Man Meets Frightful Fate In t»
South Texas Fire.
At Tiger liend, in YVharton county,'
Texas. Winfield McCauley was burned
to death and the saloon of Joe Bur-
gher destroyed by tire as the result of
the futile attempt of burglars to crack
the saloon safe.
The burglars robbed the cash regis- j
ter of a small amount, took Irom the
bur stock what they wanted and on- ,
deavored to force entrance into the I
large iron safe. A chisel was used to |
remove the combination handle and |
an effort made to break the iloor of |
tfie safe, but without avail, the strong
box withstanding the yegg men'a ef-
forts.
Home minutes afterward fire was dis-
covered, the flames having already en-
veloped the building and cut off every
avenue of escape for McCauley, who
slept in an upstairs room. His body
was burned almost beyond recogni- I
tion. Loss is $”,000.
An investigation was at once set on
foot by the authorities.

"Comparative Value in Texas and

This difference in price is largely
due to the grade of horses. By im-
proving tlie grade we can add about
$-40,000,000 to live stock values of the
state. This is equal to $10 per capita
and would be net money to the tanner a
as it costs no more to raise a good
horse than it dots a poor one.
