House, $1,400 Furniture for $300.

The big two-story residence of Mr. and Mrs. James Deere, two miles southeast of this city, was consumed by fire about 11 o'clock Saturday night, together with much of its contents. The origin of the fire is thought to have been from an over-heated gas stove, although this is not certain. The stove had been found in an overheated condition a few nights previous, it is reported. The fire started in the back part of the house and had made great headway when discovered.

Mr. and Mrs. Deere were sleeping upstairs and were awakened by the barking of their dog, almost at the same time the alarm was given from the outside by a neighbor. All

part of the furniture from the front rooms. The furniture in the upstairs rooms, dining room and kitchen was consumed, and also the smokehouse containing the year's supply of meat and lard, and the apples and canned goods in the cellar were consumed.

GREENFIELD REPUBLICAN,

ON NO

Editor of Salt Lake City Herald Republican Says Former Greenfield Man is a Versatile Genius.

The following article from the Salt Lake City Herald-Republican, concerning a former Greenfield man, will be of interest to all our citizens:

A Versatile Genius

A humble editor with but one "job" on but one newspaper may be pardoned if he publicly expresses the privately envious but profound respect he entertains for Noble Warrum, the City Recorder. Versatility amounting to positive genius must command deference in all the wralks of life. Immortal Caesar, dictating to five secretaries letters of current import and all the while penning his memoirs with his own mailed fist, was a study in slothful tranquility compared to the official clerk of the city commission, who edits three daily newspapers and one weekly and still finds time to participate extensively quite extensively—in a modern city government.

Editing one newspaper is considered a sufficient task for the average man however little may "be the erosion on one's gray matter because of the absence of it, the physical demands involved tax the endurance of most. Few of those engaged in this labor would be willing to accept other duties and responsibilities even if their jurisdiction was confined to a single newspaper if they shrink appalled before the tremendous burden involved in adding one or more engines of publicity to their list, what might be their emotions if the duty of assisting in the government of a great people should also be joined to their daily stint?

This word of praise for a giant of the craft is evoked by much the same emotion that thrills the unimportant manufacturer as he contemplates a stupendous trust. As such, he is cognizant of the difficulties that beset even his daily round and only by spurring a flagging imagination to greater endeavor may he conceive how mortal could accomplish so much. Envy may temporarily incline to irritation the humble editor who speaks to but one clientele in comparison with Mr. Warrum's opportunities for shouting loudly through three different mouthpieces daily, and one each week and yet consciousness of one's limitations soon irons the frown away, for the role of Protean also has its disadvantages.

Mr. Warrum, to whom the above article refers, is a son of the late Noble Warrum, of this county, and a brother of Mack Warrum, sheriff of Hancock county. His wife is a daughter of the late Andrew Hagans. Mr. Warrum was born and reared in this county, and was here on a visit to his brother and other relatives a few months ago

Mrs. W. F. Spangier was a guest of her sister, Mrs. Morton Macy, at Knightstown Sunday.

Miss Bess Stanley left Sunday for Knightstown, where she will visit relatives before going to Eaton to begin the spring millinery season.

"Clean Up the Bowels and Keep Them Clean"

There are many remedies

had for constipation, but the difficulty is to procure one that acts without violence. A remedy that does not perform or a should be accomplished by persuasion is Dr. Miles'

Laxative Tablets. After using them, Mr. N. A. Waddell, 315 Washington St.,

Waco, Tex.,

says: "Almost all my

have been

troubled with constipation, and have tried many remedies, all of whioh seemed, to cause pain without giving much jelief. I finally tried Dr. Miles' Laxative Tablets and found them excellent. Their action is pleasant and mild, and their chocolate taste makes them easy to take. I am more than glad to recommend them." "Clean up the bowels and keep them clean," is the rftivice of all physicians, because they realize the danger resulting from habitual constipation. Do not delay too, iongft but begin proper curative measures.

Dr. Miles' Laxative Tablets area new remedy for this old complaint, and a great improvement over the cathartics ypu have been using In the past. They taste like candy and work like, a charm. A trial will convince you.

Dr. Miles' Laxative Tablets are sold by all druggists, at 35 cents a box containing as doses. If not found satisfactory alter trial, return the box to your druggist and he will rstttrn four money. $• MILM MMIOAk GO* VkUrt, JM.

ANOTHER ONA R. TALROT SURSCRIRED CONCERT

Ignace Jan Paderewski, fourth Ona B. Talbot Subscribed Concert, will be heard in the Murat Theater, Indianapolis, Wednesday evening, February 25th. As the seats are now on sale, the patrons of the cities of Indiana should mail in their orders for seats at once. Many clubs have taken great bodies of seats and are coming to this performance as one goes to the Shrine of Wagner at Baieruth. No personality before the public today holds the ^mass of people in the same way that this wonderful pianist does:

Prices: Boxes seating six...$25.00 Main Floor, first 18 row 3.00 Next three rows 2.50

Last five rows 1.00 Balcony, first two rows 2.50 Next four rows 2.00

Next five rows 1.50

All orders must be accompanied by check made payable to Ona B. Talbot, and self-addressed envelope.

Paderewski made his first appearance in America in Carnegie Hall, New York, November 17, 1891. One of the most interesting accounts of this was written for Everybody's Magazine by James Huneker, one of the most brilliant of our writers on musical subjects. In describing it, he said: "It was about 1891 that I attended a rehearsal at Carnegie Hall, in which participated Ignace Jan Paderewski. The Minor Concerto of Saint-Saens, an effective though musically empty work, was played. There is nothing in the composition that will test a good pianist, yet Paderewski made much of the music. His tone was noble, his technique adequate, his single-fing-er touch singing. Above all, there was a romantic temperament exposed not morbid, but robust. His strange appearance, the golden aureoled head, the shy attitude, were rather puzzling to public and critic at his debut. "Not too much enthusiasm was exhibited during the concert, nor next morning in the newspapers. But the second performance settled the question. A great artist was revealed. His diffidence melted -in the heat of the frantic applause.

His recitals, first given in the concert hall of Madison Square Garden so expanded in attendance that he moved to Carnegie Hall. There, with only his piano, Paderewski repeated the Liszt miracle and year after year. And this year, perhaps next. /r, "Never in America has a public proved so insatiable in its desire to hear a virtuoso. It is the same from New Orleans to Seattle. "Now, to set all this down to exotic personality, to occult magnetism, to sensationalism, would be unfair to Paderewski and to the critical discrimination of his audiences. Many have gone to gaze upon him, but they have remained to listen. His solid attainments as a musician, his clear, elevated style, his voluptuous, caressing touch, his sometimes exaggerated sentiment., his brilliancy, endurance and his dreamy poetry—these qualities are real, not imaginary. "No more luscious touch has been heard since Rubinstein's. Paderewski often lets his singing fingers linger on a phrase but as few pianists alive, he can spin his tone, and so yielding to the temptation

Eclectic is the best word to apply to his interpretations as he plays programmes from Bach to Liszt with fidelity and versatility.
