JOHN WESLEY HOME
j. ... BURNED TO GROUND

/" The home of John Wesley, Four
teenth street and Dalton avenue,
burned to. the ground this morning,
at about z o'clock. The fire depart
ment made two runs, the first call
registered Beltrami and Fourteenth
street, and when the right call came
in the building was too far gone to
be saved. The house was two story
building and the loss is believed to be
between $4,000 and $4,000. The fire
started between the walls and is
thought to have been caused by an
overheated stove. Mr.. Wesley had
been painting and repairing the house
the past week, and getting it ready
for his family, which will move here
from Canada next week.

Today Mr.. Scales is inspecting the
