WILKES HOME DESTROYED
BY FIRE SATURDAY NIGHT

| Saturday night shortly after 10
o'clock the homo of Mr.. Wilkes in
ozone Park caught fire and burned
almost to the ground, the entire in
side being total wreck.
The fire department was soon on
, the scene, but on account of the fire
gaining considerable Roadway be-
fore it was discovered, and being re-
moved from the center of the city
a considerable distance it was impos-
sible for the tiremen to save the
house, although they eXtinguished
! the flames as soon as they reached
: the scene.
The house was unoccupied; how
ever, it contained all of Mr.. Wilkes
! furniture, which was a total loss.
Mr.. Wilkes had been at the house
Saturday afternoon and built a
small fire, and in some way it is
f, supposed that the house caught
therefrom, although this may not be
the case. Mr.. Wilkes estimates his
loss on the furniture to be $4,000
and the house at $4,000, both only
partially covered by insurance.
Sunday morning early the depart
ment was again called to the house
where a blaze had again started
among the ruins.
