FIRE AT OSKALOOSA
Costly Residence of W. r. Lacey, To.

stroyed by FIames-Loss Will Prob

ial to Times Republican.

Special to Times Republican.
Oskaloosa, Dec. 6.-The most de-
structive fire that has been in Oska-
e osa for several months, occurred Sun
day at noon when the beautiful resi-
cence of w. r. Lacey was destroyed
by fire. The fire started in the furnace
room while the family was at church,
thru a crack in the brick wall which
protected the floor from the heat of the
steam plant The fire had quite a
fsadway before it was discovered and
the department had much difficulty in
fighting the fire till they reached the
attic.
1t cannot be exactly estimated what
the loss will be, owing to so much
costly furniture and many priceless
curios. 1t is not thought that the loss
will fall much below $4,000
In connection with the house Mr..
Lacey had unique greenhouse, which
contained hundreds Of dollars worth Of
plants. This was utterly destroyed.

Case Being Tried at Clinton May Go
to the Jury Today.
Special to Times Republican.
Clinton, Dec. 6.-The case Of Fred
b. Comstock, ON trial in the Clinton
district court, on the charge Of man
slaughter, will probably go to the jury
late this afternoon. After twelve
jurors had been selected, Judge Bar
ker called for witnesses at 4:30 o'clock
yesterday afternoon. He was forced to
adjourn court, however, for the reason
that several of the witnesses for the
state were intoxicated and were not in
condition to take the witness stand.
These were reprin1anded by the Judge.
At the morning session Of court fol-
lowing, the state rested, after all of its
witnesses had been examined. The at
torneys for the state endeavored to
show that Alexander Clark, an aged
Clinton fisherman had come to his
death as the result of a blow struck by
Fred Comstock, the prisoner, in the
Haley saloon on Fourteenth avenue, in
September. The counsel for the de-
tense argued that the blow had been
struck in self defense, and introduced
testimony tending to show that such
was the case. The outcome is awaited
with much interest.
