Parkers Prairie experienced a bad
fire on last Friday morning, when
Johnson Bros. & Saunders big gener.
al store was destroyed by the fiery ele-
ment. At about l o'clock q. M, the
interior of the store was found in a
mass of flames, and it was with great
difficulty that Alex. Johnson, who was
sleeping up stairs escaped. The wind
was blowing stiff gale and it was at
once seen that nothing could be done
to save the store. The hotel caught
fire several times, but it was saved
through hard work. The fire was the
worst Parkers Prairie has had. The
origin OF the fire is mystery, but II
is possible that mice and matches are
responsible. The loss to Johnson
Bros & Saunders Is very heavy, aggre-
eating $4,000. Undaunted by their
misfortune, Johnson Bros. & Saunders
have already set to work tearing away
the debris and will soon have q new
building in which to continue their
business. Citizen. !.

INDEPENDENCE HALL.

Richard McWillianls, a shoemaker
md a poor man by his OWL rating, has
presented a rare picture to b collec-
ton in independence hall. 1t is one
of the four known copies Of the krim-
mel engraving of Independence hail in
1916, perhaps the rarest engraving of
that building.
The very existence Of the engraving
was unknown to the commission which
recently restored Independence hall IN
til a small outline of it was discovered
in an old almanac. The Importance of
b picture to the architects planning
the restoration was realized, and a
widespread, thorough search among
collectors revealed only three copies.
One copy was borrowed, and to it Ar
chitect Stacy Reeves was indebted for
many details of the old statehouse
which could have been learned from no
other source.
The other day a plainly dressed man
of so walked int the office of Superin-
tendent S. S. Reeves and surprised him
by presenting a richly framed copy of
the much longed for engraving. The
donor was Richard McWilliams of 1G1S
South Seventh street.
I'm a shoemaker" said he, "and I
got this 20 years ago in payment for a
pair of boots. I didn't attach much i'm
portance to it, though, and for nearly
20 years it lay rolled up. 1 read in the
papers that after much search a copy
Of the lost Krimmel had been found

tects. 1 had several offers, but I decid-

Popularity of Washington.

Not counting the national capital
there are A towns and cities bearing
the name of Washington. No doubt
more communities would have thus
honored the memory Of the father Of
his country but for the prohibition of
the postofice department of more than
one p~ostoffice OF the same name in a
state. There is in nearly every state a
county called Washington. But the

come to light in tae pension bureau.

Indians wouldn't Use a Bed.

Thomas O. McGiu, who a few weeks
ago returned from a sojourn at Butte,
Mon, speaking of the Indians of
northern Montana, said: ga party of
five came down to Butte on a revenue
lawsuit while l vas there, and they
certainly were about the finest Indians
I ever saw. Not one of them was less
than 6 feet 2 inches in height and well
built. They had on their paint and
feathers and cut a great swell, or at
least thought they did. They staid at
of the leading hotels, and the first
morning after their arrival there was
considerable amusement among the
other guests on the discovery that the
redskins, true to their instinct, had
scorned the comfortable beds Of the
hotel and had climbed out on the roof
of one of the hotel buildings, where
they slept with just their blankets
over them. They couldn't get those
bucks to sleep in a bed. Every night,
no matter how cold, they climbed out
on the roof and went to. Sleep"
