FIRE DESTROYED Rider BLDG.
FIRE OCCURRED EARLY YESTER-
DAY NG-ADJONING
BUILDINGS DAMAGED

Fire which is thought to have start
ed from the furnace in the basement OF
the H. A. Rider building on First street
southeast, entirely destroyed that
building, containing billiard hall,
bowling alleys and barber shop, and
caused considerable damage to the
building adjoining On the north side,
occupied by the St. Paul Dry Goods
store. The entire loss is estimated
at over $4,000.
The alarm was turned in at about
$3.50 a. m. and although the fire depart
ment responded very quickly it was inn
possible to check the flames and The
building burned to the ground. Thanks
to the excellent work Of the fire fight
ers the building occupied by the st.
Paul store, which for a time seemed
doomed, was saved and the greatest
damage there was to the stock, by
smoke. The building on the south side
owned by Ed Ludwig and occupied
by the Milo theatre, was damaged by
water and carriage shed belonging to
D. X. Harting, located across the alley
from the Rider building, was damaged.
Two hearses, kept in the shed were
undamaged.
All losses by the fire were covered by
insurance except the Harting carriage
shed. The damage to this building
amounted to only about $25. The Rid
>er building was insured for $4,000 and
the billiard hall and bowling alley
equipment owned by Reuben Anderson
of Minneapolis, for $4,000. The dam.
age to the Tanner building in which
the south wall was practically ruined,
amounted to about $4,000.
The St. Paul store dry goods stock
is badly damaged by smoke, but the
owner has no idea of the loss, as each
department must be looked through
The walls and scenery in the Milo the.
atre were damaged, entailing loss of
about $500 to the owner of the build
| ing and about 5000 to the theatre own.
er.
The fremen are to be congratulated
for the good work done in saving the
adjoining buildings. Although the
flames had worked their way into the
basement of the Tanner building and
were eating their way through the
floor to the dry goods store, they were
extinguished without causing any dam
age whatsoever with water. Taking
into consideration the time Of the fire,
$3.50 a. M, with the thermometer reg
istering several degrees below zero, the
boys did wonderfully we'll.

IN JUSTICE COURT

A. Kaplan of Randall brought an ac-
tion against john Moff of that village
the first Of the week for the recovery
Of $25 which he had paid Mr. Mohl to
bind the bargain in cattle deal, which
he later cancelled. The ease was tried
in Justice Gerritz's court and the JUS
tice took the ease under advisement.
Yesterday he dismissed the case and
ordered the plaintiff to pay the costs,
amounting to 1855.
Mr.. Kaplan had purchased several
cattle from Mr.. Mohl and paid him $25
to bind the bargain, tn: cattle to re
delivered on certain date. About
week after the deal was made Kaplan
told Mohl that he could not take the
cattle and asked that his money be re-
funded. Mohl told him that if he
could sell the stock for the same price
as he had bargained for with Kaplan
he would return the money but that if
they brought him less he would not.
He was unable to keep the stock on
account Of lack Of hay and was later
forced to sell them at lower price.
A warrant was served on Edward
White yesterday, D. K. Harting being
the complaining witness, for obstruct-
ipo the sidewalk in front of the Am
erican house barn, while unloading a
load of hay. The farmer delivered the
hay after 6 O'Clock. Mr.. White, who
has charge Of the barn, pleaded not
guilty, the time for the trial not as
yet being set. 4
