HARVEY MAN BUYS
BENSON DRUG STORES.

julius Sgutts Of Harvey has bought
the chain of Benson drug stores in the
state from Alex. Stern of Fargo, the
trustee. His bid was about $4,000.
The separate bids for some of the
individual stores was $500 for the
Fargo store on Front street by r. H.
Tenney of Minneapolis, formerly Of
Fargo; S6,515 for the Minot drug
store by Paul Mccoy Of that place;
$5,40O for the Darlington drug store;
$3.50 for the vacant lot at Caring
ton; and $6,750 for the Harvey drug
store.
Mr.. Sgutt is not druggist and it is
presumed he made the purchase pure
ly as speculation. In such case it is
probable Mr.. Benson will continue the
management of the stores just as he
has been doing under the receivership
of Mr.. Stern.

GREAT NORTHERN
ICE HOUSE BURNED
SPARK FROM ENGINE SET FIRE
TO THE ROOF-DAMAGE ESTI-
MATED AT $1,000 FIRE LAD
DIES HAD NO CHANCE.

The Great Northern ice house, sit
uated in the yards east of the Minot
Flour Mill, was destroyed by fire
which originated at 8 o'clock Satur-
day morning.
The loss to the building and ice was
about $4,000, fully insured.
The flames were first seen emitting
from the roof of the building and SO
quickly did they spread that the roof
was mass Of flames and falling in
by the time the fremen arrived. 1t
is presumed that spark from an en-
CINE started the fire. This is not the
first time that the ice house has
caught fire. The G. N. will probably
place a metal roof on the next ice
house it constructs.
Many houses in that vicinity had a
close call, but the fire ladies worked
faithfully and saved them.
