.|NCENDIARY FIRE DAMAGES GROCERY STPPED BY QUICK WORK Proprietors Believe Burglars Started Blaze in West Side Grocery
 Christmas Night.

Fire, undoubtedly of incendiary ori- gin, caused damage to the stock and fixtures of the West Side Grocery, 107 West Main street, and to the building, owned by Joe D. Jones, at midnight Christmas. The fire was confined to the ceiling of the building, where there were numerous eviden- ces that it was purposely started. but practically the entire stock was water soaked. The grocery is owned by E. C. Thomson, former assistant post master of Conway, and Roy Evans. They estimated the damage today at S700 to $500 and stated that their loss was protected by insurance. Dam age to the building probably will not exceed $200 to $300 and it was also covered by insurance.
 An early discovery of the fire and quick work by the city department prevented the total destruction of the large double building and possibly a spread to adjacent property. Some young men coming home from a dance at the Woodmen hall saw dense clouds of smoke pouring from the store and turned in the alarm In a few min utes Fire Chief Dickerson and his as sistants had laid a line of hose and had a stream of water playing into the ceiling.
 After the fire was extinguished an examination disclosed the fact that a large hole had been sawed in the ceil- ing and through it piles of excelsior, boxes, bags and other infammable material had been taken and scatter ed on the upper surface of the ceiling, saturated with coal oil and ignited.
 The theory of the proprietors of the store is that it was entered by burg lars who endeavored to burn the place in order to cover up evidence of the robbery. A considerable amount of the stock was stolen, they stated, the loss from this cause being almost as much as from the fire and water damage.
