A musical benefit by Miss Mable Dewey and Mrs. Lucy Anderson is planned for Epworth League with proceeds for a new piano, plus sales for Innes and his Band subscription signups.

Night Watch Prevents Blaze at Eddy and Howe Laundry
Night watchman Hugh Teeter spotted a brisk fire in a coal bin at the Eddy and Howe laundry on the east side of the square Saturday at 11 30 PM. He warned that left unchecked the flames could have burned under the laundry back rooms. The boiler attendant had arranged the coals away from fuel, but it appears someone disturbed the setup with a hoe after. No injuries reported and fire contained. The Globe notes local notices about Rev J E B VanWinkle and social work for destitute children, plus updates on Hon and Mrs Stuckslager of Lisbon.
