BADLY DAMAGED BY FIRE
Mrs. spaugh Suffers Heavy Loss by
Her Residence Taking Fire

Last Saturday afternoon between
two and three o'clock, in some mys-
terious way not yet accounted for,
the residence of Mrs. Eva l..
Spaugh, on First Street, caught on
fire in one corner of the kitchen at
tic, and was ablazr before it was
discovered by ncighbors. AS soon
as the alarm was given and the fire
brigade with the hose could get
there, the work Of fighting the
flames was begun. The crowd at
tractrd 10y the alarm lent willing
hands in removing the household
goods aud most of the furniture
was taken out, but as is nearly al
ways the case under excitement
much Of II was badly damaged.
After the hose was attached to the
fire plugs and the water turned on
the flames were soon under control,
but the kitchen was almost wholly
destroyed, and the roof of the main
dwelling 50 badly damaged that
practically all of ii will have to be
replaced. The water, flowing down
through the house, did fully AS
much damage tn the plastcring as
the fire did to the roof, hut Of course
that L. Dmcthing that could not be
avoided.
1t will take probably Sl,200 or
more To- put the building back in as
good condition as it was. Besides
the loss on the building and th"
duma-' done to furniture, the fam
lily lost all their winter clothing
which was stored in tn" attic, rails
ing the loss to something like 81 100
or ~ ,~lO There Is an insurance Of
~, 900 ou the building, and 500 on
the hou>chold goods
How the huilding caught on fire
is not kuuwH. Miss Bertha Spaugh
was th" only one home ut the time.
She bad fire in the gasoline stow"
III NV Nit'h'h anu III u NIIh'l -hN'-
line stove in the bath room. She
had gone over to Mrs. Shaw's for Il
few minutes and was there when
the alarm was given. She ran home
and into the kitchen and bathroom
turning of the fire in the gasoline
stoves, but there was no sign of fire
in these rooms, nor anyway by
which blaze from the stoves could
have connected with the corner of
the attic where the fire started. Tho
only practical theories of how the
fire could huv" started are, either
some of the things stored there,
caused by the intense heat of the
sun heating down on tn" roof, or
that a match left in pocket of some
of the clothing or carried there by
mice may have been ignited by the
heat cngcudcrcd by the intense rays
of the sun against the roof.
The furniture was carried into the
Marks building, on an adjoining lot,
and as soon as it could be made
ready Mrs. Spaugh moved into 1t on
Tuesday In the meantime the
good neighhors sheltered the fam
lily, and much sympathy is expressed
on all sides with Mrs. Spaugh in the
loss she has sustained and the in
convenience to which she has been
put. As soon as the loss is adjusted
by the insurance companies Mrs.
Spaugh will have her residence,
which is comfortable two.stOry
building, repaired and put in good
condition again.

New York, December S.-A killing pace is gradually pushing the weaker teams into the rear of the six-day bicycle race at the Madison Square Garden. Just be- fore ' clock tonight, Clark, the Aus tralian printer, climbed high up on the outer edge of one of the turns and shot down into the saucer again at top speed, Before the field could get under way he had opened up a lead of a quarter Of a lap, and a desperate scramble for a long distance followed.
 Trainers swarmed about the railing, routing out fresh partners and for a time it seemed that all the riders were on the track ct once. For 20 minutes the furious drive held unslackened amid such confusion that the scorers had difficulty in reckoning the distance.
