QUARREL; SETS
FIRE To TENT
Stranger Winds up Dispute
by Threatening to Burn
PAYERS Up.
MAKES PROMISES GOOD
While Victims Are Not Consumed
By Flames They Are
Badly Injured

Henry AIacur and Thomas Palmer
two men employed by the Hartigan
Construction company who are build
ing the macadam road between Toleston
and Hammond were badly burned at an
early hour this morning while asleep
in their tent near the Standard Steel
Car company's plant.
Yesterday afternoon, Palmer and
Macur became engaged in a dispute
with another man who is said to be
employed by the Standard Steel Car
company. The dispute ended in a quar-
rel, the Standard Steel man going
away but vowing vengence on Macur
and Palmer. He said he would fix
them" by setting fire to their tent some
night when they were asleep.
The men thought nothing about the
matter until this morning when they
were awakened by fire which was
burning in their tent and by the time
they were awake their clothing was
on fire and their hands, face and bodies
were badly burned.
Are Severely Burned.
The two men managed to get out Of
the tent and succeeded in getting the
fire extinguished but not until they
were badly burned.
Hearing the cries from the two men
other members of the camp came to
their rescue and summoned an ambul-
ance taking them to St. Margaret's hos
pital.
Both Palmer and Macur are firm in
their belief that their tent was set on
fire by the man who made the threat
yesterday afternoon.
Upon calling up the hospital all that
could be learned was that the men
were no better and they were severely
! burned

NICE BUNCH OF DRUNKs.

Sunday was an exceptional day in the
local police station which as rule is
as quiet as a church of a Sabbath. The
cause for the changed condition was
the unusual number of drunks that
were brought IN. To accommodate
them Judge w. w. McMahon held court
on Sunday giving them an opportunity
to plead guilty. Two of the men, Otto
Doebler and Dave Frazier were arrested
for fighting. Others who were in the
tolls are Ben Schultz. c. A Adams
Joseph Buckhorn. Patrick Oates and E.
Thomson. They all pleaded guilty to
disorderIy conduct and were each fined

great success, insuring a new III

MANAGEMENT OF ASCOT
BUsILY DOING POLITICS

LOS ANGELES March 25.-Despite
all reports to the contrary, the persons
financially interested in Ascot Park
hope to be able to hold race meeting z
there next season and are working
to make this possible. They are doing
politics with as much vim and energy
as though the election OF United
States Senator depended upon their ef-
forts. They profess to believe that the
City Council will look complacently
upon a proposal to reopen the track
next winter.
Whether or not this assurance Is well
grounded. ii is certain that Ascot as
at present conducted. cannot be con-
tinued next year without a spirited
contest. The track is not in good odor
and several organizations stand ready
to knock it where knocking will do the
most good. The laws Of this city are
such that upon petition it would be
possible to refer the question to a vote
of the people. II that were done the
fate of Ascot would be sealed for
ever.
Five out of six favorites were beaten
today on a track which was fetlock
deep in mud. The crowd was one OF
the smallest OF the season

Doubt as to Thompson making 133

ably for Hyland being favorite. The
Chicago boxer was within fraction OF
