 Business buildings consumed were the Cash Store. a millinery establish ,ment conducted by Mrs. Cash; the
 Moss Grocery, owned by C. B. Moss, which was recently opened. the build ing formeTly occupied by w. D. Mar
 tinez. and the B. Maier wholesale
 mercantile establishment. The great 1 est loss was suffered by the Naier company. which amounted to over Sl00 900 in stock. it was reported. with probably half the amount GOV cred by insurance. The Maier nujld- ing was owned by Mrs. F.. Grihhle. and carried no insurance. The only other property protected by insurance was that of the Moss grocery. which
 was taken out only last week All will suffer heavy losses. the report said

There was nothing in that whole

Carpenter has the fastest right

OF good rights in my time. But he
showed nothing at all in the clever
line. The fellow is a cat. He watches

IS quick as a fash or has an iron jaw.
Carpenter will gl1e him a lot or

Dempsey didn't show me any clev-

Dempsey is more like Jenries than
any othe rheavy I've ever seen. He is

about matching him with Brennan or

BIG COLLEGE
CHOIR COMING
Waldorf College Choir, Con-
sisting of F0rty-F0ur
Trained Voices,
Coming Here.
AN AFTERNOON DATE
Will be at English Lutheran
Church Next Week
Tuesday.

The famous Waldorf college choir.
consisting of fortyfour trained
voices, will give an afternoon program

lat 30 o'clock at the English Luther
an church. There will be no admis-
sion. but a silver collection will be
taken. The members of the church

afternoon date at Webster City was
made possible because Monday evening
the choir appears at Ellsworth and

makes it possible for them to spend
Tuesday afternoon in Webster City.
A Well Trained Choir
The Waldorf college choir sings
sacred music only. The entire program
is committed to memory and is sung
entirely unassisted by any musical in
strument. This is one of the few
choirs in this part Of the country
which sings eight part a capella music.
This is the second annual tour of the
choir. the tour last year being in the
western part Of the state. The choir
has for its aim the promotion of better
church music and in this field is rap
idly forging to the front.

csted to know that Prof. Oscar Lyders.
