But a Bhort time ago a man had business in Murdock and also had some idea of purchasing property and a business here, and when alighting from the car which brought him to the town, was met by a man who told him a tale filled with; woe, and said that the town had gone to the bow wows, and that peo ple just in the edge of town were going to other towns to trade. Now did that man know he could find 59, 000 towns in the United States which he can move to and leave the one where he has so many friends and i.li-r h has hpfn nh1f tn Tnnl.-o n living all these years.

Sunday of FIHE IN ELMWOOD LAST SUNDAY On last Sunday morning the peo ple of Elmwood were aroused from j Ireful slumber by the furious rine- "b ii "' ut-ii, auu utie b:i hastening to ascertain where the fire might be. It was soon discovered that the large barn on the L. U. Cunningham place in the center of town was on fire and had gained con siderable headway. The fire bojj turned on the water but it was to far gone that none of the builclirs was saved. The origin of the fire is not known but the supposition 1.4 that the building was struck by lightning. It was fortunate that it was raining and things were rather damp as the wind was blowing and other buildings close by would had ignited and a rather serious fire might have developed. The building was slightly covered by insurance so will not be a total loss to Mr. Cunningham. Elmwood Leader Echo.
