FIRE m ALrooSA--On Sunday night a week. the
store of John H. Fretchey was consumed by 6re
The meat market house, adjoining the store was
torn away, thus preventing the fire from being com
nunieated to Miss Jennie Scott's house. slight
snow, which had fallen in the early part of the
night, prevented the sparks from setting fire to the
roof of other houses on which they fell. How the
fire originated is not certainly known but it sup
posed to be the work of an incendiary There was
no fire in the store on Sunday. The clerk, who
sleeps in the store, was awakened by the smoke
which came up through the floor the back part Of
the building. He had hardly time to get out
through the window, with only his shirt and panta
looms, as the floor was giving away when he was
awakened Almost everything in the store was
burned. We have not heard an estimate of the loss,
but understand it is fully covered BY insurance.
