A BOGUS FRUIT DEALER
Invades Lottaville and Sells
Cucumbers For
Pears.

one Hammond fruit dealer at least
had better be careful when he again
invades Lottaville, with his truck. He
mas played trick on an unsuspecting
damsel which will not be forgotten
and which will undoubtedly cost him
his Lottaville trade.
The fellow went to LottaviIle early
IN the week and sold what he claimed
20 pc basket of pears to Miss Lilly
bothwel, the daughter of c. C. Both
Wen, a prosperous farmer near Lotta-
vile.
MISS Boutwell,. upon examining the
pears, found to her great astonishment
that the lower half of the basket was
hlled with cucumbers
Mr. Boutwell, was in Hammond YES
tefday with the object of procuring ad
ditional evidence against the peddler.

five PEOPLE DIE IN FIRE
Twelve Others Injured in Kan.
sas City Rooming House.

Kansas City, Feb. 1.-Five persons
were burned to death and twelve 9TH
ers were injured in a fire in a three
story rooming house at 1116 Wyan-
dotte street near the business section.
The dead are: Mrs. Jennie Bert, aged
t%wenty-nine, Harrisonyille, Mo-, wait
ress; Mabel Porter, aged eighteen,
waitress; Nina Graves, aged eighteen,
waitress; Peter Rooney, aged thirty
four, cook; Charles Johnson, aged
twenty-eight, cook.
The fire started from an explosion
of natural gas in the basement. The
flames and dense smoke spread quick
ly throughout the building and before
an alarm could be given all means OF
escape by the ordinary exits had been
shut of. The five persons who lost
their lives were asleep on the third
floor and all save Mrs. Bert were
burned to death in their rooms. Evi.
IDENTIFY they had been s%uffocated and
none apparently had even made an
attempt to escape. Before the firemen
arrived the building was a mass OF
flames and the rooms on the upper
floors could not be entered. Mabel
Porter and Nina Graves, two of the
dead, occupied a room together. The
injured slept on the lower floors and
in the basement. Most of these es-
capped without aid, fighting their way
through the flames and smoke. The
tiremen were able to rescue others
from the burning building.
