FORMER JOURNAL REPORTER AT DEMING WRITES TELLING OF THE LOCAL BOYS. Says the Evenings are Cool and for Sleep Can’t be Equalled – Is Pleased with the Camp. Deming, N.M., Sept. 21st. Journal Readers: The Sixth Nebraska is now settled in their training camp and the work of putting the finishing touches to the camp has about been completed. The site of the camp is on a sandy plain, two miles out from the town of Deming and is free of the sage brush and cactus that are so plentiful in this section of the world. The first days were spent in fixing up the streets in front of the tents of the different companies and in this work, the new soldiers joined heartily, with the result that everything is now in fine shape and the work together with the bracing mountain air has developed an appetite in the boys that is difficult to satisfy, although the food is excellent and plentifully [sic] in every way. The machine gun company, in which so many of the Plattsmouth boys are enrolled is one of the neatest in the camp and the members are preparing to enter the second stage of their training as soldiers. There are many thousands of men camped here and in the troops are to be found many Plattsmouth boys. When the Journal arrives it is eagerly searched for news of the old town. In Company B of the 6th Neb., are Verdon VROMAN and William BALDWIN, who resided south of the city. The Fifth regiment has several others in their ranks. Tom WALLING in Company D, of Auburn, John PALACEK, in Company E of North Platte, Ralph LARSON in Wymore company, who are camped next to the 6th in Camp Cody. Bert SPIES, son of Mr. and Mrs. Herman SPIES, of Plattsmouth, is in Camp Cody as a member of the Signal corps. In the Fourth regiment there are quite a few of the lads from Plattsmouth and the boys who were on guard at the Burlington bridge during the past summer. These members of Uncle Sam’s! fighting force joined in a welcome to the 6th regiment. Frank ASHENBREME, Julius KALASEK, Claude RICHARDSON, Kenneth MC CARTHY, Wayne ALLEN, are the boys from here, while John MURPHY, Jack DAILY, Charley JOHNSON, Art GUSTAFSON, Joe ALDRICH and the others well known in Plattsmouth, are right on the job and busy in drilling. The Fourth has a fine site for their camp just outside of Deming. There has been no sickness among the Plattsmouth colony and all are well pleased with the military camp. The climate is fine and so far the days have been marked by light rains which have laid the sand in fine shape. The evenings are cool and for sleep could not be equaled. FRANK H. SMITH

Wiles, South of Town, Very Mysteriously Destroyed by Fire Friday Afternoon. >From Saturday’s Daily. Yesterday afternoon the beautiful country home of Joseph E. Wiles, two miles west of the city on the Louisville road, was completely destroyed by fire, the origin of which was unknown. The first known of the fire was a few minutes past 2 o’clock when two farmers passing by saw the roof in flames, and rushed in to alarm the family. Mrs. WILES was at home at the time, but her husband was absent in Omaha, and a soon as she learned of the fire she rushed to the second floor, where the first signs of the flames was found in the falling plastering, and secured the valuable papers belonging to Mr. Wiles, and while she was thus engaged a large piece of the plastering fell, striking her on the back of the head and knocking her to the floor, but she was able with the assistance of Robert WINDHAM, who was working at the Wiles home doing some electric wiring, to reach the first floor of the house, which was yet untouched by the blaze. The alarm on the telephone brought a large ! number of the neighbors to the scene and they rendered splendid service in saving the household goods, and the greater part of the valuable and costly furniture in the rooms on the first floor of the house was saved from the flames. The efforts of Mrs. Wiles and the neighbors to extinguish the flames or check their progress was without avail as the blaze soon spread all over the upper floor and the charred and blazing timbers supporting the roof fell, scattering their fiery touch through the remainder of the house, and by 4 o’clock there was nothing remaining of the once beautiful home save the two tall brick chimneys, which defying the flames, stood over the smouldering ruins. The origin of the fire is unknown as there had been no fire at all in the house for several weeks save that of a small oil stove in the kitchen, which was far from the spot where the flames were first noticed breaking through the roof. The house had been for years one of the most handsome mansions in this part of the county, and was built in 1883, by the late J.C. CUMMINS, and was for years the home of the Cummins family.
