Miss Dean laughed off the ugly
prophecy. Yesterday morning she
left her apartment to visit a friend.
An hour later she tried to telephone

but she could not get any response.
Alarmed. Miss Dean hurried home.
The interior of her apartment looked
as though it had been struck by 4
typhoon. Everything was topsy-tur-
Wy. Mary was not to be found.
Why h did not faint on the spot
Miss Dean cannot understand. In re-
Spouse TO her urgent call Detectives

a bar pin with four diamonds. and
numerous other pieces Of jewelry.
She cannot estimate the value Of the
jewelry lost.
Miss Dean said she engaged the
new maid on Monday morning. The
girl told Miss Dean her name was
Mary Braun. She gave as reference
a Mrs. Cohen, Of Mt Vernon.
i was SO captivated by her charm

Fire Destroys Old
Land Mark Here

The frame store building on north
Oak street owned by c. C. Barr AMI
occupied by Lee Townc as q barber
shop and the Hub Clothing Store Was
burned last Thursday evening.
The fire WAS discovered about II
O'Clock in the evening and the alarm
was Immediately turned in and The fire
department responded promptly. The
fire was found to be in the basement Cf
the building and three lines of hose
we're laid and the fremen were soon
playing the water on the building. Tho
fire was very hard to fight on account
OF the location of the building and the
firemen did we'll to extinguish the
flames before the building was entire
ly consumed
The building was erected thirty
three years ago by Hans Mathiescn
and was one Of the old land marks Of
tie city 1t has caught fire several
times before but the fire was always
eXtinguished before any great dam
age was done. However, this time, it
is thought to be damaged so badly
that it would be useless for the owner
to attempt to repair it. In fact the
city ordinance covering the erection
of buildings within the fire limits
would not permit the building to be
rebuilt unless it was made fireproof.
1t is said that Mr. Barr, the owner
Of the property will erect modern
three story block on the lot the com
ing spring. The lot is one of the
most valuable business lots in the
city.
The building was insured for 81,
10000
Mr.. Self, the owner of the clothing
store is the heaviest loser, placing
his loss at $1,000, with only $4,000
insurance carried on the stock. Mr..
Towne's loss will probably amount to
about $500 in fixtures and plumbing
work, fully covered by insurance.
Mr.. Towne has rented the store
room at 100 Oak street south, owned
by George w. Case, where he is now
conducting his barber shop

The South Shore
Creamery to be Sold

Notice of a sheriff's sale Is now tack
ed upon our local creamery. Cooper
alton and individual effort have alike
failed in keeping the institution on Il
paying basis. The fault lies with the
farmers. They did not furnish the
business. The farmers Of this locality
have almost forsaken the raising Of
cows and have staked their all on the
production of wheat and other small
grains. The drought of 1871 was an
educator that they will not soon for
get. Had they taken advantage of the
few palmy years and built up good
dairy herds and established silos, a
year of partial drought would not have
made much difference in their income
