Sunday night, preaching a strong
and forceful ermOn from the sub
iect, Il know whom have believed"
The Bishop has many ardent admir-
ers here, and the briefness Of his

ted. Having an appointment in

was unable 10 remain over in Wal

the fire starting in the loft Of the
barn and burning like finder. rem
derlng any attempt at saving the
buildings totally futile. Assistance
cam" early, however, and practically
every article Of household goods was
saved from the home. There were
some five or six horses and mules in
the stables. and all of these eXccpt
one horse were saved. One animal,
II is thought, returned to the build
ing after being led to the door and
turned loose. The time was TOO
snort to ~endcavor TO halter the ami
mails and get them out in that man
ner, so each was led to the front on
south Broad street and turned loose.
All Of the other domestic animals
about the place wcre saved, including
COW, pigs, Belgian hares. etc. Mr.,
Aliens loss is somewhere about q
thousand dollars, with no insurance.
me origin OF the fire is uncertain.
though it is known to have started
IN the loft among fced-stuffs stored
there. There had been recently
stored a quantity Of new rye forage,
though this was thought to be sufi-
GENTLY cured to preclude the posi-
bilty OF heating, and 1t is more prob
able that in storing a match had
Deeh dropped in the heap and that a
rat started the fire by means OF this.
