"A Horrible DtaIh.

Atabout nine O'clock last Friday
evening, the stucture known as Lake
county jail, situated at this place, was
discovered to be on fire. An alarm
was ut once given. and nearly every
person in the village was SOON on the
spot, equipped with pals, and worked
hard carrying and throwing water and
snow into the blazing interior of the
building; bat the fire had gained such
headway before discovery that all eff
forts to quench 1t were fruitless, until
the jail was in ruined condition.
The citizens had not been long at the
spot before they were made aware OF
the awful fact u human being Ind per-
ished and that the remains were then
In the burning building. The unfortu-
nate was named T. ID. Brown, and had
been arrested by Sheriff Grant, for
drunkenness and disorderly conduct,
and lodged In one of the cells, only
about hall an hour previous. AS near
as we can loarn, the man was dead, or
In an asphyXiated state, befoie any
person reached the Jail, as no cries were
heard. The flames filled the main part,
their horrid tongues leaping fiercely
out of the small grated windows. The
ment the alarm was given, and inn
niediately ran down and unlocked the
jail door; but no one could enter the
hell of. fire that ragged within, and
rushedout of the open door; gaining
fresh volume every instant. 1t was
only by almost superhuman exertion
that the citizens were enabled to put
out the fire In the main room, SO that
S. +. Dickens, A. III. Green and DIR. q.
w. Manwaren managed to reach the
cell door, open it and remove the body;
which was placed upon board, face
downward, as it lay in the cell, and
carried out into the Jail yard. The re-
mains presented "a terrible sight. The
hands were thrown up on either SIDE Of
and above thehead; one of them being
charred so that the homes protrudea.
The flesh OH the inside Of the wrists
was torn, as IL done by the poor victim
in the awful struggle preceding insen-
sibility. The hair was nearly or quite
all burned of; the flesh OH his face be-
ing roasted so that the skin would peel
Off ut subsequent attempt to cleanse the
features in preparation of the body for
tlsegrsvc. One Of the limbs was drawn
MP slightly.
70 give our readers clearer idea Of
the affair, VIC have prepared tie follow
n'g diaeIn.m Of the g-cund plan Of inc
interior of the Jail, which was built of
pine plank, 2x6 and S inches, laid one
upon anOther, and thoroughly spiked;
the outside dimensions of the building
being some twenty feet square, and
eight feet high. The yard was enclosed
with tight, high fence ofheavy plank,
and was, if possible, u greater piece of
folly than the so-called Jail, as it had
an effect of preventing outsiders from
readily hearing cries ofdistrcss from in-
mates of the building, and from dis
covering fire:
