-FOUR HORSES BURNED
. IN FIRE NEAR W00OSTOWN
Property on William Wealth
erly's Farm Was De
stroyed by Flame

woodstown. n. j., Aug. 22.-Four
horses and a mule were burned to
death in a fire which early this morn
ing destroyed the stable and barns on
the Villa mWeatherby farm two and
half miles from here.
The fire was discovered shortly after
o'clock, but too late to save the
property and animals. The flames had
gained considerable headway when
Villa mHiles. the tenant on the farm,
was aroused from his sleep. Aided by
several of his farm hands. he tried to
reach the stalls. but the flames beat
him back, and he was unable to re-
spond to the piteous cries Of the help
less animals.
An appeal for help was sent to this
town. and though the volunteers an
swered promptly. they could do lit
tie to save the burning buildings.
The entire community was aroused
and for an hour watched the flames as
they played havoc with the proper
ties. only with great difficulty was
the farm house saved from destruc-
tion.
The loss is estimated at several
thousand dollars. partly covered by
insurance. The origin Of the blaze Is
O mystery. but II is generally believed
that the stable was set on fire by
tramps.
