Last Sunday night at IL O clock
the three room residence belong
ing to r. l. Cockrum, of Stanton,
Kansas, was discovered to be on
fire, and the shrek Of the fire
whistle soon summoned the vol.
unteers to the scene, it only being
seventeen minutes from the time
the signal was given until the
fire was completely out, the boys
making tn heir appearance in
record time and doing some
mighty fine work.
The house had been rented by
parties last week, they occupying
same for several days and depart
ing Friday for some more of their
belongings. and how the fire
started is . mystery, as the house
had not been occupied for at
least forty-eight hours.
The damage will amount to
several hundred dollars. The
house is situated on what is COM
monty known as Smoky row."

score has been piling up for 19

extend its arms.
And not being a climbing or a
pushing person, Edith Boiling Gait
accepted the situation, without bit

ways. She gave attention to the
business OF her husband; she
travelled, she went about In little
shabby electric which she drove
herself, and in time formed small
circle OF friends who were not OF
Washington society.
