Thursday last at about four
o'clock sparks from the locomotive on
the branch road set fire to the
grass on Mrs. Brady's farm west of
the city, burning up two stacks or
her hay. The fire spread rapidly,
the wind blowing high, and John
Sissle lost a stack of hay, cattle shed,
all his straw and an apple orchard of
one hundred and fifty trees, besides
quite a number of forest trees. It
was a great wonder be didn't lose
bis barn and other buildings, which
were saved only by the quick and
bard work of the owner, assisted by
his good neighbors, Gray, Randall,
and others whose names we did not
get They say that if the fire had been
n the north side of the track nothing
could have saved all the hay, and
there is a large quantity of it, stacked
in the bottom between that and
Jacob Ernst's. This in the third
prairie fire we have beard of this
season already in this neighborhood,
caused by sparks from a locomotive.
Tfce Secret Service mC the Peat
Ofsace DefMsrtneat
Wc have just received a copy of
'The Secret Service of the Post Office
Department," by P. H. Woodward,
formerly chief of the Post Office
Detective Corps. No one man in the
Uuileri States is better qualified t
write a book ou detection iu the
Post Offico Departmeut than Mr.
Woodward, who not only has bad
fifteen years' experience iu ferreting
out robberies of the U. S. mails aud
bringing them to justice, therefore,
having a most complete knowledge
of the subject, but gives by bis bril
liant and glowing description a fasci
nation which the reader is uuable to
resist, and is compelled to follow the
words of the writer as be leads from
oue accouut to another, forgetting
the lapse of time and only stopping
when the book is finished.
As to the delightful style of the
writer is added the thorough truth'
fulness of every incident, and each
character being drawn from life as
the author came in contact with the
person described, what more can
oue ask ?
The best detectives in the United
States have been engaged in the
cases described in this book, and
while the sketches are clothed in all
the charms of romance, they rest
Irom beginning to end upon the
solid rock ot fact.
It gives a complete description of
the uiauy means ami complicated
eonliivauces ot the wil and un
scrupulous to defraud the public.
Among the most iuteiesliug cases
is the well remembered one t.t the
"Star Houle" frauds, iu which Mr.
Woodward performed the chief
part iu collecting evidence against
the conspirators and iu tryiug to
bring them to punishment.
The book is profusely illustrated
with two hundred superb i ngraviugs
made expressly tor the woik
by well kuown artists, which, to
gether with the etichautiug stj le of
the writer and the elaborate and
beautiful cover, make a lrul mag
nificent volume.
We would like to quote a few in
cidents from thiB fascinating book to
show some of the mauy methods
used by the thieves to escape detec
tion ; and also the equally ingenious
devices of the detectives, but space
forbids, and, therefore, we leave the
bookiu the hands of the readiug pub
lic, coufideut that it will have au
enormous sale, and congratulating
its reader upon the entertainment it
will afford bim as well as the knowl
edge ho will gain by it of this im
portant subject.
Mi6s L. E. Riley is now canvass
ing the city for the book, aud will
be glad to take your order. It

Our seniors congratulate them
selves over their cosy and plcasaut
quarters in their own room. For a
long time the scniois have been com
pelled to resort to all sorts or make
shifts, aud fiud quarters where they
could. They feel at borne now.
The Superiutendeut has introduced
a new feature iu the High School, in
the way of regularly organized
literary classes, which, besides their
literary work will have practical
exercises iu parliamentary practice.
This feature will supply a long felt
want in our schools. The exercises
are held each Friday at 3 o'clock
p. m. The public are cordially in
vited to attend these exercises.
The work of revision throughout
the schools is going steadily on. The
classification ot work and detail of
plan is much more regular than
might reasonably have been ex
pected. Parents aud friends are invited to
pay frequent visits to the schools and
look into the work their children are
doiug.
Mr. Brindley iu the first ward has
moved bis school to the room below
where be will be more accessible to
bis pupils and teachers. Mr. Brind
ley is doing fine work in his room.
The teachers and pupils of the
third ward building are delighted
with the improvement iu their build
ing, both iu poiut of appearance aud
comfort.
The supplementary reading re
cently adopted by the Board is well
received in most classes aud is filling
a gulf that has greatly impeded the
teachers' efforts both in readiug aud
language.
Godfrey, the contractor for the
waterworks wells at Fremont, is out
in a two-column article setting forth
his claims in regard to the. disputes
over the cause of partial failure of
the works, and says that all ho has
ever asked 'is a fair test, "not a test
made with a pump that iB defective
in any way, shape or manner aud es
pecially one that is set contrary to all
rules and directions laid down by
the manufacturers of the same." We
do not believe there will be any oc
casion for such trouble as Fremont
has had, with the Columbus water
works. Under one contractor, well
versed in machinery, everything, so
far, seems all right. The delay, on
account of the immense and unpre
cedented demand for material, has
fortunately given a good time for
digging the trenches and laying the
mains.
At the business meeting of the
Columbus Lyceum Mr. L. Phillips
was elected president, W. B. Backus
vice president, Mrs. C. A. Brindley
secretary, and Prof. Cramer treasurer.
The president was here called on for
a speech but modestly declined,
promising to do so at some subse
quent meeting. After the appoint
ment of several important committees
there was a general discussion of
business matters when the meeting
adjourned to meet again in one week
at place to be designated by executive
committee.
