LIVERY STABLE OF WALTER ELLY
BURNED LAST NIGHT.
BONDS CARRY AT ELECTION
The City Votes $10,000 for the Purpose
of Erecting a City Hall Grief In
the Town Over the Fire nnd Rejoic
ing Over the Result of Election.
Madison , Nob. , Juno C. Special to
Tlio News : In the biggest lire Madi
son has experienced for years , tlio
largo llvory Htalilo of Walter Elly
burned to the ground last night. The
loss Is about | 3,000 ; Insurance , $1,500.
The flro started at about 10 o'clock
In the blR livery on Pearl street and
for a tlino It looked as though It might
not bo confined to that building.
Fanned by a high southeast wind , the
Unmet ! raged furiously and sparks
were carried half way across the town.
Owing to the Inflammable nature of
the building and Its contents , It was
soon plain that the stable was doomed ,
although the volunteer llromen worked
heroically to save It.
All the horses and buggies In the
building were taken out In llmo to
save thorn , but the harness of the es
tablishment wcro all consumed.
The house of Otto Undorborg , which
Is very close to the stable , was In Im
minent danger of destruction , but the
llroinon succeeded In saving It. al
though It was considerably damaged
by flro and water.
The origin of the llro Is unknown.
Last night's flre demonstrated that
Madison has one of the best volunteer
departments In the state. The boys
worked furiously and It Is a matter
for congratulation this morning that
the llames wcro conllncd to the buildIng -
Ing In which they started.
BOND ELECTION CARRIES.
Madison Votes to Erect a $10,000 City
Hall.
Madison , Neb. , June C. Special to
The News : At the Special election
held In Madison yesterday the city
voted bonds In the amount of $10,000
for the purpose of erecting a city
hall , and there Is great rejoicing over
the result. The vote stood 253 votes
for and 59 against the proposition.
At the previous election , the bonds
failed to carry by a single vote , but
public opinion rapidly changed there
after with the above result.
The site has not yet been definitely
selected but In all probability the
structure will be erected on the north
west corner of Third street and Lin
coln avenue , on a lot now owned by
Thomas O'Shea. The elty also has
an option on what Is known as the
Hutchison property on Third street ,
which Is half a block nearer the heart
of the city.
The flro department were especially
pleased over the result , so much so
that about dusk last evening they rang
the flro bell and made a demonstra
tion on the streets. The fact Is that
the old quarters have long been In a
dilapidated condition nnd an unfit
place In which to properly store and
take care of the apparatus. Plans and
specifications for the new building are
drawn and operations will commence
as soon as the site is purchased.
MANY HOMESEEKERS ENROUTE.
Tuesday Noon Trains Crowded With
People Bound for the West.
All the trains that passed through
Norfolk Tuesday noon were loaded to
their fullest capacity , this being Home-
seokcrs' day on the railroads , which
gave rates that attracted crowds. It
Is estimated that fully a hundred ex
tra passengers wore on the Honosteol
train , people attracted by the lands
of Gregory and Lyman counties , S. D.
Some wore going to Boncsteol and
then drlvo to Pierre , west of which
place a now country Is being opened
up by the building of the Northwest
ern to Rapid City. Thcro was also
a good crowd bound for the western
part of the state , particularly Cherry
and Chase counties. This Is a season
of the year when the crops have nil
heen planted , nnd between seed time
and harvest there Is an opportunity
for farmers to Investigate the pros
pects of a now country. Cheap rates
on the railroads will undoubtedly do
much toward the settlement of the
country west of hero.
Mlsslonfest.
Plans are being perfected for the
holding of a mlsslonfest by St. Paul's
Lutheran church on July 1. The place
and special features have not us yet
be6n decided upon.

CONSTRUCTION TO CONTINUE.
Northwestern Will Not Stop Building
at Shoshonl.
Slioshonl , Wyo. , Juno C. The Northwestern -
western will soon lot the contract for
the further extension of Its track west
100 miles through the Hhoshona or
Wind Hlvor reservation , which Is to
bo thrown opnn to settlement August
15 next. The line will crons the Dig
Horn river west of Shoshonl and con-
tlniio duo west across the big bench
lying between Wind river and Muddy
creek. It will run along this bench
for about sixty miles , entering the
Wind rlvor valley near the mouth of
Crow creek. At the western terminal
of the line , near the present slto of
Duhols , another town will ho startod.
The region through which this extension -
tension Is to run will ho one of the
rlehoHt agricultural and mining dis
tricts In the state , nnd there Is no
doubt that It will do an Immense busi
ness. The bench along which It IB to
run for over Ilfty miles Is a slight as
cent to the west , without a break era
a ridge , and will need little If any
grading.
The southern extension of the North-
western's line toward Lander In now

the finishing of ( his line the extension
west from this point , and the comple
tion of the Burlington from Worland
and Thermopolls on south through

railroad center of the state.

MANY NEW CEMENT WALKS.
Construction Going On In All Parto
of Town.
The building of cement walks Is
nicely started again and If Slieol Com
missioner Hlchoy's estimates are anywhere -
where near correct there will ho twlco
IIH many feet of this class of walk laid
this year as there were last , and that
was the most extensive season for ce
ment walk construction that Norfolk
has over fcon. "Hy the llmo cold
weather comes , " said the commission
er , "tho only board walks left In town
will bo IhoRo In extra good condition
and they will not be numerous. " The
city administration has been patrlcu-
larly lonlenl. In the matter of ordering
permanent walks built , allowing hoard
walks to remain In service as long aa
they did not become absolutely dan
gerous , but the tlino has como when
practically all these old hoard affairs
have become worn out and will hnvo
to bo replaced with cither brick or co-
ment.
The ordinance provides that walks
may ho constructed of either brick or
cement , but experience has proven
that cement Is ( bo only practical ma
terial to use. When correctly con
structed cement walks will last a Hfo
time , while walks made of brick soon
begin to settle unevenly and get out
of shape. A number of the brick walks
that were laid no longer ago than
three or four years are now In such
bad condition that they must bo re
built. Many owners are voluntarily
doing this but In a number of cases It
will ho necessary for the council to
condemn the brick walks and order
them replaced with now ones.
