The Larson Stair works, corner
Eighth and Harrison, was completely
destroyed by fire this morning at
o'clock, causing a loss of about $500.
Chief Piening was caught by a falling
wall and buried under n pile of debris,
from which he was rescued by the
fire detail from the police station.
The chief was not badly injured, but
had it not been for his prompt rescue
he probably would have been, as the
adjacent wall was lettering upon its
foundations when he was pulled out.
The fire originated in the rear of the
building and was beyond the control
of the department when it arrived.
The building was one of the oldest in
the city. 1t was originally Touring
mill and later was occupied by the

MOLINE MENTION

That the chautauqua of this year was
pleasing and the efforts of the as
ISOLATION were appreciated was evinc-
ed Wednesday evening in the attend
ance which greeted the Dunbar Hand
Bell Ringers, ELIAS Day and a. n.
Kellogg in the special and extra num-
Der given at chautauqua grounds.
As the number was an extra one, sea-
son tickets were not good for adj
mittanee, jet the tabernacle was as
well filled as for any previous enter
tainment given with the possible eX-
ception of the appearance of Curtis
and Bryan. The attendance in fact
has been such all through that the as
ISOLATION has enough over to start
an excellent program next year with
out fear of any deficit.

George Hummer's unlimited use of
T.. l.. Eastman's driving horse Wednes-
day resulted in the foundering of a
family pet for which Mr. Eastman
paid $3.50. Veterinary surgeons say
the animal will never recover from
the hard driving by the boy, and that
il will never be of use as a family
horse for driving. The boy was cap
tured by Officer Starofsky near Pros
pect park. When young Hummer saw
the bluecoat approaching, he whipped
up the horse and attempted tosescape.
but the officer was too quick for him.
And even after his capture and when
they were on their way to the police
station, the boy made break for
liberty and led the policeman a chase
several blocks in length before he was
brought up short in the new Carnegie
library building. Owing to the boys
extreme youthfulness, nothing was
done towards imposing the penalty of
the law on him, and he was released
after being given sharp talking to.
His mother promised TO take him
from the city at once.

Principal Clerk of the Senate.

Allen j. Maxwell, Chief Clerk of the
Senate, is one of the young men of the
State who, from early boyhood has been
making his own way in life. He is a
native of Duplin county and was raised
in Wayne county. On account of the
death of his father he left school as
soon as he was old enough to begin to
earn money, and at IS years of age be-
gan to publish the Columbus News at
Whiteville which, during the period OF
fusion government in the State, was II
bold and forceful champion of Democracy.
He was elected mayor of the town of
Whiteville at the age of %. In the
caucus of the Democratic members OF the
Senate of 1899, he was unanimously Sc
lected journal clerk of the Senate, which
position he filled so aeceptably that in
1901 he was the unanimous selection of
the Democratic caucus for Chief Clerk OF
the Senate.
He is probably the youngest man who
ever held this important position, being
only 2S years old at the time of his
hrst election. No higher testimonial OF
the entire satisfaction with which he
hlled the position could be given him than
the unanimous recollection, which he re
