BURNED TO DEATH
Mike Heiben Meets Death in
His Burning Farm
81 House. !. !.

Coroner Gilbert was notified Sun
day evening that Mike Heiben, living
II miles northeast of Wilton had
been burned to death at his home
Thursday last, and the coroner,
Sheriff Welsh and Undertaken Up
right went to the scene this morning.
1t appears from the meagre details
that can be CLEANED, that the house
burned down Thursday night be-.
fore the neighbors could reach the
scene, and, supposing there had been
no one at home no investigation was
made. Sunday the continued absence
Heiben aroused suspicious and the
ruins were searched resulting in the
finding of the charred remains of the
man. He had been to Wilton that
day, it is said, drank somewhat,
though was not at all drunk when he
left for home. Further than this moth
ing is known of his movements or
what caused the fire.
His 17-year old daughter has been
school in this city, and,
having the measles, her mother came
down to nurse her and was all I'M
conscious of her loss until notified by
the coroner last night. She went
home this morning.
Heiben was IS years old and was
very popular among those who knew
him.
