Especial TO The Herald.)

Phoebe, New, May 29.-Fire today de-
stroyed two-thirds of the town of De
Lamar. New, including the principal
business section and almost all the
residences. A thousand persons are
rendered homeless.
The loss will reach 100000, and the
insurance is about one-third of that
figure.
The fire started mysteriously in the
north end of town, and swept steadily
southwark before a high wind, despite
efforts to blow up buildings in its path.
This is the second serious fire De
Lamar has had within a few days.
1t originated at p. m. in a stOckade
in the rear of T. E. Edwards saloon,
where two drunken men had been
thrown. They have not been seen since.
The value of the saloon is 81 600.
White Pine lodging house next
burned. The loss On this was $3.50. The
Schaefer saloon and opera house fol-
lowed entailing a loss of about IS, 900.
The Eureka hotel, owned by J. Ahern,
was next, valued at $4,000, and then
came Smiths photograph gallery, val
ued at $500, and Gregory's restaurant.
The two-stOry Dupont lodging house,
valued at $500, with $4,000 insurance,
also burned.
Church Laid in Ashes.
The Episcopal church and all resi-
dences in the vicinity succumbed
The principal residences, numbering
about 100, were then reached by the
flames Their value apprOximates
$50 900.
The fire started in the north end of
the business portion of the town, and
as the wind was blowing south, each
building down Main street fell in for
destruction, until the McMuTphy saloon
was reached. There the use of powder
and buckets stayed the progress Of the
flames.
Excitement ran high, but good order
prevailed and the people worked faith
fully.
The water system was of no use, and
the one-third of the town remaining
can credit its existence to luck.
Other Buildings Lost.
Among the other buildings destroyed
were:
The Roeder stone store building,

Many Out of Work.

The Japanese missionary at Tacoma,
who makes it his business to find en-
ployment for the Japanese emigrants,
admitted to the examining board that
there are now 300 japanese in Tacoma
out of employment. Inspector Snyder
of Seattle, says there are 400 Japanese
out of work in that city.
Another thing brought out in the in
vestigation is that more than three
times as many Japanese are landed in
Victoria as are brought to the Sound
ports.
When the news reaches Japan that
fifty Japanese out of a single shipment
have been rejected in Tacoma, the next
ship that comes will likely unload the
entire lot in Victoria and let them take
chances of crossing the line in small
bodies. If they are caught they cannot
be sent back any farther than Victoria,
whereas, if they are rejected in Ia
coma, they must go back to japan.

Mystery No Longer.

Waco, Tex. July 3l.-The mystery
surrounding the double killing here on
Sunday night has been cleared up by
Duncan McLennan, ST., who, according
to his own confession, took the lives of
both Kingsbury and Duncan McLennan,
Jr. According to his statement he and
his son Duncan went to the home of
kingsbury Sunday night and entered
the room where he was sleeping. Nc
Lehman says quarrel and fight ensued
and during moments excitement and
anger he killed his son-i law, Kings
bury. He says that during the strug-
gle all became more or less con
fused, but by accident he also killed his
son, thinking he was Kingsbury. After
the tragedy McLennan hurried to his
home in the country where he spent the
night returning here Monday morning
to attend his sons funeral. He was ar
rested and later made the foregoing
statement. The motive for the killing is
said to be financial difficulties of long
standing between McLennan, ST., and
Kingsbury.

The local merchants report that they
are selling more mowers and bundles

This statement is borne out by the great
number of farmers leaving town hauling
binders and Irvine. Another thing is
noticeable that the people who come to
town do not stay long, but take their
purchases and get home as soon as pos
sible. This gives the town an empty
deserted appearance, yet our merchants
report that the volume of business is
quite large.
