HIGH SCHOOL BURNED
The Fine Structure at Sheldon De.
stroyed Monday.

Sheldon, Jan. 13.-The splendid
Sheldon high school building, one of the
finest in Iowa, was discovered on fire
at 10 O'Clock yesterday. Between soc
and 200 pupils and teachers were in the
building at the time.
BY splendid organization and man
agement on the part of the superinten-
dent and teachers, the pupils were
marched out without accident and with
no serious difficulty. AS soon as the
fire was discovered the teachers were
notified to march out their pupils,
which they did without panic. Most
of the pupils did not know there was a
fire, and supposed 1t was merely the
regular occasional fire drill
The fire is supposed to have started
in the furnace room, tho this is not
certain. How 1t could have originated
is mystery, as the room was supposed
to have been in the best condition.
The building was heated by the
Smead hot air system. For some rea-
son which will probably never be
known fire started in partition, where
1t got some Roadway before discovered
by Janitor Fred Deming. He at once

Coal Supply Short.

Special to Times-Republican.
Cedar Falls, Jan. 13.-Cedar Falls
after recovering from a temporary coal
famine is now up against the real
thing once more. Hard coal has for
sometime been unobtainable and soft
coal was substituted. This Is now ex-
hausted and the dealers will not take
orders for any more as they say they
can not get it. The Methodist revival
which was to have begun this week
has been Indefinitely postponed. The
small supply of coal on hand at the
church will be carefully guarded for
regular service dates. The public
school buildings will need coal in few
days and if not obtained may close.
The Normal school altho it has been
reported were out of fuel is supplied
for thirty days yet. Private families
in various parts Of the city are con-
sdering the plan of punching by neigh
borhoods and placing two or three fam
ilies in one house and combining the
fuel supply. 1t is not a question of
but of necessity and has
come to be a serious matter and no

turned in the alarm and notified the
teachers
1t was not supposed, at that time
that the DANGER was serious. The fire
was supposed TO be small and certain
of being controlled soon. The teachers
and pupils behaved themselves admir-
ably, many jof the children saving their
books and apparatus.
In two and q half hours from its dis
covery, p fire had completely des-
troyed TIE building. The walls are
partly standing, but worthless.
There Were nineteen teachers besides
Superintendent Farley in the building
and nearly 700 children. The kinder
garten and first primary were in the
high BASEMENT; the next floor was CIV
EN- over ito the grades, UP to the sixth;
and the second floor to the seventh and
eighth lgrades and high school. On the
third floor the rooms were not finished
off.
"The ppss is a severe one for Shell
don," said Ed c. Brown, railroad COM
missioner, president of the Sheldon
bank, a1pd one of the men who were ac-
tive in securing the erection of the
burned building. 81 don't believe the
structure ,could be replaced for 100000,
to say nothing of the apparatus, books,
etc. There is still an outstanding debt
of $4,000 ON account of the structure"

WERE NOTES RAISED?
travelling Stove Salesman Alleged t
Have Raised Several $40.

Special to Times publican.
Creston, Jan. 13.-Yesterday was the
last day for filing cases to be tried in
the January term of the district court,
and the docket contains thirty-three
cases. or somewhat less than usual for
this time of the year. OF these fourteen
are divorce cases, and but four crimi-
nal. The case that will attract the
greatest attention outside the criminal
cases is the one begun by the .Arispie
Bank against w. II. Reece to enforce
the payment of sos note. The note
was originally given by Mr.. Reece for
S45 to travelling salesman. and was
said to have been raised to $55. 1t is
eniy one of many similar notes that
were given last fall by the farmers of
the county to a stove salesman and
which is claimed, have all been raised
$40. The case against Bert Hoover. city
marshal of Alton, Is now up for trial.
1t is claimed he threw a drunken
man In the Alton Jail and
left him in there over night,
without any fire. while the thermometer
was below zero. and as consequence
the prisoners feet were frozen. and he
now asks damages in the sum of $4,000.

THE GRINNELL NEWS.

Special to Times-Republican.
Grinnell, Jan. 13.-The Masons had a
business meeting Saturday night, fol-
lowed by an oyster supper.
A special meeting of Iowa College
trustees will be held on Wednesday the
21st of this month.
E. b. Overshiner of the Swedish
American Telephone Company of Chi
cago, visited Sunday with F. NJ. Fer
guson.
One of our citizens has written an
article for the Herald entitled Shall
We Vote for the Franchise?' In it he
gives very fair view of the situation
as regards the Grinnell Electric and
Heating Company. He says that Mayor
Spaulding has announced himself as
opposed to the franchise and that he
will not vote for it, which will have a
great influence on the voters. He says
that the company by it's bad manage
ment, if such 1t was, stood loss of 1916
during the month of November by dis
counting the heating bills SO per cent:
that the writer was compelled to put up
a stove the expense OF which the COM
pany proposes to stand; also that they
placed the order for the new boiler in
plenty of time to have it get here by
cold weather; that thru their efforts we
now have soft water reservoir, which
we would never would have gotten
without the aid of Mr.. Benson and the
company's money; dat II the new
lights are not bright enough, then we
can put in more of them, and it will
cost no more, as the lighting is charged
for by meter; that the members of the
council are a little hot at the company
and so have it in for them. and will vote
against the franchise: that the COM
pany has put about 100000 into this
plant and so should have the support OF
the people to put 1t thru and see what
they can do This Is fair view of the
situation and great many of the mer-
chants and townspeople are now think
ing so, too. Carney & Hammond got
rid of the plant just in the nick of time
to avoid all this trouble.
The f. G.. As will hold their regular
meeting Tuesday evening. They will
have their installation of officers.
