The flames had such a start when discovered and the house was so far from town that nothing was saved from the house, and all of Mr. Ausman's household goods and clothing were destroyed. He had $300 insurance on the household goods, and Roe Caster, who owned the house, carried an insurance of $500. Tested Corydon Deep Well. A pumping test was applied to the deep well Monday afternoon and continued until about 1 p.

m. Tuesday, when the pump was broken. Howeer, the well withstood all tests made upon it and it seemed as strong at the end as in the beginning. The pump was down 450 feet in the hole and the water was 350 feet from the top. For over twenty hours continuous pumping at tfie rate of 20 gallons per minute, it Was impossible to exhaust or to pump the water down below the reach of the pump.

The last two hours the stroke warf increased and the output was fully thirty gallons a minute and still the well seemed perfectly strong. A sample of the water has been sent away to the state chemist for analysis. However, it is believed that it contains no Substance which will be detrimental for general pur-: poses The city council should be congratulated upon their success in, obtaining a supply of water. Work will now be pushed right along on completing our pumping station and connecting up the Times-Republican. Cholene for croup.

Holden on Retired Farmers. Last Monday was Farmers' day for the people of Clear Lake and vicinity. It was a farmers' program from early morning until late at night. Possibly five hundred farmers assembled on the exhibition ground in the morning at nine o'clock to witness the operation of a traction engine. The Hart-Parr company of Charles City and the International Harester company each had one on exhibition.

The big attraction of the day was the presence of G. P. Holden, of the agricultural college at Ames. He talked over an hour and the crowd wanted more and he gave it to them. He scored preachers of the gospel for not feeding the people on what they should have.

He believed that they commenced the wrong way. He declard that to preach corn was more sensible than to grow angel wings. Folks didn't care to have angel wings yet a bit. And then he told the retired farmers present that they had made the mistake of their lives when they moved to town. They don't make gbod citizens in cities because as a general thing they don't believe in improvements.

They would vote against every public improvement. They didn't want public libraries, they could get along without sewers and they were eternally against everything of that nature. It is because they are trained under a different atmosphere. He said they could live and be respected in their rural homes but they were not of any consequence when they moved to town. He pleaded with them to remain on the farm and get at least a respectable Republican.

At the Christian Church. A splendid audience greeted the pastor last Lord's Day morning as he presented "Iowa as a Mission Field." The choir under the direction of Dr. Woodmansee did splendid work. Several visitors were in the audience. The rain in the evening hindered the attendance, so that the audience was quite small.

The choir practice this week will be held at the home of Dr. Woodmansee on Wednesday night. The church is planning for a great rally day on the first Lord's Day in December, the occasion being the anniversary of the C. VV. B.

A noted speaker will be here for that day. Our Bible School numbered 142 last Lord's Day. Can we not hae 150? All the regular services next Lord's Day. J. S.
