ANOTHER DWELLING BURNED
About O'Clock Tuesday afternoon the
Dwelling Of Jacob r. Flagg on Mill
Street, Faggtown, was discovered in
flames. Only two men were in the neigh
borhood, and when they reached the
house the fra was under too great hesd-
way to be cxtinguished, Those gentle
men, together with the ladies of that vi
furniture and such other articles as came
to hand, and succeeded in saving con-
siderable portion of the sontents of the
building. Before any one could reach
the scene from town tho house was COM
plstcly enveloped in flame and ready to
fail, but some work was done to prevent
adjacent buildings from catching. Mrs.
Flagg gays the ladies other neigh borhood
did good work in saving things and Mr..
Flagg joins her in thanking them and all
others who assisted at the fire and have
since kindly extended helping hand.
The build ing was nearly new, having
been erected two years ago and was a
neat, comfortable home, well fitted up.
Everything in the second story was des-
troyed, as also nearly all the family wear
ing apparel. Unfortunately Mr.. Flagg
was absent from home when the fire oc
ourfod, he being foreman in the Ward
Mine on Oregon Gulch Mountain. The
loss is estimated at 50, 100, with an in
surance of 1850 in the North British
and Mercantile.

A PULL BAoK.-Last Wednesday af-
ternoon saddle horse belonging to John
w. Smith, of Douglas City, hitched to
an awning post in front ofJunkan's store,
became frightened and pulled back strong
enough to jerk out the post and let a sec
tion of the shed roof down with crash.
The end secured to the building held fast
and by this the roof swung around to a
;pendicular against the front of the
store closing it instantly, as it almost
completely covered the door ways. A
number of people were on the sidewalk
under the porch at the time it fell, but
fortunately all go: out of the way except
Mr.. Il. j. Conway who was struck and
knocked down by it. lie received several
