A MORNING BLAZE.
The Dwelling House of Joseph Ia
police, West Side, Destroyed
BY Fire.

A little before o'clock this morn
ing an alarm of fire was given from
the West Side. 1t proved to be the
dwelling house of Joseph Lapolice
situated near the old school house
The fire department came out
promptly but as the building was
quite distance away the fire had a
good Roadway before the arrival OF
the department, and as it was about
One-half mile from the nearest n.y.
drant, there was little else to do but
to let it burn.
The house is valued at about $500
and was insured with George La
Fond in the Germania Fire Insur-
ance company of New York City, for
$500. There was no insurance on the
household goods, but they were
nearly all saved
The fire caught upstairs and from
an oil lamp which is thought to have
exploded.
The chemical engine was not take
en- out, A new coat of paint had
just been put on it and as the fire
had gotten such a start by it being
far away, it was thought there was
no need to take it out. The building
was isolated from others, hence there
was no danger at any time Of the
fire extending.

RECOVERED HIS CHILD.
Carl Weiss of Clay County Sued for
His Daughter and Took Her
Home.

There was case before Justice
Shaw yesterday afternoon as court
commissioner in which Carl Weiss OF
Muscoda, Clay county, sought to re-
cover his child who has been living
at Rich Prairie in the families of G.
Leonhart and Martin Epla Briefly
stated the case is this: Carl Weiss
was divorced from his wife some
years ago, and she afterwards mar
ried G. Leonhart of Rich Prairie
The daughter OF the divorced couple.
who is now about - years of age,
has been living there with her
mother and an older sister who mar
ried Martin Epla. But the mother
died last January, and after her death
Weiss thought he ought to have the
custody of his child, as he is a pros
porous farmer and amply able to
take care Of her. The point as to the
custody of the child was hotly con-
tested yesterday afternoon, but last
evening the court commissioner de-
cided to give the father the care Of
his child, and he left this morning
with her for his home. The girl
rather indicated that she would pre-
fer to remain at Rich Prairie but did
not seriously object to going with
her father. The commissioner told
her that if he did not treat her prop
erly she might return, as action
could be taken by which she might
be adopted by the Leonhart family
at Rich Prairie. A. P. Blanchard
appeared for Weiss, and the other
side was unrepresented.
