film at the Amuzu caught on fire
and, as the operator failed to pull
down the shutter, the reflection
through the little windows made
it appear as though fierce fire
was raging, and for a few min
utes there was quite a bit of con-
fusion, but order was soon re-
stored as Everybody realized that
the building was absolutely fire
proof and there was no danger.
and within twenty minutes the
show went on without further in
terruption and no damage done
EXCEPT that one film was burned.
On Monday evening, a defec-
tive hue started a blaze at the
Fairview Hotel, which was con-
trolled in few minutes with very
little trouble and practically no
damage.

INCREASE IN ELECTRIC

Owing to the fact that the
Light plant is not paying expen-
ses at the present rates which

tion was made. A special meet
ing Was held Monday afternoon
and after some discussion it
was decided to take the matter
up again at the regular meeting
on Monday, Aug. 9th. Mr.. Keep

the matter before the Board.

On Friday morning of last
week the War Department at
Washington started drawing
the numbers of those who will
be called to the colors and pre-
pared to go to France and assist
in defeating the Germans. A
change in the method of drawing
was made at the last minute and
this made it necessary to draw
10000 numbers, or enough to
assign every man his order for
being called. AS there were
756 registered III only Steel e

The first number drawn was 23S

from Washington. the local ex
emption Board, composed of
Sheriff Crimson, Auditor Mus
tad and DR.. Abbot, will meet
and post a notice of the order in
which each man in the county
will be called. Unofficial figures
state that the quota of County is
S6 with a credit of 2 for enlist
ments, leaving 86 to be drafted.
According to instructions 172
men will be notified to report for
examination and if the quota is
not secured from these, then
more will be ordered to report.
