the family reused from their sleep. The
fire had gotten such a Roadway, how
ever, that before the firemen could ar
rive the entire rear portion of the house
had been eaten away. Their prompt &C.
ton saved the remaining portion of the
house and the fire. which probably
started from an overheated chimney
caused a loss of about $3.50, all Of
which is covered by insurance.
Two barns, belonging to foreigners

| to the ground about Z o'clock las
evening. from fires started from pass

REVIVAL SERVICES

The revival services in the big
tabernacle are proving very sue
cessful and Rev. Ilowrey and his
assistant singers are getting a grip
upon Watertown people that is
bound to bring good.
The weather has interfered to
some extent with the meetings,
having a tendency to lessen the.
crowds present. The building how
ever is warm and comfortable even
in the coolest and storrniest wealth,
|er. The attendance last Sunday
evening was record breaker, and
the fine sermon was listened to
with keen attention.
Rev. Lowrey in his sermons does
not spare the church or its menu
bers, and criticises and holds up to
|ridicnle many of its methods.
Church fairs, 1I5c suppers and the
various other we'll known means Of
raising money for church purposes
received attention at the evange-
lists hands, and came forth from
/ the handling in sorry plight. Rev.
Lowrey says he believes in the ap-
|plication of Christian and common
sense principles to church work.
The sermons are of q very practical
character, the preacher is b hard
hitter, handling his topics in d
straight forward and helpful lnan-
ner.
