Destructive Fire.

Last Sunday morning the block Of
frame buildings on Fifth street, occu
pied by Camp & Gillespie, furniture
Jos. Brom, harness, and Dahl & Co.,
furniture, was destroyed by fire.
The fire was discovered about two
o'clock in the morning in the second
story of the centre building, from
whence it rapidly spread to the other
two. An alarm was turned in and
the Ore company was promptly on the
ground and did first class work in
saving the adjoining property. 1t was
a bitter cold night, being fully TWEEN
ty-fve below zero, and the boys had
to work at a great disadvantage, and
it looked at one time as though they
would be unable to confne the fire to
these three buildings.
A small amount Of the stock of
Camp & Gillespie was taken out, as
also that of Jos. Brom, while Dahl Il
Co. saved nearly all of theirs.
Two of the buildings belonged to
G. E. Camp, while the third, that oc-
cupied by Dahl, was owned by Chas.
Wilson.
The losses and insurance are as
follows: G.. E. Camp, loss on build
ings, $1,000; insurance, $1,000. Chas.
Wilson, loss on building, $500; no
insurance. Camp & Gillespie, loss on
stock, $4,000; insurance, $1,000. Jos.
Brom, loss on stock, 81 800; insurance,
$500. Dahl & Co., loss small, COW
cred by insurance.
This is the most destructive fire
that has visited Morris in three years,
and but for the gallant work of the
fire company and other citizens the
loss would have been very much
larger.
NOTES.
Camp & Gillespie moved what was
saved of their furniture stock into the
Spooner building, next door to HUI
burd's drug store.
Jos. Brom's stock was moved into
the store of Syverson & Thorstad on
Fifth street.

row escape from destruction. 1t got

M. F. Finnegan moved all of his

badly that about one-third of the
water pumped n ever reach the fire at

Of phenomenon if a man who can

of S2,50O,0O0 can be given such title.
Carl Overland of that place, was the
recipient of an Inheritance last week

eminent bonds Of Germany. In the
early part of this century a wealthy
Swede loaned 20,0OO,O0O francs to the
German government, which sum was
expended i'll one of the Napoleon;c

again taken up and payment ordered.
The amount of the debt with interest
is S1G,0OO,0OO, and the inheritance is

One memorable event in the family
occurred during the social season that

Col Coppinger was a disciple Of ia.

1t was known as the Garnett house,

Esq, Forrestville, Mich, in 1855
Stone was used as the cheapest and
best material for the exposed parts, al
though brick will answer as well. It
is built in a clay bank so steep that
while the entrance at the front is on
level With the ground, the top Of the
wall IS but six inches above the ground
at the rear. The size is 16x24 feet and
the wall is ~ feet high in the clear, 20
inches thick at the bottom for A feet
high, then jog Of eight inches is made
on the inside and the wall for the upper
four feet is but II inches thick. The
s-inch space at the top is filed with
pine leaves, kept in place by laying
2x6 joists in mortar on top Of log and
setting 2x4 studding even with inside
wall, then mailing shiplap boards on
the studding This prevents the en-
trance of frost through the top of the
wall, and it has remained perfectly dry
during the three years it has been used.
The floor over the cellar is made by
first putting a set of 2x4 joists 16
inches apart, ceiling with s-inch
shiplap boards on the under side,
then filling to top of joists with
sawdust and laying a floor OF
matched boards on top, covering 1t with
tarred paper, repeating this process
three times. This makes a floor 70
inches thick of alternate layers of
