EARLY MORNING BLAZE.
Heavy Loss In Property.

At 2:l5, on Monday morning, an
alarm from box ~ called the fire
department. to the Farmers En-
hange, a saloon owned by Mr.. Fran
els Guthrie, on st. Clair street.
The fire had evidently been burn
ing for some time, and a second
alarm was sent in.
After hard fight the fire boys
got the flames under control, but
not before the building in which it
originated had been thoroughly gut
ted.
The building next to it was oc-
cupied by Coleman q McKeever
as saloon and it was considerably
damaged.
On Broadway street the flames
had crossed the rear alleyway and
had entered the shoe and clothing
house of ROsenstein Bros, where
the upper stories were badly in
jured.
From thence it spread to the
Arcade saloon of Mr.. Dan L. Ken
nedy. The two upper floors were
damaged to considerable extent,
and the stock in the ground floor
was injured by the deluge of water
thrown by the firemen.
The fierce fire then proceeded to
lick up everything inflammable in
the rear of the white Crook, II
saloon, of Mr.. Press Thompson.
The firemen had been fighting the
fire from both front and rear, on
both streets, and finally succeeded
in stopping their deadly work at
this point.
Mr.. Charles Snow, who was sleep
ing in the third floor Of the Arcade
was not awakened until the heat
was so intense that his head and
hair were considerably scorched.
The Farmers Exchange building
was tile property of the Selbert
estate. The Coleman & McKeever
house was the property of Mr.. Dan
Meagher, Sr. The Rosenstein cloth
ing and shoe house was the prop
erty of the Jillson estate. The Ar
cade was the property of Mr.. P. H.
Newman, ST., and the White Crook
was owned by Mr.. Henry Ringold.
The total loss by the fire and
water, (the latter element doing
almost as much damage as the fire.,
was some $l5, 900 or $2O. 200.
But for the absence of wind and
for the good work of the depart
ment still heavier loss would have
occurred.

A correspondent of the Rochester
Republican who says he wants to pre-
sent real facts in regard to the last
game law, asks and answers questions
as follows:
1st. Does The law require farmer

Answer. Section 4 of the amended

and shall contain description of the
age, height, weight, complexion, color
of hair, color of eyes, with any dis
tinctiye mark of the holder thereof

Unless politics and political parties,

form of corruption. Conditions are
getting to be such in cities that the
issues on which national political par
ties are divided that administrative
reform will become national issue in
order to purify local politics. Indeed
it is as much a need Of the country
generally as was the tariff issue in the

that slack of home life is responsible
for most juvenile criminals, and that
education is the keynote of reforma-

garding the lack of home life is un-
doubtedly true, but that relative to
education needs qualifying. There is
nothing particularly reformatory in

must be education OF the hands, the

Big Returns From Onions.

The returns from the onion crop in
this county are about all in, and it is
safe to say that that the crop will
come near 450.00 bushels. nearly all
of which has been marketed. The
acreage has been put at 4S5 and it is
predicted that 1t will be more than
doubled in 1904. Scott Galloway, the
well known Noble township farmer,
predicts that onion raising will occupy
the time of many of the farmers in
his locality next year. He says that
the only successful way to raise onions
is to keep everlastlngly at 1t from the
time the seed is planted until the crop
is sold.-Ligonler Banner.

enters the race be will oe strong

chairman. He is a man of ability and
would bring harmony instead of dis

Some such Republican should be cho-
