BUFFALO, Dec. 15.-Fire from furnace

East Buffalo communicated with oil used
as fuel and caused terrible explosion and
fire at 2:10 Monday morning, which re-

Campbell. The man was frightfully

The flames attacked the engine room and
communicated with the machine shop,
both of which were destroyed. The loss is
about $4,000 Superintendent Warren
said that so far as he could learn Campbell
started the fire under the boilers and failed
to light the fuel properly. Some of the
oil got on to his clothes and in an instant
he was mass of flames. He rushed out
leaving the oil running, which fired and
caused the explosion. Campbell sat down
on the outer steps all ablaze, and was
burned to death without apparently max

A difficulty occurred near the Ark on
Monday evening. The trouble grew out
of the issuing of a subpoena by County
Attorney Madison for Nelson Wright,
in which the latter was summoned to ap-
pear as witness in a liquor case. 1t is
claimed by Wright that the county at
torney had promised not to modest him,
provided he did not engage IN the liquor
business, and the latter claimed that the
contract was broken in summoning him
as witness As his name was handed
in to the county attorney the latter had
the subpoena issued. Meeting Linn near
the Ark Monday evening, Wright re-
monstrated with him for issuing the SUBJ
poena. Madison told Wright that he
was compelled to issue it, and started %
move on when Wright struck him,
knocking him down. Madison was
dazed by the blow, but as soon as he re-
covered he arose and ran into the Ark,
Wright following and again attacking
him. Sheriff Bell who was in the igh
berhood, heard the melee and as soon as
possible prevented further trouble. A
warrant was issued for Wright and Sher-
i'll Bell arrested him. The attack was
unprovoked, as Madison was perform
ing his duty as an officer IN serving the
subpoena, and it is everywhere con-
demncd. 1t is unfortunate that such
occurrences take place. even though not
frequently. for they give Dodge the
name of being what she no longer is, a
bad town.

An Old Tuner.

The following rather remarkable story
is taken from the Garden City Herald:
wv. B. Adams, an inmate of the Sol.
diers' Home at Dodge City. was in the
city on Monday, having been in Garfield
county on business the past week. In
1868 Mr.. Adams had charge of the bus
ness of the Hudson Bay Fir Company in
the Arkansas valley with headquarters at
Fl. Dodge. His business was trading
with the Usage aud Other tribes of In
dams, that frequented the plains in those
early days, when at different times troops
under Merritt Custer and Smith had
headquarters in the old Fort. He says
there was plenty of timber IL western
Kansas, and that the grass along the
river bottoms stood from two to three
feet high, while on the upland, a short
distance back from the river, not a spear
of grass or vegetation of any kind could
be seen, except probably around some
old buffalo wallew. The banks Of the
Arkansas river in those days were from
eight to fifteen feet high, and that this
water course then carried an immense
volume of water; IN fact of sufficient
depth to permit the passage of large
trading bosts and vessels to ply between
Fit. Dodge and Mississippi river points.
He gave graphic description of the
sinking of the Little Giant an eighty
feet stern whe el trading vessel, in the
waters of the Arkansas, short distance
above Fort Dodge
