Chief Hunt thinks there 10 no doubt that the
IRE was set with the intention of burning down
the building. The loss will not exceed 800: in

The popularity Of the hre lies In the fact that
IL was started with kerosene. and In several
places. The demijohns behind the bar were
empty. The fire department was called out q

Anybody Except Clark.

HELENA, Mont, Jan. % Members
of the Legislature are becoming rest
less over the protracted balloting for
United States Senator, because the
frultless contest is delaying legisla-
ton. 1t was learned yesterday that
all of the Populists are willing to vote
for any Democrat except Clark. Two
of them are now voting for Dixon and
the third for Collins, late candidate
for Governor. Dixon, however, can
not secure the race. An effort will be
made to get Marcus Daily to consent to
the withdrawal of Dixon. If this can
be accomplished the Clark men are
ready to go to some other candidate.
There is a revival of the talk to nomi-
nate Hauser, who so magnanimously
got out of the way of Clark in the eau
Gus. Davidson, the sick member, is
expected to be in his seat, but an cleo
ton is improbable before Wednesday.

SHOT BY BANK ROBBERS.

cages in a Battle with Thieves.

Cages IN n ss8tfle WITH IhleVeS.
GREENvILLE, Texas. Jan. cav. T.
Ward was passing the First National
bank building yesterday morning and
discovered a man in the doorway and
the door open behind him. He heard
voices inside, and suspected robbery.
He passed on, intending to give an
alarm. When few steps away one
of the robbers called to him to stop, to
which he paid no attention. At an
other command to stop Ward drew
siX-shooter from his pocket and turned
on the man who was following him.
As he turned the robber fired and
ran. A pal of No. fred at Ward,
wounding him in the left thigh just
below the groin. Ward then fired on
the robbers six times Whether he hit
one or not is not known, as they
escaped. Ward fell in the street and
was soon picked up and carried to his
room, where he received medical at
tention. One bullet struck him in the
left thigh and passed through the
fieshy part; another hit him in the
right breast just below the nipple,
angling downward and outWard'
another penetrated his overcoat and
clothing and lodged in his necktie.
The bullets were thirty-eight caliber.
His wounds are painful but not fatal
When the bank was examined it
was found that the safe door was
blown to atoms and $4,000 in silver
stacked at the east door of the build
ing, but S150,OO0 in gold and currency
in the steel chest was not reached.
The robbers We're frightened away an6
only obtained $3.50. They left all Their
tools, electric batteries, etc, behind

.wcen Ward and the robbers Wards
great nerve and unusual bravery saved
his own life and the banks funds.

bodies Thrown Into a Well

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Jan. 23.-When
the North Missouri Railroad was built
a deep well was dug near Sturgeon
which was soon abandoned. Last
week the we'll was cleaned out, and
the skeletons of four men were found
in it. Some of the oldest citizens, who
were there during the war, remem-
bered three rebels who were held as
prisoners here by Major Clappers' men
in the fall of 1863. They mysteriously
disappeared and it was always be-
lieved that they had been shot and
thrown into the well. The fourth
body is supposed to be that of Amos
Judy, who disappeared in 1864 and
who was violent Unionist, and it is
thought that he was killed by Bill
Anderson's men, who raided the town
about that time. Several guns and
pistols were found. Also a tin box
containing lot of watches and fine
jewelry, probably thrown in by An
dersons men at the time of the raid

A Colored Business Woman.

Mrs. Lizzie Young, colored woman
Of jacksonville, Fla, has esta blished
quite draying business in that city.
She owns three drays and employs
from twenty to thirty more when oc-
casion requires. She pays each dray-
man ST. so a day, calling fourteen loads
a days work. At present she is en-
ployed in hauling away the sand from
the excavation on the government lot,
and SO far has sold every particle of
the sand dug out. Mrs Young knows
by face and name every drayman in
her employ. But draying is not her
only business. For six months every
year this enterprising young woman
runs an extensive wood yard at North
Springfield, and four or five teams
are kept busy delivering wood. She
sells, besides, many hundreds of dol
lars worth of pork every year, and
does a good trade in poultry and
eggs.

natives The story of their voyage as
told by the mate, is one of horrible
suffering. He said that when they
left the scene of the wreck of their
ship, the Campbell, from Port Town
send, Washington, he calculated that
Hilo was about ,, 300 miles away, and
that with care and short rations they
could make the land safely. All went
well for time, the lifeboat making.
according to his estimate, about 100
miles for each twenty-four hours. The
water gave out however, some days
before they We're found, and the scene
| became terrible one.
He and one of the sailors alone re.
/ tanned their senses. The rest became
madmen, and at the last were fight
ing, shrieking, tearing their hair and
clothes, and raving generally. The two
managed, however, to keep them from
either jumping overbo BARD or drinking
! the salt water until they became too
weak TO do So
Finally he and the sailor also gave
| out, and for two days and nights the
boat drifted in calm sea without any
effort to guide or propel her A
| friendly current carried them inshore,
or they would have all died in the
| boat.
