Fire In Chesterfield.

Fire broke out of the roof of the L of
William Holman's house about II 80 Sat-
urday forenoon, and the house, two large
sheds packed with wood, large barn full
of hay, hen house and corn barn filled with
corn and other grain, were consumed.
Only small part of the household goods
were saved, and practically everything in
the barn was burned. A large amount of
provisions we're lost, including barrel of
sugar brought home the previous day.
Two little girls, Avis Barrett and Helen
Rice, ran to the village and gave the alarm.
Many citizens responded, but were power
less to save the buildings, which we're &C.
cupied by Mr. Holman, his son Frank and
wife and Mr. Pratt, who has made his
home with them for several years. The
loss is probably more than $4,000, with
some insurance on the buildings, but none
on contents. Barns on the opposite side
of the road were burned about four years
ago and the barn built to replace them
still remains. Mr.. Holman will occupy
his sons house on the hill, for the present

The steamer Congesta of the Anchor
line, from Buffalo, ran into a crib l IL
mile from the entrance to the harbor at
Chicago yesterday. A great hole was
stove In the bow and the boat began to fill
fast, but the captain ordered all steam on
and attempted to run for the harbor. The
firemen we're soon driven out. Great
clouds of steam poured from the hold, but
the boilers did not explode. When the
boat settled in the mud the water did not
reach the upper deck and the crew were
safe. 1t is expected that the loss on the
cargo alone will amount to 500, 900.

ROMANCE OF the FrFTrEs.
Hauling Dead Indians by the Cord
Near La Junfa i'm Early Days

When Colonel William Bent was run
ming his old fort on the Arkansas
river an Indian trading post. 1T was
the custom for the Ute Indians to
make trips down from the mountains
to the buffalo country along the
Arkansas river. although they seldom
did SO without being run out of the
country by their enemies, the Chey-
ennes and Arapahoes- On one occa-
sion, in the fifties. a large body of
Ctes had been down on their annual
hunt, but discovering that very large
force of their enemies were moving
on them. they started to return to the
mountains Being pressed too closely
on their retreat up the river they were
compelled to make stand and give
the plains Indians a fight which &C.
CURED at the Point of Rocks above
where the town of La Junta is now To-
Gated.
The Utes had gotten a good posi-
ton and when the Cheyennes and Ar
apahoes charged they were slaugh-
tered, and in short time had to re-
treat down the river. The next morn
ing the plain Indians went to Colonel
Bent and requested him to have their
dead brought down to his fort for
burial. The only person that could
be spared about the fort was one Jake,
a lank MissOurian, who had been haul
DTe WOOd TO the IOTC LOT some
time. The colonel told Jake to take
the team and load up the dead injuns
and haul them into camp. The
weather being very cold when Jake ar
rived on the battle ground, the In
dams were frozen stiff. There were
just an even dozen red men for Jake
to haul, but he managed to get them
all in the wagon by setting up pieces
of wood on the sides to keep them
from falling out.
The load wars placed pretty well to-
ward the back part of the wagon
leaving room in the front for Jake to
do the driving. All went along well
until dark came on, then Jake began
thinking about some of the ghost
stories he had heard when a boy and
1T made him a little nervous. Com
ing to a short but very steep grade
in the road he did not take the pre-
caution to slacken his pace, and put
ting on his brake all of sudden his
load slid forward top of him and
it was some time before he could ex-
tricate himself and bring the team to
a standstil1. When he reached the fort
he informed the colonel that he would
not undertake any more jobs of that
sort, or. he put it, hauling dead
injuns by the cord on a dark night
'aint no business for sinner like me-"

Over his "pince-nez" he eyed the other

Prof George Gunton. of New York,
new phase of old problem, the
problem of free industrial enterprise
Since the dawn of the factory sys-
tenn and the use of steam, state reg
ulation of industry has grown more
and more incompatible with pro-
gress- Notwithstanding that every
body knows that the marvellous pro-
gress of the last three-quarters of
century is mainly due to the introduce
ton of improved methods of industry,
every improvement since WAITS spin
ming frame and Hargreave's spinning
jenny has had to fight its way against
the popular prejudice of the time
The hand-loom weavers marched
through England and broke the power
looms. Hargreaves. Arkwright and
Crompton were driven from their
homes for inventing new methods of
spinning.
