Narrow Escape From
Serious Fire Sunday
Prompt and Effective Work of Fire
Department Saves HalversOn's
Store on Third Street

A fire which might have resulted
most disastrously to the business
district of the city of Sank Centre,
was instantly checked last Sunday
afternoon in the upper floor of the
Halverson furniture store.
The blaze was discovered by II. S.
Halverso1 before it had gained suf-
ficient Roadway and the prompt ac-
ton of the city fire department pre-
vented serious damage from being
done to- the Halverson building.
An over heated air-tight stove in
the undertaking rooms over the store
caused the conflagation. Mr.. Halver-
scl who visited the store late in the
afternoon, detected the odor OF
smoke and after an examination OF
conditions, turned in a fire alarm.
The damage to the building was very
slight.
Due to the severe wind prevail
mig at the time and the frigid wealth
er conditions, this fire, had it gained
any Roadway might have proven
very disastrous to the. business dis
trict.
