tor at Omemee, threatened for time
to destroy the entire town. The citt-

it started. They devoted their efforts
to saving the St. Anthony & Dakota
elevator, which was located near the
one in which the fire started.
Huge cinders and burning embers
were carried about the town. setting
fire to buildings In the business dis
trict, and Feaniring constant vigilance
on the part Of the fire fighters to pre-
vent the flames from spreading. Sew
eral times the st. Anthony & Dakota
elevator took fire, but the volunteer
firemen always managed to subduc
the t.ai.ies before they reached
dangerous proportions. The fight was
continued until & q. H.. by which time
the elevator was entirely desrayed
and danger of further spread Of the.
flames was passed.
The burnel elevator was owned by
the Hcising company and contained
$4,000 bushels Of wheat. The loss is
estimated at $4,000. fully covered by
insurance. TIE origin of the fire is
unknown.
