FIRE AT WINCFIELD RANCH
BURNS BARNS AND ANIMALS

Fire which broke out in the COW
and horse barn on the Wingield
ranch in the Island district at 3
O'Clock yesterday morning, con-
sumed a horse and mule and one
buck and completely destroyed the
building.
The first intimation OF its pres
ence was through the cracking OF
the blaze which awoke the employ
ees sleeping nearby.
The fire had gained such headway
and there was such a high wind pre-
vailing at the time and with the lin
tied facilities at hand all hope of
saving any part of the building was
abandoned.
Attention was Immediately direct
ed toward rescuing the animals
from danger and through the prompt
action of herder, in tearing down
fences, herd of sheep in nearby
corral was rescued.
The loss is about $1,000 on which
is insurance of $500. The origin of
the fire is unknown.

ENCOURAGING PROSPECTS
FOR PUBLIC READING ROOM
Meeting Sunday Night to Further
Plans of Draper Club; Active
Committee Selected

The meeting held at the NJ Il.
church Sunday night to further the
plans of the Draper Club for a read
ing room, attracted a goodly attend
ance of men and women interested
in the movement.
There were brief talks upon the
different aspects of the question in
its relation to the social, moral and
business side of the community by
Mrs. f. K. Nichols, Professor d. w.
Lindsay. w. K Davis, Eli Cam and
J. p. Fay.
At the close of the addresses a
committee was appointed to join
with the committee from the Draper
Club, to call upon the Board of Com
missioners and the City Council to
ask that a suitable appropriation be
made for the opening and mainte-
nance of reading room, which it
was the expressed hope of the meet
ing would also include a library
The committee was composed of E.
p. Osgood, r. f. Hartley and w. x.
Davis and they were requested to
call upon the Board of Commission
ers the following Tuesday
Special music of most pleasing
character under the direction of w.
X. Davis was rendered, and follow
iup tho hon eJioti,n NV Do,
Wachob the meeting adjourned.
The above committee met with
Mesdames. Geo. B. Williams, A. ].
Aikens, F.. E. Nichols and ]. L.
Smith Tuesday morning and appear
ed before the Board of County Com
missioners and presented their re-
quest.
They were met with the utmost
eordiality and it was represented to
them by District Attorney Kenny
that an appropriation at this time
could not be legally made by the
board, but he outlined a course of
procedure whereby such an approp-
ration could be made and the COM
mittee after expressing their thanks,
to the members of the board and to
the District Attorney for the encour-
agement given, left with the agree
ment to wait upon the City Council
last night
E.. Those interested in the plan pro-
pose at once to organize the differ
ent districts according to the sug-
gestions of District Attorney Kenny
and it is believed that in the very
near future the long needed room
for men will be a reality.
