ORGAN FACTORY Blu aNs.
Fire Breaks out in the Old Building Sat
urday Night

A fire of considerable magnitude
broke out late Saturday evening in the
old organ factory at the corner of
Church and Wisconsin streets. The
flames enveloped the building in a
short time and it looked very much as
if the old structure, which has been a
landmark for so many years, was
doomed to destruction. However,
the fire department arrived early and
soon had the fire under control. The
fire originated in room on the second
floor of the building occupied by man
named John O'Neal, who kept bache-
lor quarters in the room. He had been
cooking his supper on a gas stove and
early in the evening Larson and
Swartz, two other residents of the
house, went to his room and found 1t
filled with smoke. According to the
story of the men O'Neal had been
drinking and didn't seem to care
whether the place burned or not. The
gas stove was put out and all was
thought to be we'll, but later in the
evening the fire broke out again, and
could not be held in check. The loss
from the fire will be over $500. Mr..
Wulff claims that the building is dam
aged to the amount Of 5000 and the
property belonging to the residents of
the place was badly damaged by
smoke and water There was no
insurance on either the building OF the
household goods belonging to the ten
ants

A Good Snrnrisa.

This seems to be week of surprises,
or at least surprise parties. On Mon
day night Thos. Yates, the genial
treasurer of Pleasant Prairie, was. the
willing victim. Between and 8
O'Clock in the evening number of
stag friends called and notified Tom
that they had come for good time.
His wife planned the surprise herself,
as the occasion was MIR. Yates birth
day, and had elaborate refreshments
ready which the company enjoyed after
having spent the evening playing cinch
and other games. About midnight, as
the guests were ready to depart, T. l..
Carpenter, the chairman of the sur
prisers," got up and with a neat little
speech presented the host with a gold
watch as a token of their friendship
and esteem for their neighbor who had
lived among them for the past fifteen
years. This second surprise complete
" hoored Tom and he could scarcely
talk, but managed to thank his friends
and neighbors for their elegant gift
and 4" pocketed the watch"
Tuesday night Mr.. Yates was pre-
sented with a chain to go with his
watch. Mrs. Yates and some of the
neighbors who were not in the watch
deal, would not be left out in the cold,
SO they went to town the first thing
Tuesday morning and bought the chain.

SPANS star spangled Banner.

BY RAYMOND MOREHOUsE.
Oh say, can you see III the Don's Manila fight
What was once proud fleet of armed Spanish
cruisers,
Who left their fair land to whip Uncle Sam,
For fighting they thought the Spanish were
bruisers,
But when Dewey got there" with his shells
filled the air.
He asked for the Spaniards and echo answered
where?
Chorus
Oh where are the Spaniards, the spantards so
brave,
From the shore can be seen in Santiago bay
A 1eet Of fine vessels that's worth kings
ransom,
Who sailed out from Spain to try us again,
But like the Phillistines they have met their
Sampson,
And when he them meets they'll run or get
beat,
And Wen add their squadron to Uncle Sans
fleet
Then the stars and the stripes over Cuba shall
wave,
The LAND of the free and not of the slave.
Thus it shall ever be with this land of the free,
When tyrants shall WELD the rod of oppression
This can never be on this side of the sea,
Or Uncle Sammy will WELD the rod of correc-
Then remember the Maine and don't try it
again,
For on this side of the ocean this is our refrain
Chorus
The Star Spangled Banner forever shall wave
Der the land of the free and the home of the
brave.
