Methodists Will 'Build
We have viewed the well
drawn plans, by Rev. Frye, of
Cashion's new Methodist church
building to be erected in the
near future, ft will be one of
the largest buildings in town, a
frame, to cost over $1,000. It
is a much needed building. Mr.
Prye's plans are very good. A
raised lloor, but sloping down
ward toward the pulpit will
be nicely arranged with about
$jJ00 worth of modern style of
'seats with compound curved
backs. Each of the window
'..panes will be composed oi U
1 sections of glass, of different
colors. There will be a separ-
ate room for Sunday school
worK. The church will be lo-
cated just west of the Metho-
dist parsonage.

flection of fire in her rooms.
She spread the alarm to other
I parties who rang bells and shot
guns, arousing the citizens, who
rallied forth with buckets to

fore any one had seen it, and in
a few minutes the roof had fall-
en in, malting it impossible to
save anything there. The fact
that Mr. Arky's store was about
-,0 feet north saved it from the
flames, although those who
were on the roof of his build-
ing fought hard to keep it from
blazing. Th.ere.was little wind
which was another good thing.
