A fire at the home of Frank Goetsch,
PIG n. Sixth Ave. Sunday morning
caused loss of several hundreds of
dollars. The fire started near the
kitchen stove, which presumably was
oyerheated. Some delay was caused
in getting stream of water on the
the place. Some one had unscrewed
one of the caps of the hydrant and
filled the opening with stones. When
the water was turned on the stones
clogged the hose.
The fall of snow Saturday morning
helped sleighing wonderfully, and
will result in making better business
for our merchants. This was mani

by farmers that all the barns were
filed with teams, and the dining
tables were well patronized. Good
sleighing before Christmas always
helps the merchant and farmer.

church and, as usual, booths arranged
from which the ladies sold their vari-
Gus fancy articles, and it is said their
supply of beautiful things exceeded
that of any previous year. They took
in over $500.
The lecture delivered by ex-Gov.
Robt. Glenn at the NJ e. church last
Wednesday evening was well attended
| and was one of the best ever given in
| the city. His topic dealt with the
| future of this country and things
which threaten it, as he looked
at it. A southern born gentleman
when he takes stand on any subject
usually is unSwervable, and Gov.
| Glenn is one of these. He is moral
list but not radical reformer. He is
large man in intellect, and like all
such men he respects and gives lati-
tude to the thoughts of others.
