$40,000 DAMAGE IN
DOWNTOWN BLAZE
Three Building? Housing Bowling
Alleys, Livery Barn and Furni-
ture Destroyed.
SEVERAL BLOCKS MENACED
Fire of unknown origin com
pletely destroyed the buildings 'oc
cupied by the State Furniture com
pany, the Huntington Bowling Al
leys and the Harney Livery Barns,
at 1313-15-17-19 Harney street,, early
this morning. Over three hours were
spent by the fire department in gain
ing control of the flames. The loss
was. estimated at $40,000, ?5,000 on
the buildings and $35,000 on contents.
- Shortly after midnight, Night
Watchman Carl Saplngton of the
Krug theater noticed smoke in the
rear of the State-Furniture company
warehouse on the second floor of the
buildings at the above number. The
rear of the building was already in
flames. Sapington's alarm brought
hose companies Nos 2, 4 and 3 to the
scene. Five steamers responded to a
second alarm.
Over 100 head of horses were
stabled in the barn on the lower floor
of the building and it was only
through the untiring efforts of the
firemen and barn employes that they
were taken from the stable safely.
Several carloads of hay, recently
placed in the loft, were destroyed.
Benjamin Brodkey, president of the
State Fnrniture company, Thirteenth
and Dodge streets, in speaking of the
firm's losses said:
. "We had just replenished our stock.
I think there was about $15,000 worth
of furniture in the warehouse. We
have about $10,000 insurance on the
place."
A. M. Huntington, proprietor of the
bowling Alleys on the lower floor of
the building, estimated his damage at
$10,000, partly covered by insurance.
L. A. Meeker, manager of the livery
barn,' thought damage to the barn will
reach $10,000.
"I can give no cause for the fire as
yet," stated Chief Deneen. -
Earl Carl, 2734 North Thirteenth
street, who was sitting in a restaurant
near the scene of the fire, reported
that he heard three explosion about
the time the fire broke out, though
the owners of the various business
places state they knew no com
bustible materials in any of their
places.
Heavy Rains Are
Reported North of
The Platte River
While there was but little rain in
the South Platte country, according
to Tuesday's reports to the rail
roads, that part of Nebraska north of
the river was visited by one of the
heaviest downpours ai the season
Monday night.
The heavy rain extended east about
as far as West Point, and as far west
as Long Fine, and then to the north
and over most of the Black Hills di
vision of the road, according to the
Northwestern's report. The precipi
tation was from one to three inches.
Along the Burlington there was
rain along the northern lines and up
through the sandhills, the precipita
tion being about the same as along
the Northwestern. While some of
the smaller streams are out of their
banks and the low lands flooded in
places, no damage was reported.
The rail over most of the area
visited started tf fall Monday after
noon and continued most of the
night.
FLAG DAY PROGRAM OF
MUSIC AT BEMIS PARK
A special Flag day program of
music will be given by the Greater
Omaha band this evening at 7:30
in Bemis park. Numerous patriotic
airs will be played 'as well as some
popular songs and classic numbers.
J. M. Finn is director of' the band.
The next concert after this one will
be given at Miller park Sunday at
2:30 p. m.
Four hundred bakers of bread and
pies, and a half thousand Elks, who
stampeded into Omaha from all over
the state yesterday, were entertained
at Ak-Sar-Ben Den last night.
They saw Coronado "throw the
bull," and heard him, too, for that
matter. "Coronado and the Bull"
pleased the visitors immensely, as was
expressed in the two-minute talks
that followed by Adam Brcede of
Hastings, J. H. Kulins of North
Platte, and T. Doremus of Wilming
ton, Del.
They Were good sports, every one
of these speakers, for when Chair
man Jay Burns announced that the
speeches must be cut to two minutes,
these fellows cut them to a minute
and eight seconds.
"Ah, those are speeches after my
own heart," sighed many of the Oma
ha fellows, who in bygone years have
listened to superelongated speeches
from one James Dahlman, one Charles
Lobeck, one Dave Mercer, and others,
when election was near and hot sand
wiches seemed so near and yet miles
away.
Visitor! Are Lively.
These Elks and bakers constituted
the liveliest and friskiest humanity
the Den crew has attempted to handle
this year. Twenty Elks, just when
the crew had them properly corralled
and was putting the branding irons on
them, broke through the fences, and
stampeded back into the crowd, leap
ing clear of every obstacle, and
hurtling over the heads of some of
their would-be captors. Some of them
were dragged back to the fence by
sheer physical force, and one of them
came back with Dan Whitney locking
the strangle hold about his neck.
Between acts a big canvas was
dropped over the curtain, bearing the
