DEAD IN A FIRE.
Five Children Perished Des. bite Mothers Efforts to Save Them.

Council Bluffs. Ia, Feb 2.-Fjve children were burned to death in a blaze which destroyed their home carly to-day. Their mother was probably fatally hurt. The children were those Of Peter Christtansen. ranging in age from a baby of five months to a girl of il years.
 Mrs ChrisHansen was awakened by smoke and flames which almost filled the house. She left the baby in bed and rushed to q room where her thzee daughters and a son were asleep. The room was mass of flames. but she tried to enter, sustaining terrible burns. Finally the woman ran to the street and gave the alarm. Neighbors hurried to the scene but were power less and the building, a small one of wood, was destroyed before the fire men arrived. How the fire started is unknown.

THE SPECIAL ELECTION.
Prosecutor Pierce Says Saloons Hay
 be Open on February l2.

Liquor dealers and others are inters ested in the question as to whetheI saloons will be obliged to close on Feb. ruary F, the day set for the special election in the Second ward, to choose successor to the late Alderman Louia Gates. Prosecuting Agent Wilson Fl Pierce told Democrat reporter to-day that he does not believe the case falls under the prohibition of the statuts which forbids the keeping open of any saloons on the day of state, town os city election. This. MT Pierce says; IS merely R local vote in single ward for the purpose of filling vacancy in an office in that district and in his Judgment the law does not requfrs saloons to close on such occasions, The opinion of the prosecuting agent ought~toe be sufficient to remove ali doubtssFon that point
 The electors of the Second ward ara very much interested in the selection Of candidate to succeed Mir Gates and 1t is surprising how much trouble they are experiencing in getting tos gether on somebody who will please all clements. Among the candidates mentioned are the following: F. R, Buck, secretary of the Welch Hosiery Co. the same concern with which Nil Gates was connected; George Ls Jenks the real estate man; Ferdinand Wolff, chairman of the watervflls sch ool board; l.. Dyson, of the Water vile Cutlery Co.; George o. Monroe, an employe of the American Pin Col William Flint, treasurer of the Water, vile school board The friends of each are making strong fight for the man of their choice and so far the choics is an open question.

The ground hog stepped out of his winter quarters this morning, looked about him and noticing his shadow made up his mind that the coast was not yet clear and retired to have an other nap which will last about six weeks. If there be any truth in ground hog lore people will make no mistake in keeping an eye to their coal bins for it is certain that the little snoozer experienced no difficulty in seeing his shadow this morning. But 1t is Can dlemas day, inst the same and after a short time the backbone of winter will be broken and we will be on the road to the bud and bloom of spring regardless of the antics of the ground hog t-

The announcement tlrat Mrs John De1ntze of 26 North Main street. who left her husband and child and home several weeks ago and did not return until last Saturday night, had become reconc1led with her husband and was about to live with him again, is rath- CT premature.
