two thousand persons present, and
the only reason that there We're not
more was that they could not be pack

Torrance lasting til 1880 was nee
essary to give all who desired to see
the pictures an opportunity to attend
The pictures were just what had
been promised, faithful portrayal OF
the greatest wild west exhibition IN
the world. Many people who saw the
picture yesterday have seen the show
itself and all were loud in their praise
OF the pictures. There are hundreds
OF people who have no idea of what
life in what is now known as the
Middle West, was in the late COS and
early '7Os and to these people ths
wild west exhibitions, with their In
dian battles, cowboys and plainsmen
are an education This is the last
opportunity many will ever have oi
seeing this show. Buffao Bill has
made his farewell tour and it will be
many years, probably, before these
pictures are shown here again. There
will be shows today at 2:3O, $3.50
( 1880 and $50 p m. This is positive

A Strenuous Sunday.

Last Sunday was a day of calam-
ity IN Madison and excitement was
at high pitch because OF unusual
happenings. Early in the morning,
about seven O'Clock, the first calam-
ity was heralded when the fire alarm
rang out. Most people were out OF
bed but many had turned over for
the usual extra Sunday morning
nap. Volumes OF smoke we're seen
ascending from "across the lake"
and it soon became known that the
cozy and comfortable cottage home
OF Robert Davis, the well known
jeweler, was being consumed.by the
fiery element. Because Of the fact
that the house was located beyond
the fire limits nothing could be done
10 allaY the flames which bad gained
a good headway before discovered. +.
The fire burned SO rapidly that the
family did not succeed in saving any
Of the household goods. The fire
seems to have originated in the
kitchen where the cook had built a
fire in the stove TO prepare the morn
ing meal. The loss was complete
and falls heavily upon Mr.. Davis
and his family who have the sym
pathy of our people. in their trouble.
Some insurance was carried both on
the building and the household
goods, but not enough to cover the
loss.
The second calamity of the day came
at the hour of church service. The
ministers had just about commenced
their discourses when again the fire
alarm was given and TIE churches
were quickly emptied of their con-
gregations. The FIRE was soon found
to be in the store Of f. c. lIassell
e. Son, located in the very heart of
the business center, and a fear shot
thu ough every heart that here 10 .
deed was something which would
prove serious. The hose reels we're
gotten out and the pipes attached to
the hydrsnts in record time, and
then began fight against an unruly
and treacherous element with odds
in its favor. For long time it looked
like the flames were TO get the bet
ter Of the argument and tenants OF
other adjacent stores and offices be-
gan to move out. Soon the street
was 6lle1 with desks, tables, chairs
typewriters, law books, insurance
blanks, jewelry, etc. carried from
their various places by willing
hands. But the fire laddies did tbei
work well, the flames raging in th'
Hsssell store we're subdued and th,
great crowd of people heaved
sigh of relief aud telt thankful tina
such was the case. II is not know
