One life was lost, property valued at tliirtyfive thousand dollars went np in. smoke, Had it not been for the heroic work of tho firemen, assisted by tho citizens, the whole business seotion of the town would hav| beeji destroyed. Tlio firo started in -McNi'vpn's boarding house, wliich ..had* been partially wrecked liy thelate powder explosion, and spread with great rapidity to adjoining build- tigs, Grant & Mounce'a block caught as also did Campbell Bros,, block. These buildings, adjoining the boarding house were coinplete- iy destroyed and several business firms burned out - ���������'��������� The following merchants are heavy ',losers: Method's gents' furnishings; Campbell Bros.,gene ral store and bakery; Fraser'8 barber shop, and Mrs. Mattel's millinery store. J. McNiven's furniture was almost totally destroyed, loss about two thousand dollars, no insurance. .'���������-**.' The buildings being so close together inade the work of the -firemen very, .difficult, and ..as the town has been handicapped with its water supply of late owing to the recent cold snap, a good stream could not be obtained from tiie' huse. In order to get'more-water the electric light plant was\" shut TljtJX-rnTTtntHlri^ supplyconsiderably.-. . * It is believed that the fire originated in the .room 'occupied by George Reed, a boarder in the Mc- Niven house.
