4 RESIDENCE BURNS.
Home OF Mrs. Eva Shellito Is Totally
Destroyed BY Fire.

At $50 this morning an alarm
was sounded at the fire station and
upon investigation Is was found that
the residence of Mrs. Eva. Shellito
on West Water street was in flames.
The fire had gained such Roadway
before ii was discovered that Mrs.
Shellito and her daughter Miss Fay.
who were fast asleep, barely had time
to escape from the burning building
alive.
When the fire ladies reached the
scene the building was too near gone
for anything to be saved, so their at
tention was turned to the buildings
near by, which were all saved with
out being damaged.
The value of the house was about
$500, while the furniture was valu-
ed at 5000. The only things saved
was a sewing machine, which was
taken from window, and one trunk.
Among the most valued things lost
was a fine piano and tandem
broidered quilt, which had just been
finished
Mrs Shellito carried $1,000 insur-
ance on the house and $500 on the
furniture. The origin of the fire is
unknown.

IsEY's APPOINTMENT HELD UP

Soon after the appointment of Governor Frantz,
Editor Isenberg of the Enid Wave announced his
candidacy for the Office of Wild Duck Inspector of
Beaver County. Iseys well-known fitness for the
position made him the logical canddate:he has long
been considered one of the most eminent authorities
on duckology in the entire country and 1t was he who
Originally propoundedthe famous problem "a duck
behind two ducks, duck before two ducks and
duck in the middle'' COL Sly Oberander and Major
Whittnghill gave Isey strong endorsements and he
also had the solid backing of the Enid Society of Sons
of Rest powerful organization of which he was the
founder, and which has probably done more than all
other agencies combined in the way of removing sur
plus goods boxes about the square at Enid Added
10 this Isey was known to enjoy the friendship Of the
Governor who being somewhat of a sportsman him
self, had at once recognized Isey the proper man
for the Job and had held out encouragement to him.
Aud vet in the face Of all this, for some mysterious
reason, the appointment has been held up and now
the cause has leaked It is learned that Isey has
failed to secure the endorsement of Judge Beauchamp
1t IS said that the latter favors Pete Drummond for
the place But there are indications now that Isey
will secure the support of the Plumbers Union and if
he does he will doubtless land the job. The wild
duck situation in the marshes of Beaver county is
growing serious. Another duck was seen there few
days ago and he quacked ncessanty demanding to be
inspected.
