A Harrowing Fire.
Charley Iiays, the keeper of the Goose Nibble quart shop, came very near losing his snug little house last Tuesday. The residence is on Fremont street and is full of pretty little jimcracks, leather furniture and pleasant associations. That evening Mr. and Mrs. Hays got to practicing their parts for an amateur theatrical performance to be given shortly in the Goose Nibble propylauim. Mr. I lays had the part of the base villain, who comes home drunk and goes to abusing his wife. Mrs. Iiays had the part of the heroic wife,' with lots of ginger in her joints, who defends herself bravely with costly china and the rolling pin. Both played their parts elegantly and the re" liearsal was going merrily on when an iron kettle, histrionically cast, struck a tine lamp of Dresden ware and knocked the tar out of it—also the oil, which took fire and began oxidizing the residence. An alarm was sent in .ind the department called out, but before Chief Dorsey had begun to play on the oil portraits of the ancestors along the wall the cruel, hungry llaraes had been subdued by the bucket brigade.
Disgorged.
"Owen Moore has gone away Owin' more than he could pay." This selection from a popular Sunday school hymn kept running through the mind of A. Hobbs, the wholesale fiu t( r, Tuesday but the Moore he was thinking of was Dick. Dick Moore is an Indianapolis youth who had been working for Mr. Hobbs some time. Tuusday he did quite a little collecting and when lie failed to show up Mr. Hobbs put the police on his trail. They found him at the Big Four station preparing to hop the blind end of the baggage car for a "pleasant little ride to the Junction." Dick wasn't thinking of leaving town, of course not, but the rude police insisted on his disgorging the funds pertaining to Hobbs. Having done this poor Richard was released.
Where We Are "At."
Frankfort
Times:
By the terms of
the Stutesman Congressional bill, which has been agreed to in the Republican caucus and which will become a law, Clinton county remains in the Ninth Congressional district. The district, -however, is radically changed, being composed of the following counties: Hamilton, Tipton, Carroll, Clinton, Boone, Montgomery and Fountain. The district as proposed, in the recent avalanche gave about 4,000 Republican majority. In 1892 three of the counties were Republican and four Democratic, giving a net Republican majority of about 000, making it in normal conditions one of the close districts. In elections when the State goes over 5,000 either way, the party carrying the State would probably elect the Congressman in this district.
Will Lose llis Arm.
John Layson, the brick mason, is in hard luck. A few weeks ago lie had a tumor taken from under his arm, and for awhile he got along all right. But there was a change for the worse, Tuesday Mr. Laysou was in Indianapolis and the doctors there told him his arm would have to be ampu tated at the shoulder. The operation will be performed in a few days.
A Condolence.
To the memory of Willard Newkirk, by E. D. (ialbreath: Sad hearts be still
Willard lives: 'Tts God's will. Eternal life he gives To those who serve him still.
You can meet him, And with him rest. You can meet him.
With the blest. Yes, Yes, meet him.
In that paradise of rest, Where the saints all do dwell: Yes, meet him with the Blest
There will be no farewell In that sweet land of rest.
Willard has gone before. To becken you on to The golden shore.
Will you not try to do God's will for evermore?
Bo It friends, do it well And In the Resurrection morn You will be permitted to dwell where neither cloud nor thorn Doth cause sorrows to swell.
There we will meet, To part no more. Yes, we will meet
On the golden shore: Meet, and dwell forevermore.
Willard, fare thee well. When done with earth We'll with thee dwell.
And know thy worth. But no farewell.

With due respect and with all good will we wish to make a few remarks concerning Rev. Brown. We are not personally acquainted with that gentleman, neither do we belong to the M. E. church, but we do think he deserves credit for having the courage to denounce dancing as it is carried on in this day and age. We wonder if Rev. Brown is not following the instructions of II Tim. 4, 5, 5. My friends, have we not time and again seen the evils that have arisen from attending such places of amusements? Then why should church members uphold a thing that so much evil has come from? If the preacher does not denounce such things what can we expect of the members and if professors do not, what are we to expect from non professors? Is there anything elevating in a dance? There may be persons attend them who are good people, also virtuous, but they certainly lack in the one respect. Jesus said, for what shall it profit a man, etc., Mark 8, 3(5. There are hundreds of people of the "upper ten" class who have wine on their table for their guests, but is that setting a good example when we know there is great evil in intoxicating drinks'? There may be some churches that, would not object. Some of them have very liberal view, 'tis true. Yet the views of the nou. professor are still more liberal. But let us read our testament through carefully and find what Christ would have us do and see what the views of the Apostles, are
Jesus has given us plain commands which we must observe and obey in or der to gain entrance to that beautiful home. We are glad to know there are some who are not afraid to denounce a thing that so much evil has arisen from. There are too many to-day who speak more to please man than God Matt. 15, 8-9, also St. John, 12, 43. We are glad that there are some who are willing to follow the examples of our vSavior, rather than the examples of our most distinguished men. We may deceive men, but we cannot deceive God. There may be the elite of the land and hundreds of thousands of city people who may be the leaders in society, but there are many things to allure Christians from the teachings of the meek and lowly Jesus. Would it not be much safer, dear friends, to not indulge in so many worldly pleasures, but deny ourselves, Matt. 10, 24-27. Accept Christ as our leader and persistently follow him. Let us, as a Christian people, not hesitate to speak
against any kind of boisterous amusements, Hebrews 11, 25. If we are going to be Christ's followers let us be Christ like, faithful and worthy of our calling. We are living in a fast age. There are many excuses brought out under the cloak of religion, such as, there's no harm in this, or that. Does Jesus tell us there is no harm in it? Let us read the New Testament carefully, St. John' 5, 39. Dear friends, let us take Jesus for our guide that we may in the end hear the welcome, "Well done, thou good and faithful servant, enter into the joys of thy Lord." Now if we have wounded the feelings of any of our co-laborers it was done unintentionally and we ask the favor granted in Mark 11, 25.

Willard Newkirk's name will live on and while he is gone to view the better land let others follow his example.
