>' One of the best resolutions that wo
eon make to start out with is to "re>r
solve not to worry". Let us endeavor
to make lifo pleasant for those aronud
us as well as for ourselves, let us
a tuke life as it comos and get the best
|e out of it we can; but never worry
about something over which wo have
|. no control. To worry over the unavoidable,
is to weaken your powers
,f of endurance when the timo of trouble
arrives.

! New School District Established.
Tho citizens of West Springs have
0 secured a school district for that
township. The matter was left to a
,f vote of the citizens c>f the township,
(l I which will take place on the 15th
' I inst. That the school district, is ?n
1 assured thing was ascertained by Mr.
L. F. Stanford, who mado a careful
r. canvass of the citizens, and found
In only two citizens in ti?e township
Who offered any opposition. Mr.
t Stanford has been earnestly working
'e for this for some time. The owners
ft of the West Springs academy propis
erty, of which Mr. Stanford owns the
in greater share, propose to deed the
property to the trustees for school
purposes. A two mill tax will be
levied for the schools, and they will
be run ubout eight months. It was
i.. mainly through Mr. (I. T. Hyatt,
and Mr. H. 0. Lawson, members of
. the board, that the citizens secured
the privilege of an election upon the
V question. The school trustee? for
b the uew district will also be chosen

The Fire Alarm*
Our (own was thrown into excite
merit by the alarm of lire last Friday
night about 8 o'clock. A couple of
policemen woro walking down street,
when they noticed smoke issuing from
t lie ventilators on the pavement in
front of PureoU's store. Thoy looked
through the glass and saw that the
re: r of the store was tilled with
smoke. They decided that the fno
was in the cellar, and ran around to
the rear and after repeated cTTorts
succeeded in breaking in tho cellar
door, which seemed to bo held shut
by 8omo kind of a prop on the inside,
The do-?r had a padlock upon tHo outside.
bub tho staple hoi.line this hud
been r!r.i\v:i and Wis found o ? the
irr.>urd inside the c? liar. Bags had
I) ? it |il,icod over I he cellar windows
t ? hiue the bh.ze until ib got in its
line \r".It The Hi e bug then prolully
set atr.ip prop to slide* down
into pni.ition when lie pulled the door
shut from the outside. The fire was
ah.'ut the venter of-thc cellar. Jirokn
t i. ces of goods by.vs h;id been piled
around one of the rich wood uprights
supporting the floor, and the match
app!ijd. The flair.es had already ran
up the column and were eating their
way along the beam and into the
floor when discovered. An hour
later it would have been beyond control.
v The fire was put out with little
trouble. The colored tiremen were
promptly on hand, but as upon the
occasion of the fire in poverty ITut,
there was no hydrant wrench to bo*
had. This kind of thing should not
be allowed to occur again.
Mr. Pureell had just closed up his
store and had gone with Ins clerks
over to the K. of P. banquet at the
hotel, lie had left his safe open
with a hundred or so dollur.s in it and
all his books, expecting to return
after the banquet and cmh up. The
lire, had it succeeded, would have
hit him a heavy blow.
Mr. Pureell says he has no enemy
that he is aware of aud cannot imagine
who would want to burn him
out,
