ly reported by d. w. Rose, a game

any day grazing in company with

of him was made by stalking up be-

out of range, when snap shot OF

a stranger was in their midst.
The most natural explanation of the
unusual behavior of this buck is that

and four children were sleeping very
contentedly this morning at their res.

smoke began to fill the house and to
awaken those persons who might 9th
erwise have ben victims of a very
bad fire. Before the fire department
could be called good sized blaze hal
mad excellent Roadway and soon TN,
fire swept through all three floors
from the basement to the upstairs
and at somewhere around five this
! morning when 1t was all over the
damage was pronounced as very
great.
| The fire started at $3.50 before day
, light and soon the family were dress
ed somehow and out, appealing to
next door neighbors for shelter, sure
| the house was doomed and would all
go.
The fire department is reported tc
have fought bravely and well and to
ave saved the house from total de-
structfon the inside of the house was
burned badly from the back all the
way from the basement to the roof.
The blaze was stopped before 1t
reached the roof. The front Of the
house was not burned and the fam
lily are staying there. Damage esti-
mate has not been set but the resi-.
dents say it will doubtless amount to
a great deal. The house is owned
by Mrs. Jonathan Arnett of Watson
