Tolen wa3 burned to death in the fire. It was at first reported that the barn was deliberately set on fire, but Mr. Snow attributes it to the man who lost his life, as lip was a char acter about town known to be so careless in his smoking habits that no one liked to give him a room. It was also erroneously reported here that Mr. Snow's home was burned. It is reported that about 60 tons of hay and some livestock were burned with the burn. The loss is placed at $1500 to $2,000. with no insurance. The rumors of incendiarism were probably due to Mr. Snow's having received threatening letters, signed K. K. K., which are disclaimed by members of that organization. Mayor Snow, according to Condon people re cently at Dayville, does not attribute the fire to incendiarism, but to the careless habits of tho man who lost his life. Condon Globe-Times.
