The alarm of fire rang out about four o'clock Wednesday morning, jlist at the hour when most peo ple sleep soundest. It took longer than ttnal to arouse our citizens to the fact that there was an actual and veriNble fire, but when they did appreciate the fact they har ried to the "front" with great nnnnimi-y. The fire was found to be In the two one story frame buildings oil the corner of Fer ry and First streets, the corner -building occupied by Chas. Bourgnnles. watches, jewelry, etc.. while the adjoining building wa occupied by Geo. Weller as a suloou. Engine Xo. 1 was on the ground first, tak ing water at the cistern at the intersection of First and Ferry streets, within a few feet ot the fire, and was soon throwing water; but the fire had gained ctich head way that it was found Impossible to save flic building", and all the. energies' of the Fire Department were directed to save Mr. John Bngg? elegant new two-story 'frame bu-int-ss L"Bfl that joined the Lnrulug building; on the cast It was a hot content between the engine r.MO the. fire for the mastery, anu.it one time the whom Side f,T ' a ji the new building was apparently- a solid I sheet ot flame, and it was. thought impossi- j b!e to save it; hut One! saw the' danger, and although their engine stood so close to the fire that the heat blistered the paint on that portion next to the fire, yet. they buckled to it. redoubled their, exertions, and eventually got control ot the tire. At this juncture Linn Engine Co.'s steamer, which had been '-set" nt the ditch just below First on Brondalbin, but had met with some bad luck, delaying her getting into working older, came into action, throwing two stream of water, and the firu wa sub dued in a jifiy. The fire turned .through the sidi; g to ttie plastering in two or three places on Mr. Briggs' building, and the whole side and a portion of the front black ened pud charred. The greater portion of the goods in Mr. Briggs stove emj-oriiiin were removed to the street, white the good. lett in the building were more or less dam aged bv the water, the greatest damage, of course, lieing to the building. We suppose hi loss will probably be at least one thou sand dollars. Mr. Bonrgardes was carry ing a stock that two mouth ago invoiced nearly or quite $'3,000; on this he had an insurance of $3,500. Lithe saloon was a billiard table. Imt fixtures, etc.. valued at 1.200. on which there is an insurance of $:;00. Mr. Briggs is lnlly insured. The building destroyed were old frames the property of Mr. Peterson, and were not insured so tar a we cau learn. .The actual loses will probably not fiot up more than six thousand dollars. The buildings direct ly opposite, one of them the property ot Mr. J. Gradwohl, were damaged to some extent by the rrea! heat. The fire seem? to have originated between the two build ings, and was caused by a defective fine, the bursting of j, coal oil lamp that was kept burning during the nigl.t. incendia rism, "spontaneous combustion, " or some other cause. Each reader can take his choice as to the origin of the fire we con fess our inability to give any positive in formation on the matter. Dkoppkd Dead. Early Monday morn ing John Dehr.ore, or as he was more gen erally known ""One-eyed John," dropped dead at or near the corner of. First and Ferry streets. John, was In search ot hi bitters"' when overtaken by the grim monster. "When deceased fell to the ground, parties near supposing him to.be laboring under the in flue nee of drink. picked him np ami started for the city cala boose ; but upon arriving at One's engine house, ami laying him down for a moment. it was discovert d that, instead of a drun ken man they were carrying an inanimate piece of clay. The Coroner was notified. who immediately summoned a jury. The hotly was examined by Dr. D. M. Jones, and from his evidence, and that ot other testimony, the jury found that deceased came to his death by apoplex, superin duced by intemperance. John had been a hard drinker for some years past, and had at one time been -declared-'! j common drunkard by the Common Council, ami sa loon keepers warned not to furnish him with liquor. Deceased was an hjoffensive ierson, his only fault s far as1 we know living his inordinate love of strong drink Thus another of God's creature's has gone down to fill a drunkard's -gravo in the prime of life, being only about forty-three years old. And yet in the light of his ex ample men will go on partaking of the flowing bowl, assured that sooner or later it will destroy them body and soul. How many more in this community are follow ing in the footsteps of John LWlmore ? No Excuse for his Lying -Some one handed hi a notice tor publication In regard to one of the college societies. - The matter was published as handed to its, whereupon the weak-headed little fellow that writes tue suiy whisky puffs for the UocKtau ao-vei-User accuses us of lying.

Ilia membership with t!iU Lodge bears even date with the Charter itself, which Is dated July 2(3th. 1954. Bro.

The silver chord of life is broken, and the mortal re mains rest beneath the sod of the valiey. His wise counsel and words of truth will be heard no more within the bounds of the three links. But his works will live long aftei, and his word of whe doings will shine with renewed-ltiMurc in years to come, and his memory will ever remain fre'l) in the hearts of his brethren. , Brother, in token of the memory and in respect of the eminent services of Bro.

Ki hx & Miller's Patent Cc-mrisep Harrow a'ni Pulverizer. Tin U an age of invention, and the best minds of the country arc constant!- bending their ener gies to discover new agents, new labor-' saving machinery and implements calcu lated to lessen the expenditure of human mncle. And the fact that every useful invention offered to the public is . well re ceived, and the inventor paid, as a gener al tiling;, munificently for his brain-labor. an added stimulus to others to study out improvements on implements already Invented, or to add something entirely new to the labor-saving machinery of the world. After much study and thought Messrs. Kntin & Miller, of this city, have succeeded in putting together what they call a "combined Harrow and Pulverizer," which seems fair to supercede all other similar inventions. It possesses a number of advantages over any other implement of the kind, and should be seen bv every farmer in the county It is cheap, durable. ' md cm bo built light or' heavy to accoin-- module the desires of all. Not the least among its recommendations Is its entire simplicity in fact, to onr view, this is one of its chief excellencies. The model ex hibited to us contains seventy teeth. The harrow consists of a heavy framework of wood, nearly .square. Passing through the sides of this frame, and just inside, is an iron rod ; this rod passes through the upper end of six bars of, wood. 2 inches thick by a foot wide, confaiuirg the harrow-teeth. These bars or sect ions pass out under and beyond the hinder part of the frame, and the weight of this part of the frame, together with the weight ot the driver, whose seat is attached to the frame, rests upon them. As each bar or section acts independently of its fellow, no matter how uneven the ground, all will be harrow ed alike. Our farmers should call at Harry Knlin's shop and examine the model of the new implement each for himself, that he may judge ot its value as a labor saver.
