Will Woodworth* son of Ancil Woodworth, who located on a ranch near Belle Fourche, S. Dak., had the misfortune to have his ranch shack burned down a few days ago. He had left home only about an, hour before land the, blaze was discovered across '.the prairie and he borrowed a horse and hurried back but the shack was a goner with all he had in it, including his new spring duds and all his vclothing except what he ha,d on his back. He had been saving money with which to prqye up his claim but will now have to use it to build another shack and defer proving up for a little while. Last winter he wag caught in a blizzard and almost froze to death, and he has decided that he is being handed a bunch of bad luck than he ought to have coming to him.
