laws, the counties are authorized to
issue certificates of indebtedness for
current expenses, which are made first
charges on money collected by the

THE FIRE IN THE FURNACE.

III = III Y Z III Z =
Last Thursday, for the first time.
I heard of the fire in the furnace. My
suspicion was at once aroused and
seeking Rev. Mark, the presiding elder,
we went into the basement and insti-
tuted the investigation. We found
bones in the ash box of the furnace and
some bits of belt, buckles and other
things that more than ever confirmed
the suspicion already within my mind.
We had no manner of knowing that
the bones found were those of a hui
man body and so TO satisfy ourselves
took them TO DR.. Jennisen. He was
not sure they were human bones, but
suspicioned it strongly and thereupon
myself and Mark notified the chief of
police. In conjunction with him we
have followed out the investigation,

LAST SEEN OF THE GIRL.

Questioned about the disappearance
of Miss Clausen the reporter was in
formed by Mr.. Hanson the facts as SO
fully related in The Herald of yester
day. The last seen of the missing wo-
man was on Sunday evening, Sept. 20.
After the evening services in the
church were over Rev. Hermans and
Miss Clausen were standing at the top
Of the stairway in front of the door
leading to Mr.. and Mrs. Hanson's
apartments.
Il remember it so distinctly" said
Mr.. Hanson.
1--WE were standing there conversing
together when Rev. Hermans passed
us TO go down into his study, where
Miss Clausen had been sleeping the
past few nights. AS he got down to
the foot of the stairs he spoke TO Miss
Clausen, asking her to bring down his
silk hat, which she did. 1t was just
about $3.50 o'clock in the evening. We
chatted there together for soma time,
and Miss Clausen finally bid us good
night. That was the last ever seen of
Miss Clausen.''
Did Rev. Hermans ever offer any
explanation as to how the girl disap-
peared?'
