the pile of ice owned by Voss and
Peterson. the tons of ice standing out
cold and seeming not melted at all
by the intense heat was one of the
curious features of the scene the next
day after the fire.
Paul Voss had recently been offered
$4,000 for his buildings and four
lots. He had So. 500 insurance. The
Krohnke barber shop was worth 5000
and insured for $500. The Petersen
property was worth over $1,000 and
he had ST 200 insurance. The two
story dance hall and harness shop of
Kuhlman was said to be worth Sc, 900
and had $1,000 insurance.

the reporter will give one an idea of
the feeling of the women and child

woman was looking at the ruins when
sasgirl of fifteen came up, they shook
hands and then both began to cry vio-

Petersen was found with his face all
covered with cloth to protect his
burns. Many people came over from

DR.. Fuester will this week move
his headquarters to Schleswig. He is
the old time physician of the German
settlement of Crawford and Ida
counties. and has been at the bed
side of hundreds of the sick and dying.
There seems no clew to the origin
of the fire. Mr.. Petersen says he came
in about nine. put out the lamp and
went to bed and he dose not know
how his building caught fire. He is
one of the worst sufferers by the fire.
He disposed of good farm for the
Ricketts, property and has only $500
insurance on an $4,000 property. Be-
sides he is badly burned on his face.
Paul Voss will Immediately put up
a temporary building and start his
hotel and saloon. He expects to make
the new permanent building of brick

The two merchandise stores are
still there and the blacksmith shop.

there is need of a hotel and places
