CANDY SUFFERS
$275,0o0 LOSS
Most Destructive Fire Since 1893
Last Friday

Candy had the misfortune last Friday
afternoon. July 23rd, to lose it's biggest
and one of it's oldest institutions in the
most serious blaze since 1898, when a
fire of uncertain origin, starting appar-
emily near the top of the Candy Flour
Mills shortly before o'clock within q
space of about two hours, completely
destroyed the mill and connecting eleI
vators, warehouse, powerhouse office
etc, and seriously threatened for a time

property loss to mill property, store
houses and residences, etc. is placed at
upwards Of $275. $500 of which amount
about $4,000 represents the loss Of the
Candy Flour Mill property.
Fire Spread Rapidly
The fire, which spread with almost
unbelievable rapidity to all parts of
the big frame structure of the combin-
ed MILL elevators and flour warehouse,
was first signaled to the town by mill
engineer, Guy Rosenow, at a minute or
two before two o'clock when he sounded
the steam siren-whistle of the mill.
While the fire department and a crowd
of several hundred persons gathered,
mill employees, busy at their tasks on
three floors had more or less thrilling
escapes, so fast did the flames spread.

third floor. found his escape cut off by

Ludwiq's Mishap

Ludwig Glarum, city detective is
wearing a black band on his left arm
as a mourning sign for his lost repu-
tation. Glarum for years has held the
undisputed sartorial championship of
the police force and has been pointed
out to many city visitors as the Beau
Brummel of the force
But last week Captain Frank Regan,
with malice aforethought, officers say,
detailed Glarum and his partner, Melvin
Passolt to watch over a room where a
large supply of the liquid JOY of former
days was stored. For 4S hours the two
men kept vigil and when no one appear
ed to claim the liquor the detectives re-
ported to Captain Regan, who ordered

1t was done. And Glarum came with
it, But his trousers were Wrinkled, his
beard had grown nearly an inch, his
face was dirty, and his collar wilted
When his brother detectives glimpsed
him thru the fog, they removed the
crown from "Sartorially perfect Mr.
Glarum" and placed it upon the modest
brown of John Rogers, night desk ser.
geant. Glarum, however, after wash
ing up, declared his right to the title
and another election will be conducted
soon, according to William Carol, Sec
retary of the police federation, to de.
termine which of the two deserves the

Tragedy in Milwaukee Coal Car

One Of the tragedies incident to the
movement Of harvest hands that occurs
to some community every year TOOK
place a freight car about Minnesota
Falls a two o'clock Saturday morning.
AS we CLEAN the particulars some eight
men were occupying a SrOdOla or open
coal car and were coming east. AS they
report the shooting that occurred, 1t
seems two men boarded the car to hold
them up with a revolver and there be-
ing suspicious moves made by the vic
tim or the one next him, they fired and
the bullet passed thru the heart of IA :
Vid Webster Gibson of Greenport, North
Carolina. negro, killing him Instantly
The bandits fled when they found what
they had done. Sheriff Sunde and de-
puties were at once notified but up to
this writing no trace of them have been
found. 1t is just possible the bunch
quarreled among themselves in the car
and as a result the negro was shot.
Such things are hard to hunt down yet
1t sometimes happens that murder will
out. If the authorities can keep tab
on his comradesn the car there may be
future Developments, at least that ap-
pears to be the general opinion
The county coroner held an inquest
Willmar tribune., 1920-08-04

on the body and the verdict was that
the deceased came to his death from a
bullet wound in the heart fired by some
one unknown. The body was taken off
here and taken to the undertaking rooms
of Lumley & Smith and attempts made
to locate his relatives. There not being
any word received up to Monday noon
the remains were inferred in the ceme-
terry here. Not having any money nor
anyone to vouch for him the expense
will be borne by the county. Late on
Monday telegram came from a sister
asking it he had any money on him and
for particulars about his death.-Ren-
