more INCENDIARY
DUBUQUE FIRES
LUMBER YARD, ICE HOUSE AND
BREWERY SUFFER; THREE MEN
ARRESTED As SUSPECTS.

Dubuque, May 29.-Fire fiends. who
started the devastating blaze Satur-
day night which did more than $780,
900 damage in the lumber yard dis
trict, again visited the same portion
of the city Sunday night The flames
completely destroyed the south lun-
Der yard OF the Standard Lumber COM
pany, the principal loser in Saturday
mornings blaze, causing another $780,
900 loss to that concern. Contin &
Kearn's big Ice house, valued at $780,
900, also was destroyed. and the Star
brewery sustained a 10000 loss.
Three men have been arrested, and
are charged with knowing OF the
origin Of the fire. A reward of So, 900
Saturday was offered by the Dubuque
Industrial Incorporation for the ap-
prehension Of the fends who set the
initial blaze.
How Did They Start
That an organized band Of IN
cendiaries with the41ixed purpose OF
destroying the factory district, is
actively operating, is the belief OF
many. Saturday night fres sprang
|up simultaneously In four widely
separated sections OF the city, and the
resulting blaze did half million dol
lars worth OF damage. Last nights
fire started in a secluded corner of the
south yard. and had gained much
headway before 1t was noticed.
One theory which seems to be borne
out In fact is that the previous fire
was the work OF pyromaniac. Speci-
mems OF oil soaked waste were found
at various points in the lumber yard,
and the fire is believed to have sprung
up In several different locations. Three
men who were hurrying from the
lumber yard after the blaze was dis
covered were arrested They denied
knowledge OF the origin of the fire,
but are being held for examination

The ladies of Ardmore are so inter
ested in making money for the church
that the following plan tried by the
First Methodist church in Tulsa and
reaplng a harvest of S3i5 might be Of
interest to them and in some society
might be used to advantage.
1t was almost year ago that each
member started out with n 25 cent
piece as capital to raise the largest
amoutn of money possible for the
church and four means were chosen in
which to carry out the plan. Some
were to use the products of milk, 9th
ers to do needlework, Others to cook
or bake and still others to use some
unique or novel manner in which to
secure the money.
Holland, France, Germany and
America We're the countries which
were represented in the work carried
on and each had n large delegation
present. Mrs. Egbert presided at the
piano and as she played the national
air of the four named countries the
ladies whose work was typical of Hol-
land, butter and milk; France, needle
work; Germany, cooking or baking;
or United States, novelty, went for
ward and deposited the fruits OF her
labors on the altar OF sacrifice.
Tables representing each country
had been arranged and at these re
freshments were served.

Old October.

Ola OCTOBER.
Old October's purt' nigh gone,
And the frost is comm on
Little heavier every day
Like our hearts is that away!
Leaves is changin' overhead
Back from green, to gray and red.
Brown and yellow, with their stems
Loosenin' on oaks and ems;
And the balance of the trees
Gettin' balder every breeze
Like the heads we're scratchin' on.
Old October's purt nigh gone,
| love old October SO,
] can't bear TO see her 60
Seems to me like losin' some
Old-home relative, er chum--
Pears like sorto' settin by
Some old friend at sigh and sigh
Was a passin' out O. sight
Into everlastin' night!
Hickernuts a feller hears
Rattlin' down is more like tears
Drappin' on the leaves below
I love old October so.
Can't tell what it is about
Old October knocks me out
I sleep we'll enough at night
And the blamedest appetite
Ever mortal man possessed
Last thing et-it taste the best!
Warnuts, butternuts, pawpaws,
lies and limbers up my jaws
For raal service, such as new
Pork. spareribs, and sausage, too.
Yit, for all there's somepin' bout
