fire" rang through the city, causing a
TASTY departure f,r the scene "f the con.

owned by Mr.. Freeman, Of Kansas, and
occupied by W. D. Phillips: The fire
probably caught from defective chimney.
Although vigorous eff 'r,s were made t.'
put "u, the fire they proved unavailine,
Mr. Phillips goods were nearly all rem',v.
I'd bu. in a damaged condition. The
goods were fully insured As was the house
