a CENTURY or PEACE.

The proverbial saying that blood is thicker
than water finds happy confirmation in the hold
ny Of a conference between English speaking ma
ions to arrange for celebrating in 1915 hundred
years Of peace between the United States and
Great Britain. The holding OF such conference
has served to excite keen interest both as to the
duration Of peace relations and the lesson they
teach
As Mr. Bryan appropriately observed in his
address at the banquet to the delegates from
Great Britain in Washington Monday the fact
rhat these peaceful relations between the two
tries have continued unbroken for century ac-
oen,uates the growing belief that we are to sub
siiue the spri, Of peace for the spirit OF war -
at least in so far to the application OF that spirit
TO the relations OF the two countries named.
1t takes a long time to outgrow feelings OF Ma
tonal an,ipa,hy that generally preoede and al
ways follow war. and j, is only by adjustment to
that Just attitude which one nation should hold
toward another that such feelings are ever over

Uncle Sam to convince the people OF Great Brit

from the Mother Country.

SATURDAY, JANUARY IS, 1913.
O. K. MEAT MARKET BURNS

on Third avenue between Monroe
and Madison streets, was discovered
to be on fire and an alarm turned
in. Owing to a misunderstanding
and confusion of signals, the fire
department started for the west
end and had reached Broadway be-
fore location of the fire was deter
mined. When connections were
made with the sewer on Second
avenue, hose laid for distance of
a block and water turned on, ex-
actly one-half hour elapsed from
the time the first fire whistle had
been blown. The building by this
time was completely enveloped in
flames but the fire was very quickly
subdued leaving the walls and
roof intact and no damage was
done to sheds, barn or neighboring
buildings.
The lower floor was occupied as
meat market and store by Albert
Alternately and the family resided
up stairs. Mrs. Alternately was
awakened by smoke which filled
the bedroom and she aroused AL
bert who rushed down stairs to
give the alarm and to try and put
out the fire. The family had time
only to dress and carry out a few
clothes.
The origin of the fire is a mys-
terry, the only solution offered be-
ing the supposition that mice and
matches started it since it was
found to have come from the floor
in the northeast corner of the store
room and apart from the chimneys.
Had the fire started from any other
part of the building it is probable
that the escape of the family by
the stairway at the rear would have
been cut off.
The grocery stock, meats and
household furniture are a total
loss, only partially covered with
insurance. A fine new scales and
cash register were among the arti-
cles destroyed. The building,
which is one of the oldest struct-
ures in town, is owned by Ralph
Gary and was insured.
The fire apparatus was hauled
to the scene by the fire boys and a
few volunteers on foot and it was
mighty hard work through the
snow. w. s. Woods made record
trip in his car back to the Town
hall after more hose when it was
found that the one reel would not
reach the fire.
