. About one o'clock last Sunday after
noon fire was discovered in the resi
dence occupied by S. A. Thomas and
family. An alarm "was given and in
a very few moments a number of good
willing workers were on the scene,
who saved the greater part of the
household goods. The greatest loss
as is the rule in most fires, were keep
sakes and souvenirs of childhood days
that have been treasured by Mr. and
Mrs. Thomas. The building, which
belonged to Mr. Tripp, of Brownsville,
was totally destroyed. Mr. and Mrs.
Thomas feel very grateful to those
who so willingly rendered assistance
and made it possible for them to save
as much as they did.
It is to be hoped the school prop
osition will be carried out as voted by
the people at the time Mr. Streib made
a motion to leave it in the hands of
the directors to select a suitable site
centrally located. Mr. Fish, Mr.
Grasle and Mrs. Reid are directors of
experience and are not selfish in their
ideas, of course those who desire to
pull everything to the northern ex
tremity of our little city are disposed
to create a dissatisfaction as to the
Schnider property selected by the
board, but anyone who is familiar
with the location used to remove the
O. W. P. waiting room from its former
central location to the present one to
satisfy their own selfish interest un
derstand fully this reason for oppos
ing the sight selected by our erstwmle
j competent board of directors. The
people are getting wise as the "De-
! cember election will show.

pity that all this good weather for
working on the road should be wast
ed and men that could be at work
now have to be idle.
