Doris , the adopted daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Sherman , died of dropsy Monday , Jan. 29 , 1906 , after a lingering illness of several weeks , during which time she grew steadily worse despite every care that loving hands could bestow. The funeral was held at the'home on Cherry St. , Tuesday afternoon , conducted by the Rev. J.W. . Morgan of the Presbyterian church , and the remains interred in Mount Hope cemetery.

The church was well filled with people. "RevivaT meetings are being held this week at the Presbyterian church by Rev. Morgan , assisted by Dr. Caldwell. Everybody is invited to attend these meetings. Dr. Caldwell is a forceful speak er and everybody should hear him. A fire occurred about 2 o'clock Wednesday morning in the build ing occupied by Geo. W. Miller and wife and owned by H. M. Cramer , which nearly destroyed the building. When first discov ered it was burning between the partions and in the roof. The fire department was hurriedly brought out and the fire extinguished but the fire had burned through the roof and about half consumed the building. The cause of the fire is supposed to be a defective flue or mice and matches. The house hold goods , though damaged , were saved with the exception of a few small articles. There was no in surance on either building or con tents. Mr. and Mrs. Miller have moved into Sam Imes5 house. SCHOOL NOTES. By 1 Margarete Quigley. i Clara Dunham.
