On Saturday afternoon Mrs.
| Dolliger. who resides near Lynn
Lake was victim of destructive
prairie fire. The fire ran into the
barn and Mrs. d., and her mother
went from the house to release the
stock. While engaged in this effort
the old lady became suffcated and
sank to the ground. Seeing her
mothers condition Mrs. Dolligar
went to her assistance snd by al
most superhuman exertion succeed
ed in getting fer out of the burning
building, but alas, burned and
blackened corpse. In the effort to
save her mother Mrs. Dolliger was
badly, if not seriously burned. The
fire, meantime, had passed ON to
the house and Utterly wiped it out
of existence. The house, barn,
stock and all is total loss. Mrs.
d., at this writing, is in a prccari-
Gus situation with the chances
against her surviving the holocaust
of flames through which she has
passed.
