There is always a ludicrous side to

in his inside coat pocket. In the excite.

stray shot or by Jess coming IN contac.
with some hard substance. and the whis-
key coursed down the side Of his body.
jess mistook the whiskey for blood and
loudly Iamented his fate believing he wa.
all in. He imagined pains creeping
over every inch Of his frame and could
see gore oozing out Of his side. He was
taken to the hotel and his clothing quick
" removed when not a trace Of a shol
could be found but the real cause Of h.
fright was ascertained. The awful pain
ceased as soon as jess found that he was
not touched" and he now swears thai

GRIFFITH HAS BAD
FIRE IN FOUNDRY
Engine in Burning Building
Pumps Water to Put Out
Flames Around It.
Especial to Lake County Times.)

NSpNCAAA A14hC NOuuty AAincH-D
Griffith, Ind, Aug. 10.-The 3. B.
Potter Cos. Foundry and Manufacture
ing plant caught fire yesterday. Friday,
evening. about o'clock. and destroyed
the foundry and part of the engine
room, before the flames We're gotten
under control Much OF the valuable
machinery was removed from the
manufacturing part OF the plant but it
proved needless. for by the prompt as
sistance of the people in the vicinity.
the flames We're beaten back and held
in the foundry.
No one hos any clew as to the cause
of the fire. A heat had just been run
off just before closing at o'clock,
but superintendent Helm scouts the
idea of that being the cause When
first seen by Henry Dutton, who gave
the alarm. the fire was just beginning
to burst through the roof and it was
found that the interior was a mass of
flames.
The loss is variously estimated at
from $4,000 to $4,000, but nothing can
be definitely determined until it is
known how much the cupola and ma
chinery was damaged by the heat.
The building is a total loss. There is
some insurance. but just how much.
Superintendent Helm did not say.
One striking feature in the fight
against the flames is the fact that the
engine and pump was set to going and
continued TO pump away serenely
furnishing water to put out the fire
even when the flames were all about
1T. 1t seemed strange to look into the
raging furnace and hear the steady
click Of the pump as it worked 10 save
itself and the rest of the plant.
