with the stock of Aune Il Thune,
the medical furniture, etc., above,
was a foregone conclusion, and the
question arose as to whether the
entire block between Second and
Mill street, would not 90 down be-
fore the flames, but the gallant
work of the firemen, almost unDar-

ing flames, so far as local depart
ments are concerned, anyway. was
commencing to make itself
felt. One hose was advanced to the
roof of Hubbard & Co. s store, and
from there the attack on the spread
ing of the flames to the west was
made. The excellent walls of the
Houghmaster block helped materi-
ally, the flames being only able to
get through the windows, through
which the water was turned at in
tervals, while at other times the

clatter of the broken plate glass,
mixed with the noise of the seeth
ing flames, was something awful to
listen to, while the flames reached
out towards the Otto Schmahl build
ing, Melges' barber shop, the opera
house, at once placed those build
ings in imminent danger, and it
was admitted that if the flames made
a good start on them the entire bust
ness portion of the city would 60 up
in smoke.
A yell from the top of the Hough-
master block attracted the attention
of the people who had gathered.
Two men were there calling for help.
Bert. Pranke and Louis A. Guth,
who were occupying rooms on the
third floor of Hotel Francois, were
cut off from getting out of the hotel
by the three routes usually opened
for the purpose. and made their way
to the roof of the Houghmaster
building through a window from the
hotel. "For Gods sake, hurry up,

water was sent across the street.
At 3:45 o'clock there was sud-
den crash of plate glass. The front
of Aune & Thune's store had gone
down. At the same instant a vol
ume of flame shot out of the open
space as if a seething volcano. They
reached across the street, and again
set fire to the buildings occupied by
Messrs. Melges and Knowlton Bros.
The plate glass in the latter build
ing, Pease's hardware store Schleu-
der's jewelry store, Melges barber
shop, Mrs. Mortimer's millinery
store and F. L. Peterson saloon
now gave away before the water
and fire and the sidewalk was liter
ally covered with broken glass.
The frontof the Francois building
now came down with crash, in
creasing the volume of burning cind-
ers, sparks and the like, that we're
carried for blocks on Washington
avenue, over the court house, and
over the residences in that portion
of the city. Every resident was
out. Women and children were up,
protecting their abodes, and put
ting out the sparks as they landed
on roofs, or on dangerous places on
the lawn, and to the men watching
the roofs of their business houses,
and to the, women and children can
credit be given for the holding
down of the spread.

So, 600 worth of appliances and drugs

that sounded like the explosion of a

by the fire causing the disturbance.
At four O'Clock the roof of the
building had fallen in and the fire
men were absolutely certain that
unless the fire broke out in another
portion of the city they would be
able to prevent a spread in the bus

boys" they were calling, as the
flames commenced to lick their way.
From the top of the building oc-
cupied by Frank Hubbard & Co., a
rope was sent to them and the two
men were rescued.
The first plate glass in the build
ings on the opposite side of the
street to 90 down before the licking
of the flames, was the large one in
the barber shop of J. H. Melges. 1t
fell with crash. Then the flames
had reached the sash on the second
floor of the Otto Schmahl building,
and at once a stream of water was
turned from the hotel building to
fronts of these structures, and at
various intervals this became nee
essary in order to put out the fire
and to prevent the spread of the
flames.
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1903-10-28
From Thursdays Extra.

Fire completely wiped out the
brick buildings belonging to Mrs.
Lizzie HI. Francois and Geo. Hough
master on Second street, shortly
after three o'clock Thursday morn
ing, causing loss of over 500, 900.
The former building included the
property known as Hotel Francois,
and contained the immense mer-
chandise stock of Francois &
Schmahl, valued at over $50, 900,
while the latter was occupied by
Aune & Thune, with their immense
fall and winter stock of clothing,
valued at all of $25, 900, and on the
second floor were the Offices of DR..
Fl. E. Schlegel, DIR. VIM. Corpron,
DIR. H. J. Henzie and the business
Office of Mr.. Houghmaster, while
the other rooms were occupied by
Dwight Bissell and others for
sleeping purposes.
No lives were lost, although at
one time it was reported that one
of the domestics of the hotel had
been unable to make her escape, and
had persisted in the flames. The
report. was false, however, the do
mestic putting in an appearance
after having been given clothes
enough to warrant her appearing on
the streets.
The fire appears to have been dis
covered by Mr.. Fitch of Echo, who oc-
cupied room number II. Mr.. Fitch
was awakened by the smoke in his
room, and thought at first that some
one or two persons in an adjoining
room were smoking. He arose and
discovered that the hotel was on
fire. He gave the alarm and com
menced routing out guests.
In the meantime, or at about BIO
o'clock Patrolman Henry G. Baker
sent in the alarm for the depart
ment, and the response was rapid
for that time of the night. Joseph
Fountain, proprietor of the hotel,
and his son, Percy Bradley, were
already up, and arousing the guests,
as we'll as the help. They stuck to
their posts with remarkable nerve,
assuring themselves, even in the
face of grave danger to their own
lives, that every occupant OF the
house, had left the rooms, and then
they themselves made their escape.
When the fire was first discover
ed it had enveloped the rear portion
of the hotel. The rear porch was
simply a mass of flames, extending
from the base of the three story
building to the top. The flames.
famed at first by strong north
west wind, made the progress OF
quicksilver, and before the first
stream was turned on the building
the flames had made such progress
that total loss of that building was
insured, while the Houghmastel
building was likewise given up. Il
ten minutes more, or at $3.50 o'clocl
the flames had burst out of the from
of Francois & Schmahl's store, ant
out of the Office of the hotel. TIL
