the appropriations for Bethany home, the

mer president of Carthage College at
Carthage, H., died suddenly in the office
of Attorney John l.. Zimmerman, where
he had called on business. The physi-
clans called in ascriDe the death to con-
gestion at the base of the brain. 1t IS
charged that DR.. Ruthrauff's death IS
partly due to an insult from the senior
class. Others say that he worked him
self to death. The insult coming from
the senior class was its invitation to DR..
S. A. Ort to deliver the baccalaureate
address, duty which usually devolves
upon the president. The senior class i'll
the theological department gave out that
DR.. Ort would preside at the annual COM
mencement held Sunday night DR.. Ruth
rauff exerted his authority and took
charge of the exercises. The sentiment
against DR.. Ruthrauf was caused be-
cause he refused to permit the gradu-
ating classes to secure commencement
speakers, instead of writing essays for
the OCCASION DR.. Ruthrauff was 90 years
old.

FIRE AT NEW MILFORD, CONN.
Nearly Fifty Large Buildings Burned
Loss About 100000.

Between $500,000 and $6O0,000 IS the
latest estimate of the loss by the fire
which destroyed the business section of
New Milford, Conn. Nearly fifty build
ings, including most of the stores in the
place, two banks and three hotels, were
burned. The flames started about $3.50
o'clock in the stables of the New Mil
ford House. The cause is unknown. In
ten minutes the stables, the hotel and
several small outbuildings were in flames
and the railroad station opposite them
was in grave danger. The village fire de-
partment was unable to cope with the fire
and it spread to the Mygatt block, and
thence along Bank street, the principal
business thoroughfare of the village.
Twenty buildings were on fire at one
time. The people of the village feared
that the entire place would be burned,
and moved their household goods to the
large green in the center of the town
,Danbury was appealed to for assistance
and an engine was sent at 1880. The
fire spread to the postotice and the y. NJ.
G. A. building on Main street, both of
which were destroyed.
