The residence of Jos. @. Forshee,
on Russell street, two blocks west of
the courthouse, was destroyed by fire
between five and six O'Clock Monday
morning. Mr.. Forshee had built a fire
in the kitchen stove which set the
flue On fire and from which the flames
were communicated to a room in the
second story. The alarm was given
and a number of citizens hurried to
the scene The flames had gained
such Roadway that the building could
not be saved but about all the furni-
was taken from the first floor. The
loss is considerable, partly covered
by insurance. The house was known
as the Nall home so long occupied by
the late G. B. Nall, for many years an
Ironton resident. Mr.. Forshee and
family are now domiciled in the resi-
dence on his farm, west of Ironton.
Holders of temporary bonds of the
fourth Liberty loan may o present
them to their banks to be changed
for permanent fourth Liberty loan
coupon bonds or registered bonds,
according to their wishes. AS was
done in the case of other Liberty

by which they are cancelled and for
warded to the Treasury Department
The Federal Reserve Bank, however,
does not receive bonds for exchange
from individuals.

have been reading with interest the
various accounts Of the freaks which
nature has brought forth this season.
] believe that the peculiar weather is
accountable for these. The dry weather
in the middle OF the summer seemed
to have the same effect on plants as
winter does In other words this last
growing season has been separated IN
10 two growing seasons by dormant
season of dry weather which had the
same effect on plant growth as winter
has. | think that scientists would ma
that many trees produced two rings OF

me that the Freak Tomato Plant de

Chinese SAILORS in
BATTLE With SLEUTHS
Two of Former Dead and
Two Detectives Badly In
jured On Phila. Pier.

Philadelphia, Feb. 5.-One Chinese
was shot to death. another is be-
lieVed to have been drowned and two
private detectives were beaten in a
battle on the deck Of Japanese
steamer here early today, MS 3S
Chinese sailors attempted to flee
ashore. One sailor managed to get
away from the steamer, but he was
captured after R long chase.
The injured detectives are Charles
G. Howe, Philadelphia and Joseph
Dumphy, Camden, N. J. Howe was
knocked unconscious by blow from
a bamboo rod, while Dumphy mar
rowly missed death from n hatchet
blow.
The fight occurred on the steamer
Chifuku Maru. which docked yester-
day with n cargo of sugar from Java.
AS soon as the steamer berthed, the
usual Gordon OF guards was thrown
about the vessel because of her
Chinese crew. Signs that the Chinese
intended to make a dash for freedom
were evident yesterday but the at
tack did not come until just before
daybreak when the crew made n
massed attack on guards patrolIing
the deck.
The detectives drew their pistols
which had no effect on some of the
Chinese and a hand-to-hand fight en-
sued. Reinforcements from shore
reached tho deck and many shots
were fired, mostly in the air.
One Chinese. who appeared to be
a leader, was shot dead through the
head, and one dived overheard in the
darkness and was not again seen.
The Chinese who reached shore es-
capped by means of a hawser, going
hand over hand.
Many of the Chinese were armed
with knives and daggers, but the pis-
tolls OF the detectives kept most OF
them from advancing. One Chinese
swung hatchet at Dumphy but in-
stead Of the sharp edge striking him,
the blunt end came down on his thigh
putting him out of the fight. With
the help of force Of police from a.
nearby station and a police boat. the
Chinese were finally driven to their
quarters.
