THE pIoCHE FIRE.


The publisher of the Phoebe Journal
believes that the recent fire was gotten
up for his benefit and the following is
what be has to say upon the subject:
We were burned out last night
office. type, files and everything that
was useful to us, both in the editorial
and local department. In fact we lost
everything, all was consumed. No
apology is necessary for the paper we
present this morning other than that
caused by the hand of an incendiary.
On yesterday morning, about the hour
of 3 O'Clock, while we in company
with Charles Noake, II of the en-
ployes of this office, were finishing the
work necessary TO send abroad the
Journal, we heard a noise resembling
rear door and at the same time Mr..
Noakes ran to the front. We saw the
flames arising from the adjoining and
vacant house, and spreading as rapidly
as ii blown from a lannon's mouth.
Rushing to the street the alarm was
given, and before any one could ON
10 our assistance the Journal office was
wrapt in flames aud in less thar ten
minutes the press, type and all the
material of the office were enveloped
and the last papers struck off were but
shes. A lew m before. we
saw the shadow Of a man pass by,
coming from the place where the fire
originated. We thought nothing of
tins at the time, but are now satisfied
that he lighted the match which caused
the disastrous conflagration on yes
terday morning. And from all the
facts we have now before us VIC can
not but believe that the sole aim was
to destroy our office. Whether this is
so or not, we still live, and have tele-
graphed for all the material necessary
to make the Journal what it was and
improve it in every particular. We
still live!

SHOCKING DEATH.-A sad accident,
says tho Elko Post, occurred at Carlin
last Saturday, by which a little daugh-
ter of Mrs. White lost her life. 1t
seems that the mother of the child had
placed some concentrated I've in a dish
aud poured some water over it, and
told an elder child to set it on the stove.
Instead OF putting the vessel on ths top
of the stove it was ser upon the hearth,
within EASY reach of the little fourteen
months old girl. who. III creeping
around, espied aud pariook of its con
tents. OF course it was Ike drinking
80 much liquid fire, and the fearful ef.
tects of the poisonous dose were imme-
diately apparent. She lived about
II hours, in terrible agony, when death
put an end 10 her sufierings. Her
death furnishes another illustration of
the danger of leaving harmful things
within reach Of children.
