MANY HORSES CREMAIED
LIGHTNING BOLT STRIKES BARN
WITH A CRASH, CAUSING
TOTAL DESTRUCTION
BARN MEMS NARROW ESCAPE
Loss of Over Twenty Thousand Doll
lars Is Sustained, Which Is
Only Partially Covered
by Insurance.

WAHPETON, N. D., Aug. 10.-The most
disastrous fire that has occurred in Rich
land county for many years took place
on the Adams farm, twelve miles south
west of this city yesterday, when about
$4,000 worth Of property was consumed.
The fire originated from bolt of light
ming which struck the barn. The crash
of thunder that accompanied the stroke
awoke the farm hands, and they hur-
riedly dressed and rushed out to rescue
the 100 horses and mules that were In
the building, but the fire had made such
Roadway that 1t was impossible to get
many OF the animals out, and in q few
minutes they were smothered by the
dense smoke and died in their stalls. The
shriu neighing, almost shrieks of agony,
from the suffering animals was some
thing terrible, and the men risked their
lives more than once trying to effect
their rescue. A number of horses were
gotten out. but in their frenzy they broke
away and ran back into the burning
building.
The building burned was the mule barn
which contained all the available work
horses and mules on the farm, besides
harness, feed and about 100 tons of hay.
Three men who were sleeping in the barn
were stunned by the stroke and barely
escaped with their lives as the light
ming seemed to have spread all over
the building, and the hay burst into
flames in dozen places. The heavy rain,
almost a cloudburst, that accompanied
the storm was all that saved the sur
rounding buildings.
The horses and mules were all valu-
able animals, some being almost full
bloods. and many teams rated at $500
to $500. Sixteen grade Perchons, nine
teen common horses, thirty-one brood
mares, ffty-three mules and three saddle
horses burned to death
The barn, harness and hay was fully
insured, but Mr.. Adams will lose heavily
on the horses, which were insured at $125
each. Many of the animals were worth
twice that amount. The insurance was
carried by eight companies in the David
son and Barber agencies, and amounts to
about $4,000.
The Adams farm, owned by w. P. Adj
ans, is the biggest farm in the county
and has about eighty-fve men employed
at this season of the year. They had COM
pleted harvesting last week and were pre-
pairing to commence threshing with
four machines today. That will be de-
layed until fresh horses can be secured,
which will be only few days, as Mr..
Adams was notified and telegraphed in
reply that he had shipped sixty mules
from his farm in Odebolt, Iowa

Mrs. Nina Larson, 1880 Sixth street

company, and her twelve-year-old daugh-

result of the attempt of eight-year-old

Martha died at the city hospital early
yesterday afternoon, and her mother died
a short time afterwards.

eight-year-old girl, who was handling the
gasoline can, was practically uninjured
by the explosion. Mrs. Larson was up

daughters, Martha, Lena and Myrtle.
down in the kitchen. Suddenly she heard
their loud screams, and rushed to the

for the door, and its opening let in a
rush of wind which spread the flames all
over her clothing.
AS Martha ran out of the door, Mrs.
Larson turned her attention to little
Myrtle, aged two years, and, while trying
to extinguish the fire in the child's cloth
ing, Mrs. Larson's own dress caught fire,
and she sacrificed her own life for her
baby.

BIG STRIKE THREATENED.
Chicago Building Trades Still Fight
ing the Contractors.

CHICAGO, August 22.-Unless the plans
of the leaders miscarry every union man
connected with the Building Trades Coun-
ell will be called out on strike before Labor
day. The plumbers have already been or
dered out, and 1t is the intention that all
other unions whose men are working shall
follow suit Owing to increased activity
in the building trades within the last few
days many union men have been put to
work. in some places with the consent of
the business agents, and 1t Is the purpose
of the unions to stop the work wherever
the bosses believed they had won a vic
tory, and show them that the labor or
ganiZations are still in the fight.
The business agent Of one OF the largest
unions in the building trades said: ''The
contractors have come to believe that 1t is
comparatively easy sailing for them new,
and accordingly have been undertaking
some large jobs with the idea there would
be no further trouble from the unions.
They will find that many of the men whom
they supposed to be ncn-union men have
become members of the unions. and they
will simply be unable to do any work 1t
is the only thing that is left the unions,
unless they propose giving up their fight
The idea of helping the contractors along
in their jobs has been a mistake which is
generally recognized now, and they will
find there is lot of fight left among the
men yet"
