CHICAGO, Nov. BUSY, buzzing bees
stampeded guests and employees at the
Palmer House yesterday afternoon. Es-
Gaping from a suit case, in which they were
being conveyed to Iowa, they flew through
corridors and lobby, stinging a number of
patrons. Just then Edward Tiedt, of In
dianapolis, appeared on the scene. He was
excited. Have you any bees around
here?" he asked, and then as he perceived
the insects, tried to round them up with a
piece of gauze netting. ''They are high
priced bees" he declared. Il was taking
them to my farm in Iowa. I'll give 81 for
every one that is captured"
Bell boys became busy, but no buster
than the bees, and guests fed from the ro-
tunda Some sought the bar. and the bees
followed. Two made directly for a Scotch
high BALI and were killed with a towel.
A young woman telegraph operator sought
refuge in "a telephone booth, but they
chased her out. Mr.. Tiedt had intended
starting an apiary on his Iowa farm, and
the bees were carried in his suit case.

MONTPELIER, Ind. Nov. 4.-[s. a. MI
This city was visited by a disastrous fire
early this morning. and at o'clock it
looked as IL the whole town might be swept
by flames.
The fire started about 2:20 a. m. in Nc
Donaid's livery stable. and rapidly spread
to adjoining buildings. The stable was de-
stroyed and one man burned to death. An
other was injured so seriously he may die
Both were employed in the stable. Several
head of horses were also burned.
Besides the Mcdonald stable a saloon was
destroyed and other buildings damaged The
burned buildings were owned by T. c. Pal
mer and Lee Mills.
When the alarm was given citizens
turned out in force to fight the fire. The
engine was dragged to the livery stable
and with it's meager facilities the fire COM
pany did it's best to prevent the fire from
spreading from the stable to adjoining
buildings. The flames. however, had
gained such headway they could not be
stayed, and the saloon next to the stable
was soon aflre. The flames then spread to
another building with great rapidity. de-
spite the efforts of the citizens. who by
this time had become fully alive TO the
danger and were assisting the fire company
with buckets of water and wet clothes.
At 800 il was learned that the name OF
the man possibly fatally burned was Nit
Crozer. He was sleeping in the hayloft Of
the livery stable and was pulled out by two
men, who had their hands severely
scorched. The name of the man burned to
death Is not known at this hour. There
were several teamsters sleeping I'm the barn
and ii is known that one of them perished.
AT this hour the fire is under control. and
IL is estimated the loss will be in ;he neigh
borhood of $4,000. Lee Mills owned the
building In which the saloon was kept
The firc spread 10 a number of buildings,
but was kept pretty well confined TO the
livery barn and the saloon building. One
of the buildings threatened was that in
which the harness store OF Mayor Snyder
is situated. The firemen kept the flames
from spreading there. however. TO any Sc
rious extent. All OF the horses were res
cued from the livery barn except four.
