It is reported that on a rainy Sum
day recently q number of umbrellas
were left by those attending church

mistake he supposed. He therefore
waited until ell we're gone, expecting
that another umbrella would be left
in it, place but to his dismay he found
that ell the umbrellas we're taken and

are thus considered lawful prey BY
many who find themselves caught out

would be Mortified ct the thought of
picking a pocket or stealing anything
else in the line OF personal property
and yet they consider the stealing of
an umbrella as merely good joke on
the other fellow. 1t is safe to say the
offense would quickly become stealing
if the tables were turned and the one
who was in the habit of joking had
his umbrella jokeG away from him.

It is up to the people of the town to furnish nec- eSsary accommodations for the viSi- tors.

The home of the late Daniel and Margaret Harrigan on Walnut Tree Hill was discovered on fire about ? a. m Tuesday. Misses B. Blake and Mary Finnell, near neighbors, were aroused by the barking of their dog and hastened to the home of William Egan who saw that efforts to save the building would be futile, as the entire frame was burned and ready to fall. Great anxiety was manifest ed because it was at first supposed that Timothy Harrigan, the only res ident, was burned, but he arrived home at a. m., having been away during the night, to find his comfort able home in ashes. The place is covered with insurance The loss of the pleasant home is regretted, as other members of the family residing in Bridgeport have been in the habit of spending a part of the summer at their old home which had been well cared for.

found more money could be made manufacturing wire than selling it at $1O0 a month"; he said. With seven others he invested 2,500 in a wire up 50 per cent. profit a week. El- wood, owner of the patents, objected. When they served Gates with legal papers in St. Louis he moved his lit tie plant by ferry into Illinois and made more wire. By the time legal papers reached him there he moved back to Missouri. In the end he beat Elwood and the owner of the patents had to make Gates his partner.
 By 1892 Gates had consolidated all Steel & Wire Co.,, with $4,O0O,O00 cap- ital. In 1895 he put s700,000 into the Illinois Steel Co.,, and was elected president. In 1898 the Illinois Steel went into the Federal Steel Co.,, and under the kindly guidance of Roswell P. Flower, Gates and Elwood sold out at a large profit.
 That year a wire war started in Pittsburg. Gates and Elwood rushed there and bought a steel wire mill for $1,000,O00. Just 43 seconds later they bought another for s9OO,00O. to Cleveland. where he took. over the Cleveland rolling mills, "a.s base of operations,' for $5,000,0OO. Gates and Elwood were buying mad" Gates went to Massachusetts and bought Elwood went to Cincinnati and bought. In the week between Christmas and New Year they bought 100000 worth of wire mills
 One week later the American Steel & Wire Go. of New Jersey, capital $90, 100000, was launched.
 Then Gates went into the market. From 1897 to 1901 was his prime. His profits have been swollen by ru- nor. Gates asa ssgra distand' = per-
