InCendiarieS Work.

Topeka, September 16.-There was lively
fire scare at the state fair grounds. The po-
lice had arrested seven Migrants who had
climbed over the fair grounds fence and were
found sleeping in empty stalls and out of
the way places. All of the fellows were
locked up in the police station near the main
building until they could be taken into town
in the patrol wagon. While locked up the
Migrants set fire to the shed by means of
rubbish that was in the building. They then
broke out the windows and in the excitement
made their escape. The fire apparatus is
near by and was quickly pulled out. The
fire did little damage.

Cholera has landed and business in New

terror is less than usual at tins season. bus
large amounts are held out of the loan market

opportunities to buy cheaply. There has
been much talk about the pestilence a. an
excuse for the low price of breadstufs and
cotton. but the fact that enormous stocks
we're brought over from last year afford sut-
ficient reason for tho exceedingly low prices.
The receipts of wheat at the principal west
ern ports in the four days this week have
been s. 316, 1913 bushels, while the Atlantic ex-
ports have been only LOSS, 435 bushels, and
it Is not strange that the price should decline

Two people in the full enjoyment of health but three days ago are now cold in death. Tuesday morning Joseph Hounder, prosperous farmer, suddenly died of "heart dis ease.". The next day Miss Agnes Bhear, sister of Hounder's wife, died in the same manner. Hounder was buried on Thursday, but pending the in- torment of Miss Bhear letter was found, written by herself. which throws some light on the tragedy. While the letter does not own that the writer was the cause of Hounder's death, it gives directions that she be buried by his side, and shows clearly that she con- templated suicide.
 lounder had but just arisen on the morning of his death when he com plained of feeling strangely, and almost Immediately fell over, dying within an hour. The girl was at the house while he was being put in his coffin, and declared that she, too, would soon go. She was a corpse within an hour after reaching home from the funeral.
