Fires.
Webster Thompson's house in Clay

fire with nearly all its contents, on Mon
day of last week. The fire originated
in "a bedroom adjoining the kitchen.
The honse is being rebuilt.
Butler was the scene of an odd fire,
last Saturday evening. Two freight
cars—one used by Italians to live in,
and the other a tool car—were burn
ing on the extra track of the "Bessie''
between the Centre Ave. and Lookout
Ave. crossings, and they made a blaze
that could be seen all over the town.
The location is such that the fire com
panies conld not possibly reach them,
and a steady rain added to the novelty
of the scene. The fire originated from
a stove in the boarding car.
The Phillips Co's rig on the Bartley
heirs in Pi nn twp. took tire, yesterday
morning, p.nd was completely burned.
The fire originated in the engine room,
from a lamp,

Adelaide Thurston's supporting com

recently, Miss Thurston said: "It took
Pauline Phelps and Marion Short three
years to manuscript for
"The Girl from out Yonder," and it
took me fully as long to determine who
should assayatho various roles I feel
zure that the majority of my audiences !

In many respects the Toledo Blade is
the most remarkable weekly newspaper
published in the United States. It is
the only newspaper especially edited
for National circulation. It has had the
largest circulation for more years than
any newspaper printed in America.
Furthermore, it is the cheapest iwws
paper in the world, as will be explained
to any person who will write us for
terms. The News of the World so ar
ranged that busy people can more easily
comprehend, than by reading cumber
some columns of dailies. All current
topics made plain in each issue by
special editoral matter written from in
ception down to date. The only paper
published especially for people who do
or do not read daily newspapers, and
yet thirst for plain facts. That this
kind of a newspaper is popular, is
proven bv the fact that the Weekly
Blade now has over 1W5.000 yearly sub
and is circulated in all parts
of the U S. In addition to the news,
the Blade publishes short anil serial
stories,and many departments of matter
suited to every member of the family.
