The Company Sustains Loss OF
$4,000 Insured for about
One-Ha1f Its Real Value.
Four Dwelling Houses Burned

Last Tuesday this city was visited by
the most serious fire which she has ex-
perienced in her history.
A few minutes before twelve o'clock
fire broke out in the Gerry Lumber
Cos. lumber yard and before it could
be extinguished twenty-five or thirty
acres which that morning had been
covered with lumber piles was a
burned waste covered only with ashes
and cinders and somewhere about fif-
teen million feet of lumber, four dwell
ling houses and the company's barns,
had gone up in smoke.
The fire started in the extreme
northwest corner of the yard and, al
though the firemen responded prompt
ly to the alarm, owing to the distance
of the fire from the nearest hydrant, it
was little time before they succeeded
in getting a stream upon it. Then,
owing to the pressure, several lengths
of hose burst and had to be replaced,
which allowed the fire to get a good
start.
The lumber was perfectly dry and
the fire spread rapidly. A strong
wind was blowing at the time and
great chunks of burning wood and Gin
ders were carried over the heads of the
firemen to quickly ignite beyond them
and soon the whole yard was one blaz-
ing mass of flames which were blowing
directly towards the town and it began
to look as though the whole place was
doomed and the merchants and citizens
generally began to pack up their be-
longings and get ready to move out.
But just at the time when the fire
looked the darkest and became the
most menacing aud things began to
look the worst, the wind changed to
the north carrying the fire away from
the principal part of the town.
Meanwhile the firemen and those as
sisting them were working like heroes
and stuck to their places as long as hui
man flesh and blood could stand it, dis
putting every inch of the way and only
yielding step by step as they were lit
orally forced back by the smoke and
flames. Several were overcome by the
intense heat and had to be carried out
and it was some time before they re-
covered. They concentrated their eff
forts at the saw mill and at the planning
mill as it was felt that here were the
two vital points and that if either of
these two burned that it would be next
to impossible to save the town. Here
they hung on like bulldogs and al
though both buildings were on fire
scores of times, they succeeded in
checking the fire here and both were
saved. When the wind changed it
swept the fire across the street leading
towards Mud creek and four dwelling
houses there were burned.
When the danger was the greatest,
Amigo and Rhinelander were both tel
egraphed to for aid and both cities re-
sponded and sent fire companies here
as soon as possible but the fire had
been checked and got under control
before they arrived but they run out
their carts and got several streams on

Dear Sir
I notice in your paper nearly every
week about A. Mckenzie coming in
with his usual catch of fish. What is
his usual catch? A few perch and
rock bass? If it was Mart Hirzel l
could Judge as have been out with
him and could safely place the catch at
40 to 10 pounds per day. But Mac am
in doubt. I heard deer story that he
told two years ago this fall and then
the other party told the story and
there was quite difference in the
two. Of course Mac is o. e in re-
CARDS to Judge Buffers weight, but
strong on fish and fresh meat.

a sensation by making bitter attack on
Reed. Miss 1sadore Rush and Mrs Meyers,
the plaintiffs. He commented sarcasti-

Reed and Miss Rush and characterized the
suit as :" a fraud that reeked to high
heaven" He denounced DR.. Willis West
moreland. the prominent Atlanta surgeon
who testified for the plaintiffs. and inti-
mated that his inability to testify truth
fully was due to his being hypnotized, con-
jured or infatuated by one OF the litigants
and that sooner or later Roland Reed

Good Roads and Broad Tires

There can be no doubt about it. Good
roads are continual blessing. or as long
as they last. The more we have of them
the better for the state, for the etates
people, and for the states horses. But,
while We are about it, why not insist
upon broad tires for heavy vehicles?
Several attempts have been made to se-
cure the passage of law to this effect,
but it has always failed, in great meas
ure because of the opposition from the
agricultural communities. Let the good
work Of good roads go on. but let the
commonwealth adopt Herewith the
