Fire at Downey City.

On Sunday morning about two
O'Clock fire broke out at Downey
and before it could be extinguished
destroyed large portion of that
fourishiug town. The fire started
in Hutchins's butcher shop, adjoin-
ing Metrovich's brick store, and
quickly spread to adjoining build
ings. The Missouri House,
Smiths shoe shop, Shortridge's
saddlery shop, Jansen & Greening's
store, Bailey's drug store and DR..
Jones' office were soon destroyed.
An Intervening lot and copious
supply of water and liberal appli-
cation OF salt saved the Outlook of
flee and stopped the conflagration,
otherwise the entire town would
probably have been destroyed. The
total loss is probably $25, 000-in-
sured for about Sl2, 900, distributed
among the following companies:
On the hotel, $4,000, in the Lyco-
ming, Phoenix, New Orleans and
Home, of Columbus; on Jansen &

be taught lesson in courtesy and
