BIG FIRE DESTROYS 5 BARNS

Had any wind been blowing this
afternoon, the buildings in the Nine
teen hundred block on the east side
Of Main avenue and the Nineteen
hundred and Two thousand block on
the west side of East Second avenue
would undoubtedly have been reduced
to ashes, when blaze which broke
out in the loft Of the barn located on
the rear Of the property owned by
the NJ. X. Shields estate, quickly
spread to adjoining structures. The
call for the fire department was Civ
en- about | o'clock. In a few minutes
the flames were shooting a hundred
feet in the air, and sparks ignited
the barn and outbuildings at the back
of the small house owned by +. G.
Perkins, and the outbuildings at the
rear Of the George Kerr place. Short
~ the flames had spread to the barn
back of the Schultz place occupied
by Tom Mccormick and the building
at the rear of the next place, also
owned by Henry Schultz, but unoc-
cupied. All these buildings were
practically a total loss, and as far as
known not one was insured. While
the fire was in progress the roof
of the Schultz property that is not
occupied, caught fire and was quite
badly damaged, and the up ntairs por-
ton quite badly damaged by water.
Every resident of the vicinity assist
ed the fire department in controlling
the flames by using their garden hose
to pour water on the buildings close
by, that were heated to the smoking
point by the terrible blaze. For full
ly half hour nearly every resident
of the vicinity expected TO see their
home reduced to ashes before the fire
could be extinguished.
