Pacific depot. at Hoisington, and in a
few minutes the entire depot building
was a mass of flames. Some of the
contents were got out, including the
books, records, tickets etc., and part
Of the express. The Ere is supposed
to have started by spark from a
switch engine lighting on the roof.
Fortunately for the town the wind was
in direction that carried the burning
brands over in the direction of the
ruins of the Typer House. and no
other buildings were ignited.

cLAFLIN COMMENTS.

About forty-eight cents is the top
notch for now wheat, on this market.
Considering the quality this seems to
be rather low figure.
William Dymond who nearly two
years ago enlisted and went with
Uncle Sans boys to the Philippines,
returned last week and is paying his
old friends . visit.
The school directors have hired
their teachers for the coming fall
and winter term. A: e. Wegley
was employed az principal and Miss
Putnam as teacher in the intermediate
grades.
A light-fngered thief whose name
We could not learn, pulled bill book
from the pocket of harvester Sun
day evening, but be hasn't done any
thing since. He drew a prize of a
pair of black-eyes and laundering
good humping.
During the high wind Tuesday,
George Feist met with quite heavy
loss by having his machine destroyed
by fire.. He was threshing for Mr..
Bohun southeast of town, who also
sustained quite q beavey loss in
wheat that was destroyed before the
FIRE was extinguished.
We understand there ia now a
movement on foot to employ night
watch for the next few weeks. Some
sort of robbery lie committed almost
every night, and it would seem that
something would have to be done to
catch these sneak thieves.
