BARN DESTROYED
Fire Breaks Out In Chas. Eddy's Barn
Horse Only Was saved


The fire whistle called out the fire de-
partment at an early hour Saturday morn
ing and quick run was made to Charles
Eddy's on the North Side, where his barn
was all in flames His son Harold disoov-
cred the flames shining in his bedroom
window and aroused the family. He
dressed quickly and ran into the barn just
in time to save the horse, which was
trembling with fear, receiving some burns
about the face and hands in so doing.
In the meantime Mrs Eddy turned in
an alarm and soon the fire department
was on hand, but the flames had such a
start that it was impossible to save it and
the barn, chicken coop and another out
building were consumed. In the barn
were pair of sleighs used for delivering
a carriage, harness, hay and grain and
other things which all went up in smoke,
with no insurance. The loss was about
$500.
The family cannot account for the fire.
Mr.. Eddy had not been in the barn that
day and Harold says everything was al
right when he did up the chores.

Patrick O'Grady Chumped on the
Head and Money Taken

Patrick O'Grady Thumped on the
Head and Money Taken
Saturday evening between seven ano
eight o'clock groans and means were
heard near the north end Of the railroad
bridge and on investigation with lantern
by workmen at the factory Patrick o
Grady was found lying down the embank-
ment near the edge of the water with his
head bruised quite badly and also a bruise
on his face. He was carried to the Hotel
Garnett. where he boarded, and DR.. Fer
guson called, who found a bad scalp
wound which looked as though it had been
made by blow on the head with some
blunt instrument.
When Patrick came to himself he saio
that someone met him and wanted to
shake hands, at the same time giving him
a blow on the head. His pockets, he said
had been picked Of five or six dollars, only
a one cent piece being left.
The doctor dressed his wounds and he
is getting along all right. O'Grady thinks
he would know the fellow who struck him
if he should see him again.
