OFFICIAL PAPER OF COUNTY
A Damaging Fire.

About Z O'Clock Sunday evening.
smoke was found to be issuing from
the VIM. Kellow store building. The
fire department responded promptly
TO the alarm, and found the building
so dense with smoke that the fire was
ALMOST impossible to locate, but it
developed that the fire by that time
already was in both stories, it having
evidently originated upstairs in a
room used by some boys as sort of a
club room, and burned hole through
the floor into the store room.
The fire boys put up good fight
and soon had it under control, al
though handicapped to some extent
by the breaking of their new hose at
two different times, once on each
line.
The entire stock is badly damaged
by fire, smoke and water, and the
building is badly damaged, the fire
having extended in one place on the
north wall from the store floor to the
roof. The law office of N. A. Black
burn was somewhat disarranged and
Uttered up with broken glass, but we
are told but little actual damage was
caused him. The room upstairs in
the rear of the one in which the fire
originated, was filled full of seats and
desks, from the old school house, but
they sustained but slight damage.
Mr.. Kellow held policies in various
companies represented in Cresco b!
w. 81. Tillson, A. e. Barker, @. w
Reed and Jacob Welsh. He carried ;
total insurance of S. 900 on building
and heating apparatus, $500 on fixture
and $1,000 on stock, which will saw
him from serious loss.
