STOCK KILLED
IN barn FIRE

Bisbee, Dec. ga phone message
apprised people of Bisbee that John
Kelly's large barn was on fire. Mr..
Kelly had just arrived in town from
the farm, having left everything, as
he thought in ship shape. With the
barn, which was the largest in this
vicinity, seven young horses, several
COWS and hogs were burned.
1t is surmised that the fire was
caused by the explosion of an oilstove.
Attached to, and part Of the barn,
was a room in which the gasoline en-
CINE used for pumping, and grinding
feed stock.
1t appears that one of the men had
lit an oil stove to warm the room or
to thaw some water and then attended
to some other work. Within a short
time after the man had left the room
that whole part of the barn was a
mass of seething flames.
The sudden appearance of the fire
leaves no doubt, but that the stove ex-
ploded, scattering burning oil over
everything. Seven horses, several
COWS, and many hogs were in the
barn at the time but the fire spread
so rapidly that they could not be saw
ed. With the utmost effort the other
building, short distance from the
barn, was saved by the men.

HOME BUILDING COMPANY
HAS PROVED TO Be FAKE


1t will be remembered that during
the past summer that the National
Home company of Spokane, Wash, did
considerable business in this city in
which they offered to loan money at
an almost unheard of low rate. 1t was
on inquiry learned at the time that
this concern had not deposited with
the proper state officials the deposit
required by our law Of foreign build
ing and loan associations. Now comes
the statement that the officers of this
concern were indicted by the grand
jury in Washington, the charge be-
ing that they used the United States
mails to defraud. 1t is claimed that
the company cannot live up to the
claims set forth in their contracts.
1t is also alleged that the postoffice
inspectors succeeded in getting letters
from investors who claim that the
company has not reformed it's part
of the contract as agreed, this it is
said has arisen largely from the fact
that certain claims were made by
agents of the company that were not

PRINTERCHARGED
With FORGERY

Velva, Dac. 81. J. Virgin, who
for the past three weeks has been
employed in the Journal office, disap-
peared rather suddenly and up to the
present time has not been heard
from, and in all probability he will
not put in an appearance in Velva
again for many moons.
The Journal editor was called out
of town last Saturday morning and
did not return until Tuesday morn
ing, when he discovered that three
blank checks were missing from his
check book and an investigation dis
closed that two had been cashed with
Frances name forged to them. The
checks were made payable to him and
Chas V. Swanson in the sums of $50
and $40 respectively, the latter check
being given in payment for a weeks
board at Hotel Berry. He was seen
to board train 107 here Saturday ev-
ening going west and he was known
to have boarded train 108 at Minot
the same night going east, evidently
making the double trip to throw his
acquaintance here off the scent. Vir-
gin was considered a pretty decent
sort of a fellow by everyone who
knew him and during his stay in the
city made many friends, likewis at
Sawyer and Minot, where he was for
merly employed, and the news that
he has committed the crime of forgery
comes as a shock to all.

of his homestead, as he thought he
was in danger of stopping some of the

Jenny Lind as child Of three years
was the lark Of her parents house. As
girl Of nine she attracted the atten-

her theoretical and technical studies,
when suddenly the full sweet sounds
came back. to the delight, as every
one knows, of thousands for many

MOB TAKES SLAYER FROM
JAIL AND FLEES WITH HIM
Convicted Murderer Had Tried TO
Escape Electric Chair BY Fasten-

LOVINGTON, Va, Oct. 21.-A mob
OF 75 mountaineers enraged because
John Moore, convicted murderer,
had attempted 10 escape the electric
chair by fastening his crime on
"moonshiners" entered the Jail here
early today, took Moore from his cell
and carried him off to the mountains.
His fate IL unknown.
Moore was convicted Saturday OF
poisoning Frank Howell with strych-
nine administered in whisky. In order
that he might marry his victims wife
In defending himself in court, he
claimed that Howell had been poison
ed by moonshiners, in revenge for
testimony once given by the former
to federal officers, and which resulted
in a series OF arrests.
The mountaineers got into the Jail
this morning by pretending they had
a prisoner they wanted locked up
Once inside they took the keys to
Moore's cell from the warden, hurried
their prisoner out, tied him to a
horse and rode into the mountains.
