FIRE DESTROYS LARGE BARN
Horses and Other Personal Property
Burned on ]. w. Peterson Farm.

A fire which was supposed to be of
incendiary origin destroyed the large
barn of John w. Peterson at his farm
home six miles southwest Of Atwat-
er late last Saturday night. One of
his most valuable horses was burned
to death and all the harnesses, be-
sides about Is tons Of hay and set
ting Of six stacks of oats were total
ly destroyed.
It was some time between 10 and
II o'clock when the fire was first dis
covered by the family. The fire had
made such Roadway then that it was
with the most strenuous effort that
some Of the horses were saved. When
Mr.. Peterson reached the barn the
animals were frantic. There were six
horses and he managed to unite three
Of them. Two broke loose from their
matters and the other persisted in the
flames. The latter was one of the
team of working horses whose mate
was severely burned but at this writ
ing is still alive.
The six stacks of oats were in a
setting located about 20 rods from
the barn and this did not burn until
some time after the building had
been destroyed. A peculiar circum-
stance was the fact that there were
two settings of wheat closer to the
barn which were left safe. AS the
wind was blowing in an opposite d.
rection it was not thought possible
that the grain could have been set
afire from sparks. The Peterson fam
.ly is strongly Of the opinion that
the fire was caused by some mis-
creant, as everything indicates that
it was of an incendiary origin. None
Of the members Of the family had
been in the barn since 6 o'clock,
Mr.. Peterson CARVED insurance on
the property, but as it was not fully
covered the loss will be quite heavy.
The building was insured for only
$500, and Of that amount he will re-
cover only $500 from the insurance
company. - Atwater Republican

Tiers Pulse Before Hills
vile Tragedy.

WYTHEvILLE. Va, July 5.-The case
Allen for killing Prosecuting Attorney
March IA, at Hillsvile was resumed this
morning at $50 o'clock.
8. B. Weddle. the first witness called
by the commonwealth, testified that
Floyd Allen told him that if he was con-
victed he would kill Foster before sun
down. Isaac Martin. the next witness,
testified that Floyd Allen said he could
not get fair trial in Carroll County and
that he would compromise and pay fine.
but that If they sent him to the peni-
tentiary they would have to make a box
for him."
Exception was taken to these questions
and answers because, while they were
intended to prove conspiracy, it was con-
tended by the defense that Claude Allen,
the prisoner, was not present and there
was no evidence that the statements had
ever been communicated to him.
Felt Fathers Pulse.
Sidney Sprecker testified that on the
evening before the tragedy. and while
the jury was out and expected in court

Sprecker's. Joseph A. Banks. witness
who was not examined in the previous
trials took the stand and corroborated
King and Sprecker as to Claude Allen
taking hold of his fathers wrist and to
their whispering but said he was too far
off to hear what was said.
c. L. Powell. foreman Of the jury which
convicted Floyd Allen and who was pres
ent at the tragedy, gave a detailed ac-
count of what occurred at the time. His
evidence was in line with that of those
witnesses who had heretofore testified as
to the facts and circumstances.

Leads to Suggestion That

Los ANGELES, Cal, July 5.-"Sleeping
over it did not serve to clarity to any
extent the confusion that followed the
end of yesterdays championship light
weight fight between Ad Wolgast and
Joe Rivers. at Vernon. The cries of

giving the $500 diamond belt to the cham
pion.
Scores of men who were among the
11.0p0 spectators called at the offices Of
the Pacific Athletic Club to suggest that
the boys be sent. together in another
twenty-round battle to decide finally the
question of supremacy.
Rivers and his manager. Joe Levy, ex-
pressed willingness to fight the battle over
again. but Wolgast and his business di-
rector, Tom Jones, maintained silence. If
