city's largest brick buildings collapsed

shoppers, estimated TO number 30 to

suffocating and burning living victims
as they cried for help. Twenty dead
and injured have been removed from
the wreckage.
Until the ruins are completely
cleared from the fatal spot, the exact
loss OF life cannot be ascertained, but
II cannot fail to be over thirty-fve.
The collapsed structures were the
three-story Odd Fellows building, oc.
cupied by the department store of

two-story implement store of T. ].

northeast corner of the public square,

that Jared the town to it's founda-

A sale OF white goods was on in
the great three-story department store
and men. women and children throng-
ed it's counters.
At the cracking of timbers clerks
and customers alike broke for the
streets. Pressed outward by the
weight of the heavy implements of
the stock, the wall Of the implement
store swayed. sagged and burst
through into the department store. and
In an instant hundreds of tons of mer-
chandise and wrecked and shattered
building material reared into a tre-
menous heap of debris into the chart
of the department store. piling thirty.

stuck from the mass.
After d moment of stunned inacti-
witty, hundreds of rescuers pitched into
the ruins Scarcely had they mounted
the heap when tongues Of fame burst
through II. From all over the city
came workers, fre-fghters in hun
dreds. From the steaming ruin bricks
were hurled aside, timbers torn out
and cast into the streets, and crushed
human forms lifted from the twisted
wreckage and hurried to hospitals.
The fire was extinguished in an hour.
Rescue work was impeded by lack

joined the rescuers. Some of the
farmers were anxious about near rela-
tives who had come to tonw for the
day.
The monetary loss was estimated at
about $4,000. including damage to the
Odd Fellows hall. whose lodge rooms
we're on the third floor. So far as as
certsined the lodge rooms were empty

MAY l ASK
 By CHARLES ScANl0N

If more liquor is sold where there are no saloons than awhere there are would brewers. distill- CTS and wholesale dealers, who about seventy-fve per cent of all saloons, pay license, rent, taxes, insurance, attorneys fees, and contribute large sums of money to influence the press, topubhSh and distribute literature, and in other ways to obtain license, all to lessen the amount of their sales?
 Would the liquor men now be maintaining five national oreani- zations, at heavy expense, to op- pose all prohibitory measures, it such measures did not interfere with the traffic? Would they keep an expensive lobby at the national capital to urge the res toration of the canteen or army saloon if they were not financial ly interested?
 Are beer wagons and speak easies' and blind pigs" n d liquor agents alone, worse than all these evils plus the open sal oon? Do not the records of hun dreds of towns show that saloons do not lessen these nuisances. but afford additional temptation to drink, and are the spawning place of the most degrading vic es?
 How do the saloons help a town? Do they make better fathers, husbands, sons or brothers? Do they make mothers, wives and i children comfortable and happy?I Do they help to build up churches and make it easy for parents to keep children in school?
