sandwiched with some so-called music,
made by lot of squeaky voices that
sounded like they needed running

PARSONAGE BURNED.
Home OF Methodist Preacher at Santa
Fe Destroyed Yesterday.

The Methodist church parsonage at
Santa Fe was destroyed by fire Thurs
day morning, about daylight. It is not
known how the fire originated, but
when discovered the entire top OF the
kitchen WAS ablaze. Rev. BlacKmore,
the new pastor OF the church at Santa
Fe. who occupied the parsonage with
his family, first discovered the blaze
on going out after wood TO replenlsh
the fire In the fire place. 1t Is
Supposed that the blaze must have
origl mated at some time last night
while supper was being cooked and
slowly burned through the night,
gradually increasing In volume. All
the household furniture WAS saved
except the kitchen utensils and the
dining. room. There was no insurance
on the house, which was total loss.
