On Wednesday noon iillro nliirm was
turned In, and InvesiKutlon disclosed
the fact Unit tliu C. 13. & Q depot was
on tiro. It is supposed tlmt sparks
ftotn mi engine caimcd the blaze,
which, when discovered, was on the
roof nt the freight storage rooms
Tho lire department tespondod prompt
ly, but owing to a strong south wind
tho low water pressure, and the head
way which the tiro had gained, they
ete tumble to get the blaze under
control, before tho building had been
almost totally destioyed. Fioin the
olllce room west, Including the gentle
men's waiting room, tho express and
baggage 100m, the freight storage
room and tho transfer sheds, the tire
made a clean sweep.
All ol tho contents of tho building
with tho exoopMou of some storage
goods, was moved out of range of
the lire. A freight car, which was
being loaded on the north side of the
depot, and which contained tho furni
ture of Win. Bear, a jeweler formerly
in tho employ of 10 II. Newhouse, was
totally destroyed.
Agent Hush and his assistants have
taken up temporal y ofileo rooms in a
box car, and It U presumed that the
railroad ofllcialls will at ouce begin
to repair the damage caused by the
lire.
lu 1913 the old building, which thcJ
city had long since out-grown, and
which, by the way, was an eye soro to
the entire community, was worked
over audi e-tnodeled into the structure
which was so badly damaged as above
stated. While this odilice was con
siderable of an improTctnent over tho
one before it, yet at no time lias tho
city ever secured its just dues from
the C. H. iV, Q Red Cloud's promi
nence as a division point, its ideal lo
cation for the receiving and shipment
of stock, and the largo volume of busi
ness handled hero, entitles the city to
better railroad facilities then it has
ever enjoyed. The entire community
would like to see a new, modern brick
striietuto erected now, not on tho
ashes of this old building, but nt a
point nearer the center of the city.
On last Friday evening another
wrestling match was pulled olf in the
N'owhoiisc building with a latgo num
ber ol the city's best in attendance.
Harold Coplen and lOarl MeKlmmey
put oil the Hist picliminary match and
the latur secured tho llist fall. Tom
MeCalley of i'riei.d and Vernon Zeiss
of this city pulled oil' tho second pro
lliiiiiuiiy. They wore both in good
condition and the match lasted fort)
live minutes without a fall With this
mutch Vernon has tetired fiom the
mat
The main wiestling bout of tho even
ing was then put on. Oliver l'owoll
was the refciee and announced as they
took their places, the wiestlers, llus
soil and the Flying Dutchman nud then
the tussle begun. Russell won the Hist
fftll in fort j four inlnutos and the
second one in thirtythree minutes thus
winning tho match It was very In
teresting and both of tho men were nt
their best. Uoy O-itinan olllclated as
time keeper.
Another match will be pulled oil'
here Friday evening, Sept. lUih., at
which time Young Hiissell will meot
Tummy Doctor, who holds tho champ
ionship of Kansas.
