J.. J. RIEGERss RESIDENCE DE
6TRoYED BY FIRE.

About noon on slast Saturday j. j.
Riegers residence in Coffins Grove
township caught fire in the roof or
upper portion of the building and
spread so rapidly that all attempts TO
control the flames were unavaihng
Mr.. Rieger was in MasonWille at the
time, but his neighbors turned out
promptly and worked we'll in helping
to get out some OF the furniture and
household goods. The loss is esti-
mated at about $4,000 and about halt
covered by insurance. Had not the
wind been favorable the fire would
have destroyed the barns as well as
the house.
Lawrence Rieger, Mr. Riegers
oldest son, is also loser. He had
$3.50 in currency and about Sc in sill
yer in his room in the upper part Of
the house. He was out in the field
when the fire started and before he
could get to the house everything in
his room was on fire and his money
as we'll as everything else in the
room was entirely destroyed. And he,
+ course, had no insurance. @
