was on fire. No one was i'm the building
at the time, so that il is not known how il
originated, hut as those, who were first on

were consumed and the loss is estimated
at about $500. with an insurance OF
$1,000. The building had only recently
been put up, and as the owners had only
been i'm business "a short time and with n
