by Prof. A. T. Smitten at Ruthmcl and
owned by the Reynoldsvlllo Building
and Loan Assocation, wus totally de
stroyed hy fire at 3.30 A. M. Monday.
The origin of tho firo is unknown, but
the supposition Is that a glass lamp
that was burning in the hall exploded.
Tho fire had such headway when dis
covered that the family barely escaped
with thoir lives, some of them escaped
with only their night clothes on. Only
two or three ploces of household goods
were saved from the flames. Tho build
ing was Insured but tho household goods
were not Insured.

tier, was in Reynoldsvllle several
days last week looking after tho J la li
ner's circulation at this place. He re
mained In town over Sunday and filled
the Presbyterian pulpit. Dr. Gllson
evidently believes In short sermons dur
ing warm weather, and we have no ob
jections to raise cither.' It took him
twenty minutes to dot Ivor his morning
sermon and thirteen minutes to deltver
his evening sermon. Thirteen minutes
Is a trifle short, but twenty-five minutes,
or thirty at tbe extreme, Is long enough
sermon for warm weather.
