HAY WAREHOUSE
 DESTROYED BY FIRE

TEMPE, Feb. 23.-Tempe was the scene of another big fire early Wednes- day morning when the large hay ware house on Fourth and Ash streets be- | longing to A. J. Peters was destroyed A party of 16 Mexican cotton pickers | cnmped at the side of the building | early in the evening and were ordered away at two different times by the 1 officers, but returned later. The idea is prevalent that a spark from their l campfire reached the interior of the l building in some unknown way and thus started the fire. The blaze was ! discovered about 2:30 o'clock and the alarm was given immediately, but the flames were beyond control before help arrived. The hay in the building had not been checked for some time so the exact loss is not known. It was partly covered by insurance
