For half a century it has led S the field, .'; ..llliliuuill FIRE IKIS NOON CAUSES A GREAT ALARM FOR A TIME From Wednesday's Dally. . About 1 o'clock this noon the fin? alarm was sounded, and be ing given for Main street there was much excitement for several minutes, when the lire was located in the cellar of the Ger j ii r drug store, where some chemicals had evidently exploded, and tin clouds of smoke rolling up filled the store with a black smoke through which it was im possible to see. The lire depart cmnt, arriving very shortly after the alarm was sounded, ran a line of hose into the cellar where the source of the fire evidently was, and in a short time the cause of the blaze was discover ed, being in some old boxes and papers that were near the chemicals. It is very fortunate that the blaze did not develop in to a more serious matter and spread into the store itself, and as it is the chief damage to the store and the contents will be from smoke, which completely ' filled every corner of the Store room. The fire was ' first noticed by Ludwig Miller when he return ed from dinner and had made a trip to the cellar, and the alarm was at once turned in. for the fire department, but several parties in the adjoining buildings for sevearl minutes. before the alarm was sounded- had noticed the smoke, but did not think anything of the matter until the smoke began to roll out of the Gering building. - LEAVES ON TRIP TO : SUNNY CALIFORNIA From Wednesday's Dal!y.

"FRECKLES" IS COMING TO THE A ME MONDAY Will Be at the Parmele Monday Evening, February 23, and Is a Guaranteed Attraction. "Freckles," a dramatization of one of the most widely read books in the past decade, by Gene Strat-ton-Porter, is announced for Monday night, February 23, at the Parmele theater From literary standards there have been few greater pastoral stories written. That it has been marvelously popular is attested by the fact that over a million persons have read it. When one has read a story there is always a desire to see it played; to see the characters in real life, and this is undoubtedly the most im portant reason for the success of "Freckles" as a drama. During its trial performances last sea- sou it drew record-breaking audi ences, and with unanimous ac claim the prophecy went forth that its success as a drama would equal its unqualified success as a novel. On regular lour this season, with a complete scenic equipment and stronger company of artists, it is playing to capacity audiences everywhere. Under the management of I). L. Martin and direction of A. G. l)eleiiiater, known from coast to coast as producers of nothing but clean, healthy dramatic attrac tions, this literary hit is making theatrical history. MATRIMONIAL BUSINESS IS BRISK AROUND THE COUNTY JUDGES OFFICE From Tuesday's Daily. . This morning in the county court a petition was filed for the probate of the last will and testa ment of Lewis Bird, deceased, and the petition asks for the ap pointment of Edward J. Mougey as administrator of the estate, which is valued at $-4,000. The deceased was one of the early settlers of Liberty precinct and for a long period of years resided on a fine farm a few miles north west of the village of Union. The county judge today also issued a marriage license to W. J. II. West -of -South. Dakota and Miss Clara Ingram of Louisville. The young people will be married at the home of the bride at Louisville tomorrow. The num ber of young people entering in to the matrimonial state in this county is rapidly on the increase and the license business in the last week has been very good and if the same rate keeps up for the next few months it looks like 191-4 would be a record breaking year for this department of the county judge's office.

A suit to quiet title was -filed today in the office of the clerk of the district court entitled Lillian C. Wilson vs. Alice M. Smith, et al. The petition" states that Alice M. Smith made a homestead entry on June 8, 1870, on the west one-half of the southwest one-quarter of section 0, town ship 12, north range 10. It was conveyed on Juno 15, 1870, to James Plumber, who died in July, 1870, at his home in Massa chussels and that the admin istration of his estate was never completed according to law, but in 1879 the heirs of James Plum ber conveyed the land to J. N Webb and the plaintiff claims that the title was without status owing to the fact that the adtiiin- istraion of he esate was not com pleted and owing to the fact that the plaintiff has had possession of the land for a period of more than leii years past, holding it on a title derived from a sale f the land made by Alice M. Smith in 1871, and she asks that the title be cleared of all claims or clouds upon it.
