M. A. Gee, of this city, Erie signal

his newly remodeled motor car.
while making his initial trip ove-
his route, Monday The plug in the
gasoline tank on the machine be-
came loose and the gasoline caught
fire causirlg the car to be quito
badly burned. In order to save his
car Mr.. Gee showed it into the Sci
oto river and the flames we're ex-
tinguished before serious damage
was done.
For the past several weeks Mr..
Gee had been engaged at remodeline
his motor car, which Is one OF the
finest types of this machine along
the road, and Monday, having COM
pleted 1t, he made the first trip
The accident occurred west of thip
city and had 1t not occurred near
the river it is probable that the
machine would have been burned up.
Gee was not seriously burned in
his attempts to save his new car.

WILL MAKE NO
IMPROVEMENTS
City Hall will Go Without
Patching for a While
INSPECTOR IS FIRM
But Officials Think They
Dodge the Issue.
Fissures In the Walls are Said 10
be Closing Since There is no Hope
Of q New Structure.

The talk of improving the city
hall building has subsided and t
is probable that the old structure
will stand for another century
without the repairs which were re-.
Gently planned by the city officials.
State building inspector Cranstoh,
who recently condemned the struc-
ture, was in the city Tuesday and
he declared that the orders of the
inspecting department would have
to be obeyed. 1t is probable, how
ever, that the state inspecting de-
partment win not push the matter
as all liability which would result
from an accident would rest upon
the city since the scate has done
its duty In the matter.
The city is absolutely unable TO
do anything with the building at
the present time owing TO the finan-
cial condition. The cost of repair
ing the building was found to be
too great TO warrant anything being
done in that line.
1t is stated by occupants Of the
building that since the city decided
to lay the matter on the table for
some time, that the old structure
is settling back to It's normal condi-
ton The cracks are closing UP
and the walls on the south side
are sinking back, closing up on the
partitions The remarkable feature
is credited to an act of Providence,

The following article is clipped
from the Liberal News, is in relation
to a man we'll known here and who
recently opened an Office here.
Don't stumble over him again:
A. F. Rock, who attempted to cut
considerable moisture in Liberal and
other points along the Rock Island
road as a real estate dealer and a
money lender of farm loans, has
left the town and not a great many
people know where he went. He
evidently left some indebtedness
about town, judging from the num-
Der of eager seekers for his present
Whereabouts. Rock is one of those
fellows with fat pouch and a lean
pate, whose very ignorance would
give out the impression to many
people that if there was one virtue
about him it must be honesty, but
even in that he is rank failure
He is the Rock over which several
have stumbled, and his removal
from the country is after all a
blessing.
