Very few ever knew of the
first fire.
Just as the picture show was
over, about ten or a few minutes
of ten a light was noticed from
the Theatre and which later
proved to be the Roy Trading Co
store on fire. Some one had set
"a pile ofrubbish on fire at the
Southwest corner Of the building
and by the time the crowd from
the theatre reached the building
the roof was ablaze whipped by
a light breeze from the south
west. A number of fire ex-
tinguishers were rushed to the
scene and a bucket brigade
formed and after a hard effort
the blaze was extinguished after
considerable damage had been
done. Mr.. Hanson and two of
the clerks stayed at the store as
guards and the crowd dispersed.
Every few minutes they made
a complete survey of the store
both inside and outside, and
while on the rounds, Mr.. Hanson
noticed a blaze in the south end
of town which ne Immediately
located in their large warehouse.
which was stored full of hay and
broom corn and feed. He i'm
mediately gave an alarm and
within a few minutes a large
crowd was present fighting to
save the Floersheim sheds and
residences which, were just
across the spur track from the
burning buildings. Milton
Floersheim and H. Krabben-
schmidt noticed the fire about
the same time that Mr.. Hanson
gave the alarm which was then

fifteen minutes of twelve. The
Fl0ersheim sheds were a fire a
number of times but by the use
of fire extinguishers, salt and
flour as well as the bucket bri-
gade, the fire was held from
spreading to the adjoining build
ing. A pipe line. was laid from
the Floersheim store to the scene
of the fire and a number Of tanks
OF water were hauled by Mr..
Leatherman during the night
and the fire was kept down SO
that sparks would not set ad-
Joining buildings on fire.
Wednesday morning ALI strang-
ers in town were rounded up and
made to give a. completing of
themselves during the previous
night. One fellow who was act
ing a little suspicious was placed
under arrest but was a able to
prove an alibi and it was decided
he was just little off in the
upper story. He was released
and ordered to get out Of town
at once.
Everything began to quite
down, when all of a sudden
about Z P. M. the cry of fire was
again heard and the kindling and
coal sheds to the back Of the
Lucero building which is used as
a Public School building was in
a mass Of flames. Again the
bucket brigade and fire ex-
tingguishers did their work ef-
fectually.
Immediately after the fire was
extinguished the matter of poIic-
ing the town was uined over to

worked so heroically Tuesday
night to help us save our store

who helped to keep the fire from
spreading later in the evening
when our hay sheds were burned
to the ground. It was only thru
your heroic deeds that our store
and all our buildings were saved
from being burned.

 Holy Cross college stands for all that Is good, moral American and love of country Her history for the past sev- enty-f~e yeNrs is without comparison. Starting in humble way, she h:e gA d. Hally reached a point where her facili- ties for taking care of the youth of New England are taxed way beyond the limit. She must have new dormitories chapel and class rooms if she is to be enabled to carry on the work and to provide the graduates who are always so highly in demand.
 It means much to you personally and 10 your country say the men at the head of the drive, that men of morals, physical strength and knowledge be sent into your midst to carry on affairs of church and state. Holy Cross will do ii
