Times Lead Belt
Representative

Mrs. H. L. Calvird, of Elvins, has
consented to serve as The Times cor
respondent in the Lead Belt. Her
home is in Elvins, and she has a wide
acquaintance throughout the Lead
Belt, where she has lived for a num-
Der of years.
The work of looking after the inter
ests of a live paper throughout the
mining district of st. Francois county
is no small job, and no one is better
aware of such fact than is Mrs. Cal
vird, who has the ability, ambition and
energy to succeed abundantly, if The
Times management is able to Judge
correctly. But in order to render the
best possible service, to the different
points she will represent, it will be
necessary for her to have the coop
GRAFTON of her many friends for
which both Mrs. Calvird and The
Times management will be thankful.

DESLOGE ERE

About 2:30 o'clock Sunday morning
the residents of Desloge were awak.
ened by the cry of fire and soon a
large crowd had gathered on Main
street, only to watch the fire DESTROY
the Post Office, Albert Hurts restau.
rant, Max Mansburg's shoe shop and
the home of Mrs. Rudy. The fire had
gained such Roadway before it was
discovered that it was impossible to
save either the contents or the build
ings. The origin of the fire is not
known. 1t seems to have started in
the restaurant and it is thought that
1t YVES caused by crossed wires. The
building was brick structure so by
70 feet and was owned by Miller &
Grady. They carried 100000 insur-
ance, which will make their loss light.
The two-story frame dwelling occu-
pied by Mrs. Rudy, was also owned by
Miller & Grady, and this building was
insured for $4,000. Mrs. Rudy had
no insurance on her household goods.
The contents of the Post Office. res
taurant and shoe shop were. entirely
destroyed and were not insured. 4
Post Office has been made
out of DR.. Testers old office. Miller
y Grady will erect a new building on
the old site as soon as possible,

1t is with genuine regret that many
of the citizens of this community will
learn of the departure for the far
northwest of Carson K. Wood, who for
almost two years past has been the
efficient and accommodating assist
ant cashier Of the St Francois County
Bank. Carson's friends positively are
numbered by his acquaintance. He
is not only unusually energetic, ac-
commodating and ambitious, but he is
always courteous and accommodating
to an unusual degree. Owing to his
unusual and splendid worth will he be
missed by many.
Carson Wood is a step-son of B. I.
Morris, is 35 years old, has wife and
two children, and has had number
of years banking experience that
thoroughly qualities him to continue
in that business in Culver, Oregon,
where he viii open up a new bank,
with $4,000 capital. While Culver
has but few hundred population, it
is particularly fine farming com
mgnity, He will have controlling
in the stock, more than half
Of which will be owned here. Besides
his experience with the st. Francois
County Bank, Carson previously had
two years experience with the Me-
,hanics American Bank of St. Louis, |
md two years with the First National |
Bank at Portland, Ore, in which lat |
.er place he was married. The heart |
felt best wishes of hosts of friends
