man left at II O'Clock. Owing to
the prompt work of the fire company
and the efficiency of the water works
the entire west side of the square was
saved from the fiery fiend. Seven
minutes after the alarm was sounded
stream was thrown ON the fire,
which, at that time, promised to
burn the best block in town. Mr..
Llewellyn had no insurance and his
loss will be fully $4,000. He will at
once erect new brick building and
put in new plant. He is man of
nerve and has been through three
disastrous fires, always coming out
with renewed energy. He will be
running as usual in less than two
months. Mexico is now in darkness
and the people can appreciate what
Llewellyn's enterprise is worth to the
town. He is not discouraged, as
many men would be, but goes to
work before the fire is out. We
trust he will receive that encourage
ment from our business men which
he so richly deserves.
