famous COMBUSTION.


Spontaneous combustion in green
hay is supposed to have caused a big
blaze on the Albert DiVall farm three
miles west of Montfort last Saturday
at 5 p. m.
Mr.. DiVall and family had gone to
Dodgeville for the afternoon leaving
one small boy on the place. The boy,
15 years, was helpless before the adj
vancing flames. The DiValls return
ed to find the large part of their prop
erty in ashes.
Neighbors noticed the blaze and
summoned help but the fire was too
hot to permit any one coming close.
AS result the hay and cattle barn
and its contents, a chicken house and
another small barn were entirely de-
stroyed. Efforts to save the house
and another small building were
successful. Corn 200 feet from the
fire was badly scorched evidencing
the heat.
Mr.. DiVall was insured in the Mu-
tual of Liberty. His losses are 1890
