Among them they raised tbe amount necessary to place their brother In good standing. Scarcely had this charitable work been . done when Burbee rode Into tbe swollen slough from which the body was subsequently recovered.

A strong fight Is being made to the city uounoll to have the fire limits abol ished In East Cottage Urove, which covers eight blocks. This ordinance was adopted by tbe old Lemall coun cil, and was approved by tbe College Grove counoil when the towns were consolidated. It bas prevented many wooden buildings from being erected in the past two years. The council Is equally divided on the question, three for and three against, and the deciding vote will be left to Mayor Brlstow, and It Is believed he will oast his vote to sustain the fire limits. Three fourths of the business men will fight to the end to have the limits remain as they are, profiting by the experience of other towns. The agitation bas arisen from men of limited means desirous of engaging In business and not bavlnir sufficient funds to construct brick buildings. Sew Ads Today. F. E. Dunn. Hampton Bros. How's This?
