representative met Colonel G. W. God
win of Fort Worth yesterday, who is
spending several weeks upon his stock
ranch III this county, and who was st the
ranch during the last blizzard, and has
since ridden over great deal OF his
range and adjoining stock ranches. Upon
being asked by the scribe what losses ne
sustained among his cattle owing to the
extreme cold weather he replied that
he had only seen one DEAD
animal upon his ranch. While the biz
z.rds had drawn cattle great deal, they
suffered mostly for want of water, and
had be not been upon his ranch and kept
men st the water holes breaking ice and
keeping it broken he is satisfied his stock

BAKED EONKEY.

The Strange Delfcacy Eaten by the NatlSes
of Spanish Honduras.
Washil gton Post.
In Spanish Honduras the dish of honor
is baked monkey, and sweeter meat you
could not imagine. These monkeys live
up in the branches of trees and on the
vines; their feet never touch the earth
beneath them, and they live on the choic-
est nuts and fruit. No chicken was ever
so sweet and tender as baked monkey. 1
do confess, though, that on one OF the
last occasions of my dining in Honduras
did not feel that all was well when at
the end of the meal I found I had
stuffed myself with baked lizard. OF
course, there is nothing wrong with the
lizard, except our petty preiudices. 1t
tasted splendidly, but when at last I saw
the big, scsly leg and the claw OF the liz
ard, don't think liked it.

THE FIRE RECORD.

Burning of the Elegant Residence of Frank
lin p. Randall, of Fort Wayne.
Special to the indiana polls Journal.
FIT. WAYNE, Ind. JAM "A private loss that is
a genuine public calamity was the destruction
by fire of the elegant residence of ex-Mayor
Franklin p. Randall this morning. The man
sion was perhaps most notable in the city,
and its bospitable lad made it famous for
its splendid public an rivate receptions. Vice
president Hendricks and many other of the
most distinguished Democratic statesmen of the
nation have frequently been its guests. When
one of the servants arose, at o'clock this morn
ing. she detected the odor of fire. which
soon traced to f1ue. in which it appears it had
been burning for at least an hour before. By
the time tho fire department arrived the flames
had made great progress under the roof. and
in many places not easily reached by the streams
of water which began to pour into the
richly furnished apartments. deuging the costly
carpets with muddy water foot in depth, which
from the upper stories down the stairs in a
stream an d percolated through the ceilings. Mr..
Randall was the owner of a remarkably fine col
lection of antiquities, such as ancient bibles.
made before the days of printing; odd coins of
iron, brass, gold and silver; Egyptian and Indian
curiosities. etc. This collection was saved, but
some of the books are in damaged condition.
He was also the owner of one of the finest pri-
waite collections of rare plants and flowers In the
West. They were kept in a large conservatory
at the side of the house and the spacious cellars.
The plants and flowers are almost ruined.
Among them are india rubber trees, palm. date
trees, century plants, pomegranatss orange and
lemon trees, rare cacti and others of even
greater horticultural value The news that the
Randall house was burning attracted a great
crowd of people from the fashionable quarter in
which it was situated, and those people watched
with genuine grief the unsuccessful attempts of
the fremen to save the property. The flames
grew steadily, and at length there was little left
of the famous old mansion but blackened ruins.
Mr. Randall ia local agent for the Hartford Fire
Insurance Company, and in that company car
ried a policy on his residence, but the amount
was ridiculously small His loss will be at least
$50 000 Night before last the mansion was the
scene of a brilliant New Years reception. Three
hundred guests, the society people Of the city,
crowded it's spacious apartments. It was mer-
ry gathering, but it would have been a sad one
if the guests could have known that they would
meet there no more.
