Forty men, including the 10 men comprising the state road gang, are battling with a forest fire raging in the Big Horn mountains in the vicinity of Black Mountain. The fire is presumably from the fire of campers and is in a dense growth of lodgepole pine and spruce.

The funeral of the late Herbert A. Coffeen, who died Thursday at Pasadena, Calif., was held at 4 o’clock today at the home of Edward Gillette.

Mrs. Mary J. Taylor left tonight for a month’s visit with relatives in Lincoln and Omaha.
