Snyder came near having a house
burning last Saturday night. MIR. Alb
bott and family who live a short dis
tance east Of the north ward school
building attended the carnival Sat
urday night. Upon reaching home
/. they found the magazine set and al
most ready to do It's destructive
work.
The house is built with middle
room, with other rooms at each OF
the four sides, In this middle room
the family found a paste board box
in which a short candle was burning.
Around the candle were parts OF
newspapers, and the box. the papers
and the floor for several feet around
had been well oiled with kerosene.
Only few minutes longer and the
candle would have beea burned down
to the oiled paper and conflagra-
tion would have been set off.
II is said that the wolud-be fire
bug had entered through a side room
and prepared his trap. In working
about II. the evidence shows that he
got oil on his shoe soles for It was
noted that he had pushed open the
doors to two other rooms and made
a step into each. presumably looking
to see that no one was In. or to see
the combustlble nature Of the con-
tents and also to have the doors open
so the flames could do quick work.
Fortunately the family went home
before the Carnival closed, else they
would have been burned out. It is
understood that the house was sold
a short time ago by Riley Many to
Homer Gotten.
