DESTROYED BY FJRE.
The Homo of John JOusten JBurncd to the
Ground Wednesday-
The flre whistle sounded Wednes- "
day afternoon for the flisb time sinee£
the Althouse dry kiln-burned. 'This
time ib was on account of flre which
completely destroyed the .home of
John Dusten at the east end of State
street. The firemen responded to bhe
alarm, but before they reached the
burning building, hungry flames had
done the work of destruction. But
their services were of no avail owing
to there being hot enougb hose to
reach the house from the nearest hydrant.
"Mr. Dusten had been building aa:ow
boatandheand his son, Monroe, were
barring ib. The bOF was watching
the ketble of boiling bar in the house
when his abtention was called from it
by his father, bub scarcely had be
passed the threshold when fche highly
infiamable liquid ignited. Mr. Dusten rushed into the house, grabbed
the kettle or tar and attempted to
throw it out into fche yard, bub because of the intense h'eab and suffocat-
ing smoke he dropped bhe ketble. Almost iustanbaneously bhe whole building was enveloped in flames, and nobh-
ing of the contents was saved excepting a few pieces of furniture and half
a dozen books. John was quite badly
burned by tbe tar and suffered considerable pain from inhalation of smoke
but his injuries are not serious. The.-
house was nofc insured.
iSTone bub those who have had asim-
ilar loss can realize the feelings of one
who is obliged to stand by and see his
home go up in smoke,
A papet was circulated ana many -
of our cibizens made donations, eibher
Of Cash or household goods.   Mr, Dusten will doubtless rebuild in the near
future,
