AND WHAT MIGHT HAVE PROVEN A DISASTEROUS AND COSTLY ONE.

The Entire Joel Block Threatened

Destruction by Angry Flames Early Thursday Morning—The Origin a

Complete Mystery- -,v| At a very early hour on Thursday morning an alarm of tire was turned in from box 21. at the Engine house ami the department hurried to the Joel block, that magnificent structure being threatened with destruction. Already the flames were under fair headway in the basement and had it not been for the quick and able defense of the tiremen the building would have perhapB been gutted. The origin of the fire is a complete mystery and no plausible theory as to its exact cause has yet been given. Several causes were advanced aB to what started it, some claiming that it Btarted under the back stairway which leads to the second story of the building, but that ie impossible as can be readily seen. The fire started in the cellar of the N. M. Martin grocery store and seemed to be pretty evenly distributed. Dense volumes of smoke poured forth and found its way into almost every room in the building, driving out the tenents and giving a Bmoky hue to the furniture. The Baldwin music house wa« badly smoked and considerable damage was done the fine pianos and instruments in stock at that place. The fire here crept up through the floor in the rear. The music Btock was insured with Voris & Stillwell for $2000 which will more than cover the loss. The grocery Btock was fully insured also.

FIRE CRACKKKS, $£'$:•?•$£

A big crowd hastily assembled on the scene. Two alarms were turned in from boxes 21 and 24.

The grand shoe store wasn't in it. The P. O. S. of A. Hall was tilled with smoke, but to damage done other than a clinging oder on their paraphernalia.

Johnson Clore thinks he heard an explosion during the early stages of the lire.

Hert Johnson thinks it caught under the rear outside stairway. Who discovered it first?

The fire department did most admirable work, Everybody says so. Messrs. Joel are more than pleased with the efficient work of the gallant fire laddies. On every hand you can hear: "They deserve great praise. We have a "craiker jack" fire company now. and they thoroughly understand their business, how to fight a fire and where to fight it. They are all wool and award wide."

$3,800a Itoll. Oil tJollj! What will the average kicker say when he peruses the newspaper columns this week and notes that the city council held a secret

session

evening with a representative of the Harrisburg Steam Roller Company with a prospective view of buying in one of the gol slabbed machines to repair our streets with. Taxes, taxes, taxes and then taxes. The machine is said to be a great thing and can be bought for ne-.rly the same money that it costs to keep the streets graveled during a year's time. 1 ho agent offered to bring one here and give it a twenty days trial that all might see its good works and buy one. The payments of course could be easily fixed up (Probably buy fixing a nobby rate of interest, etc I and no one would have the least oc casieu to regret its purchase. We may get it.

Alleged Kratiryxli mrnl. ». harles K. Young, a prominent school teacher of Boone county, teaching near Jamestown, has been arrested and placed under bond?, on the charge of embezzlement. Mr. Young was until recently a trustee of the town of Jamestown. He had in his possession as such trustee, certain funds which it is alleged that he did not account for. Mr. Young has had financial reverses, and has grown very despondent, yet there was no thought of dishonesty attached to him. He claims that his arrest grows out of political animosity, and that he is not guilty of the charge. His father is quite wealthy, being a farmer of Jack son township.

JOLLY INDIANS.

Sciota Tribe No. 100 I. 0. R- M., Cele­

brate Their Fifth Anniversary in a Most Elegant Manner—A Large

Crowd Present Probably but few people know that the Red Men are not what the name would indicate. They aie a patriotic body, founded ttrictjy on patriotic principle, while their organization dateB back to the war of 1812. Five years ago Wednesday night Sciota Tnbts No. 100 of the Improved Order of Red Men was foundeu in Crawfnrdsville and their fifth anniversary was as complete and happy success as anything ever attempted in tliisciiv. In response to invitations about 250 persons assembled In their beautiful lodge rooms in the Crawford building by 8:30 o'clock and up lo the time for catering to the wants of the inner man the moments were swiftly but very pleasantly passed in nocial intercourse. The spacious rooms were tastefully decorated with Indian instruments of war and the American colors, while music was furnished by Schweitzer's Orchestra, the Red Mens favorite. A delicious supper captivated all. Tho dining room was in charge of Big Chief L. W. Otto who with a corps of able assistants under him administer ed promptly and satisfactorily to the needs of the guests. Concluded the reception and banquet was the dance and until a very late hour the floor was well filled wit" merry dancers. A cut glass punch bowl attracted the guests to one corner of the hall where the popular beverage was served by several pretty papooses. Fjvervthing passed off smoothly and everybody pronounced the fifth annual a howling success.

Slmke '«n lip. A jolly crowd of people attended an evening reception at the Cole home, near the Sperry bridge on Wednesday and thereby hangs a tale. They were driven out by one of the hack lines and arrived in perfect order, but the return trip was not subject to such success. It was surely the case that they attacked a hearty repast while enjoying the pleasures of the evening, for no more returned than went out, but the woight was much increased and upon striking a bug-gy-smashing crossing, hiff went a "gitiny" rod the hack and boom went tho occupants as they embraced each others shaking forms before thoy could ask •'what's the matter?" Dr. Will Robbins, one of the crowd, saved them along and tiresome walk by getting out and carrying the back end of the hack while the horses guided in front. All are rejoicing even yet over their hair breadth escape.

THE

SAME OLD STORY OF A. GIRL'S DOWNFALL-ANOTHER VICTIM TO THE TEMPTER'S SNARE.

Miss Nannie Rosebaum, a Once Most Charming Young Lady, Falls and Now Asks $10,000 Damages from the Author of Her Ruin. it is not a sensation, but fact known for several months that pretty Nannie Rosebaum, the once so prettv and wfu601110 young lady, whose home was in Linden, and who attended the High school here, had yielded to the tempter's snare and fallen. ller case is a particularily sad oue and commands the sympathy of all. 1 he stoiy of her downfall is only the sumo as others, yet her own case is even worse. A young lady possessed of all tho wonderful beauty of nature, of all the charms of perfection admired in her sev. and with most brilliant future prospects in the strength of her virtue, several years ago, is now classed among the lowly, unbefriended and trodden under foot, left to thp heartless storms of the sea of life to ba tosBed and rolled into a e'eath of disgrace. No friends, nothing but a bitter repentance when 'tis too late. In the very limit of her moral death, she has brought suit against a citizen of Linden, her original betrayer, for 810,000, but no sum of money cau ever hide the mental strain. The life of dishonor has been accomplished.and the suit onl) tends to give the sorrowful circumstances publicity and to brine increased showers of disgrace upon tho head of the unfortunate girl. She will be remembered while attending school here us a most modest young lady, bearing out ward indications of a loveable disposition, reserve in action and with a mark of refinement. No one would have entertained a thought of her conditions two years hence, yet this world is made up of wonders, and the human heart is oft c*lled upon to grieve through sympathy fcr a fallen sister or brother. The story of Miss Rosebaum'e disgrace, as near a« we can learn it,is this: During tho World's

Fair, she, in company with her betrayer, a Mr. Dunkle, visited Chicago, and it was there that her downfall originated. They were therefor several days, and after returning home she claim# to have been unable to agree with those with whom (he fchould agree at all hazards, her parents. Less than a year ago she suddenly left her home and went to Indianapolis Here she found a lodging place, and was kept up financially by woll-kntyvn parties, continuing in her downwaru march until at last she secured airirtments in the fashionable quartern of Mattin Beck, on New Jersey street. She was seen on different occasions by Crawfordsville p-ople who once knew her, ano upon reciting the history of her shameful career so newly begun, it only dutnfounded her hearers. She frankly acknowledged her condition and eeeined to lament it, surprisingly, ex pressing a desire to kill the author of her ruin at sight. Her case is deplorable. While there she contracted an affection from which she may never recover. And being agonized to tho utmost, tortured in body and mind, ruined forever, she now asks damages.

Miss Rosebaum was in this city last week, and it was thought that she, would return to her homo and start anew, but. she preferred to return to her miserable haunts anil did so. She ie to be pittied, to be helped up: yet, there are those who would holponn during his righteousness and virtues, but who would hasten to assist in dragging a person down upon tho slightest suspicion of a single error like the one just spoken of, and occuiring at an unguarded moment. Heaven surely cannot sanction such heartlessness. Misfortunes may overtake any one, and to appreciate misery is to be miserable ourselves. Troubles are easily borne by those who have them not, and it is they who can snub the unfortunate and darken their characters beyond any possible future brilliancy. Sad. Truly, too sad.

Frank Yeagley goes to the penitentiary for one year for purloining a horse some months ago: so decides the jury which debated almost the entire (.lay Tuesday. Yeagley's main defense was a plea of insanity but that failed to work and thus ends chapter one of a downward career. Ho may be taken in hoc at tho expiration of hiB tioio and be tried for forgery at Anderson. Frank's past has been decidedly "bug bouse."
