The residence Of A. c. ShOwalter
/ of Morris township, together with
most Of the contents, including about
Sl3O 10 money, was destroyed by fire
about S O'Clock Saturday morning.
How the fire originated is a mystery.
1t seems from what we can learn, it
first started in a rom in which there
had been no fire and when it was dis
cOTered it had gained such headway
that it was almost impossible to save
anything. The loss falls pretty heavy
on Mr.. ShOwalter as he had his house
nicely furnished and carried only a
small insurance.-Argonia Clipper.
&C. StaytOn, the outgoing county
surveyor, was presented with a pair
of gold trimmed eye glasses by the
court house boys Saturday. The

Mr.. StaytOn will be unable to be in
the city Monday, at the time the new
officers will assume their duties. The
presentation speech was made by
County Superintendent Massey, and
was replied to feelingly by Mr.. Stay
ton. During his term of office Mr..
Stayton has won for himself a warm
place in the hearts of each and every
one Of his associates, who regret that
he is no longer to be identified with
them in an official capacity.
