Chief Deputy State Fire Commis
sioner Makes Some Very
Timely Suggestions.
The Journal lias heretofore
given warning ,n our eili.ens in
regard to putting up their heaters
for the winter, ami to carefully
examine the Hues ami chimneys
Ix'fore doing so. Now conic Chief
Jicpuly Fire Commissioner Ran
Ja)l with some very timely sug
gestions, wbii; it would he woll
lor the Journal readers lo heed, us
follows:
This is the time of year that
people are putting up heating
stoves and using stove pipes and
chimneys that have laid dormant
since last sluing'. Rhst has heeu
deteriorating the 'old stovepipe;
the weather has heeu deteriorat
ing and making Hie chimney un
safe, and unless a careful inspec
tion is made of the stove, stove
pipe, and chimney, there is liable
to he a disastrous lire in a threat
many homes and business houses.
In a great many instances busi
ness men ami people in their
homes leave their beating stoves
pel up all summer. These stoves
are made a receptacle for waste
paper and other rubbish until they
are completely tilled. The cool,
frosty nights of the fall, when a
quick, warm lire is desired, this
accumulal ion of rubbish is sot. on
(ire; the blae goes up into the
pipe and chimney, the rust Hakes
fall off of the pipe that has been
deteriorating all through the
summer, sparks drop out through
tlx; holes that have been eaten by
the rust, or if the pipe should
happen not to be defective, the
blaze passes on up into the chim
ney, which has become defective
through the summer by reason of
the mortar becoming deteriorated
and falling out, from between the
brick, ami the building is destroy
ed by reason of a defective Hue, or
defective slope-pipe, and that, is
the. reason why we have moru de
fective stove, stove-pipe and Hue
fires 'during the early fall than in
any other mouth in the year.

REYNOLDS 8 ROSS
STOCK COMPANY
FARM NEAR MYNARD THAT
BRINGS $150.00 PER ACRE
Another farm has been sold
near Mynard for a juice that at,
one lime might, have been con
sidered a fancy price. It. L.
I'ropst of Mynard has sold what
he called the home place, near
Mynard, to Halph Wiles, the con
sideration being $150 per acre
cash. This place is a very de
sirable one, being near lo market,,
and a goodly number of acres of
the laud has been in alfalfa for
years and proves to be a winner.
Mr. Wiles js to be congratulated
that he secured this tract of land
for I he price named. H. L. I'ropst
says 1,800 acres of laud is too
much Tor one man to own, and he
proposes to dispose of some of it.
The Reynolds & Ross Slock
company closed their three-1
nights' engagement al the Par-
niele last night in presenting "The
Boss of Z Ranch" to a very fair
audience, which was rendered in
a very satisfactory maimer. The
! company is composed oi good
people, and should I hey visit
I'laltsmoiitti again they no doubt
would meet with a better patron
age. They carry their own scenery
and the company is composed of
perfect ladies and gentlemen, and
the Journal believes that if the
company would make a specially
of "Slaves of the Orient" with
one-night stands they would' be
far more successful. J. Cleveland
Bronner is a line actor, and the
same can be said of Miss Mao
Harding, both of whom seemed
right at home on the, stage. The
other members of the company
are very fair. The company went
from here to Louisville, where
they commence a three-nights'
engagement tonight, and the
Journal bespeaks for them a
splendid patronage.

BECOMES NS
Sheriff Ouintou returned last
evening from Waukeeney, Kansas,
bringing with him Vern Wiser, a
young man formerly residing in
this county, and who was taken
violently insane al thai, place.
The young man formerly resided
west of Mynard and was sent to
the asylum several years ago, but
was later released as cured, lie
traveled quite extensively in Can
ada, Indiana and Illinois. Not
knowing that his parents had
moved back to this county, the
young man went, to Waukeeney to
visit them, and while there was
again visited with insanity. The
sheriff experienced a great deal
of trouble with the patient on the
way back.
The city has been doing a most
commendable thing the last week
in having the street grader out
and using it on the various streets
of the city. This is the lime of
year when such work should be
done, as in a few weeks the cold
weather will set in and make the
work of grading the streets al
most impossible. The streets
have been kept in good condition
in the city during the summer and
now is the lime to tlx them up for
the winter so that the citizens and
the farmers who come lo the city
to trade can llnd them in the pro
per shape for travel. The con
dition of the sti Is is most im
portant, to the city's welfare and
a dollar spent on them brings
great returns to the business in
terests of the town and the wel
fare of it s cil i.ens.
Manager Shlaes of the (iem
theater has secured an excep
tionally strong feature lllin for
this evening ai inai popular nomc
of motion pictures. The tilin is
that of "(icronimo's Last Raid"
and is a realistic picture of life in
the southwest during the Indian
times, and employs a large num
ber of soldiers, Indians and cow
boys in its porliyal. The picture
is in two reels and will furnish a
good evening's amusement.
City Board of Equalization.
The oily council met last even
ing in special session as a boan
of edualization of a large amount
of properly around which the city
desires to construct permanent
sidewalks. The matter occupied
the best part of the evening, ft
each description had lo be taken
up separately and be acted upon
by Ihe city fathers, and it was
cpiile late when the meet iiu Dual
ly adjourned.
Mrs. (ieorge Parks very pleas
antly entertained Tuesday after
noon at her home in honor of her
mother, who is visiting at her

delightfully spent and at an ap

Wednesday afternoon in honor of
her mother, Mrs. Wiley, and Ihe
event was most enjoyable to the

sped very quickly, the ladies' en
