BRICK LIVERY BARN
BURNS SUNDAY NIGHT.
North Platte had another dlsas
trouIre tho third within threo weeks
Sunday night when tho brick barn
on east Front street was practically
destroyed. Thirteen horses perished,
and harness, hay grain and other!
equipment were consumed. Tho build
ing was owned by Mrs. John Bratt and
tho business was conducted by Noble
& Pyzer.
Twelve of the thirteen horses
burned were tho property of the firm,
tho other belonged to Martin Magnu-
son, who lives south of tho river. Tho
building was valued at $4,000 on which
there wns an Insurance of $2,500. Tho
Noblo & Pyzer loss will bo not loss
than $2,000, partly covered by Insur
ance.
Tho flro originated in tho hay loft
about 11:15,. and three men connected
with tho barn had closed tho door3,
had gone to bed and wero asleep. A
traveling man who had come In on a
night train and was going to the Tim
merman hotol wns tho first to ob
servo smoko Issuing from tho win
dows. Ho gave tho alarm, which at
tracted others and tho sleeping men
wore awakoncd. An attempt was made
to get out tho horses, but tho flames
had gained such headway that this
was Impossible. When the firemen ar
rived the upper portion of tho build
Ing was a mass of fire, and their ef
forts wero confined largely to saving a
rear building covered with corrugated
Iron nnd tho buildings adjacent. Only
tho brick walls of the main building
remain standng.
This is tho second time a livery
barn on this slto has been destroyed,
a frame building having burned In
1S80. At one time the leading hotel
In the city tho Cedar house occupied
tho site. Tho property was deeded to
Mrs. Bratt by her father when she was
but a child, and sho had continued
In possession all theso years.

Bond Election Today.
North Platto Is having a school bond
electon today, tho proposition being
to Issue fifty thousand for a junior
high school. No campaign for the
bonds has been made, and up to eleven
o'clock tho vote cast was very light.
It Is expected that quite a numbe. of
women will cost their ballots this af
ternoon, Uiis being an election, at
which women who have children of
school ago or who have property as
sessed In their own name can
vote.
It is anticipated that tho vote cast;
will bo light compared with tho total
voting strongth, but that the bonds
will carry by a good majority. It is
tho duty, however, of all interested
in tho welfare of tho schools to go to
the polls and vote for tho bonds.

Quiet Clutch Rons in Oil
The clutch of the new Maxwell operates in a
bath of oil. This makes it remarkably smooth
and velvety in engagement, and eliminates 80
per cent, of noise when the gears are shifted.
Designers of the highest-priced cars agree
that the clutch should run in oil.
The Maxwell clutch and transmission mech
enism is fully enclosed.
We are waiting to take you for a
test ride in the car that has broken
all low "First-Cost" records, and is
breaking all low "After-Cost" records.
