Buiidings on the M. R. Hook Ranch Burned to the Ground. Farmer Brown’s R2sldence and Contents Consumed — Blaze Spreads Over Flelds. RED BLUFF, CaL, July 3.—Tehama County has had more than its share of fires witkin the last twenty-four hour:, On Friday afternoon the house of M. V. Brown, about nine miles northwest of Red B uff, was burned to theground, with its contents. Noons was av home when the fire started, and the family returned in time to see the building burn, but not to save any of the contents. The loss was about $800 and the insurance $500. The Tyler mansion, about nine miles southeast of Red Biuff, burned this morn- ing. It was erected in 1882 by J. C. Tyler at a cost of nearly $50,000, and was ove of the finest residences in the northern part of the State. About two vears ago, just before the death of Mr. Tyler, the ranch together with the residence passed into the hand. of the San Francisco Savings Union, and the property is still owned by that insutution. Mr-, Tyler and family resided in_the building up to the time of the fire. When the biazs was first discovered it was burning in the roof, and is supposed to have started from cinders from the flue. Nothing can be learned here as to the amount of insurance. Th: building was an entire loss, though some of the contents were saved. Just belore noon to-day the tankhouse, about forty feet east of the residence of M. R. Hook, near Red Biuff, was discov- ered to be on fira. The blaze is supposed have started from coals in a bucket of ashes. When the tank fell the water sup- ply was cut off and everything was at the mercy of the flames, which soon commu- nicatea with the residence, bringing it to ground. But liitle of the contents were saved, the wind causing tue fire to make rapid progress. The fire spread south through several fields, burning dry grass and stubble and on the Kent place g small unoccupied building, being checked only at the creek, two miles distant. The residence and outbuildings of R. C. Samuel were saved by hard work. Mr. Hook’s loss is bhetween $6000 and $7000, with an insurcace of $2500 on the house and $800 on the contente.
