HAPPENINGS IN

What Has Been Going on
During the Past
Week.
PRIMGHAR VISITED BY FIRE
Twelve Business Houses Destroyed at a
Loss of 5O,o0O-Town Has No Water
works-Five Men Injured In Coal Mine
Near Newton.

Primghar, Nov. 2.-The business
portion Of Primghar was almost com
pletely wiped out by the worst fire
in the history of the town at an early
hour yesterday morning. Twelve bus
mess houses are in ashes as a result
of the blaze and the total loss will APP
proXimate $4,000, while the insurance
is estimated at about half the amount
of tne loss. The fire started in the
postoffice and was caused by the eX-
plosion of a kerosene lamp. The post
Office was a frame building and burn
ed like finder. All of the mail was
destroyed and the postmaster states
that the mail boxes were well filled.
The town is without fire protection
of any kind and the efforts of the
citizens were futile to stay the pro-
gress of the fire from the very start.
The city is built about square on
which the court house is situated, and
of all the business houses in town
but one dry goods store is left stand
ing, while there are left but two or
three other stores of any description.
Although the town is the oldest in the
county, with the exception of Shell
don, and is county seat, the town has
never built water works. The ques-
ton of fire protection has been dis
cussed for some time and 1t was re-
Gently decided to submit the matter to
the voters at the election next Tues
day. Besides the damage to the build
ings a great many goods were lost, al
though in most cases attempts were
made and were partially successful to
remove the stocks to places OF safety.
1t is a great blow to the city. but will
probably result in the building of
more substantial and better buildings
than those destroyed.
Following is a list of the losses, as
nearly as can be estimated at this
time:

Donohue, Mrs. William Cowan's sis
ter. She was just stepping out OF
the door of her house when there
came a slide of snow and ice off the
steep roof of her house At the point
where the snow started two roofs
came together forming trough.
She was buried instantly under ov-
er six feet of snow. Her daughter
saw the accident and at once gave
the ALARM
She ran from house to house calling
for help and in a few minutes ten men
were on the ground engaged in the
work of shovelling the woman out. II

reached her and the first thing they
saw was her foot. They then cleare,
the snow away to her waist and tyin-
a rope ;.:,out her knees pulled her out
She was insensiblc and the BLOOD
was coming from her nose and month

roof she would have reycr been res

InyO Prospect0r's Story

A number of old timers were swap
ping "reminiscences the other day
when Pat Clinton told of the coal ex-
citement on Kearsarge in 1875. Pat
and his partners were prospecting a
claim on top OF Kearsarge mountain
and employed Al Robinson to pack
their supplies. One of the mules was
loaded with $50 pounds of stone coal
and a box of giant powder At a bad
place in the trail the mule fell off and
about the second time he turned over
the dynamite exploded and mule and
coal were considerable scattered. A.
bout a year afterward a couple of
prospectors took short cut down a
Slide and found float coal. They came
to town, kept their secret, took an out
fit and went back to look for the ledge
After weeks patient search they
found plenty Of float but 10 coal mine
They related their lack of success and
then the whole thing came out.-Inyo
