NUMBER SO
IRE:
Badly Damaged the Will
son House Last Fri
day Morning.

About one o'clock last Friday
morning the citizens of Ceredo were
aroused from their peaceful slum-
bers by the cry of fire. Those
who responded TO the alarm were
attracted to the Wilson House, the
upper portion of which was
! blaze.
Smoke issuing about the rooms
awakened some of the boarders
and they gave the alarm. The
volunteer fire department respond
ed and soon three lines of hose
were playing on the flames. Not
withstanding the amount of water
that was being turned on the
building, it looked for some time
az though it. were doomed to de-
struction. The 6remen kept up
their work for an hour before they
finally quenched the thirst of the
I angry flames.
How the fire originated is not
known, but it was first discovered
in the attic, where the blaze issued
through the roof. 1t spread rapid
ly through the upper portion of the
building and az the roof fell in the
burning cmbers set fire to the
lower rooms, and today that beau
tlful structure Is mass of ruins.
The loss on household goods
will be heavy. as scarcely one-third
of the furnishings were saved. The
roomers who are wIre mill men and
railroaders lost nearly all .heir
wearing apparel, some escaping
with barely enough clothing to
cover their nakedness.
1t is difficult 10 estimate the loss,
but many think it will run be-
tween $4,000 aud So, 900. The
property is insured in the McDou-
gal agency, the following com
panies having risks on same:
National Union, $1,000; Queen of
America, $1,000; North River,
81 900. Mr.. Wilson had the house
hold goods insured for $500 in the
Buffalo German, the policy having
been issued by Harry Marcum of
Catlettsburg, Ky.
The residence Of Judge w. w.
Marcum adjoining the Wilson
House was also damaged consider
ably. A hole was burned in the
roof of that building and for
time it seemed that that
residence would also go up in
smoke. But the fremen while
battling with the flames on the
Wilson House also kept their eyes
on the judges home and played
streams of water on il alternately.
Many of the effects of Mr.. Mar
cum were carried out and those
that were not damaged by rough
handling received spray of water
occasionally.
J. w. Hammock, who resides in
the Cush Frazier property south Of
the Wilson House, sustained small
loss by some of his household
effects Icing broken. Though
the building was not neces-
sariIy in danger nearly all of the
Hammock household and kitchen
furniture was carried aud thrown
out in the yard and street.

license Revoked.

Drastic action was taken by
Mayor Skain at Lexington on
Saturday to put a stop to viola
tions Of the Sunday closing law,
when he not only revoked the Ii
cense of the Lexington Cafe Co.,
charged with keeping its place of
business open on Sunday, April
10, but declared its bond of 5000
forfeited, and directed City So
licitor to take legal steps to collect
the bond from the indemnity com
pany. This action followed the
conviction in the Police Court of
the Lexington Cafe Company,
which was found oEilty and fined
$50 and cost.

COODer Case Believed to Have
Been Ended.

Robin }. Cooper filed new
bond in the Criminal Court at
Nashville, Tenn, on April 10, to
appear when wanted to answer to
the charge of killing former United
States Senator Edward W. Car
mack. Many believe that because
of the difficulty in getting jury,
young Cooper will never be called
to the bar.
The pardon of Col d. B. Cooper
continues to be the one-absorbing
topic in Tennessee. The Car
mack supporters issued a synop-
sis of pardons made by Governor
Patterson during his term. These
number $50, exclusive Of commu-
.tations. OF these pardons 1872
were given to men convicted OF
murder.

pose OF which Is the propagation Of
the tenets and practices OF the eclec-
tic school OF medicine, Is holding Its
thirty-fourth annual meeting In the

were in attendance when the meeting
was called to order by the president.
DR.. G. s. Sackett. of Charlotte. We'd
nesday morning. The opening session
was devoted to organization and
routine business. The presidents an
nual address is scheduled for We'd
nesday afternoon. The convention
will finish its work Thursday morn.
Ing.
Subjects of great interest to the
profession are scheduled for discus
sion at the sectional meetings TO be
held during the convention. One OF
the sections will deal with the sub
jects OF practice, materia medica and
therapeutics; another with surgery,
and third with obstetrics. The re-
spective chairmen are DR.. +. B.
Crowell. Lawrence, Mich; DR.. II. G.
Palmer, Detroit. and DR.. c. II. Muir
ply. Perry, Mich
The society has received number
Of applications for membership, which
will be voted upon at this convention.
The officers of the society. besides
President Sackett. are: First Vice

dent. DR.. c. H. Murphy, Perry; secre-
tary, DR.. J. E. G.. Waddington, De-
troit; treasurer. DIR. H. G. Palmer,

The doctors probably will go on
record as being opposed to any legis-
lation In Michigan designed to pre-
vent physician from dispensing his
own medicines. Such legislation has
been enacted In several of the states,
and while no agitation in this direc-
ton is noted in Michigan as yet, the
doctors believe In taking precautions

Prof. Henry Lansing Promises Too
Much for $50, So Cops Tell
Him To Quit.

Detectives Wilson and Black have
requested Prof. Henry Lansing, men
tai science elucidator, to cease doing
business In Detroit, and the professor
has promised SO to do. The professor
was doing land Office business at

lice decided that some OF the things
he advertised himself as capable OF
teaching, were too much for one man.
Prof. Lansing was giving series Of
10 lessons In mental science and the
following are some of the things he
taught his disciples to do. all for $50:
To cause anyone to do as you want
them to do. Except crime or anything
evil)
TO cause the one you love TO love
you
To cause your lover. husband. or

Assets, say other Creditors.
United States Judge Denison heard
arguments Wednesday morning on
phase OF the Cameron Currie q Co.
case. Attorneys George Macdonald
and George L. Garfield appeared in
behalf Of creditors of the bankrupt
brokerage firm to protest against the
arrangement by which Charles l..
Freer was given a preference through
his lien upon the stock exchange
seats of Cameron Currie. These had
been given TO Freer as security for the
loan Of certain stocks and Freer fore
closed upon them at the time OF the
failure. The litigation results from
an effort to the creditors to have the
money resulting from the sale OF the
seats declared a part of the general
assets, and Freer a creditor with the
others and getting the same pro rata.
Trustee Fred G.. Austin acknowl-
edged the right OF Freer to priority
in this matter and SO the case Is being
pushed by the creditors separately.
Judge Swan heard arguments In the
case but then turned II over to Judge
Denison.

ENGINEERS SPEND MORNING
LISTENING TO APPEALS
Take Up Matters That Come Up From
Various Divislons-choose Next
Meeting Place in Afternoon.

Consideration of appealed cases
from various divisions involving some
of the basic principles of the order,
led the animated debate in Wednesday
mornings session OF the Brotherhood
of Locomotive Engineers, and called
forth some of the best efforts Of the
hrotherhood's orators. Just what the
fuss was all about is known only to
the engineers themselves, and they are
sworn to secrecy, but from the few
words that filtered through the doors
and windows Of the convention hall it
was apparent that matters OF serious
moment occupied the attention of the
body.
The serious nature Of the discussion
was evident from the fact that the
leaders Of the order, such men as AS.
slstant Grand Chiefs Wills and Bur
gees, were impelled to join in, and. in
earnest tones. they addressed the
membership at great length.
1t was expected that the selection OF
q place Of meeting for the 1912 con.
vention would be made Wednesday
morning, but the appealed cases took
up more time than had been antic!-
rated and this matter will go over
until the afternoon. The contest
seems to have narrowed down to a
race between Chicago and Harrisburg,
With the chances about evenly d..
vided.
J. G. Currie, of Kansas City. Kas.,
was reelected second grand assistant
engineer, and Harry Murray, of San
Luis Potosi. third grand assistant,

ing has been named, as this officer is
invariably chosen from the city in
which the next convention is to be
held. Considerable rivalry has devel-
oped for the Office OF grand guide,
there being no less than 20 candidates
In the field. II. Baker, of Columbus,
Ohio, the present incumbent, has lit
tie chance for reelection, 1t 10 said
He has held the office two years.
The ONCE of grand guide is the first
step In the ladder that leads to the
ONCE of grand chief engineer, and II
a man makes good here he stands q
show of being ultimately a member
of the royal family" that occupies the
platform at the biennial conventions.
For this reason there Is usually a
scramble for the post.
