threaten the nearby buildings. Today an
alarm was turned in which sent the boys
to the Gore farm just north Of the city

near the buildings. These two alarms
should DO quite sufficient to warn everyone

An exchange aptly says: Talk about
hard times when we let our timber rot
and buy fencing We throw away our
ashes and grease and buy soap. We
raise dogs and buy hogs. We raise weeds
and buy vegetables. We catch five cent
fish with four dollar rods. We build school
houses and send our children off TO be ed
ucated, and lastly we send our boys out
with $40 gun and $40 dog to hunt ten
cent birds. -
