St Anthony, Jan. 8. Fire which
originated in the pool room here Al .
O'clock this morning completely de-
stroyed the pool room. hotel and har-s
ness shop. A vacant lot between the
drug store and harness shop saved the
former and probably the rest of the
town. BY hard work on the part of the
citizens the flames were confined TO the
three buildings. Part of the stock was
got out of the harness shop and most
of the hotel furniture was saved Ev-
erything in the pool room was con-
stunned. The st. Paul and Kansas City
grain elevator and the Iowa Central
depot were in danger for a tins, but
water was used freely and they were
saved. That the wind vas in the south
is probably due the fact that the town
is not today y a heap of ashes, for shad the
wind been blowing from the east it
would have been impossible to have
stayed the flames If the drug store
had caught fire the remainder of the
Main street buildings would have been
consumed. Great credit Is due the men
for their heroic work in saving the drug
store from the flames. 1t was neces-
sary to fight the fire atsverys close guar
tiers and the heat was almost unbear-
able.
The owners of the burned buildings
and their estimated losses are as fol-
