Proprietor BIameS Firemen for
CareIeSSIy Leaving Sparks.
Charge InCendiarism.

The Terpinal Clothing Company
store, West Mitchell street. is wrecked
today as the result of three fires which
broke out last night and early today
at two-hour intervals.
The fires were in three separate parts
of the building and to the eye show
no connection. The first fire occurred
in the basement and was discovered at
8 o'clock The fire department extin-
guished the blaze and returned to head
quarters. Two hours and one minute
later they were again called to the same
store and found a cabinet of mems suits
blazing. This was on the main floor OF
the store. Again at 1906 o'clock this
morning they were called to put out a
blaze which had broken out on a shelf
on the opposite side of the store.
E. Saperstein, proprietor Of the store,
made a statement TO a representative
Of The Georgian, in which he accused
the fire department of carelessness in
not extinguishing all sparks before they
left the first time.
The fremen say they put out the fire
each time and point out that it must
have been incendiary.
Saperstein's loss has not been esti-
mated. He says he has $1,000 worth of
stock and says that it is fully covered
by insurance.
He has suffered fire losses before. and
in the rear of the store are a number
of old suits which were damaged in a
previous blaze.

LoST-s-RooM HOUSE.
Minneapolis, Aug. t5.-Twin
City detectives are keeping their
eyes open for anyone wandering
around with an 8-room house I'm
der his arm.
The house was stolen from a
lot owned by Frank N. Edmonds,
a real estate operator, and just at
present the police department is
utterly lacking in clues.
Edmonds found out about the
theft when he received a notice
from the Board of Health to get
the lot on which the house once
stood cleaned up.
Edmonds replied heatedly to
the Board of Health that the
house occupied almost all of the
lot, which consequently would
not need cleaning up.
The Board of Health replied
heatedly to Edmonds that he was
nutty and that he ought to have a
doctor examine his head.
Edmonds went out to 4th ave-
nue. and North street, where once
his 8-room house had been. 1t
was gone, lock, stock and barrel.
There wasn't even a cellar left.
The police have notified all the
pawnbrokers to let them know if
anyone tries to hook an 8-room
house. Edmonds is trying to
think of some way to nail the lot
down.

Sancier was brought to Chi

strikebreaking bonus of $1.50 a

Sancier did not leave town. He
