A Close Call.

jackson had narrow escape Wed.
nesday morning from sweeping con-
flagration. 1t was at time when
owing to the Improvements in pro-
gress at the head Of tho city water
system. there was scarcely any pres
sure for fire purposes. Only about
20 pounds was egistered on the Main
street, against 80 pounds when full
head is ON. Wednesday the black
smith firm OF Woodworth and Andrio-
sevich, near Broadway bridge, were
engaged IN tire setting, using an
outside furnace for this purpose. The
heat is intense, andIon this occasion
it was strong enough to ignite the
boards on the blacksmith shop, only
few feet away. 1t is a large frame
building with nest of other frame
structures near by. Fortunately Mrs
Harper noticed thejtre as soon as the
blaze started and gave the alarm.
The application of few buckets OF
water extinguished the flames. 1t
was indeed lucky that the fire was
seen just at the right moment. A
minute later it would have gained
Roadway beyond control.

Improving the Water System.

Mrs Richtmyer is making extensive
improvements IN the city water
system. The old square tanks, have
been taken out. They were badly de-
caVed and besides we're too small for
the service, being "a feet square by
seven feet deep. The new tanks are
round, "a feet in diameter, and ten
feet deep, which will give much
greater storage capacity. The work
has been under the supervision of
V. S. Garbarini. and is nearing com
pIetion. The two tanks are connect
ed, so that the water level is main
tanned the same IN each at all times.

Baseball.

AT Ieila park last Sunday jackson
defeated Angels in by far the best
played game of the season. Both
teams played clean fast ball, aud no
run was scored till the last of the
eighth inning when jackson by a
batting rally drove in two runs.
Angels came to bat in the ninth to
do or die, and with two men out
scored a run and with a man on third
their chances of tieing score looked
bright, Merkel was pitching ball,
however, and the hest Angels batter
could do was pop fly to third base
man, who gathered it in good style
ending the game. Merkel struck out
IL men, at one time striking out
three men in succession when the
bases were full.
Rogel, for Angels, also pitched a
fine game, holding Jackson's heavy
hitters safe when a hit meant runs.
The umpiring was very satisfactory
and there was an absence of wrangi-
ing in the game.
The crowd was we'll pleased aud a
return game between these teams will
be welcomed.

For Goddess of Liberty.

The voting contest to determ inc
the young lady who should represent
the goddess of liberty in the fourth
of July parade came to close last
Friday evening. Until few hours
from the closing time, there was no
interest taken in the contest. In the
last evening, however, the advocates
OF the rival contestants got a move
on. and voting tor while was very
spirited. There we're three candi-
dates voted for, namely, Miss Berthe
Lucot. Miss Annie Dalporta and
Miss Mamie Williams. Very few
around town were aware that a CON
test was on. Had the fact been
generally known there is no doubt a
muoh larger vote would have been
polled. AS it was a total of 1880
votes we're cast, the voting place be-
ing at Vela & Piccardo's store. Miss
Lucot was declared the winner with
1925 votes. Miss Dalporta received
$500 and Miss Williams 765. The
contest netted $3.50 for the cele-
bratiou fund.- the votes being one
cent each. Il he committee Will allow
S25 for the costume, so that the net
result is $50 in aid of the finances of
the celebration. 1t is the first time
in many years that voting contest
on such q proposition has been sue

ton of the county, passed away at
his home near Mount Echo on Mon
day morning last, after a brief illness
of four days. lie was around, and
apparently in good health consider

days before he died. Very few out

and the news that he had passed to
his rest came as a surprise on Mon
day morning.
Deceased was for many years en-
gagged In the lumber business several
miles above Pine Grove Mace's saw
mill was landmark of days gone by,
and did thriving business for a
number of years. Deceased with his
family lived in the vicinity of the
mill for many years. He also en-
gagged in mining and cattle raising.
A bout fifteen or twelve years ago he
moved to the vicinity Of Mount Echo,
where he has resided ever since. Be-
sides a widow. he leaves two sons,
namely, Hale and Fayette Mace and
one daughter, Mrs YerriDgton, all of
whom we're present at the final scene

Unquowa club on Monday Mrs. Mitchell said the problem of govern
 ment Is very great. The world is now so small nothing happens in one part
 without affecting another part. Ma tions must protect their citizens where ever they are. She thought we have our fingers in too many pies. She add ed that one of the most wonderful things in this age of the world is the number of bloodless revolutions which are taking place in different countries. Especially in this the case with Tur- key. She gave the women great credit for spreading literature which told of republics. freedom and constitutional government. and said they carried phamphlets all over the country. when the men did not care to do so. conceal ing the forbidden literature in their long sleeves. She was glad to see the strong part the women have taken in bringing about the present state of af- fairs in Turkey. She spoke at length of China. and said the name of the new little Emperor is Universal Promulga- tion. She took this to be a, good omen and thinks that many reforms will be promulgated during his reign. Tine new Regent is progressive and up- tc-date man. He has abolished the dis- functions between the Manchus and the Mings. or real Chinese. and the new Manchu emperor is destined to marry a Chinese maiden. She told an inter- esting story about the medical profess sion in China under the late empress to the effect that when the emperor was sick. some 30 of the best physi- clans in the realm were called in to diagnose the case. Three at a. time, were sent into separate rooms to make out their diagnosis. and if it was found that they disagreed in their conclu- sions. they were beaten with rods and

It is sometimes said that, newspa- pers being impersonal and their ex- pressions of opinion unsigned, no mans name becomes identified with them and that therefore the death of men editorially connected with them, leaves no gaps. To a certain extent, this is true. They go on and on, as the stream, and the reading public finds them the same. The newspaper has a definite policy and when death removes one of it's upholders, his successor as- from time-worn, age-stricken should CTS.
 The Farmer affords, perhaps, an il- lustration of these truths. In 1891, its managing editor, the late James L.. Gould, bereft of vision laid down his brlden; but a few years later, his as- sociate, the late Henry B. Stiles, de. parted this life; a year ago, MT.

It makes up a notable death record for one paper.
 And still the Farmer goes on, follow ing the same policy and maintaining the same inpersonal character, and so it will continue, even when in the course of tinneand nature others of it's personnel Ego hence.'

then it is simply on par with the Re- publicanism that forced Lilley upon a state and party who didn't want him and had it not been for Taft and his glorious Republicansm, that same con- cern would have been buried so deep that it would have taken them at least two years to dig out. We are not proud of the co-partnership that is running the Republican politics of the state.
