LANDMARK BURNED
 IN EARLY MORNING
Destruction of the Former A. C. Baker
 Residence On North Second

A loss of nearly two thousand dol lars and the passing of one of the old landmarks of the town, was the result yesterday morning when the siX-room frame house on North Sec ond avenue, just north of Merryman x Hayts undertaking parlors caught fire and burned to the ground.
 The fire was discovered about 4:45 o'clock d. m. by AIr. and Mrs. John M Hutchinson. in the rear of the room in which they were sleeping, when it had gained such headway that they were forced to flee. grab bing handful of clothes as they went Four other roomers also fared little better. and furniture and all was total loss. The furniture was owned by T. J. Walker of Long Beach. and the house by H. B. Will kinson. who has a small amount of insurance on the building.
 MT Hutchinson had S75 in bills in the house, which also perished in the flames. and with their furniture. clothes and other things which also went. they were left in position to start life over again. A few months ago he and Mrs. Hutchinson lost a son. and it seems their troubles are multiplying MT Hutchinson is a carpenter and has been working on the Adams hotel until lately.
 When the fire was at its height. someone said man with rheumatism was in one of the rooms. and was unable to get out. but the firemen went back in. broke open the door and found that the man had crawled out through the window.
 The four firemen on the job had things pretty well their own way, and with one each on a wagon, it kept the other one working hard to connect the hose. the nozzle, and di- rect the heavy hose on the fire. Not many of the volunteers showed up, as the alarm was not generally heard. Women at the house two doors north helped the firemen and gave them a little breakfast after the fire.
 The origin of the fire has not been determined. and probably never will be. though the theory of defective electric wires is advanced as d pos sible cause

it and began to raise hay after the
