quite. d AID the loss it :s
estimated will exceed $500, 000. Later
the walls fell burying several fremen
in the ruins, and four of them are be,
lieyed to be dead.
