Of this city.
No definite action was taken 10 the
matter of establishing a dormitory
10 connection with some of the state
educational institutions for the ben.
eft OF the descendants Of c~onfederares,
though the subject was discussed and
will probably be taken up when the
monument question has been finally
disposed Of.
On the report OF the Monument
Committee, of which Mrs. William
Aull, of this city, is president, and
Mrs. j. H Campbell, also Of this city,
is secretary, a lively discussion was
evoked by the suggestion made by one
OF the delegates that in a few years
the Confederate Home would be con-
verified into an asylum for the insane
or the feeble minded, and that when
this was done, the monument would
be left standing in a place where it
would not be desirable to have it.
Various answers were made to this
objection, and the convention voted
to erect 1t there.
Mrs. A. &. Asbury of Hlgginsville,
president Of the Missouri division,
presided at the meetings which were
held in the Central Presbyterian
church.
Marshall and Lexington asked the
privilege OF entertaining the conYen-
tlon at its next meeting. Lexington
was chosen as the next meeting place
by au almost unanimous vote.

A D%EsTRUCUIyE R
Brewery and Beer Depot Burned-E
Hoffman, g. Hearle and NJ. Engle-
hart Heavy Losers.

At O'Clock last Friday afternoon
the ice plant and the hay barn at the
brewery were found to be on fire.
The FIRE department was quickly sum.
moned and responded promptly, but
1t was evident from the start that
nothing could be done but to hold
back the flames and lessen the danger
to surrounding property. The hay,
whiskey, wooden partitions and coal
grouped around the starting place Of
the FIRE were all soon atlaze, and the
eEonts of the iremen seem to have
been directed to narrowing the limits
of the inevitable destruction.
The bottling works were saved and
the room next was destroyed only a
part, but the ice plant, engine room
and the west half Of the brewery are
a total loss.
Iue Deer depot was the scene of the
ficrcest flames. 1t contained a carload
of whiskey in the south basement
which caught fire early in the action.
There was a carload or more of beer
J 70 the north cellar which was not
burned. The fixtures in the front OF
this building on the first floor were
only partly burned.
The brewery, ice plant, bottllng
works and well represent an original
investment of about 800, 900. The
cash value was Of course somewhat
less than that. The insurance
amounted to only about $4,000. These
plants were the property Of E Hoff-
mas and M. E%nglehart.
The beer depot cost originally
about sl2 900, 1t contained wine,
whisky aud beer valued at about sI5..
Oeo, partly covered by insurance.
Charles Baird, wife and family
occupied the rooms over the beer
depot. Nothing was saved out of the
second story.
This Is perhaps the greatest de.
%stEuction of property Lexington has
suffered since the war. The losers
have tue sympathy of the community
The firemen worked faithfully until
late at night, aud their efforts were
well aud courageously directed.

HOnefnIness.

Sometimes when the sky is the grayest,
We catch the sweet odor of the flowers.
And often the joys that are the purest,
Are born of the saddest hued hours.
Sometimes as we long for a Lelhe,
Sweet memories gladden. the heart,
n hope sings a song Of rejoicing,
And gloom sits, a stranger apart.
sometimes let us sing through the shadow,
And rest In His peace and repose,
Let us JOY as the lark far upsoarlng.
Let us love as.the lilly and rose.

IN pointing out to the President
the lniquity of the interstate com

to assist in revising it 80 as 10 pre-

ground that capital should 10. be

the President is said to have re-
Piled that it was such men as he
who were manly responsible for
the spread of socialism and SO
brought the conversation To an
end. The President will enforce
the laws as they stand until they
are repealed or amended.
1t is not safe TO assume the truth
of all stories of this kind, but no
one can have much acquaintance
with rich men without learning
that fools are as plenty in that
class as in any other. The fact
that they accumulate and retain
wealth is evidence that they under
stand their particular business,
which is not inconsistant with IL
norance and foil y in other matters.
The really great men of finance
are, of course, wise as well as rich.

vested interests are far more
deeply concerned than any other
interests in restraining the excesses
OF capital, preventing it from OPP
