success as rarely fall to musical COM

SERIOUS FIRE.

Mr.. Harry Martin, whose home is
south of town saved the town from a
most disastrous fire Wednesday
night the 4th. He and his little son
were returning home from prayer
meeting and were passing the Pump
Factory, when they noticed a bright
blaze climbing up the side of the boil
err room. They ran hastily to the
scene and were fortunate in finding
bucket and a tub half filled with
water neart the blaze. The flames
were under control in few minutes
and by that time the Waterman, who
was making his rounds in another
part of the grounds, had been notified
and had reached the scene. Fad Mr..
Martin been five minutes later the
flames would have been beyond con-
troll and thousands of dollars in prop
erty would have been destroyed. The
flames started from some cinders
thrown out of the boiler and had
reached height of six or seven feet
when discovered.

Alderman Forgey read letter from
the Students Club in which they sta
| ted that they had an option on a lot
| in the Athenaeum property as a site
| for the Carnegie library, and asked
| the opinion Of the Board on the loca-
ton. The opinion was that the loca-
: ton was as good as could be secured
| for the money. The ladies of the
Club further requested that the Board
appoint a Board of twelve Trustees
for the library, suggesting a list Of
six representative citizens, and that
the Board appoint three and the Stu
dents Club be allowed to name three
After some discussion it was the opin-
ion of the Board that in as much as
the City was to maintain the library,
the City should have a majority of the
trustees, and it was practically
decided that the city Board of Edu-
cation, nine in number should be
members of the Library Board The
matter was referred to the School
Committee and Recorder Erwin for
conference with the ladies of the

school for an indefinite period.
The Fire Committee was instruct
ID to inspect the opera house and
lave any changes necessary for the
protection of the public made. Alder

The Carnival.

The Smith Greater shows have
possession Of the town this week
Like all carnivals. there are many
good things and others S.not SO
good. The many tents where
walking canes and knives are
rung andthe yarioYss wheels OF
fortune are among the;iattersslass
But the ferris wheel, the merry
go-round, and some & the
strengthening maehincssare very
good, Thesrnerry-go-round seems
to be the most popular of all the
attractions. especially with fhc
darker element of our citizenship.
Iss me ferris wheel is small, ,ll4 bit tsifl= a.
NAL pefformance is very good Tn
this man enters the cage of
huge lion and there fights with
him. Gee! There is a good col
lection of animals under this tent.
Fora also is good. With the cleo
trio effects the whirling OF about a
thousand yards of dress is indeed
beautiful.
The greatest attraction of this
carnival is Hoop. the frog-bov. 1t
is a man. with normal head. but
limbs and BODY shaped very much
like a frog. This freak is worth
seeing. The high-divcr is another
winner. He dives backwards from
a height of 92 feet into a pool of
water. Will" the band plays mcr-
rilv. Nobody in Union has vet ap-
piled for this mans lob.
Taken all in all. this carnival is
a good one, havin" no dirty shows.
and it Won want to have a iOllv
time Just get red CAP. a walking
cane and a whistle: then get busy.
