by all men- for any
man for you. It is
suited to the need of
any business , either
large or small. It makes

Post Office and General Store Burned.
The general store of Max E.
, Viertel at Crookston was burned
to the ground Monday night. The
\ blaze started in the rear end ol
1 the building about midnight and
when discovered the interior was
a sheet of flame. The post office
was located in the north room and
the flames had made such head
way that nothing of value could be
saved. The building on the north
belonging to St. Francis Mission
was also destroyed. By hard
work the oil house and barn on
the east were saved. The origin
of the fire is unknown. Every
thing was apparently all right
when the 10:30 : passenger went
through and the Viertels were
arousid from their slumber to
fiiid the buildiiig on fire.
The loss is covered by insurance.
