to $1,000 and had $4,000 insurance in
the Westchester.
w. b. Reed lost everything but had
81, 900 insurance in the Home Insur-
ance company which will nearly cover
his loss.
r. B. Stevenson owned the double
building which burned and he had but

between the Hartford and the Hanover
companies. 1t will cost him S., 900 to
replace the buildings.
Ramsays loss was nominal. A
window of shoes was dampened and
water ran the side wall in one place,
somewhat injuring the goods close by.
But the damage is astonishingly
slight. G. S. Ritter, over this store
suffered about $50 by the wetting of
his law books.
The severest loss of the whole fire
was suffered by Chas. Rarick, the
photographer, who had rented the en-
tire upper floors of the Stevenson
building He had his gallery in one
part and his living rooms in another.
When he heard the fire alarm he
barely had time to get his wife and
little boy safely out of the building
and remove quilt or two in which
they were wrapped. He also saved a
trunk of clothes, but lost everything
else and carried no insurance.
The same block suffered a fire in
1891 when the flames broke out next the
A. W. Beck building and swept every
thing clean to Evans corner and then
south, consuming fourteen buildings.
The REGISTER Office at that time went
with the rest as it was located over
the drug store.
The loss is a severe one-fires al
ways make severe loss. But viewed
in every light the consoling thought
comes that it might so easily have
been far worse. In general way the
wise business men carried full fire in
surance and Mr.. Stevenson has al
ready announced that he will rebuild
at once. Bedell Bros. have the re-
fusal of the new building and lola

Speaking of Speaking.

A Washington dispatch to the
papers on Wednesday, January 5,
had this to say of the editor of the
REGISTER:
''In the close of the general debate
of the oleomargarine bill in the
House this afternoon, Congressman
Charles Scott ofKansas made strong
speech in support of the substitute
measure offered by the minority. In
this his maiden speech, Mr.. Scott
made one of the best arguments on
this question heard in Congress this
session.
He spoke for nearly an hour and at
the close of his efforts received the
compliments of hearty applause and
congratulations by many members. +"
And the all-wise Topics man of the
Kansas City Journal follows it up
Thursday with this opinion:
"The papers are all talking about
the maiden" speech just made by
Charley Scott in congress. AS mat.
ter Of fact, the maiden speech of Char
ey Scott was made nine years ago
asst June. 1t was in parlor at lola,
and he got up awkwardly from chair,
pulling a tidy and half the books
on the parlor table to the
tloor, after which he got down on one
knee before IA sofa which stood be-
teen the whatnot and the piano, and
asked Miss May Bevard Ewing if she
would have him. And the cordiallty
with which his peroration was received
on that occasion makes even the fat
tering reception which was accorded
his efforts in congress the other day
appear like frost"

twenty years or more. In an early
day he was engaged in the harness mad
saddlery business, but retired quite.a
number of years ago. He was very
large man and suffered from dropsy
and heart trouble, which was the cause
of his death. About three years ago
while down town he slipped and fell
heavily on an icy pavement on the
south side of the square and was bed
fast for nearly year. He suffered
greatly during the closing years of
his life and death came as a release to
him. Mr.. Cripler was seventy-six
years old at the time of his death and
was a just, good man, living a
Christian life more nearly than the
majority of men.
John r.. Crigler was born in Fay
ette county, Indiana, September 90
1926. He was married in 1s4S to
Martha Connor, who died in 1881. The

The county commissioners put in
the greater part of Friday forenoon
going over the sheep claims which had
been sent in by the trustees of the
various townships during the last
three months. The amount of claims
filed for sheep killed by dogs was the
largest known in the county for many
years. The aggregate for the quarter
was over s1,10O, which did not include
the witness fees.
Under the present law the township
trustees allow the claims and report
them to the commissioners. This

as it would save mileage. The gener-
al impression with regard to the oper-
alton of the law is that when dog
kills a sheep it's value is enhanced
considerably.
