There is every indication that the fire was the result of an attempt at incendiarism. Two Japanese orchard hands while passing the home of Rev, James Morgan, a colored Baptist minister, discovered the north end of the house in flames, while fire was shooting from beneath the building. The Japanese nearest neighbor, responded. ‘Fortanately a large barrel of water stood in Morgan’s, yard, and Bullock and~ the Japanese went tc work with buckets. The six children, who had been locked in the house, were carried out almost unconscious, -That the fire was a deliberate attempt at incendiarigm is the belief of Mrs. Morgan and the men who fought the flames, The latter declare that the fames of coal oil were strong, and especially so in the cellar, where the fire originated. Mre. Morgan had come into Lodi from her home, which is on the Cherokee lane, a half mile east of town, with her eldest son, leaving. her other six little ones alone {n the houser with the doors locked, They had no light, and no fire had been in the stove for several hours. Shortly before the neighbors arrived to awake the sleeping children the oldest girl was awakened by the watch dog, which barked and rau back and forth on the front porch in an excited manner. She looked through the window and saw @ woman and a boy approach the gate, but thinking it her mother and brother returning paid no more attention to them or the dog. Then she: dropped off to sleep. The next thing she remembered was the arrival of Bullock, who yelled to her that the house was on fire. The Morgans had no oil of any sort in the cellar. Their-oil can was at the rear of the house, in its usual place and none had been taken from it. A Noted Missionary. Dr. G. B, Smyth, who is to speak a3 the Methodist charch tomorrow morning, addressed the students of Stanford University last Sunday.

There is every indication that the fire was the result of an attempt at incendiarism. Two Japanese orchard hands while passing the home of Rev, James Morgan, a colored Baptist minister, discovered the north end of the house in flames, while fire was shooting from beneath the building. The Japanese nearest neighbor, responded. ‘Fortanately a large barrel of water stood in Morgan’s, yard, and Bullock and~ the Japanese went tc work with buckets. The six children, who had been locked in the house, were carried out almost unconscious, -That the fire was a deliberate attempt at incendiarigm is the belief of Mrs. Morgan and the men who fought the flames, The latter declare that the fames of coal oil were strong, and especially so in the cellar, where the fire originated. Mre. Morgan had come into Lodi from her home, which is on the Cherokee lane, a half mile east of town, with her eldest son, leaving. her other six little ones alone {n the houser with the doors locked, They had no light, and no fire had been in the stove for several hours. Shortly before the neighbors arrived to awake the sleeping children the oldest girl was awakened by the watch dog, which barked and rau back and forth on the front porch in an excited manner. She looked through the window and saw @ woman and a boy approach the gate, but thinking it her mother and brother returning paid no more attention to them or the dog. Then she: dropped off to sleep. The next thing she remembered was the arrival of Bullock, who yelled to her that the house was on fire. The Morgans had no oil of any sort in the cellar. Their-oil can was at the rear of the house, in its usual place and none had been taken from it. A Noted Missionary. Dr. G. B, Smyth, who is to speak a3 the Methodist charch tomorrow morning, addressed the students of Stanford University last Sunday.
