Monday, July 22nd, was the 77th
anniversary of the birth of w. R.
Mead, editor of the PLAIN DEALER.
OF course so important an event re-
quired that we should be properly
equipped so, owing to the intense heat
of the day, had gone home early,
taken cold water bath, and in night
shirt and bare footed appeared on the
veranda for the evening. AT about
$50 Robt. Thomson dropped in and
talked the topics Of the day, for few
moments when squad of the friends
of the family came and without cere-
mony took possession, one of the
number kindly asking that we change
seats placing at our disposal an ele-
CANT rocker our measure precisely.
OF course the moments went so pleas
antly and so rapidly that we had no
time for shoes or stockings that eve
ming and why should we, we had
rugged ourself for comfort and no
little arrangement outside interfered.
Perhaps it was not pleasant for our
guests, but without us as the central
figure there would have been no show,
and we enjoyed every moment and
hope our friends did also. Thanks,
long life, good health, and happiness
to them one and all.

RiceviIIe Badly Scorched.

Saturday fire broke out in a meat
market adjoining the store of Weaver
& Vaughn, sweeping both sides of the
street. including the DR.. Fellows resi-
dence and wiping out Blandin' s black
smith shop, the state bank, the opera
house, Hotel Fellows and the two
buildings east on that side of the
street. All three of the hotels were
burned, the postoffice, the office of the
Recorder, and all the business houses
the south side of the street east of
of Weaver g. Vaughn'S and the north
and south street to the new bank
building which stopped its progress in
that direction, saving that and Geo.
d. Holdren's grocery and provision
store on the corner. 1t crossed the
street east, consuming the Richmond
drug store, one of the fneStstructures
in this county, burning both hard
ware stores located In that block, and
burning every thing to aid including
the Methodist church, the depot and
Templeton's lumber yard. Fifty-six
buildings went up in smoke and thous-
ands of dollars in merchandise, with
small insurance generally. The Alta
Vista fire company by heroic work
saved Smiths lumber yard with the
block of residences adjoining on the
south. Adam Johnstones livery was
wiped out with the rest. The losses
must aggregate fully 100000. To what
extent the property was insured we
have no means of knowing.

1t has been suggested that while it
continues so dry it would be good
plan for every household to keep on
hand in barrels and tubs as large a
supply of water as possible for i'm
mediate use in case of ire, as every
thing is so dry thata fire once started
would be almost impossible to control
even with our water works and fire
fighting appliances. The suggestion
is good one and the recent disaster
at Riceville should stir our people to
act upon it. A pail of water at the
commencement of a fire is better than
stand-pipe full when it is beyond
control.
