Eight years later he exhib- ited pair of skates contrived to run on and also gave public exhibitions of his pro wess in skating over a smooth floor, playing A violin the while.

 The grocery department Is in the basement of the building and the fire men had considerable difficulty in find- ing- their way through the smoke which filled the room on the first floor to the stairway leading to that depart ment. Finally. however, they succeed ed in getting down to the fire and soon had stream of water playing on it. It seems that-t the Are originated in box of decorating paper, and it spread quite rapidly. A conservative estimate of the loss places 1t at between $500 and $1,000, which Is covered by insurance. The damage to the building Is slight.

The Albany Herald argues that when a farmer does not raise any corn or other foodstuff and his cot ton crop won't pay him out of debt. that's bad; but when he starts the same thing next year and goes deeper in debt-that's worse.
