frequent firing by concealed natives

THREE FIREMEN KILLED.
They Were Buried Under Falling Debris
of Burned Building.

At o'clock Friday morning while
a dozen fremen were at work in the
ruins of the big store of the Emerson

was burned out the night before, a
mass of iron and stone crashed down

the shouts of their comrades, but the
unfortunates undoubtedly met death
by sufocation. Five other fremen
were injured, two seriously.
