able to get reply to his correspondence

be assigned for the failure. They were
billed at Beloit for Saturday night, but

Mr.. E. V. Mum, insurance adjust
ers, was in town Saturday, called here to
investigate a peculiar fire loss that &C.
Cured at the home of Mr.. Serns in
Fulton while ago. A claim for dam
age to piano owned by the insured had
been made and as no other property was
reported damaged, the insurance compa-
ny were at loss to know how a fire
could occur that injured piano and not
destroy other furniture in the house.
Mr.. Mum said he found that the cover
OF the piano had by accident been set on
fire and wherever the flames had touched
the body of the piano the varnish was
ruined and veneer raised, damaging the
instrument so badly that it must be
sent to the factory. The loss therefore
amounted to quite a sum, though the
fire burned only the cover of the piano.
