10 have the war time prohibition act

know Of his mis- ortune until he
stepped of the train at Jasper
that morning.
]. w M rrison was one of the
first to get to the fire He WIS
awakened by gunshot, and 60
ing o the window saw the fire.
He gave further alarm, and i'm
mediately went to the rescue.
The building had caught in the
roof and the entire upper portion
was in flames, which were eating
thru ceiling into tire rooms below
1t is supposed the fire resulted
from defective insulation on elec-
trio light wirns. Very little fur
niture was saved.
The loss is about $500. Mr..
Darr carried insurance to the a.
mount of $1,000, part on furniture
and part on house. About $50
pounds of lard were destroyed.
Everybody regrets the misfor.
tune which has befallen Mr.. and

full one.
