FARMER JUMPS THROUGH FLAME AT OSMUS FARM
Spencer, Oct. 12. Fire destroyed a large part of George Osmus' farm buildings, a half mile west of Spencer, with damages over 3000 dollars. The barn and outbuildings burned, only the house and some structures saved. The cause remains a mystery. Mrs. Osmus noticed flames at 1 o'clock as the barn interior ignited, and Mr. Osmus escaped by jumping through fire. Neighbors aided with pails and a bucket brigade saving the house, corn crib, and tool shed.
