pear but on Thursda" night the Bab by boy was there again and the farmer took a position in a cupOla which over looks the entire roof of the house. He soon discovered the man sitting on the edge and a corner of the roof. Me Earhart fired at him and then another strange thing happened. The edge of the roof is not more than six feet from the ground and the house is surround ed by palms and other dense shrub bery. The stranger instead of swing ing off the roof to the ground ran up to the comb of the roof and ran along toward the cupola in a threatening manner Before reaching it he turned aside and swung of. of it in the most difficult place to the ground. Not d sound was heard after that, but Me Earhart and young Babby made a search for him. They soon saw him and started in his direction. He made no haste to flee but was seen to stop and light a match He was pursued no farther. The .occupants of the ranch house spent the rest of the night at the Babby home.

FIRE CAUSES LOSS OF NEARLY 80, 900
Large Engine CoaIiug Station on Rail-
road Yard Burned.

Bluefeld yesterday suffered a most
costly fire, the damage amounting to
probably thirty Thousand dollars, to say
nothing of the loss to the Railway Com
pany by reason of the inconvenience
necessitated by coaling the engines by
hand.
About half-past eight o'clock yester.
day morning the sand house, which was
lean-to Of the large engine coaling
station of the Norfolk and Western in
the yards here, was discovered to be on
fire. The alarm was promptly given,
but the structure burned rapidly, the
flames quickened by the explosion of a
tank of gasoline which was used to run
the engine that controlled the machin-
cry of the station, and the fact that the
6re originated in portion of the house
in which was stored a quantity of waste.
There was large amount of coal in
the tipple and this made the fire uasu-
ally hot, preventing etfeetive work by
the fremen, A number of cars and en-
siaes standing close to the station were
hastily. removed and saved. Several
cars were being dropped down the
grade away from the danger point and
and collided with a locomotive, doing it
some damage.
The coaling station was in short
while mass of ruins. 1t cost about
thirty thousand dollars and was one Of
the finest coaling stations on the system.
1t was fitted with the latest make of
machinery to convey coal from the cars
to the top of the four story structure
and distribute the fuel in chutes ready
to be loaded into the tenders,
There was about two hundred tons of
coal in the station, and car standing
directly under it which were destroyed.
