The Milan people were awakened from their morning slumbers between four and five o'clock Sunday morning by an alarm of fire. The fire department was out in short order. The fire was in Mrs. N. Simpson's residence, on Main st., occupied by Mr. Hollis and family who run the Milan Laundry. The loss was considerable. The building was insured for $40. The firemen extinguished the flames before the building was burned down and it was with much trouble that the adjoining buildings were kept from catching fire

It is with deep regret that we learn that Editor A. B. Smith has sold his business and anticipates leaving Milan in the near future. Mr. and Mrs. Smith are general favorites in Milan where they have resided for many years. Mrs. Smith was one of our first teachers in the Milan schools a few years ago and Mr. Smith has run a Milan paper with success for many years and greatly will they be missed at the Presbyterian church where they have both been faithful and zealous workers. Wherever they may cast heir lives in the future, good wishes and a Godspeed goes with them from a host of warm and sincere friends.
