House and Contents Burned.


The Dodgeville Sun Republic: Sun
day morning while our people were
eating breakfast the sound of the fire
bell was heard above the roar of the
strong wind. It was soon learned that
the fire was in the home of w. r. Pen
gelly on East Walnut street near the
Catholic church. The fire company re-
sponded promptly but before the water
could be turned on the entire inside Of
the house was a roaring furnace of fire.
1t was learned later that while Will
was writing letter in the front room
his wife was busy getting breakfast in
the kitchen upon gasoline stove. A
strong wind was blowing, creating a
draft and Mrs. Pengelly started to move
the stove out of it when in some man
ner the supply tank was knocked to the
floor and in moment the entire inside
of the house was q mass of flames. So
rapid was the work of the flames that
nothing to speak Of was saved. The
building was Quilted; only the walls are
standing. The quick work of the fire
company in suppressing the flames and
the heavy rain Of Saturday night uns
doubtedly saved adjacent property as
the high wind made the fire at that time
very dangerous.

A Good Word For Kendailtown.

Belmont Success: The magnificent
new Catholic church in Kendalltown
was dedicated Tuesday, June 9Th. It
is grand edifce, and will stand as a
living monument to glorify God. A
beautiful structure of this kind to be
built by an entirely farming community
makes it all the more praiseworthy,
and Rev. Father Norris has just cause
to feel proud of the achievement. The
members of both congregations in Bel
mont must stand back, when it comes
to church building, and take off their
hats to the Irish farmers of Kendall
town. At the same time this same bunch
of farmers have been in the front ranks
of the good road movement, and today
there are better roads in Kendalltown
than in the village of Belmont. Too
bad the railroad is not out at Truman
where such enterprise seems to center.
