GEM LAUNDRY BURNS.
County Commissioner Simlns Sus-
tains severe Loss.

Ill luck has seemingly followed the
Gem Steam laundry. Once wrecked
by flood. with three robberies follow
ing each other in quick succession
and today a fire which swept every
thing before it. Frank 3. Simms the
proprietor of the laundry, feels that he
has had more than his proportion of
misfortune.
The first North Topeka flood COM
pletely covered the laundry which

5000 fire burned. out the building
and contents in less than half an hour
with $4,000 of insurance.
IT am fixed up here to do business
for few days until 1 can decide what
to do. have an office over here and
the rest of the boys have very kindly
allowed me to use their plants" said
Frank Simms. formerly councilman
from the First ward and now county
commissioner. II had a deal on for
the purchase of the property where
I was located and either expected to
buy there and build or build some
where else"
The fire this morning originated at
9:12 in the boiler room at the rear of
the laundry 524-42s North Kansas
avenue. The cause of the fire is un-
known. 1t spread rapidly from the
rear of the boiler room towards the
front of the bouilding burned out
Tue EOOI over the DOller room ana
scorching the entire interior Three
lines of hose were played on the build
ing with an idea of saving the ma
chinery. The effort was to keep tho
machinery as cool as possible and it
is not known whether it will repre-
sent an entire loss or not. The most
valuable portion of the contents was
of course the machinery
Several bundles Of clothes were
burned also, but fortunately being
on Monday there were not many bun
dies in the laundry. Eight girls who
were at work lost their street dresses
which they had exchanged for work
dresses.

employees
The building which is partially

and the loss on this will not be heavy.

tate and carried no insurance With
a tar roof and woodwork that was as
dry as finder from the constant heat
on the interior it was entirely impos-
sible to more than save the shell of the
building. George Hicks. engineer,
who was absent from the boiler room
when the fire started, claims that the
fire originated in one of the dry rooms
