North Dakota's Capital City Has a Mar
row Escape from Destruction.
BISMARCK, N. D., March 25.-With the
wind blowing at the rate of eighty miles
an hour, the city of Bismarck narrowly
escaped being swept away by fire. Only
the valiant service of the firemen saved
the town from destruction. Several
buildings in the business part of the city
were consumed by flames. Sparks fly
ing from the ruins and flaming timbers
were carried by the fierce hurricane to
to the outskirts of the city and ignited
several dwellings, which were rapidly
reduced to ashes.
1t was the largest and most disastrous
confagration witnessed in Bismarck for
many years. Half q dozen people were
reused from their burning buildings just
in time to escape cremation. Among
the buildings destroyed were: The
old opera house belonging to Joseph
Hare, valued at $1,000; the laundry
building owned by George P. Flannery,
of Minneapolis, value, $500; the Judkint
gallery building, owned by J.. NJ. Ander.
son, loss $500; Mr.. Judkins' loss is 81, 900
the Quinlan buildings south of the track,
valued at $500, were also lost. The cause
Of the fire is unknown, but the fact thai
it originated at a point removed from
fire of any description gives good ground
for suspicion that it was incendiary.
