Two hundred and sixty-three horses were burned to death in a fire that early Sunday morning destroyed the stables of the Arthur W. Dixon Transfer Co., in Chicago, causing a loss amounting to $500,000. The cause of the fire is unknown. The hot weather causes the making of less country butter and the increased sale of cream. Almost all cream points report heavier receipts. The Surrey creamery reports big gains, but under the management of the prompt and genial Kaiser it is not to be wondered at. Lloyd and Leland Jessen will leave tomorrow for Arizona, where they will take positions as telegraph operators on the Southern Pacific railroad near Yuma.
