LINEWLLE VISITED BY FIRE.
Almost Entire East Side of Square Is
Wiped Out by Flames,

Seymour, April 10.-Lineville, the
second station west Of here on the
Rock Island railway, was visited Fri
day night by one of the most destruc-
tive fires in the history of the town,
almost the entire east side of the
square being wiped out. Eight of the
business buildings, besides some of
the smaller buildings, were consumed
before the flames could be stopped
Men worked like mad to save the town,
but being handicapped by lack of wa
ter, there being no fire protection to
speak of, their efforts were almost
fruitless. Most Of the buildings were
insured and the larger portion of the
stocks were protected by insurance,
yet it was severe blow to the town.
The origin of the fire is not definitely
known, but it is presumed to have
started in restaurant at the north
east corner. The total damage has
not been ascertained, but a conserva.
tive estimate places it at $4,000.
