Wetzel near st. Luke was destroyed by
fire on Saturday of last week with its
entire contents including grain, hay and
farming implements. A straw stack near
tho barn was also burned. The loss il
estimated at between $500 and $500. The
fire was caused by little son of Mr.
Wetzel, who was striking some matches
on a stone near the straw stack when one
Of the heads flew into the straw. 1t soon
ignlied and owing to the dry condition OF
the straw and the hard wind which wa'
blowing at the time the stack before any
one was aware was a mass Of flames. The
fire rapidly communicated with the barr
and it too was consumed before the neigh
bors could arrive and render any sssis
lance. At the time Of the fire Mr.. Wetze
was confined to the house, which is SIT
uated near by, in the last stages Of con
