creston Man Accuses Missing Men of
Gross Fraud.

Creston.- Allegatio charging the
grossest fraud are outlined in an act
ion started in the district court here
by John KEGS, until recently we'll
known druggist of this city. KEGS
asserts that in August b. H. Merri-
field and l.. N. Merrifield approached
him to trade an Arkansas farm valued
at $1,000, for his drug store and resi-
dence homestead, each of which he
valued at $500, the deal to be SUBJ
Ject to his approval of the farm The
Merritields conducted the drug store
while KEGS visited the land, and dur
ing his absence they sold the store
and furnished deeds to a third party
Allen f. Book. The farm had been
grossly misrepresented, and KEGS had
no intention of concluding the deal.
But upon his return he found himself
ousted and third party in posses
sion. His only recourse now is TO
have the courts set aside the trans.
action. The Merrifields have dis.
appeared.

Business District CT Prosperous Town
Almost Gone.


kellogg.-Fire, starting from burn.
Ing rubbish pile, inflicted a damage
of at least 100000 upon the town of
Kellogg and destroyed practically an
entire business block on the east side
OF Main street and one residence adj
joining. The buildings burned in
clude the frame hardware implement
and furniture establishment of Bob
Yin & Son, valued at $4,000 or more;
the Bobzin Bros. general merchandise
store and opera house, drug store,
the large two story veneered brick
bank building of the Burton & Co.
State bank, fine new residence of
Carl Bobzin, just completed, and the
Alex Fisher livery stable. The brick
block Withstood the flames for long
time, but finally succumbed, and is
probably a complete loss, as are the
office and plant of the Kellogg Tri-
bune on the second floor While the
volunteer department was struggling
brayely with its limited equipment
the water pressure began to fail and
in the very midst of the fight against
the fire the reservoir was completely
emptied. An alarm was sent to New
ton and Grinnell. From Newton came
many volunteers with ladders and
other equipment; from Grinnell came
the steamer, both on special trains
The Grinnel steamer alone saved the
entire business district from destruc
ton. Telephone communication was
entirely cut off early, both exchanges
being burned

Il was so weak from kidney trouble
that could hardly walk a hundred feet
Four bottles of Foiey's Kidney Remedy
cleared my complexion, cured my back
ache and the irregularities disappeared
and | can now attend to business every
day, and recommend Foley's Kidney
Remedy to all sufferers, as it cured me
after the doctors and other remedies had
failed
