wADSwORTH AGAIN VISITED
BY DESTRUCTIVE FIRE

Fire which started just before 12
O'Clock Sunday night destroyed nearly
all that remained of the old railroad
town of Wadsworth which had fire a
few years ago and was nearly entirely
destroyed. The blaze destroyed the
large three story Nevada hotel and the
other buildings on the main street of
the town. There was very poor facili-
ties for fighting the fire and the burn
ing Nevada hotel set the large brick
store belonging to f. Griswold on
fire. The citizens of the town worked
desperately to save this building with
its contents and managed to do so, al.
though both building and stock were
badly damaged. The loss will probably
amount to more than 100000.
