An Attempt At Arson.

An attempt to fire the lumber in
the yard of The Mesa Lumber COM
pany last Saturday night. has been
kept a semi secret since then, in the
hone that those who made such das-
ardly attempt at arson, might be ap-
pretended.
At about the midnight hour, the
Lutes boys, who were passing toward
home. discovered a blaze
in the yard. They at once OWNED
that no one connected with the yard
would be making fire for any pur-
poes at that hour of the night. They
at once went into the yard and they
found blaze which was of consider
able proportions and spreading. 1t
was made from cotton waste and chips
of lumber and it would have been but
short time before huge piles of lum-
Der would have been afire.
The Lutes boys put out the fire and
said nothing until they reported the
matter to Manager Hickman of
the company.
Mr.. Hickman stated today that he
thought the fire was started by some
tramps and was for the purpose of
attracting the attention of the people
of the neighborhood, so that they
might commit robbery more readily.
