Mr.. George Leighton, the granite and
marble worker, Stevens Plains avenue,

by having granite headstone fall on 1t,

is rapidly healing up.
The damage to the ". Fl. SCOTT house
on Spring street, which suffered by fire
Thursday morning, will doubtless be
equal to, if not in excess of the original
| estimates. The damage by fire was not
as heavy as the damage from water
The blaze was a stubborn one and large
quantities of water were required to sub
due it, Tho ceilings of the house were
handsomely fresooed and painted, and the
floors elaborately carpeted, but the water
and smoke has affected every room. The
plastering that has not already fallen is
barely hanging, so that it will be neces-
sary to repair every room before the
house is in as good condition as 1t was
before the fire. The rumor to the effect
that the fire originated from the explosion
of an oil or gasoline stove was unfounded,
as the Newman family in whose house
the fire originated do not have stove of
either kind. The origin OF the fire still
remain mystery.
Rev. B. L. Nelson will deliver the
baooalaureate sermon befofe the gnadu-
ating class, Deering High SCHOOL, ut All
