alarm promptly but it being several

there was no saving the building and
it's contents from destruction. We
understand from Mr.. Owen that the
property was but partially insured,
that on the building being only $500
and but little on the machinery and
fixtures. The total loss is $4,000 in
Guiding some 5000 of butter in tubs.
When discovered the fire had progress
sed so far that nothing could be done
toward saving any of the fixtures or
butter stored there. The boiler was
put in but recently and the fixtures
including separators were nearly new
and of the best patterns. We presume
1t will be rebuilt for with the large
dairying interests of the vicinity the
farmers cannot dispense with it, even
if Mr.. Owen can. At considerable in
convenience the milk from portions of
the territory covered by his cream
routes can be taken to his creamery at
Lourdes and to the Maple Leaf and

Golden Wedding.

The celebration of the tiftieth ami
versary of the marriage of Mr.. and
Mrs, @. S. Gill at their home east of
town on Wednesday last was the oc-
casion of the pleasantest possible
social gathering. Their eight children
were all present including two daugh-
ters from distance and about thirty
old friends took possession of the
premises and passed the afternoon in
conversation, song and discussing the
merits ofa bountiful dinner.
Mr.. Gill was most thoroughly and
properly eaned; a handsome gold
headed ebony stick being used in this
part of the proceedings. Everyone
said it served him right and he didn't
seem to resent it little bit.
The guests dispersed to their homes
at the close of the day leaving behind
them numerous handsome gifts as
tokens of the love and esteem in
which their friends and neighbors
hold this pleasant old gentleman and
his lovely wife.
May they live to enjoy many happy
returns of this best and most sacred
of dayS. m

The threat that the League will SO
educate the people that 'such papers
as the PLAIN DEALER shall be denied
transmission through the mails and
its editor driven into obscurity or a
lunatic ASYLUM" is the bluster and
bravado of fool or knave. The
Constitution of the United States
guarantees freedom of speech and of
the press and the man who would
abridge either is disloyal to it's princl-
pies. Mere liberation is not the oppo-
site of moderation, but. the counter
felt of it. Both are despotisms, and
unworthy the approval of any good
and law-abiding citizen. The one
assumes the right of withholding
liberty Of speech and of conscience,
the other is mulct law granting in
dulgences. The one is the League

ed with mercenary and hireling de-
tectlyes. spies and informers, the

all communities to whom condition
such as the League has created is
mine of wealth. Characters like these
naturally breed in the putrification of
the distempered times they have
created, and after fattening on the
disease, they perish with it or impreg-
mated with its stencil retreat into the

Only a Little Out Of the Wav.

MY DEAR Boys AND GIRLs:--I want
TO tell you story which l have read
with the above heading which hope
you will remember and apply the
moral to yourselves whenever tempted
to do wrong.
A gentleman crossing the English
channel stood near the helm s-man.
1t was calm, pleasant evening, and
no one dreamed of any danger to their
good ship; but sudden tapping of
sail, as the wind shifted, caught the
ear of the officer on watch, and he
sprang at once to the wheel, examin-
ing closely the compass. "You are
half point off the course" he said
sharply to the man at tle wheel. The
deviation was corrected, and the
officer returned to his post. "You
must steer very accurately, said the
locker on, when only half point is SO
much thought Of" "Ah. half point
IN many places might bring us directly
on the rocks, said the man at the
Wheel" So, my boys and girls, it is
in life.
Half point from strict truthfulness
STANDS us upon the rocks. of falSehood.
Half point from perfect honesty.
and you are steering right for the rock
Eef crime. And SO of all kinds of vices
The beginnings are always small. In
my early boyhood 1 read of boy
whose first crime was only half point
Off; he took pin that did not belong
to him, small beginning in crime, he
hnally took horse that belonged to-
Ianother man, and served term in a
state prison for it.
DO not get one half pointaway from
truthfulness, and strict honesty. Keep
clear of small sins, and as rule there
will be no danger of your man or
womanhood, being driven on the rocks,
and your characters lie in ruins. Now
as we are beginning a new year, prom.
Use yourselves that no evil thought, or
bad deeds, shall get you half point
out of the way of right doing. Re-
member that when you have grown to
man and womanhood, the cOmmunity
in which you live will expect, and win
have the right to- expect, and demand
that you be honorable men and women.
And this is just what you, yourselves
purpose, now, to be, and what you win
be If you do not get half point off
the path of recitude.
You will now soon be at your books
again. Allow me to say, do not esteem
yourselves too highly. A very wise
man has truthfully said, ''pride goeth
befuW a fall" Be determined to
master every study, think we'll OF and
obey your teachers, this is your right
and your duty. To honoryo teachers
and to be masters of your studies is
about all the rights boy or girl has
while In school.
You arc crossing the channel of lue
in which you are forming and build-
ing character, do not get half a point
Oft, but land on graduation day safely,
with a cultured mind, fully educated
and prepared for an honorable and
useful life. Always hold yourselves
ready to do right on all occasions and
under all circumstances. And now,
my dear boys and girls, wish you
happiness and prosperity during the
year on which you have just.entered.
May 1t be to you all the most success
full year of your lives, and may each
succeeding year bring to you increased
prosperity.

HOBSON BACK FROM ORIENT.
He Says Spanfards Sank Their Own
Ships in Manila Bay.


Ships in Manila Bay.
A special dispatch to the Baltimore Sun
from Vancouver, B. c., yesterday says:
Lieut. Richmond Pearson Hobson. U. s. NJ,
who has returned from the orient, makes
statements which seem to destroy the gilt
tering and melodramatic picture OF Dewey
sinking under broadside fire the hapless
Spanish fleet, which went down before him
in the battle of Manila bay.
Hobson, it will be remembered, raised the
sunken warships, sent them on a long wa
ter Journey to Hong Kong, where they could
be properly repaired, and then delivered
them in serviceable shape to his own gov
eminent. He therefore should know
whereof he speaks when he says that 1t
was not Dewey but officers of Spain who
sent their ships to the bottom, because
they could not contend with the more mod
ern fighting craft flying the stars and
stripes and were determined that the ships
should not be toWed as prizes under the re-
publican flag.
Lieutenant Hobson, when asked as to the
condition of the hulIs of the Isla de Cuba,
the ISla de LuZon and the rest of the Span
ish fleet when he arrived at Hong Kong to
superintendent repairing operation. said:
THE damage to the hulls was mainly the
result of six months submersion. The up
per works had been badly damaged by fire,
the woodwork was DESTROYED and the iron
work badly twisted by the heat
He was then asked his opinion as to the
direct cause of the laundering of the YES
sells in Manila bay. Lieut.. Hobson replied:
The Spaniards pulled out the plugs and
damage. The ships were injured little be-
low the water line. We had practically
done them no damage there at ALL
Lieutenant Hobson will report first to the
commander of the navy yard al Brooklyn
and will then ask leave to visit his home in
Alabama.
