TWO BOYS DIE IN A FIRE.
Lose Life in Residence of Illinois Chill
dren's Home and Aid Society.

Children. many of them suffering
from whooping cough, were thrown into
into panic by a fire which snuffed out
the lives of two of the children and de-
stroyed the receiving home of the Illinois
Children's Home and Aid Society at
Shelbyville, I'll. The fire started before
daylight. The two little ones killed were
overcome by smoke before they escaped
from their beds. Word received in Chi
cago at the office of the society, ~
Dearborn street. was that the dead chill
dren were Charles and Albert Peterson,
respectively and II years old. First
news of the fire was received in tele-
phone message from Percy Cooper,
director, at Shelbyville. 1t was that the
institution known as the MlddlesWortn
home, large two-story brick building
with wide verandas, had caught ire be-
fore daylight. Before assistance arrived
the building was in flames and the inte-
rior was filed with smoke. In this smoke
children from 6 to - years old were
scrambling to escape. An alarm had
been sent through the building by Miss
Jennie Frazer the matron. Cries from
the children and the light from the blaze
attracted neighbors, who began rescue
work before the fire department could De
called. Two stairways led from the sec
ond floor. Many of the children escaped
down these. Others climbed out win
dows and over sheds in the rear 1.-The
hire must have started from the kitchen
or laundry" said Mrs Martha ?. Fal-
coner, assistant superintendent. 1.-The
furnace had not been started. 1t is evil
dent that the fire had been smoldering
all night. Half of the children had the
whooping cough. 1t is probable that
some of these were first awakened by
the smoke and flames. With so many
exits it is strange that two children
should have been unable to get out"

Lost Cabin" mine in Modoc county, Cal

find was made by f. G. Hess, an old
resident of Candy, who arrived IN Al

some virgin gold, with samples Of ore

cred a myth, though many attempts have
been made to find it. Nearly fifty years
ago, when the MOdoc Indians were hos

settlement one day and displayed a guam

found a mine of untold richness and had
built a cabin on it. With a portion of
gold he purchased provisions and

Disembow1ed in Minnesota.
AS the story of the death Of the man
supposed to have been Thomas Fontalne
of Woonsocket, r. l., whose body was
found one mile from Mentor, Mimi, be-
comes known, it indicates that brutal
murder was committed. Fontalne ana
Joseph Guilmette, both of whom came
from Rhode Island, had been in the VI
cinity of Mentor for several days. Last
Friday they appeared at the Lapage
farm, and in conversation with Fon-
tame discovered that he and Lapage
came from the same vicinity in the East
and knew many of the same people. Fon-
tame owned farm in the East and
was fairly well-to-do. He carried con-
siderable money, but the amount is not
known. Monday afternoon the two men
were seen passing along the railroad by
several members Of the Mareaux family.
Fontaine later was found beside the
track. A bullet had entered the head be-
hind the ear, and the body had been
dragged face downward over the ties.
