Monmouth township boasts of two people who have a striking resemblance of two persons of national repute: one is Mr. Wallace Zirkle, the jolly groceryman of Richland, who is an exact image of W. J. Bryan; the other is Miss Ellen Bush of Watson, who is the very picture of Mrs. Grover Cleveland at the time of her marriage.

The carpenters and the painters are pushing the work on the Zirkle building. The shelving, which by the way is very pretty and strictly up-to-date, is being put in, and the lighting aparatus is being carefully arranged and connected. We predict this will be one of the finest and most up-to-date stores in the county, run by as gentlemanly proprietors and as honest and accommodating clerks as can be found anywhere. Watch their smoke.

Zirkle Brothers, big merchants in South Haven, who were burned out last fall, had an "opening" today and Glaman's orchestra went down to furnish the music.

While working with the lights in the store Wednesday evening Wallace Zirkle narrowly escaped being badly burned. The gas ran all over one of his hands and quickly ignited. Wallace proved himself equal to the emergency and quicker'n a cat can wink its eye grabbed a cloth and smothered the flames. A little more and his clothing would have caught fire. Dr. Hoke dressed his hand and it's almost well. That's all.
