unfortunate ones in having his stock
and FIXTURES considerable xlamsged
by fire and water in the disasterous
fire sf week ago, lis again ready
for business in the Kinney Block oc-

by the bursting of a water pipe IN
the rooms above his store in the
Northern Hotel block and much of
his holiday stock was damaged. This

was part of the game. He says
