SanbOrn Fire.

The SanBorn Livery barn and equip
ment, owned by Albert Hoffman and
George Schultz, was totally destroyed
by fire on Wednesday afternoon of
last week. Smoke and fire was first
seen coming out of the upper part
of the barn shortly before five o'clock.
By the time anyone could get near
the blaze, the whole structure was a
mass of flames and nothing could be
saved from the interior.
The upper part of the barn was
filled with hay There were two Ford
automobiles, two horses, harness,
tools and other equipment in the barn,
all of which was destroyed, together
with the books and furniture of the
office. The loss is about $4,000, with
less than 7one-fourth that amount of
insurance.
The fire department did good work
in saving nearby buildings. With a
strong wind from the northwest it
looked for time as though half the
town might burn. The Sackreiter
residence was damaged by the heat,
the rear of the Weber garage started
blazing, the hotel warehouse and 9TH
er nearby buildings were ablaze at
times.
Burning sparks were CARVED long
distances-the roof of the M. E..
church and the roof on the d. G. Klein
residence both started to burn, and
the porch roof on the Mrs. Krahn
residence two blocks away, had to be
torn apart to put out healthy blaze
under the shingles.
The Springfield fire department.
made a quick run and did good work
in assisting to check the spreading
flames.
The loss is a heavy one to Schultz
and Hoffman, and they have not de-
cided whether they viii rebuild or not.
For the present they are continuing
the dray business with their teams in
the old Garbe rn.-Sanborn Sem
tinel.

PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH

A. w. hOSS, FaSLOf.
The Christian world is in the midst
of serious agitation along the line of
Bible doctrine, even as the material
world is tossed to and fro by economic
questions. Our church has a duty
along lines. We would reach the heart
of the trouble on both lines.
True religion is not a thing of doc
trine nor of eager and intellectual
speculation. 1t is the tie that binds
the life on earth to the Infinite and
Eternal Life beyond the Veil. Hence
our effort to help where help is most
needed, both in Church and State.

"Who could the man with Alice
be "
The question shaped in Kate
Ward'smind and every step she took
bore in as if there was some peculiar
significance attached.
The man had been too tall for
Sing 10y. 1t wasn't Sing Logs voice
either.
When she reached her room, Kate
FASTENED to the window. hoping that
she might catch sight of the two.
She leaned far out. The street was
quite deserted
For possibly 20 minutes she pac-
ed the floor trying to arrive at some
conclusion. She believed Alice was
concealing something. Finally she
made a decision and then retired.
Kate Ward slept peacefully that
night slept as if a great burden
had been lifted from her mind.
She rose in the morning refreshed.
The sun was shining brightly. The
air was soft. Kate felt almost hap
Ply as she stepped out on the street.
If the cloud which Swallowed her
love for Dan could just be lifted! If
it just could she would ask nothing
more of life than just to live out her
days true to her dream of the one
great love for every man and every
woman.
She made her way first toward the
Chinese laundry. She intended to
say Good Morning" to Alice and
then go on about the other affairs of
the day.
As she opened the door of the
lalndry she hearI Sing 10y singing.
Things must be going well with the
