VICTIMS OF FLAMES.
Fire Destroys Farmhouse Near
Summerville, Pa.

Dubois, Pa, Zee. 23.-Word reached
here Sunday of terrible holocaust
that occurred about three miles from
Summeryile, Jefferson county, Satur-
day morning. The home of John Ash
baugh, a farmer, was destroyed by
fire, and four persons were burned to
death. One other is burned in such a
manner that recovery is very doubtful,
and four others are seriously burned
and injured. The dead are: William
Ashbaugh, 20 years old, brother of
the owner of the Ashbaugh home;
Maybel Ashbaugh, 12-year-oid-daugh-
ter; Harry Ashbaugh, ten-year-o.d
son; James Ashbaugh, nine-year-old
son. The injured are: Herman Ash
baugh, eight years old, burned in such
a manner that recovery is doubtful;
Mrs. Ashbaugh, seriously burned, leg
broken and injured internally by
jumping from a second-story window;
John Ashbaugh, the husband and
father, seriously burned and suffering
from exposure; two young children
painfully burned.
The ahalr happened at an early hour
in the morning, and the fire was I'M
doubted.y caused by an overheated
stove. Mr.. Ashbaugh was awakened by
smoke entering the room he occupied,
and found the lower part of the house
ablaze. He made his way outside with
his two smallest children, and hurried
back to look for his wife, brother and
four other children, who were still in
the house. He succeeded in reaching
a room that had been occupied by the
children, but only one, the 1S-year-old
boy, Herman, was there. He could
hear the screams of the three others
in another room which he was unable
to reach. Mr.. Ashbaugh could not en-
ter their room. The flames were so
fierce he was compelled to fight his way
from the house. Meantime, Mrs. Ash
baugh had jumped from an upper-story
window, and was lying on the ground
with a broken leg and suffering from
internal injuries and burns.

had done so much toward bringing

the success of American labors. than
anything else during the recent crit
zeal times. The governor said he ex-
pected to be back before May, and he
hoped to have the pleasure of pre-
senting the federal party's memorial
to the president.

Does Terrible Execution with
His Revolver.

Welch, W. Va, Dec. 21.-Wayne
Demon, an 18-year-old boy, shot three
negroes to death in saloon at the
mining town of Davy, this county,
Friday evening. Friday was pay day
at the Davy mines and the negroes
had begun their holiday celebration.
Drunkenness was visible on every
hand, and when about a dozen Of the
big blacks entered Eugene Dyes sa-
loon, on the leading street, revolvers
in hand, and demanded that all the
whites within retire, the trouble be-
gan. The bartender stepped into an
adjoining room for his pistol, and all
the other whites save Demon made
a run to get away. Demon, although
being almost a total stranger in the
town, was Merry and refused TO obey
the command to depart. Instead, he
pulled his revolver and in a twinkling
he had shot three of the negroes to
death, and the others were falling
over themselves to get away, Those
dead are Lem Booton, "Frick" Watts
and Harry Good, all residents Of the
coal fields. In the excitement De-
mon, whose home is in Catlettsburg,
KY, left the saloon by a near door,
and up to a late hour had not been
captured. In fact, but very little eff
fort is being made to apPrehend him.
He is an assistant bookkeeper for
Cole, Crane & Co., of Cincinnati. who
are engaged extensively in timbering
in this county. Demon was awaiting
the arrival of train to go to his
home to spend the holidays.

GREAT WILD HORSE HUNT.
An Expedition Sent to Central Asia
by n Noted Dealer in wild
Beasts.

In recent years the catching of wild
animals for geological parks and cir
cuses has by no means deteriorated
as an industry. In July of last year
Carl Hagen beck, of Hamburg, the
wild animal dealer, sent an expedi-
ton to Mongolia for specimens of the
wild horse to be found there, reports
the New York Sun.
The special kind of wild horse that
Mr.. Hagenbeck was after was more
than usually swift and elusive, and
to overcome the difficulties in the
way of its capture his men hired
seven troops of Kirghiz horsemen,
numbering about 1000 in all, and
mounted on animals almost as swift
as the wild horses.
The latest reports received here
are that the agents have secured 40
colts, nearly equally divided between
males and females. Brood mares had
to be taken along, one for each colt,
to serve as adopted mothers for the
young captives.
When the expedition gets out Of
Mongolia it will have to travel more
than two months through rough
country before it reaches the nearest
station on the Central Siberian rail-
way. After that the captive horses
will have to travel by rail nearly $500
miles to reach Hamburg.
Several of the captiyes have been
sold already, it is said, at about 81, 500.

DISASTER IN MEXICO.
Fire Destroys Market BuiIdlnE-Many
Lives Lost.


San Antonio, Tex, Dec. 23.-News has
just reached here of a terrible fire
in the City of Zacatecas, in the Mexican
state of the same name, in which many
lives were lost. The fire was in the
principal market building owned by
the city. The lower part of the build
ing contained a large number of eel.
lars and refrigerating apartments,
which were stocked with meats for
city consumption. The fire broke out
in these cellars, and when discovered
had made considerable Roadway. In
order to save as much of the meat
stored in the cellars as possible, large
force of men were ordered by the au-
thorities into the burning structure.
and while this force was working y G
flames burned their way to the top OF
the market, completely enveloping it.
The fire department was unable to
check the progress of the fire, and after
collapsed, the crumb,ing walls burying
a large number of the men in the eel.
lars under the ruins.
Just how many were killed is not
known, but the loss of life is said to
be appalling. Latest advices from
Zacatecas state that IS dead bodies
had been taken from the ruins, while
it is believed many are still under the
wrecked walls. The market building
was one of the finest structures of it's
kind in the republic, and was a source
of great revenue to the city. There is
no hope that any of the bodies under
the ruins are alive. How the fire origi-
mated is not known.

Black Diamond steel works of Park
Bros, on Thirtieth street, Friday.
The dead are John Welvik, aged 80

Joseph Zunic, badly cut and injured about
the head.
The injured at the hospitals are all
doing well except Steinbaugh, whose
injuries may yet prove fatal. Reuben
Miller, Jr., uperintendent of the
plant, states that the boilers were eX-
amined last week and pronounced in
excellent condition. No known cause
can be given for the explosion, but
thorough investigate is now in prog
reSs:
1t was about Ais o'clock as the
mill to the day force, that four boilers
IN the teu-inch bar mill No exploded
with terrific force, scattering death
destruction in all directions.
The mill was completely wrecked and
the debris is piled from so to IS feet
high. The boiler works of James NJ
Mcneil, adjoining the Black Diamond
mill, were also destroyed.
Four Simultaneous Explosions.
From what can be learned the four
boilers exploded at one time, reducing
the mill to a heap of burned and
charred timbers and twisted iron.
There is not a straight piece of iron
or steel left in the entire building.
Even the bolts in the beams and string
ers are twisted like screw nails.
The mill had 60 men on each turn,
and it is thought that almost 12O men,
both crews, were in the plant at the
time of the explosion. They were all
at work or just about to begin work,
and all the men were clad in their scant
working attire.
