escaped being burned to death, and
only saved his wife and three chill.
dren by narrow margin. Mrs. Trow
was slightly burned and the house and
contents were entirely destroyed.
Trow had occupied the house for
some time. and several months ago re-
ceived an unsigned letter telling him
that the house was to be burned and
warning him to move. The letter had
been thrust under the door. Trow
paid no attention to 1t, and since has
received other warnings Of the same
character. all Of which passed nm
noticed About o'clock In the morn
ing Trow was awakened by the smell
of smoke. He went TO the stairway
and found the lower part Of the
house was mass of flames. He
awakened his wife and children. Ty-
ing blankets and sheets together he
lowered the children in safety to the
ground, and then lowered his wife.
AS the woman was being lowered,
the flames burst forth from down
stairs window and she was burned
about the face and hands, but not SCI
rfously. Trow then slid down the i'm
provised rope.
The affair has caused much excite.
ment in Highland Park, but no one
has yet been able to suggest motive
for the incendiafism. The police of
Des Moines have been notified and are
at work upon the case.

Parrot Gives Alarm.

A parrots cry of fire" gave an
alarm which saved the Odd Fellow
building at Des Moines from destruc-

room and had smouldered for some
time. In the building was the Iowa
seed store, which among other things
had a stock of parrots One Of these
birds apparently smelled the smoke
and began screaming discordantly.
The other birds took up the cry and
made SO much racket that an investi-
cation was made and the fire discoy-
ered before any great amount Of dam
age had been done.

New Trick Of Beef Trust.

The mollycoddle plan Of prosecuting
the Beef Trust that the Administration
attempted has evidently had no effect
on the Beef Barons. Nothing but an
indictment under the criminal section
of the antitrust law will bring them to
time. They are evading the beef in
spection law by compelling the farmers
to stand the loss on Cow stuff, that
has been thrown out by inspectors, al
though the beef trust buyers selected
and bought the cows which were APP
parently sound and healthy. Tho stock
growers have taken alarm and are hold
ing back their cattle from market and
in consequence the price Of beef has
been advanced both wholesale and re-
tail. Thus the consumers have to pay
the cost of inspection, thanks to the
Republican majority in control of Con-
gres and also the loss on cattle rejected
by the inspection. DEBORAH Journal.
