Twenty-one were killed and fully so

About IS people fell through the roof
upon the red hot furnaces and glass watts

is feared that in addition to the deaths
already reported there will be several
more.

COAST STORM SWEPT.
Many schooners and Several Lives
Lost.


Boston, Dec 6. Another southern
storm has swept over New England and
gone the way of all such disturbances,
straight off to the northeast, and like
hundreds of its energetic predecessors
left death and destruction in its wake.
just what it accomplished in New Eng
land and particularly along the coas.
north of Boston can be summed up
follows:
Five Gloucester fishermen drowned,
coasting schooners complete wrecks,
vessels sunk, eight schooners ashore
ii others more or less injured ''''c
collision and loss of gear.
The usual amount of dam 49,
on land-buildings blown down,
graph wires Frustrated and some della
on railroads in the northern portion
through heavy SHOWS.
While the storm was very severe along
the entire New England coast, shipping
north of this point seemed to have suffer
ed more than off the south shore and
Cape Cod; in fact, no wrecks occurred on
the latter's dreaded sands.
Salem harbor proved a bad trap for
seven or eight sailing craft, while on the
rugged Maine shore We're dashed half a
dozen other coasters.
The fatality of the Mary A. Brown oc-
cured on Hampton beach not far from
the place whore the wreck of the St John
schooner Advance came ashore without
her crew, but not a man reached shore to
tell of the vain battle against the ruthless
elements.

vessels will add something more to the
storm of Dee. 4, 1900.

FAKIRs WoRK FARMERs.
Wrought Iron Range Snaps Not
Such a Bargain After ALL

Leavenworth, Kas., Nov. 1.-THE
prosperity of the Kansas farmer in the
past year brought all kinds of fakirs
and grafters into the state, all with the
purpose of parting the farmer from his
money. They had schemes innumeIable,
among which the most successful was
the wrought iron range racket.
Last September a. fakir struck Leav-
enworth county. His plan was to sell
the farmer a wrought iron range for $69,
payment to be made at the rate OF
$13. so per year. The fakir had each pur-
chaser sign what purported to be a con-
tract, with the understanding that the
first payment on the range was not to be
made until November 1, 1901. Farmers
bit right and left and were congratu-
latipg themselves on a good bargain,
when, on November /, a man calling
himself N. A. Wood came around and
demanded of each payment of the notes
for 500 payable November 1. Each
farmer attempted to explain the agree
ment they supposed they had made with
the fakir, but Wood had their signatures
to notes for 500, payable November l.
and he demanded payment, or the notes
would begin to draw per cent in
terest
The farmer could do nothing but pay
the note, but the next man who comes
their way to sell wrought iron ranges
had better take good measures to pro-
tect himself. The scheme was worked
all over the county and made the sharp
ersS a barrel of money.
