Tho millinery stock of Mrs 15 15
Mitcholl located in tho Mipos building
first door wost of Heeler Bros was to
tally destroyed by lire at an early hour
this morning
At 2 oclock Perry Harrington who
was on duty as night watchman saw a
small bWo start near tho fiont of the
store utidor tho counter on tho oast side
Knowing that people wore sleeping in
tho store ho stopped for a moment to
arouse thorn before giving the nlarm
ami boforo ho had left tho building the
fire had Hpread across the wholo front
end of tho store The fire department
responded promptly to the alarm but by
the time tho firemen were on tho
ground it Hoomcd that it would bo im
possible to savo either building or stock
The grocery store of G M Thompson
islocatod iu the same building only hop
aratod from the millinery store by a ono
inch board partition For a tlino thoro
was good prospect that both stocks
would bo totally dostroyod but tho firo
men went to work with thoir accus
tomed energy ami intelligence aud by
well directed effous succeeded iu pre
venting the firo from breaking through
tho partition except in a fow places al
though tho boards of tho partition are
nearly all bumod moro than half through
At a fow points tho flamos crept through
tho partition and tho Thompson stock is
damaged considerably by breakage
smoke and water Wltoit ono views the
scone of tho firo he must give tho Nor
folk department ci edit fordoing almost
superhuman work to prevont both stocks
aud tho entire building from going
Tho boys had plenty of water and a good
pressure to work with aud they accom
plished one of tho tnost ellectivo victories
over fire which they now have to thoir
credit
Tho millinery stock was owned by
Mrs E 13 Mitchell who has been ab
sent in Iowa for a week on a visit Her
son-in-law II G Fleming aud his wife
were sleeping in tho room at the rear of
tho store and tho young man says that
when they were awakened by tho
watchman they only had timo to par
tially dress before they were obliged to
escape on account of tho approaching
heat Fleming saved a pair of pants
coat undershirt and shoes while his
wife fared a little better saving a con
siderable portion of her clothing which
was where it could bo gathetod up easily
in their light The stock is a total
wreck A stove aud some pieces of
kitchen furniture at the back end of the
building were not seriously injured
Fleming states that ho does not know
just the value of his
stock but estimates that it was worth
about 1000 She carried S0O worth of
insurance on stock nnd 150 on furniture
and fixtures iu agency of Clements is
Ransom
Tho stock of G M Thompson was
damaged through breakage of glass aud
china smoke aud water to a serious ex-
teut Mr Thompson said this morning
that he could not tell how great his loss
would bo until open cases of goods aro
tested to seo how much they aro affected
by smoke but he placed au estimate of
the damage at 1000 to 1200 He
carries 1500 insurance
Burt Mapes owns the double building
and carries an insurance of 2200 in tho
agency of C B Durland The room
where the millinery stock was will havo
to be practically rebuilt The plate
glass windows are gone a big hole is
burned through the coiling tho floor is
badly damaged and the walls are so
demoralized that they will have to bo
wholly replasterod J t is probable that
the cost of putting the buildiug in as
good condition ns it was last night will
be anywhere between 1000 to 1500
This is the third niilliuory firo tlmt
has occurred iu this city during the past
year aud as iu both other cases the
manner in which it started is shrouded
iu mystery Young Fleming states
that there had been no fire iu the front
end of the room during tho day no
lamps were left burniug after 10 oclock
last night and there were no old rags or
anything else to causo spontaneous com
bustiou Asked as to his theory of tho
origin of the fire he stated that ho had
no idea how it started His Btory in
regard to tho nbseuce of lighted lamps
is agreed with by the night watchman
who says that when he first saw the
blae through the wiudow the room
was in darkness until the fire had
gained such headway that it lighted up
