Coal Creek Burned to Ground.

Florence. COlo.-ln the most disas-
trous cOnfagration in the history of
Fremont county, Coal Creek. a fom.-
ishinS village three miles south Of
here, which owes its existence to the
coal mines of the Colorado Fuel and
Iron Company located there, has been
practically wiped out by fire. A con
servative estimate of the loss is from
100000 to s250,000. No lives were
lost, and no one was injured. al.
though the entire poulation of the
town, summoned from the mines by
the catastrophe, united in fighting the
flames.
All the town reaching from the
Denver G. Rio Grande railroad to the
schoolhouse, a quarter of mile south
and half a mile wide, is heap of
smoking embers. Three hundred fami-
lies lost their all, and are homeless.
Relief in the way of food and cloth
ing has been sent from Florence, and
as the nights are warm the homeless
ones will not be forced to endure
much hardship
The Colorado Fuel and Iron colony
houses are located on a hill above the
town, and escaped destruction. Their
negro tenants performed yeoman Serv-
ice in aiding the white families in the
attempt to save their homes, and two
colored women, Maria Black and Sn-
sannah Jones, were overcome to the
point of exhaustion and had to be car
ried away to place OF safety.
Dynamite was used toward the last
N blowing up houses in the path of
The flames. and the schoolhouse was
saved, standing alone on a smoke
blackened plain.

CAT-RIFLE GETS CLAYTON BOY IN TROUBLE
Jackson Poore Shot In Stomach By Leslie

jackson Poore Shot In Stomach By Leslie
Diekinsou-Arrest to Await Injuries.
Leslie Dickinson lad from Will
mington visiting in Clayton got him
self into trouble about 5 O'Clock yester-
day afternoon while playing with a
cat rifle. Dickinson was practicing
out in the RAILROAD Lot" when he
saw man, whom he supposed to be
one of the numerous aggregation who
''beat" their way on freight trains, re-
clining on the enbankment. The
latter whose name was afterwards
learned, was jackson Poor of Harring-
ton young man 10 years of age who
came up on morning freight. Dick
inson boy like was full of mischief
and daring, thought he would try to
scare the man and fred one of his b.
B. cartridges. The shot however
went the wrong way intended and
instead of imbedding itself in the bank
near by it struck Poore and entered
his stomach. Poore was taken in
charge by fellow companion and
seeing his injury was serious, the aid
of some Clayton people was summoned
and he was hustled off to Wilmington
Hospital on the evening train. Dick
inson, who was scared nearly to death
by his reckless shooting was later
arrested by Constable Boyer and held
in bail of 5000 to await the result of
Poore's injuries. Lesley Dickinson
is a son of Gus Dickinson of Whining
ton and was down in in Clayton on
visit to John Ford. Inasmuch as the
shot was accidental there is much
sympathy for young Dickinson. 1t is
not thought that Poore's injuries will
result fatally.
