ngs.

Hardwick, Oct. 12. Fire destroyed two
business blocks with their two stores and
damaged other property in the center Of
Hardwick's business district last night,
The loss Is set at $4,000, while the insur-
ance on the whole win not exceed $4,000.
The principal losers are l. C. Titus, who
owned both blocks and one Of the stores
and the Hardwlek Hardware Co. The
former did not carry cent Of insurance,
while the latter had S4 600 Insurance on a
stock Of goods estimated at $4,000. Mr.,
Titus carried a stock Of general merchan-
disc amounting to about $4,000 worth.
His loss win be total.
The fire was discovered shortly before
one o'clock this morning In the second
story OF the Hardwick Hardware Co.
block. and the flames had gained consid-
cradle headway. An alarm was promptly
rung In and the Ere lighters were soon on
the scene. The building was Of wood and
the flames spread with great rapldity. In
a short time the flames communicating
with the building In which Titus store
was located. This was also wooden
building, and It was apparent that it could
not be saved.
Both the structures burned hereely and
the energies Of the fire fighters were turn
ed to saving surrounding property. The
locality is a particularly dangerous one,
having had tho reputation of being a
fire trap Several times the Gallagher
block, containing a tailor shop and a tene-
tnent was on Gre but this was saved after
hard work The Blekford block across
the street, containing the store Of w +.
Clement, was saved although some dam
age was done.
The FIRE was under control by ? O'Clock
but the ruins are still smouldering at noon
today The block in which was the hard
ware store, was burned TO the ground
while the other which contained Titus
store is still standing, although the inte.
rlor Is completely burRed out.
The cause Of the fire is unknown. The
manager of the Hardwiek Hardware Co
was in his store at 10 80 o'clock last even
ing and at that time, he says he looked
into the stove. There were a few Goals II
the stove. Those In the neighb0rhooe
smelled fire as Il Of burning rags, during
the.eYening, but this fire wrs not traced
1t may have been the starting Of the fir
which destroyed the two blocks.
Both the buildings were Of wood twi
stories and half IN height, and wer
built good many years ago. II was con
sldered fortunate that the fire did not com
about two weeks ago as at that time tn
