Nieht Could be Seen in the Sky from
Norfolk.
From Wednesdays Dnilvl
The Norfolk fire department came
very nearly having to make a long
hard trip in the cold air of last night
to help battle against flames at Wayne,
forty miles away, which destroyed two
buildings in the business section of
the town, the Fair store and Robin.
sons store. The fire started at about
10 o'clock and so fiercely did the blaze
gain headway and so much did 1t
threaten the town that Wayne pre-
pared to call on Norfolk for help in
case of necessity. Later the tiames
were extinguished, however, and the
local department was not needed.
The fire could be easily seen shining
against the northeast sky in Norfolk.
Though the thermometer registered
fifteen degrees below zero, the Nor
folk boys were ready and willing to
make the trip in case they were need
ed
A special train was to have been
run by the Omaha road to carry the
local department.
Both the Fair store and the Robin
son store. which contained a new
stock, were completely destroyed
Both are covered by insurance and the
loss was not definitely known this
morning.
The fire started from an explosion
in the second story of the roof of the
Robinson store.

It was fifteen degrees below zero in

said there would be zero weather along

many hours before the mercury began
to sink in its tube.
A year ago today there was bliz-

He had eaten dinner at McCormick's and then started for his destination, not be- ing seen afterward. c. A. Johnson hunted for Smith for two days and then notified Sheriff Henderson, who sent out searching parties, but owing to the heavy snows were un- able to accomplish their object.

 Now, it is not often that twelve inning games are played, even by league teams, and the score of 10 to 8 shows in what form the men were playing. As a whole, the umpiring wae rather fair, but or at least two occasions the Indians were given the worse of close decisions, which, to the writer, looked as if they should have been in their favor. Whether these made difference is question that will never be known.
 It is now given out that Ash Fork and Indian teams will play another game here Sunday, July r, for the gate receipts, same to be divided at 60 and 40 per cent, Those who were present on the 4th and saw the holly contested game between these clubs will turn out in body to "root" for their favor ties.
 ! BRONCHO BUSTING.
 This attraction was pulled off i'm mediately after the ball game, and was the last number on the pro- gram. There were four entries Miller, Geddes, Daniels and Gil bert, and they rode in the order named. The horses ridden by the two first named were rather tame and did not show off what the rid CTS could really do, but those rid den by Daniels and Gilbert were the real thing. Daniels was givef the purse, $50, he being the popu lar choice and the choice of the judges and he was entitled to the money. He showed himself to bt a high class rider, and while many men would have been holding or with both legs, and some pulling leather, he was rolling his spurs first up one side and then the othel of his mount, and seemed to care as little for the vicious plunging al he would that of hobby horse.

 Talk about people! We'll, ther' more here on the Fourth than eve before. Several other towns in the northern part of the territory wer' having celebrations, but it made nc difference in the crowd at Williams All of the old familiar faces were present, as we'll as uncountabl numbers of new ones.

 On the night of the Fourth ths Knights of Pythias band gave g grand ball at the opera house which was largely attended. Int boys had furnished the music dur ing the celebrat ation on that day, ano before the night was over were pretty we'll tired out with their ex. ertions.
