FIRE AT THE LENNON PLANT.
Section Of the Coke and Iron Sheds
Qastroyad

Destroyed.
Fire shortly after o'clock Friday
evening destroyed the south end Of the
coke and iron sheds at the plant OF the
Lennox Machine Company. The fire de-
partment prevented the spread Of the
flames to any other of the numerous
buildings and the loss to the company
will not exceed 800. The sheds are To-
Gated just east OF the new foundry
building Of the company, south of Linn
street, and east of Eighth avnue. and
run parallel with that building. In the
various compartments OF the sheds
were stored kindling wood and rubbish,
coke and scrap and pig iron. The fire
started in the south end, among the
kindling and rubbish. Some excited in
dividual turned in second alarm,
which caused report to be circulated
up town that the company had suf-
fered heavy loss. The fire. however.
was confined to the south end of the
sheds and the only damage was to the
building and the kindling wood. All the
companies were soon on the scene. but
only two streams were required and the
other companies We're sent home as
soon as it became apparent that there
was no need of their services.

the Bible convicts men of sin, bur men
say: God will not punish us forever
for our sins" The fact of the case is
sin is it's own punishment. Sin de-

Of Mrs. White. S43 Third avenue.
Cycle tables profusely decorated with
American beauty roses, and smiiax
woven into heart shapes and illumln
ated by candles wearing caps" of pink

seven courses was opened by serving

Mrs. Pinney by boiling five pound beef

cents worth with one small onion for six
hours taking care to keep ingredients
well covered in water we'll sailed which

fourth course and gave out the flavor Of
lemon, orange and pineapple. with the
candied cherries. Then
followed the salad so deftly and artist-
oally constructed as to keep one guess

serves or when her hostess informed her
she was eating tomato jelly salad made
by using gelatine. Over all all the ever
pleasing Mayonaise was poured and
cheese sandwiches and olives completed
this course.
The sixth course was sailed almonds,
ice cream moulded as pink roses, and
the traditional bridal cake shaped as

SEEKING NAN
Former Soldiers Home Member
Has $4,000 Coming to Him
From Prussia.
Dedrick NJ. Miller the Fortunate
Man. But His Present Where.
abouts Unknown.
Fortune Is Left by a Brother,
Who Recently Died in
Prussia.

Commandant c. c. Horton. of the
Soldiers Home is in receipt of a letter
from Prussia, asking for information
concerning the whereabouts of a former
member of the Home, DIETRICH NJ. Mil
Ter, who, the letter states, has fallen
heir to fortune of $4,000 by the death
Of his brother.
The letter, which was received yester-
day, is from Frederick Rosebrock, of
Beberstrasse 272S, Osnabruck, Prussia.
and states-that Miller's only brother
has just died and that to his fortune the
brother in this country is the only di-
rect heir.
DIETRICH NJ. Miller was a veteran of
Company M, Second United States cav
airy, and came to the Soldiers Home in
1898 from st. Mays Mills county. He
remained az a member for five years
taking a discharge in 1898. His present
whereabouts are unknown, and no one
in the Home has since learned from
him, neither do any of his old friends
know whether or not he is alive. In
fact he is not distinctly remembered,
excepting by few. and about all that
they remember about him is that he
was a cripple and walked by the use of
two artificial limbs.
The record in the Home headquarters
building shows Miller now to be man
81 years of age. He was never married
and the records show no names of rela-
tives
Commandant Horton will do all in his
power, thru correspondence and making
the fact of Miiier's fortune public, TO
locate him. He is in hopes of doing 30
and thus placing the old man in posi-
ton to receive the money that is await
ing his pleasure and that will keep him
in comfort during the remainder of his
days.

Meetinos at the BAPTIST Church.

The meeting last night at the Bap-
fist church was well attended. The
house was full. and chairs had to be
brought in. After the song service the
evangelist said that he was going to
preach about the different excuses that
men give for not accepting Christ. and
he asked some OF the Christians to state
what excuse it was that kept them
from accepting Christ before they did.
After several had spoken and Mr..
Weeden had sung beautiful solo, Mr..
Sucker took for his text Luke l4:1S.-
