BAD FIRE NARROWLY AVERTED AT WAGNER Quick Action with Interior Fire Hose Prevents Serious Conflagration Walls of Room Gutted From Monday's Dally. A serious conflagration was nar rowly averted this morning at about 8:30 when a blaze originating in the basement of the Wagner hotel build ing immediately in the rear of the Wagner barber shop was subdued by i j, o . , . . . , , i ne aiu oi a nre nose mat nas uung suspended from the wall in the hotel office for many years without ever being used. Its time came this morn- ing. however, to be of service. The blaze was discovered by Rube Erehart as it was leaping up the practically unused stairway leading from the rear of the barber shop to the basement and the door opening thereto was unlocked by Mr. Lewis, who with Hoy Mayfield unreeled the firehose suspended from the wall in the Wagner and plied a. steady stream of water upon the flame. When discovered the fire had gutted the walls of the small room in which it was confined, as well as burned away the ceiling Joists sup porting the floor of one of the sec ond story rooms in the hotel and bid fair to continue its work of destruc tion, with only the sky as its limit. During the excitement an unsuc cessful attempt was made to turn in a tire alarm, but just at the time. Dr. Sandin. fire chief came along and took accounts for the fact that no general j alarm was somided.- -- - - - A few minor articles belonging'to the barbers and hanging in the closet were destroyed and the wall paper in that room was spattered badly, which includes the sum total of damage sustained by the barber shop. The damage to the interior of the room in which the fire was largely confined, however, is complete, and will require much repair. Mr. Ric'hey. owner of the building, Landlord Wagner and the barbers are congratulating themselves on the discovery of the blaze before it had gained greater headway and the ac cessibility of the interior fire hose, which. more than any one other thing, is responsible for the compara tively small loss. Fire Chief Sandin attributed the blaze to an unprotected light wire leading from a switch at the door to an outlet in the basement. SUFFERS FRACTURE OF HIS RIGHT ARM Alfred Edgerton Victim of a Serious Accident while Working at the High School. Alf Edgerton is wearing his right arm wrapped in splints as the result of an encounter received Saturday afternoon from the head of a heavy sledge hammer and as the result of which accident the right forearm. was badly fractured. Mr. Edgerton and Jess Green w-ere engaged in chipping off a concrete foundation a.t the high school and while at this work Mr. Edgerton was handling the chisel and Jess was working the sledge. All went nice ly for several hours but as they were driving away the head flew off of the handle and the large, heavy sledge struck Mr. Edgerton on the arm, causing a severe fracture. The injured man was hurried to the office of a surgeon where the in jured arm w.as set but it will be some time before he is able to use it and the injury proved one that is certainly very annoying to the in jured man and will require his los ing some sis weeks of valuable time at least.

BIBLE CLASSES HOLD BANQUET SENIOR LADIES CLASS BANQUETS MEMBERS OF MEN'S SENIOR BIBLE CLASS Saturday evening the parlors of the Methodist church was the scene of a very enjoyable gathering when the members of the senior ladies' bible class entertained the members of the men's senior class at a very pleasant banquet. The parlors of the church had been beautified by a decorative scheme of red and green and in which the bright tinted autumn leaves found a place in the attractive color scheme. The banquet tables were decorated with the bright red berries of the bittersweet intermingled with the green foliage and over this scene the bright red and green candles cast their softening glow, making it a spot of the greatest beauty. The social workers, an organiza tion of the younger women of the church. had charge of the banquet and the menu was one that certainly ! made a great impression upon the . . e 1. . 9 1. I , .. seventy-four members of the ban queting party by its delicious viands and the artistic and clever manner In which the serving was carried out by the laddies. The banquet was presided over by Msr. E. H. Wescott as toastmistress and her clever and pleasing intro duction of the different toasts was much enjoyed by all of the party. Mrs. O. O. Schwenneker. teacher of the ladies class, made the opening address on the toast list and in which she extended the welcome of the eve ning to the members of the gentle men's class and in turn the ladies were very highly complemented on the very happy occasion by the speakers who followed from the mem bers of the men's bible class. Don C. York took as the subject of his toast. "Silver Threads Among the Gold." and spoke briefly of the par ticipation of the older people in the active church work and at the con clusion of his few remarks sang very effectively the beautiful old song from whose title he had taken the SULJ i Throughout the banquet the raem Ibers of the party enjoyed the singing of the old songs as well as the pop ular melodies of the day and which made a novel and entertaining fea ture of the evening. "I'll Say She Does" was the topic on which M. H. Cotton spoke briefly and told of woman's work in all churches of the nation and paid the women of the church a well deserved tribute. Mrs. II. II. Cotton read a very clever lit le poem in which the names of all the members of the party were giv(.n and Wliich was received with .marked approval by all of the ban- queteers. Mr. T. W. Glenn gave a special musical selection. "Comin Through the Rye." in his usual pleasing man ner and this selection was heartily received by the auditors. "I Want to Know My King", was the subject of the address of Attor ney A. Li. Tidd, teacher of the men's classs, and preceding the address. Miss Clara Mae Morgan sang the hymn of this title and from which the speaker took his remarks on the need of the men and women to take part in the church work to come to a fuller realization of the teachings of their King. Hon. H. n. Windham, one of the oldest members of the Methodist church in this city and who has. during residence here from territor ial days, been closely identified with the active church work, chose as his subject, "Memories." avid his address took back over the past half century the minds of his auditors to the time of the establishment of the church here and among the interesting stor ies of the early church was that of the first organ that had been used in the church and which had been the first in the city. This organ was in stalled in the church and the first person to play the instrument was Conrad Schlater. one of the pioneers of the county, and who. while of an other religious faith, had been pre vailed upon as he was a gifted mu sician, to play the organ at the church. This organ now is stored in the basement of the church en joying a rest after many years of hard service in assisting in the cause of the church. The last speaker of the evening was Rev. A. V. Hunter, who spoke on the subject. "The Restless Sea" and gave a very beautiful and inspira tional address. Rev. Hunter and Mr. and Mrs. Oliver Bimson of Oakland. Neb., who are guests at the Hunter home closed the program with a very enjoyable vocal trio. The close of the program and the pronouncing of the benediction brought to the close one of the most enjoyable church gatherings that the Methodists have enjoyed for many months.

Still the streets of the city were teeming with business, and all within reach of this busy part aro for tunate in that they have an abund ance of opportunity to purchase any and all wares at very reasonable, prices, compared with the larger and more populous cities, which with glaring advertisements in the state papers seek to secure the patronage of the conservative buyer.

Yes. we are home again, and right glad of it at that. We were at the head waters of Salt Creek and there had many startling experiences. When the vote-s of the recent elec tion were being counted, we became lost in the fog of ballots and in an endeavor to get out of the deluge headed our bark up stream and found when it became light enough the fol lowing morning, that we had "gone up Salt Creek." We immediately telephoned our congratulations to our competitor for the position which we were seeking. We then turned our attention somewhat to the surround ing vicinity and found a wonderful old wooden building bearing a sign. "Dan Boone Eating House." Being hungry, we thought we would try a bite, and when the breakfast had been served we noticed it was all in one large bowl and we were invited to help ourselves, which we did and found the contents a rather meaty substance, and 'quietly asked what it was composed of, and were told it was crow. It did not taste very good, but we had to eat it or go without anything. We thought we would take a bit of pie to relieve the taste that this dish left in our mouths, and asked if it was served there. We were informed that it might be had at the republican counter. Just 901 votes to the right. That informa tion seemed to hold us for a while. We went out of the restaurant and saw sitting on a log a row of men, many of this county, and some of na tional importance, each with a shin gle and a bit of charcoal figuring Just how it happened. Just then we heard and felt some thing like the tremor of an earth quake, and saw the whole hillside begin to quiver and then quietly slide down filling the creek and the whole valley. Feirtunate, indeed, were we that we were able to make our get away before we were covered in ob livion. I am wishing to extend to the many friends who so loyally supported me in this recent election, though I had to make this trip, saying I cannot bo iiisensable to their friendship and lovalty. M. S.
