Lewis Wolf started for the World S
Fair Tuesday,
A little son of Lewis Wolford's, Fri
day morning, struck match. The
match burnt his fingers and he let it
fall into box Of shavings. The shaw
ings blazed up and set the house on
fire. Mrs. Wolford had gone to milk
the COW and Lewis was in his shop, so
the fire was not discovered for some
time AS soon as Lewis noticed it, he
and his tradesman ran in and dashed
water upon the flames and happily
succeeded in putting it out, not, how
ever, before the walls and ceiling,
which were of wood, and the doors
had been burned through. The baby
was in its crib in an adjoining room.
When taken out it was nearly smoth-
cred by the smoke, and it was quite a
while before it revived. Fortunately
the fire did not reach can of coal oil
that stood behind the kitchen door or
the house could not have been saved

the track about s o'clock, Friday, the
18th, near Millers Hill. The engine
was turned on its side on west-bound
track; one coach was down the bank
nearly in the river; the other coaches
were derailed and track torn up about
200 yards. The fireman was thrown
from the tender and that saved his
life. The engine fell with the engi-
neer's side of it up and he got out safe.
Although it blocked both tracks and
caused delay of trains both ways, it
was blessing that no lives were lost.
The tracks were partially cleared and
trains were passing around by s o clock
Saturday morning.
