1t would be impossible to name
all who did noble work in fighting
the fire, but it was quite noticeable
that among those who took the
greatest risks and worked the hard
est, were many who had nothing
whatever at stake.
Some people were SO considerate
for the safety of the goods they
were carrying out that they have
forgotten to return them. This was
particularly true of about 5000
worth of cigars that was taken from
Waggoner's factory.

We got 1t at last-a destructive
tire-just what everybody IN Mont
peller has long expected we would
get, but what every body has fervent-
ly hoped the hand of fate would
really withhold from our town. And
the only reason that almost the en-
tire lower business portion of town
isn't in ashes today is, that fate,
when il did see fit to touch the fire
brand to one of our tinder boxes,
was kind enough to do SO at time
when not particle Of wind was
blowing. Had there been even a
slight breeze blowing from either
the south or west we would have a
much sadder story to relate, and
quite likely our presses would also
have been in the ruins.
It was at twenty five minutes
after one, Tuesday morning, that
fire was discovered in the bowling
alley portion of Oakley's hall. The
alarm was quickly sounded and sew
eral who were in the restaurant and
nearby saloons rushed to the build
ing with buckets of water in the
hope OF being able to subdue the
fire, but as soon as the door was
forced open, which gave draft to
the flames, they apparently spread in
a second to the entire lower portion
of the building. Those present then
realized that the Oakley hall was
doomed and adjoining buildings as
we'll.
Within a few minutes after the
alarm was sounded almost the entire
population of the town was at the

willing hands set to work, as best
they could without any fire fighting
apparatus, to check the flames and
remove goods from buildings that
were known could not be saved.
Jonley & Trill's restaurant, across
the narrow street on the west, was
ablaze before scarcely an article was
removed from it, and the heat was
SO intense that it kept the heroic
workers at considerable distance
from the burning buildings. How
ever, the men succeeded in removing

Davis.
An illustration of what effective
work even small stream of water
will do toward quenching fire, was
shown by the stream that was
thrown from hose attached TO the
railroad company's hydrant at the
pump house. The hose was only
long enough to permit the stream to
just reach the west side Of the build
ing occupied by Mr.. Ellis, but it
was sufficient to do telling work.
By continually shifting the stream
from the Ellis building to the build.
ings adjoining it on the west, occu-
pied by Waggoner's cigar factory
aud w. M. Hoskin's saloon, the
flames were prevented from continu-
ing their progress of destruction.
1t was about 4 o'clock when the
fire was gotten under control and it
was known that no more property
would be destroyed, but in the two
hours and half, buildings and
merchandise to the value of $25, 900
had been reduced to smoke and
ashes.
The origin Of the fire is unknown.
Everything about the building was
apparently all right when Frank
Oakley left the dance hall about ID
minutes before the fire was discov-
cred. After dances were over he
generally went down the back stairs
and out through the bowling alley,
but on this occasion he only went
down the stairs a short distance,
and seeing that everything in the
bowling alley was in usual condl-
tion, be went back, closed the trap
door and went down the outside
stairway. At that time there was
no smell of smoke or burning wood
in the lower room where the fire
started.
"A conservative estimate of the
losses places them as follows:
William Hughes, general mer-
chandlse, So, 500; insured for $3.50.
Stagner d Co.. cigars, stationery,
ETC., 81, $50; insured for $1,000.

store, Wnlcn adJolned the Oakley
hall on the east, before the heat
forced them away.
From the restaurant the flames
RAPIDLY continued to ignite the
buildings to the west, namely, Riley
Barkdall's barber shop, Wedel u
Hughart's and C. N. Ellis saloons.
Mr.. Barkdall got everything out of
mis- shop, and from the saloons all
of the fixtures and much of the stock
was removed. While men were
working like Trojans in that section,
removing goods and doing what
they could to check the progress of
the flames, scores of others were
doing equally as good work on the
south and east.
For time it looked rs though
the flames would leap across the
vacant lot between Hughes and
Nose Lewis stores and ignite the
latter, but bucket brigade saved
Mr.. Lewis building. They were
materially aided by the absence of
any breeze from the west and the
distance from the Hughes building.
Had! the Lewis building caught
we'll, we will not attempt to predict
where the fire would have ended.
During the time it looked as though
the Lewis Store was doomed. men
were hurriedly removing his goods
to fire proof cellar, at the rear OF
the building, and not until nearly
his entire stock was removed. was il
absolutely certain that his building
was safe.
The hardest and most heroic work
that was done was the saving of
