The farm home of Mr.. and
Mrs. c.. L. Sanderson south
west of the city came near
burning to the ground last
Sunday during the high wind.
Mr.. Sanderson put on a fire in
the kitchen range and went to
the barn and when he came
back found that the high wind
had created such a draft that
the stove had become over
heated to such an extent that
it had set fire to the wood be-
tween the walls and had such
a start that it reached the roof
and burned through before he
and some neighbors whom he
had called could he c k
it. Mrs. Sanderson and her
week old baby were removed
to the barn until the danger
was passed. 1t was a very
narrow escape and only the
abundance of snow with which
the fire was smothered, saved
the house from destruction
