That a deliberate attempt wan made recently to burn the lartfe building oiTpled by Wise Bros., dry goods Htore and Merman War ner's meat market, there is practic ally no doubt, and that a serin us fire did not result Is probably due to the fact that that portion of the build ing where the Are was started was wet from recent rains. The fact that an attempt had been made to burn the building was dis covered Inst Wednesday by some email boys who were playing In the alley at the rear of the store. When 1ho store room was remodeled by Wise Itrofl. some weeks ago previous to taking possession, two small coun ters were removed to the alley and placed against the rear end of the liulldlng. While pining in the alley last Wednesday two young boys crawled behind tho counters whore they discovered evidence of a fire "having been started. They reported the matter to Hen Winn and Herman Wagner who went out to make an In vestigation. On removing the counters they found several pieces of charred kind ling which had been placed agalusl and partially beneath the building, and for a space of several Inches the structure was badly charred. That the flro had died out owing to the damp condition of tho shiplap on the building was evident. Klrst Impres sions were that hoys, accustomed to playing In the vicinity had thought lessly starter the blaze, but Investi gation showed that the stick from "which shavings wero whittled, show ed a long, straight stroko with a Ttnlfo which must have been In the hand of a person of considerably morn strength than would have been possible In u mere boy.
