MALICIOUS PERSON
STARTS FIRE WHICH

before any serious damage resulted.
While this work was being done
the fire fighters were busy with the
bucket brigade carrying water from
a ditch near by and passing it along
the line. In surprisingly short
time the flames were under control
1t Is not possible. to estimate the
damage yet. but those who haye
looked over the runs estimate that
it is approximately SO per cent.
The principal damage to the
machinery is owing to the fact that
1t was torn from the building IN
summary manner and will have TO be
re-flted and re-lnstalled.
In trying TO solve the mystery Of
the origin of the fire number of
theories hive been advanced. The
flames started on the north side of
the coal shed. 1t is held by some
that i. was due to spontaneous COM
bustion of the coal which was piled
up there. This theory might carry
some weight exc pit for the evidence
that the flames started outside of
the wall and not inside. While the
first people to arrive on the scene
admit the fire may have started from
any of number of causes they are
sure it did not start from the boiler
or rom any point inside Of tie
building. People IN looking over
the ru ms after the fire report that a
charred pile of kindlings was found
where the fire originated, indicating
that the flames bal spread up the
walls befo:e completely turning up
the kindlings.
The damage to the plant will
cause it to be closed only SO long as
it takes TO have the insurance com
pany adjust the Losses, and rebuild
the establishment. Since the plant
has been leased to the firm of
Levcrich d Burrell it has gone
ahead rapidly and the managers
feel that they have demonstrated
IN the short tine they have run,
that a creamery Is a success in this
community. They say that they
will have everything ready to
receive cream again in a very short
time and are no less on the alert
for business now than before the
tire. The checks sent out last
month for cream totaled 80 per
cent larger than the previous month,
showing the rapid growth the
busln ess is making.

plains. she was for nearly ten years an
invalid, compelled to travel flat OF her
back and made frequent Journeys in
search OF health to many parts OF the
country, riding always on acct which
had to- be lifted into the baggage

her during this period that when Miss
Smith recovered her strength she de-
ttermined to devote her evangelistic
tours to centres of railroad men. She

for Christian conservation.
