WIRE CAUSED a FIRE

Keokuk, Ia, June 14.-Oscar Yeager,
minute man in the fire department,
was instantly killed by coming in con-
tact With live wire. and Walter Tuck
er was so badly burned that his wounds
may result in death.
The cause of the two awful acci-
dents was fire in residence started
by the live electric wire which later
caused the death of Yeager. Tucker
who lived near the burning residence,
ran to the aid of the fireman and un-
consciously stumbled over the Wire.
His cries We're heard by Yeager, who
was acting as minute man for the fire
department, and running to the rescue,
to too. fell against the same wire. He
was instantly killed.
Tucker was soon rescued. but not UNI
til he had been burned so badly that
his wounds may prove fatal at any
time. One arm has been amputated,
and the other member is so badly
burned that amputation may also be
necessary.
Both men are unmarried.
