A Disastrous Fire at Germantown, Nd

A Disastrous Fire at Germantown. Nd
Fire broke out in the large merchan-
disc and hardware store of Walters &
Thrift at Germantown, at IL o'clock
Friday morning, March 5th, which de-
stroyed the entire property, and, at one
time threatened a large part OF the
town. The fire was first discovered by
Clifton Howard who thought he smell.
ed oil burning, and upon going out side
OF his house he could see smoke coming
out Of the basement Of the store. He
at once went to alarm the town. He
first attracted the attention of A. r.
Selby, who is at the head of the large
flour mill at that place, and Mr.
Howard with Mr.. Selby were the first
ones on the scene. The large whistle
at the mill was tied down and it was a
very short time until the whole town
and surrounding community were
alarmed and on the ground. Waters
& Thrift directed to moving of con-
siderable merchandise from the large
warehouse near the store but it was
impossible to even get inside of the
main building, due to the fire being
at that time burning in the large oil
tank in the basement of the store.
Several families were compelled TO
move out due to the excessive smoke
caused by the burning oil, the large
crowd worked with all its might to
save the large flour mill of The Liberty
Milling Co. which was just opposite of
the burning store, at one time il was
thought that the entire plant would
be destroyed but by hard work and the
aid of the large water tank in the top
of the mill it was saved
The burning of the Post Office caus-
ed quite tie up. Mr.. w. u. Bow
man, who is Postmaster, at once noti-
fed the department at Washington,
who sent an inspector to try and re-es-
tablish temporary Post Office which
was hard job, as there was hundreds
of pieces Of mail destroyed in the fire,
the Post Office handles great amount
Of mail and runs several rural carriers
ont through the country. The loss was
$4,000 and was covered by insurance
