A Destructive Fire.

The fire alarm was sounded last
Wednesday morning about 2:3O O'Clock
and it was soon known throughout the
town that Elrod g. Co.'s spoke mill
was burning The fire engine and
crew, and hundreds of people were
soon down to the scene. The fire
company worked heroically, but it was
soon discovered that the flames could
not be extinguished, and in a short
time the mill building, a large lot of
breast yokes, all the machinery, and
everything connected with building
we're in ashes. The building was too
far gone to save it when the engine
and crew reached the fire. It is esti-
mated that two thousand dollars worth
Of breast yokes we're destroyed. Add
ing the machinery, building and every
thing else connected with the mill the
loss win reach seven thousand dollars
and there was no insurance.
Mr.. Elrod has no idea how the build
ing caught. At the church hour he
left his residence and passed through
the MILL on his way to services, and
everything was all right. He does
not smoke, and 1t LOOKS very'much
like 1t was set on fire. If he has an
enemy he does not know it.

Some Words Of Comfort.

Dedicated to J. T. Goodman's fam
lily by Jesse L. Murrell.
A good husband, father and son
Has left this earthly shore;
A blessed crown of life has won,
He rests forevermore.
He loved his God and worshipped Him.
He loved his fellowman;
He hated wrong, abhored all sins
And for the right did stand.
He loved to help his brother man.
And cheer him on his way;
And for the right did work and plan
Until his dying day.
he gave his heart to God when young,
His faith declared By works;
And through lifs's journey prayed and
sung,
From duty never shirked
He died from home, but in Gods arms,
He breathed his last in peace;
Without one fear or least alarm,
His SORROWS all have ceased.
He lives upon better shore, -
Where troubles never come;
Where in the long foreVermore,
His God shall say "well done"
o mother, son and weeping wife,
Commit your all to Him;
Trust in Him, He win bless your life,
And keep you pure within.
And some sweet day, He'll call you
home,
To meet your loved one there:
Where you no more shall weep and
mourn
: Gods richest blessing share.
And there together you shall live
While endless years go by;
The joys, of heaven no one can tell,
And you no more shall die.

are tens Of thousands more men trying to

This condition to some extent existed
prior 10 the war, but under tho great stress
OF demand tor fuel during the war numer-
GUS coal mines were developed which under

cceds the demands nj consumption. Hence
there is enforced idleness among the miners

the same time the profits OF the operators
diminished by overhead expenses neces-
sary to keep the mines in working order
To Offset this loss the pubic is Eoused by

In tho opinion o! Representative Burton,
the only settlement that can he accomplished
is by restriction in the number OF coal mines
which are utilized and in diminished num-

Will be painful. The turning OF u:al from
