FARM RESIDENCE
DESTROYED BY
FIRE SATURDAY
The Home of Fred II. Rarage, Two
Miles Northeast of Murray, De
stroyed Saturday Afternoon.
Saturday afternoon the farm home
of Fred II. Ramge, situated some two
miles northeast of Murray, was de
stroyed by fire, which thoroughly gut
ted the house and finally resulted in
the utter destruction of the building
and a greater part of the household
goods.
The fire occurred while Mr. Ramge
was in this city looking after His
trading, and only the children were
.present at the home when the fire was
J discovered, but their cries and the ap
jpearance of the flames soon attracted
a number of the neighbors, but it was
impossible to do anything to check the
flames to any extent and it was with
the greatest difficult that there was
.ny household goods saved from the
building. The children, with the
greatest presence of mind, as soon as
the fire was discovered hastened to
begin to carry out what articles they
could, with the resuit that some of
the furniture was saved in this way,
although the house itself is a total
loss and will be quite a blow to Mr,
Ramge, who is a young man just get
ting started in his career as a farmer,
and who only a few months ago suf-
lered the loss of his wife.
The fire was caused by a defective
flue which permitted sparks to ignite
the rafters of the upper portion of
the house, and fanned by a brisk
breeze, the whole structure was soon
wrapped in flames and burning brisk
ly, with the result that it was not long
until the house was apparently doom-
I ed, as it was impossible to do any
thing toward fighting the flames suc
cessfully. There was a small amount
of insurance.
A LATTER DAY
SAINTS CHURCH FOR
PLUTTSMOUTHi
it has been hoped to place a new
church or place of worship on the
corner east of Garfield park, the prop
erty of Mrs. M. B. Duxbury for the
past eight or nine years, and having
purchased the W. M. Warga property
last August, she now makes the pro
position to the Latter Day Saints
church or bishop of that faith that
she has held the property for sale forband Joseph Hoy, a short time ago,
i,uuu, out ii they wish to locate a
church here and will raise $500 toward
a place of worship for the Latter Day
Saints people here at Plattsmouth and
the same to be erected on this lot or
property, she will donate the rest she
has held the property worth. If there
is any who wish to help with the erec
tion of the church for the Latter Day
Saints people, which we hope will be
a benefit to the church and her people,
or if there is any offering, kindly hand
it to Brother J. R. Jones of this faith.
Racing on Roller Skates.
There was quite a good deal of in
terest displayed at the Crystal Star
roller rink on Saturday evening when
a race on roller skates was staged by
Ted Renner and Jim Higley, and for
a short time the race was kept on in
good earnest, but at the finish of the
half mile race Ted was found to be
the winner, having covered the dis
tance in one minute and twenty sec
onds. Teddy is sure some racer and
has issued a challenge to anyone in
the city to race against him.
Mrs. A. J. Beeson Very Low.
Mrs. A. J. Beeson, who was report
ed several days ago as being quite
sick, is showing no improvement and
her condition has become a great deal
more serious and she is in a very
critical condition at the present time.
Complications have caused a great
deal of worry to the family and the
attending physicians, but it is hoped
that the patient may be able to rally
from the illness with which she has
been suffering without further danger.

there was nothing to mar the rare
I leasuies of the event.
MRS. LUGINDA HOY IS IN A
VERY CRITICAL CONDITION
This morning Mrs. Lucinda Hoy,
who is making her home with her
daughter, Mrs. Theodore Stucklin, in
the south part of the city, sustained a
very severe stroke of paralysis and I
her condition is quite critical. Mrs.
Hoy is 89 years of age and has not
been in the best of health for some
time, and since the death of her hus-
has been gradually failing. Mrs. Hoy
has just received notice that her claim
for a pension has been granted by the
United States government for the sum
of $12 per month, but her serious con
dition does not seem to indicate that
she will be able to receive it, as he
malady makes her recovery almost
impossible.
UNCLE TOM FRY NEAR DEATH'S
DOOR FROM PNEUMONIA
Theodore T. Fry, who has been suf
fering from a very severe case of
pneumonia at his home in the west
part of the- city, has been gradually
growing worse and his condition this
afternoon is most critical, as he is un
conscious and unable to recognize the
members of his family, and hopes of
his recovery are very faint. Mr. Fry
has been a resident of this -city for a
great many years and possesses a
large number of warm friends who
will learn with the greatest regret of
his serious condition and trust that
he may be able to recover from the
attack of pneumonia safely. The
relatives of Mr. Fry residing out in
the state have been called to his bed
side.

of the carriers on the rural route out

to start on his rounds, when he was
taken suddenly very sick and was
compelled to return 10 his home, as

illness of Mr. Hough is not of a
serious nature and that he will soon
