was standing in front of the
Farmers bank and was de-
stroyed.
1t was only by hard work and
the free use of water that the
entire business part of our town
was prevented from burning.
The Chapman building on the
east was badly damaged and
Chapman Bros stock of boots
and shoes and harness slightly
damaged. Fully insured.
The Brown house on the north
caught fire several times and
was considerably damaged, but
was finally saved. No insur-
ance.
The Davis, Hunt and Hill
storerooms east of the Brown
house had very narrow escapes,
and sustained some damage.
Our people are to be COM
mended for their hard and faith
full work. But the lesson learned
is an impressive and costly one,
which would have been avoided
with a good system of water
works, for the fire. could have
been surley controlled when first
discovered had there existed the
proper means to fight it.
1t has not yet been decided
what will be done toward re-
building, but Keytesville people
are not the kind to be easily dis
mayed, and we hope ere long
to see some equally as nice or
nicer buildings erected to take
the places Of those burned, which
were built in 1882, at a cost
at a cost of about S15, 200, and Of
which every citizen of Keytes-
vile was proud. AS to how the
fire originated is q mystery.

Fire!

which the Farmers bank buil9-
ing and the two large brick
storerooms on the east were
wiped out of existence. The fire
| started under the floor of the
Farmers bank, and was first
discovered by Maurice Taylor
and Delbert Brewer, two young
men living southwest of this place,
who had come to town to attend
Rev. John M. Crowe's lecture
at the opera-housc. They had
mounted their horses and started
home about 1O:3O o'clock, when
the fumes of burning pine at
tracted their attention and they
turned back to make an investi-
gaticn and give the alarm.
1t was first thought the fire
was in the opera house, but it
was subsequently located in the
Farmers bank building, which
was then filled with smoke, but
the first seen of blaze was
when it broke through the floor,
near closet on the east side of
the room.
j. A. Collet forced open the
front door of the banking house,
and went back to his office in the
rear and succeeded in getting
out about half of his law library
and nearly all of O. P. Rays
library. Mr.. Ray had his law
Office in the same room with Mr..
Collet, who. after getting out all
|of the books he could, was
warned of the proximity of DAM
ger and started out of the office,
but was overcome by smoke and
fell to the floor. He would have
been cremated had he not been
rescued in the niche of time.
Messrs. Collet 6 Ray lost all of
their Office furniture and had no
insurance.
The msa la-rooR Of the bank
building was occupied by Martin
& Taylor as an insurance office
and the City library, and the
entire contents of this room were
burned. No insurance.
In theefront room of the bank
building upstairs Wallace &
Miller lost their office furniture
and law library, but we are not
advised whether orsnot they had
had any insurance.
The building in which the fire
started was owned by the Farm
ers' bank, and was well insured
The bank vault is all intact, but
will not be open until it cools off.
The bank opened for business
yesterday morning in the Hill
building, three doors west of the
COURIER office.
The middle room of the three
buildings burned was occupied
by Blair Miller with stock OF
dry goods, which was totally de-
stroyed. His loss ia between
Sc, 600 and Sc, 900 with but 81, 600
insurance. Mr.. Miller's books
were also consumed.
| The third room was vacant,
but Cunningham &; Cropper and
A. G.. Vandiver lost about thirty
barrels of apples that were
stored in the cellar. No insur-
ance.
The opera house and Justices
/ WI. Jared s and II. A. Wheeler s
offices and DIR. A. G.. Seiser's
dental office were above the two
buildings east OF the Farmers
bank. DIR. Seiser had S4OO in
surance, but estimates his loss at
81, 400. Justice Jared and
Wheeler lost their docket and Of
ficial papers.

Catholic Church Dedication.


Brunswick was dedicated last
Sunday by Rt. Rev. Bishop
Burke of st. Joseph assisted, by
six priests as follows: Rev.
Father Columbian, pastor, Revs.
Father Ignatius of Conception,
Mo-, Martin and Silas of Quincy,
Ills., Honorius of Chillicothe and
Walfrid of Wien.
The dedicatory ceremonies
were conducted in Latin, in
terspersed with splendid music
by the choir with orchestra ac-
compartment. There was not
bauble from beginning to end
and all who participated in the
in the services performed their
respective parts with much cred
it.
A very sweet-spirited, elo-
quent and impressive discourse
was delivered in English by Rt.
Rev. Bishop Burke in which he
paid a glowing tribute to the men,
bership of st. Boniface church for
the entsrprise and religious zeal
which stirred them to build such
handsome edifice in honor of
God. And while complimentary
to the Catholics, the speaker was
not unmindful of the valuable
assistance they had received
from nom Catholics in the erec-
ton of so elegant a house of
worship.
A sermon in German was
preached by Rev. Father Igna-
tius atathe conclusion of Bishop
Burke's pleasing and interest
ing remarks.
ST. Boniface church is by far
the most beautiful edifice in
Charlton county. The main
building is 37x60 ft with sane
tury 1920 #. 1t is constructed
of pressed brick and stone, and
on the interior the walls and
ceilings are artistically frescoed
and excite the highest admira-
ton of all who see them. The
church is built on the Gothic
plan Of architecture and the
Gothic idea is also carried out
in the work of the talented artist,
VIM. Kloer of st. Louis, who
painted the walls and ceilings.
The windows are of arts.glass
and are memorial windows as
follows:
The Sacred Heart, Wittmer,
Tschann and Holland families
ST. Francis, Ludwig and Theresa
Strub; St. Anthony, Frank
Hansman and family and Henry
Strub and family; st. Boni-
face, an oil painting on rear
wall of sanctuary, Mar
tin Strub; John Strub, Sr.,
and Agatha Strub; st. Mary's
Altar society, Chas. Meyer and
family; Peter and Johanna
Schmidt, VIM. Osterman, Mar
garet Straub, Margaret Susewind,

Victoria Strub, Catherine .Mey-
er, building committee, Ben
Strub, Sr., Tony Meyer, VIM.
Wittmer, B. M. Strub, Chas.
Koch, E. j.. Tschann and j. c..
Strub.
A confessional was donated by
Simon Bittaker, a green marble
holy water fount by Geo..Keiser,
and three fine sanctuary chairs
by John Reichert.
ST. Boniface church is. indeed,
an ornament to Brunswick and
can but swell the heart of every
citizen with just pride.
We most cordially congratu-
late our Catholic friends of st.
Boniface congregation upon
having carried their undertake
ing to such successful finale.
The commodious and attractive
edifce is an enduring monument
to their pluck and enterprise and

To the Patrons and Customers or the
Farmers Bank Of Charlton County:
Phone 26.

Our banking house, furni-
ture and fixtuers were totally
destroyed by fire on October %,
1902. And while the vault seems
to be intact, and the contents
thereof and of our burglar proof
safe therein are no doubt uninjur.-
ed, it is not deemed advisable to
open the VAULT until it has cooled.
We are now fully prepared to
conduct our business, as. usual, in
the building formerly occupied
by w. M. Willett between the
two barber shops.
The property burned is covered
by insurance in first class COM
panies, and we have no doubt the
loss will be adjusted at once, and
that to our entire satisfaction, so
the bank will be indemnified
from actual loss by fire.
Through the courtesy of the
Bank of Keytesville we will
have the use of part of its vauls
and safe until we can provide
permanent quarters and have a
new vault built.
We cordially invite our patrons
and friends to visit us at our tenn
porary place of business, and
assure them we will try to give
them the same courteous treat
ment as heretofore.

corn crop beseuse Of the fact that
much Of last years crop Of corn was
decnent in quality, therefore good
seed corn will undoubtedly be very
scarce this year. Testing seed corn
now may enable the farmers to
purchase good seed elsewhere If tho
seed corn they have proves to be
bad, or 30 deficient in growing
qualities that it will not produce a
good crop. Every grain should
sprout. if the seed cron was gathered
before the frost and has been prop
erly stored throughout the winter.
but if less than 80 out of each 100
grains sprout the farmers who plant
seed will have a poor stand Of corn {.
Every intelligent farmer knows how
to test seed corn, and knows that it
should be tested now if he is to make
certain that he will have good seed
three or four weeks hence. The
people of Iowa have lost more
money by bad seed corn than by all
other oalamities that have even at
fieted the state and it 10 possible,
not to say probably, that their losses
this year will be larger a proportion
Of last wears corn crop failed Now
is the time for the farmers to be-
come alarmed; three or four weeks
latter will be too late to secure seed
that will assure the great crop of
good corn Iowa should produce
this year.
