FARM BUILDINGS BURNED.
Frank Peva's Horse Starts Fire Near
Weeks Mills BY Kicking Lantern.

South China, Ne, March 29-(Spc-
ciaD.-While Frank Pcva was feeding
his stock on his farm on the Augusta
road, about q mile and a half from
Weeks Mills about o'clock Frida Y
night, one of his horses kicked IL light
ed lantern into pile of hay. setting it
on fire. The blaze spread rapidly and
burned unchecked, despite tho efforts of
such assistance as could be readily
gotten together for an effort to cXtin-
guish the flames.
The farm buildings, consisting Of the
dwelling house, ell and barn were en-
tirely destroyed and one COW was
roasted alive. despite desperate effort :
to effect her rescue Two horses. as well
as considerable other stock, were res
cued. In the cellar beneath the house
was stored 100 bushels Of potatoes AMI
these are also n total loss. Some of the
family effects in the house were saved,
but the greater part of the contents Of
all the buildings were totally destroyed.
The fire started about o'clock Fri
day evening. while Mr.. PcVa was doing
his chores in the barn. He set his Ian
tern down a little too near one OF the
stalls AMI before he realized that thC"n
was any danger in its proximity to til
horses one of them had reached it with
his hoof and knocked it into Il pile Of
hay. smashing the globe and setting thr
hay on fire.
AS soon as he could Mr.. Pcva gay,
the alarm, but the barn, with the hay
and other combustible material III i,
was dry as finder and IT was soon ap-
parent that the building must 60. Fl
forts were then concentrated on an at
tempt to save the stock and the greater
part Of it was gotten out i'll safety. 10
fore this work of rCSCu" was cuIIplctcl.
however, the flames had spread TO III"
house and the ell and these too WcI Z
soon reduced To ruins. Some of the TAR
nturc was taken out Of the house. but
in a short time the fire had gained su"r
Roadway that those engaged in thus
work were obliged to deSiSt and IN"
greater Part of the contents Of the
building was burned.
The damage will amount to about
s25O0. The buildings were insured
through the Downing agency for S1lO",
There was no insurance on their CON
