DISASTROUS FIRE At pAlIsADE
Homes and Business Houses Are
Burned With Loss OF About
$40, 000-Little Insurance

Palisade was visited by a disastrous
fire Wednesday that caused the loss
of a number of homes and business
houses. The fire broke out at $50
a. m. in the kitchen of the Palisade
Hotel, and when discovered vas
blazing between the ceiling and roof,
over the kitchen range. Eureka
County's chemical fire fighting cart
was soon on the scene and in action,
but the blaze had obtained such a
start and was so inaccessible that the
full chemical charge was thrown in
to the blazing fire with little or no
results.
Palisade has no hydrant service,
and as the Humboldt river is some
distance away, powder seemed the
only means of stopping the fire from
spreading. Enough of this to blow
up the school house was hastily
searched for, but none could be
found, and then most of the people
turned to and worked to save every
thing possible.
Carlin, IL miles away, was wired
for assistance and promptly respond
ed, sending a yard engine down
equipped for fire fighting. When it
arrived the fire had about burned it
self out and there was little for its
crew to do except smother the re-
naming embers.
A telephone message from Pali-
SADIE estimates the loss at about $40,-
600, with some insurance. Follow
is a list of the properties burned:
Charles Walker, one store and two
dwellings,.
Raine Estate. one store.
