BAD FIRE AT HIGsON's FACTORY.

The fire at the hat factory of David Higson & Co.,, Monday at 5,30 p. m., came near being a serious contiagra- tion. The fire was caused by the ex- plosion of the alcohol recoverer, which was located on the second story of the factory, in room near the middle of the factory. The cause of the explo- sion is not known. There was sud den report and in an instant flames were shooting from the receptacle in which the hats are placed to recover the alcohol. The loss was slight. The foreman of the sizing department, James Connors, had a narrow escape from serious Injury. He went back after his books and on trying to get out was caught by the flames, making it impossible for him to escape by the usualu exits. He was finally able to tear the wire netting from a window at the north end of the factory near the brook, where ladder was raised by which he reached the ground. His hands were somewhat torn and bruiS- ed.-[NewS.

ORDINATION IN WASHINGTON


 The Congregational church in Wash ington has real, genuine, warm, whole hearted Christian fellowship. And this was shown beautifully on Tuesday, the 18th inst. The occasion was this: under the care of the Litchtield South consociatiOn, desired ordination to the Gospel ministry. At the very kind suggestion of Pastor Carter, the church called council for the purpose and very kindly and with more than abun- dant hospitality, for which they have been long famed, opened and warmed their house of worship. The council met at II a. m. The examination of the candidate was just opening rich mine of broad, deep and real Christian scholarship. For MT Duck, after a college;course and year at Upson.semf- nary as an excellent teacher, took three years at Union Theological seminary graduating at the head of his class, and then, on scholarship, took two full years at Berlin. With naturally strong, broad, orderly mind, he has stored up marvellous amount of sane, sound Christian learning. Having re. ceived call as acting pastor elsewhere he sought from an intelligent prefer ence ordination in the Congregat tiona] body, although raised a Lutheran The examination and spirit of the mar and scholar were gladly and unani mously approved. The public servlce took place in the afternoon. Rev Henry Upson preached the sermon and Rev A. H. Post offered the ordain ing prayer. The other parts were bN Rev Messrs F. w. Fletcher and R. B Carter. It was an interesting anC pleasant service, an occasion fo which the Washington church should be bethanked.-[Congregationalist.

THE LATE HARRY ATWOOD,

Harry Atwood, formerly of New Haven, died at his rooms cn Washing ton Greene at the Galpin Place, on Tuesday morning, January 12, at 7.35 o'clock. Although he had been ill for over fortnight, at one time recovery seemed certain, but the last of the week a change came for the worse and death resulted from a complication of diseases. The deceased was born in 1882, was educated at Storrs' Agricul- tural college and was nephew of Mrs Elnathan Mitchell. In 1902, he mar ried Miss Ruth Tenn, youngest daugh- ter of c. G. Fenn. A son, Russell Burdett, was born to them, last Feb ruary. The late MT Atwood was a man of admirable haracter, respected by all who knew him, and the deepest sympathy is extended to the young wife and mother. The funeral was held from the Congregational church, on Thursday of last week.

SAME AT EVERY TOWN.

The following paragraph appeared In
a Bryant special to the Sioux Fails
argus Louder:
Eleven car loads Of stock, household
goods and farming utensils have arr
rived here this week, belonging to
families mostly from Iowa, who are
settling in Clark county, a few miles
west OF here. Several OF the families
arrived on the evening passenger tain
last night.
If every town in the state had a
special correspondent to the Sioux
Fails and Sioux City daiiies and items
OF thesforegoing nature were all sent,
they would combined, make the Pierre
space writer look like thirty cents.
Rnt fnrtnnataly-or unfortunatelg-
just as you may care to take it--tne
Pierre fellow has clear sweep and 60
the impression gets out that nobody ls
coming into the state or locating in
any part OF il except west Of Pierre,
The truth of it il, the constant and
steady settlement sgf the forty odd
counties east of the Missouri is going
on all the time--one> here, another
there; not infrequentis dozen In q
week at one town. But NOBODY thinks
anything about it-Certainly not
enough to send specials all over Gods
creation. It Is this steady pull and
constant addition TO the states popn-
lation east of the Missouri that has
held the center OF population from
moving west mile in the past fifteen
years. -- KimbaIl Graphic.
