one of the work rooms in the rear of the
main store. The fire was around one of
the windows and had evidently been
burning for some time but had not
gained any great headway and was
easily extinguished. The origin of the
fire can be traced only to spontaneous
combustion in a box which contained
some oil soaked rags. The early dis
covery of the blaze was fortunate as
fire in that vicinity would be likely to
prove a serious one.

A Pleasant Reception.

delightful feature of the home COM
ing OF Senator and Mrs. Ross, was the re-
ceptlon which was rendered them bv the
members OF the South church at the
church parlors Monday evening. The
occasion was entirely informal and the
large number Of members of the congre-
CATION and others present indicated the
esteem in which the distinguished Senator
is held by those with whom he has for
many years been associated in church
work. After the exchange of greetings
light refreshments were served and
following this Rev. DR.. Fairbanks spoke
few words, concerning the long associ-
alton of Senator Ross with the South
church and in that body, welcomed Mrs.
Ross and himself home again. Dr. Fair
banks was followed by Harvlin Pad
dock, who spoke along the same line.
Marshall Montgomery spoke from the
standpoint of member of the bar. and
also OF Senator Ross connection with
the school. In responding, Mr.. Ross re-
ferred to his long and pleasant connection
with the church and spoke OF how deeply
he was touched by the thought that
his acts and endeavots were appreciated
by the people of his church. He referred
briefly to the great questions of the day,
and to the important part that Yer
monters, have taken and are taking in
the affairs of the country.
The whole affair was a simple but
hearty expression of the admiration and
good will OF church to distinguished
member.

We were staring before rs, straight Ia
front, trying to raise the town beyond
the skyline, and waiting always for
to see who'd catch it next.
Then We began to feel that tho
horses were playing out beneath us,
and with the breathing spells grow
ing longer and more often, the niggers
gained. The next man was shot dead,
aud we didn't have to shut our teeth
for him. But over and over again it
happened just the same; the soft
grunting, the swaying in the saddle,
that horrible choking thud as he
struck the ground, and the rest jab-
bing our horses like wild men to get
as far away from him as we could. We
had set out, you see, to carry the
papers through-we had to do it-and
by the time we lifted the town lights
over the horizon there were three of
us, riding abreast. Then the last
man dropped. Twas his lantern
that caught me in the face. Things
got funny after that. The colonel
said was talking silly when we got
in. Well, I scarcely think the COM
pany is paying me to stand round here
idling and spinning yarns like this.
I'll see you again sometime"
And the officer passed forward
along the deck to disappear in the
thick darkness that had settled down
over the ship.
