Two Fires in Twelve Hours.

Between midnight Tuesday and
noon Wedne sday La Junta had two
fires. neither of which resulted In
much property damage being done.
Shortly after midnight Tuesday. a
small house on West Second street.
occupied by a Mexican and owned by
Mrs. Sarah Miller. was burned to
the ground. There was no one In
the house at the time and the ORR
gin OF the fire is mystery. The
Mexican who had 1t rented is work
ing in the beet fields and his wife
had gone to her mothers to spend the
night. They lost everything they
had In the house.
Shortly after noon Wednesday there
was another alarm OF fire. and a
quick response was made by the fire
team. The blaze was in a stack Of
straw at Clyde Larson's place south
OF town. The location OF the fire
was outside Of the fire hydrant
district, but the flames were easily
extinguished by the aid OF few
buckets OF water manipulated by La
Junta's brave fire laddies and the
only damage resulting was scorch-
ed chicken coop.

But Heine Schmid and his war club
outguessed Ruby and the rally that
ven yesterdays game was started.
Heine hasn't been utility man
very long. He used TO occupy third
regularly until he split his thumb in
the Omaha series at home here. That
~ him out of the game couple of
weeks. But Heine had his little
revenge yesterday. And his little
revenge put the Izzylads far up at
the summit
Heine Schmid is almost home tai
ent In Pueblo. He was born In La
Jmta In 1889 and has been playing
the grand old game up and down the
Arkansas Valley ever since.
He was first installed in the Hall
Of Fame at Colorado College in Col

for three years and closed his college
baseball career as captain In 1907.
u was In 1906 when Schmid was play
