has been missing. Thus far all eff

been futile and it is now believed he
met his death in the Truckee river.

is the ract that hat belonging to
the missing man was found floating
in the stream yesterday. Relatives
of the missing man authorized Of

A FATAL FIRE.
Child Burned to Death and the
Dwelling and Contents Of James
Price Utterly Destroyed.

Early on Tuesday afternoon july
IL, says the Lincoln County Record
the dwelling house of James Price
together with its entire contents
was destroyed by fire and the little
eighteen months old daughter OF
franco Depridini was bnrned to
death.
The building situated on Ely
Street was about rs feet front and
forty feet deep and was formerly
the home of H. Jacobs.
The firebell sounded at 1890 and
while rush was made with the fire
carts. the entire building was en-
veloped in flames before the hrst
line of hose reached the place. The
water force then was found low on
account of the building standing so
far up on the hillside as to approach
the level of the tanks from which
the water comes. and for time the
dwellings of w. M. Christian and
Henry Welland on the north we're
in great danger, together with the
whole of Cedar Street.
The second line Of hose reached
the FIRE in time to stop its spread
and was brought UP between the
two threatened building. But for
this timely coming the two threaten
ed buildings must have gone, asthe
fire had followed the fence and the
Christian house was about to burst
into blaze.
The FIRE is supposed to have been
started by small boys and matches
at the north corner of the Price
house where the wood pile stood.
Mrs. Price, in addition to an infant
Of her own, was caring for little
Annie Depridini, during the absence
of its mother, who, two weeks ago
went to Salt Lake for medical at
tendance. Mrs. Price had put both
children to sleep in rooms &C. o.ning
each other and was attending to
house duties when a neighbor
hurriedly brought news Of the FIRE
at the north side OF the building and
Immediately sounded the alarm. AL
Carman was among the first toreach
the scene and shouted to Mrs. Price
to bring water, that they could con.
troll the FIRE before the arrival of the
carts. While the two were throwing
their yrst buckets of water on the
flames, Mamie Wheatly went into
the house and ran out with Mrs.
Prices baby. A moment later, the
mother going for mpre water, missed
the child, lost her head, and imme-
diately ran about screaming for her
infant, forgetful for the time Of the
Depridini child in the adjoining
room. The FIRE had more of start
than Carman supposed, and a sud-
den change of the wind sent it whir.
ling Under the caves and across the
cloth ceiling. Mrs. Price by this
time finding her own child safe, re-
membered the other one and ran
frantically back to the burning
building to its rescue, aided by
Carman, Les Lytle and others.
Upon opening the door of the room
wave Of flame from the walls and
falling ceiling drove them back.
Mrs. Price suffered severe burns on
the neck and shoulders. The re-
mains OF tile child were found later
IN the ruins, and the funeral took
place yesterday afternoon, the re-
mains being inferred in the Catho-
cemetery.
So swift and sudden was the
spread of the fire that nothing
whatever was saved and the family
is destitute.

Lawton, Okla, Feb. S.-The hottest
townsite fight that Comanehe county
has ever known has again broken out
at Walter. The village, then called
Mcknight, was located in the Cache
creek fiat. An addition was laid out
on the hillside and the question "to
move OF not to move" was debated
energetieally. Sometimes bricks and
six shooters got into the argument.
The creek flooded the town on the
bottom and this argument induced the
town to move to the side hill This
took place over year ago. Then,
through litigation in the land Office,
the title to the addition reverted to
the government There was a plethora
of lot jumping and gun play at this
time.
Finally the Rock sland railroad To-
Gated it's station on the Thurman
quarter, which lies south of the So
called new town" AS soon as Mr..
Thurman could, he plated his quarter
and began pulling to get the burg to
come up next the depot
For six months this question has
agitated the town For time no one
moved, but the past week sudden
energy has been shown Three-fourths
OF the business houses of ne place
are on wheels. or just off Of them. The
men who built brick buildings are left
high and dry. They are boiling over
just at present, and some Of the "tc
move" leaders find it convenient to
look after their business at the county
seat.
The town is now over mile from
where Mcknight was first laid out
and a stone building put up there al
the time of the opening finds itself il
the midst of a cotton field.
