rLEMMING,s HOUSE BURNED.

Fire broke out in the dwelling house
OF 7. Y. tlemming, who lives on
PieasAit street, south oi Ann Street, al
a very early hour Monday morning
and was totally consumed. When the
alarm was given the fire department
made a run to the spot and strung their
hose from the nearest hydrant, but no
water responded when an attempt
was made to turn it on. The mains
were frozen up so all the fire laddies
had to do was to assist in saving the
contents OF the house so far as possible
and keep the flames off the next house
adjoining. Mr.. Potter's house received
scorching and had there been the
least bit OF wind blowing toward it the
dwelling would have gone down also.
Mr.. Flemming's house was insured
for 5000 and the contents for S400 in
w. f. Sandell's agency.

difference of opinion-for, because OF

having many near and dear ones laid
to rest. To me, the church of my
adoption is even more sacred than my

A FATAL ICE GORGE
Causes the Yellowstone River to
Overflow at Glendive, Mont,
TWELVE ARE PROBABLY LOST.

The List OF Known Dead Reaches
Four, While James sullivan, wife
and six Children Are Missing and
Were Probably swept Away.
Glendive, Mont, April 10.-An ice
gorge in the Yellowstone river at this
point caused that stream to overflow
Saturday night, drowning four per-
sons, while eight more are missing
and are undoubtedly dead. Three
spans of the steel bridge are washed
out, causing a loss of 900; the
Northern Pacific tracks are inundated
and possibly washed away for some
distance, and the loss to live stock by
drowning will involve large sum.
The known dead are: Mrs. r. w.
Snyder, wife of a rancher: Miss Nellie
Reagan, her niece; Miss Rose wy
becht, visitor to the Snyder ranch;
Eugene f. O'Connor. The missing
are James Sullivan, his wife and six
children.
The ice began moving at $3.50 in the
evening, and at $50 IL formed a gorge.
The Snyder family, noticing the
gorge, started for the Northern Pacific
X
before they covered half the distance
the water was waist deep and they
took refuge in a tree. OConnor was
the first to be washed from the tree,
Mrs. Snyder the second and Miss wy
becht third. A huge piece of ice
struck the tree and broke it in two,
carrying off Miss Reagan. The family
of James Sullivan were evidently swept
away by the overflow, as no trace OF
them can be found.
The ice gorges have made raging
torrents out of the most of the rivers
of the state, in many cases breaking
all records. At Miles City the ice jam
ed at the mouth of Tongue river, fore
ing the water back until the entire
south side of the city was under water.
Seventy-five houses had to be aban-
doned, the people having to be rescued
in boats, so quick was the rise of
water. Later in the afternoon the
water broke over the track into Main
street, which ran a torrent. Dynamite
has been used and it is supposed that
the wash is all over. The loss cannot
yet be estimated.
Washout are reported all along the
Northern Pacific, and passenger trains
are stalled all along the line, but the
details are slow in coming in.
