Charlie Moss Once More.

Not the lost Charlie Ross, but the
Charlie Ross of unsavory memory, has
once more come to the surface. 1t ap-
pears that the so-called Charlie Ross,
who once lived here, was the owner OF
some property at Jesseville near Iron
wood, but which had long been vacant,
Ross himself having removed TO Hurley.
Lately mau named Henry Lensol ap
Feared at Jesseville and opened out what
he called a candy shop in one of Ross
buildings, the upper rooms being occu-
pied by John Romola and somehow the
people were suspicious OF the man and
therefore we're not at all surprised when
early on the morning of Thursday, the
II inst. a fire broke out in the building
and it was with the greatest difficulty
the Romola family we're saved. The peo-
pie were so incensed that the marshal
had great difficulty in saving the fellow
from being killed. Alter he had. IA he
thought, quieted the people Marsha.
Jeffrey started for home, but had not
proceeded tar when the firemen shouted
for him to return; upon doing so he found
the people were attempting to throw
Lensol into the burning building. The
marshal eventually got him away and
lodged him in gaol for safe keeping, when
the fellow ackno wledged Charlie Ross
had employed him to fire the buildings,
which with the saloon fixtures wers in
sured for 81 400. promising to pay him
5000 for the job, as Ross was DESTROYS OF
procuring the money to go wet with.
Charlie Ross was therefore arrested and
is now lodged in Bessemer gaol.

balance, fell from the top OF the building
to the ground distance OF 80 feet.
He landed on his right shoulder and
arm and lay senseless on the ground.
Some of his comrades saw the accident
and FASTENED to his aid. The injured
man was carriedinto the hospit al ward in
the central school building, a hundred
feet away, and his hurts were speedily
attended to. It was found that his in
juries were very serious and extremely
painfal. His arm was broken in several
places. He was also badly bruised about
