!. J. Clough!ey's Home De-
stroyed BY Fire.

Yesterday morning at about
O'Clock our citizens were suddenly
awakened BY the firing Of guns,
whistling Of locomotives and ring
ing Of bells, which readily suggest
ed fire. II was not long until
many people were at the scene /,
the home of ~. Cloughley, the
~, X. u t. railroad agent, second
door north OF the Excelsior laun-
dry. The fire originated from a
defective flue, and burned a part
OF the roof off before Mr.. Cloughley
and family, who were nearly suffo-
Gated by the smoke, were awak
ened. The family hadn't more
than time enough to dress and es-
cape with their lives, consequently
little save sewing machine
and few chairs, etc., were car
ried out, although the crowd made
a heroic effort to save the furnish.
ings. The house, which was the
property of John Weaver, was re-
duced to ashes in a very short
time. 1t was valued at $3.50 and
was insured for $500. Mr.. Clough-
ley's loss is quite heavy. His
household goods were valued at
81 200, with $500 insurance.
Miss Florence Harmon, Mrs.
Frank Slaughter and Mrs.A E Ball
Mrs. Cloughley's sisters, all lost
goodly amount of clothing.
Mr.. Cloughley is very thankful
that tn, family escaped without
any serious sickness, as his moth
er-in-law, Mrs. Harmon, had been
confn ed to her bed for day or SO
and it was feared that moving her
would be detrimental to her health.
Mr.. Cloughley says his little boys
clothing was all destroyed, and he
had to get out and buy suit for
the little fellow as soon as day |
dawned. Not more than two
ago Mr.. Ball, Mr.. Clough-
ley's brother-in-law, had his house
at Wagner DESTROYED by fire. Mr..
Cloughley feels very kindly tow
ards those who responded to the.
alarm and tried to save his house
