BURNING OF AcKLEY DEPOT.

Tuesday morning some unknown
scoundreis fred the depot at Ackley,
and it was burned to the ground.
Whether they entered the building or
not before firing it, and plundering it,
is not known. The station agent and a
clerk were sleeping in the depot at the
time, one in the office and the other in
an adjoining room, and the first warn
ing they had OF the fire was its rear,
the flames being almost in their rooms.
The agent had barely time TO awaken
his clerk, open the safe, take out the
money, and then make his exit through
n window. Both clerk and agent lost
all their clothing, except what they
could hurriediy throw on, the latter
leaving valuable watch under his pill.

In the building We're a number of
boxes of dry goods and other merchan-
disc, a lot of stoves, fifty barrels of dried
apples, and quite quantity of miscel-
laneous articles. Also the household
goods of Blake, the former agent, now
in durance vile, which were to be ship
ped to Dubuque the next day, to be
sold for the benefit of the Express
Company.
The fire commenced at the west end
of the depot, where no stove had ever
been used. The depot, with its plat.

value of its contents can not be told at
