j Diatruotive Flames in Duahore.
| About 8:30 p. m. on Monday evening
fire was discovered in the basement of L.
S. Burcli & Go's, large steam flouring mill
at Duahore. The flames had made but
little progress when discovered but owinp
to the Hre being in an almoat inaccessi
ble part of the mill nothing could be done
to save the property, which with the
steam sawmill adjoining, also the proper
ty of L. S. Burch & Co., was totally de
stroyed, together with the contents, about
one thousand bushela of corn, thirty
barrels of flour, about two hundred bush
els of grain, belonging to customers, and
other smaller items, the large circulai
saw and belts beiug saved, also the books,
pa pere, and etc. from the ofliee, L. E.
Wells having a very narrow escape whilt
getting them.
With hard work the foundry directly
opposite was saved, also all the lurabei
and house in the immediate vicinity, al
though all were on fire at different times.
The fire originated it is supposed from
sparks from the smoke stack as this is the
third time fire has broken out in nearly
(lie same place. The loss will reach about
ten thousand dollars, fully covered by
insurance.

lung lorce to fully sustain his reputation
us un orator of force and language. Huth

Index ol Prosperity.
I bat the prosperity following the in- i
Auction into offices of the present Repub- j
lican National Administration was not 1
merely a temporary improvement mo
mentarilv stimulated hy a change of poli
cies is conclusively proven by the contin
uous grow h of the corporation business
transacted by the State Department. '
From month to month since McKinlevV !
inauguration and notably since the pas- |
sage of the Dingley Tarift Law the cor
' Orations and idle capital has sought in- !
vestment in new enterprises, Comparison* i
lave from time to lime been made and '
some of them are startling in result. The j
business for February 18'J8 when contpar- j
villi February 1*97 is no exception to th< '
:eneral rule. During the month of Feb
ruary just passed the capital represented
>ty new corporation chartered amounted
o (5, 924,00(1,00) while for the samt
period in 1897 the amount was only (2,
734,000, 00) an increase of ($3, 190,000.
00) or more than one hundred per cent.
During February 1898 existing corpora
tions increased their capital and bonds to
he amount of ($32, 708, 000, 00) and for
February 1397 the amount was ($3, '23,
<>00,00) an increase of ($28, 9X5, 0C0,00)
or nearly nine hundred per cent. The
business for the first week in March was
unusually heavy.
