AT GALVESTON
(By United Press)

Galveston, Tex, Oct. 1.-Investiga-
tions to determine the origin of yes
terday's two million dollar fire have
produced no results, it was officially
said today by Fire Chief Ryan. Mys-
terry surrounds its start.
Twenty-four hours before the fire,
Chief Ryan received letter from a
city in Canada, warning him that "you
are going to be destroyed"
A complete check today showed that
the flames destroyed 140 pieces of
property. This included many frame
buildings and shacks in the negro
quarters.
A part of the grain in 40 freight
cars caught in the fire was saved,
workmen unloading it before the
flames reached that point on the water
front.

DAILY
V|LON|A MAIL
BEGINS TODAY

Making his first trip from Vilonia
to Conway this morning in one hour
and 10 minutes, Contractor Charles
c. Holt today inaugurated the new
double-daily star route mail service
from Conway to Vilonia. Mr. Holt
IS using Ford car in which to trans

patch mail on train No. 104. arriving

rier reaching Vilonia about 7 D. m.

be carried between Vilonia and Con-
way, the tri p being made in the morn
ing.
When the hard surfaced road now
carrier will be able to make the trip
in 80 to 40 minutes.
The new service is said to be the
best given any inland town in the
state. 1t is due largely to the eff
forts of the enterprising postmaster,
Wallace Grady, who has developed the
office from a fourth-class to a presi-
dental office, with five we'll patroniz-
ed rural routes.
One of the conveniences of the new
service will be the delivery of the Log

lonia within two or three hours after
1T comes from the press here, giving
the people of Vilonia and vicinity prac-
tically the same delivery as is given
the people of Conway.
