Mn.tNo, Oct. 2.'. Yesterday about the
hour of 1:30 P. M. as Linton Paine was
coming from Liberal ho discovered Unit the
barn of Mr. Mulvey was on lire. When he
lirstsawthe barn the llames were hidden
beneath the roof, but In a inn nt the en
tire building was a mass of tinmen, which
showed the fact that the lire hud sturied
front the center of the barn in the hay. The
tire seems lo have been caused by an inceu
dury, as Frank had been at the barn a short
time before the blare was first discovered,
but did not see or notice anv one around
the barn, The loss was ten tons of hay,
W bushels of oats, 2.V1 bushels of potatoes,
and I.W bushels of wheat, besides quite a
mow of straw, one tine steel frame self
binder, wagon bed, and many small valua
ble fixtures that are necessarily required
about a farm. The scene at 7 o'clock was
still attracting the attention f the people.
The heaps of grain were sending up a while
smoke while the hay still made a very great
heat. Many of the neighbors gave assist
ance but the Haines were beyond their man
agement, and consequently all had to go
through the tire. The grain will not be a
toial loss, as that which is only scorched
will tie used to feed hogs. The entire loss
will fully reach f'xM. i
