Speaking of the Belview fire the
the Independent says that the plant
could not be replaced at a cost of
less than S11 200 and the stock on
hand with tools, etc. represent loss
of fully $1,000 more, making the to-
tai $4,000. There was only $500
insurance on the mill and none on
the contents. which leaves a net loss
of $500 which falls wholly on
Messrs. Carols & Krause as the
insurance will only clear up the in
cumbrance on the mill and it leayes
Mr.. Carols practically without a dol
lar left as the savings of long years
had been put into this plant, and we
presume the same may be said of
Mr.. Krause.

STUDENTS ARE ENROLLING AND
EVERYTHING IS READY FOR
TERMS WORK.

The enrolment al the Normal school
to-day was every encouraging. Al
noon sixty students had registered.
Thursday is an unpropitious day for
enrolling students as many wait until
the following Monday. The prospect
for a large attendance Is very good
as many new students are coming In.
The morning hours were given up
to enrolling students, giving grades
10 the students of the past term and
adiusting conflicts in the schedule OF
statistics. This last was done very
nicely for all those who were present
Int those who are late viii suffer the
disadvantage OF finding the schedule
Axed and will have to take what they
can get. Students have been slow to
find out that school begins the day 1t
opens.
The regular classes in all the de-
nartments except the training school
started this afternoon. The training
school will not open until Monday. 1t
Is thought that many parents Will
avail themselves OF the opportunity OF
sending their children to the training
school on account of the reduced tut,
tion.
Prof. Rorbaugh is sick and is una
bIe to meet his classes to-day.
Prof. Mercer. who was sick the last

in Marion county from the Democrat

that this paper is usually very bitter
