Deputy Sheriff Hall, of Yelm, brought in, Saturday, a man named Meyer, who had had his feet and legs badly burned at a camp-fire. It seems that he had built the fire to keep himself warm after being belated in the woods. The fire caught his clothing while asleep and did not awaken him until dangerously ablaze.

The body of a dead man was found lying in a pool of blood, in an open field, about a mile and a half east of Yelm, early Wednesday morning. A bloody razor by his side indicated the mode of his death. He was about 40 years of age. A worn pocketbook on the deceased, with several receipts made out to Fred. Williams and Fred. Williamson may serve on investigation, to establish his identity. Acting Coroner Sticklin took charge of the body.
