FIRE-

Completely

t

Destroys theHandsome Residence-

of Judge DishmanTuesday Night

Loss Perhaps 5000 Insu ¬

Fonda 5000

Tuesday night a few minutesbefore 7 oclock the cry of firewas heard and in a very shorttime almost every citizen of ourtown was on the scene of the conllagration

When first discovered the irehad broken out in the attic overthe bathroom iIi the rear of thehouse but before sullicientwalercould be secured the lames hadspreadand gained such headwaythat the building was doomed

The young men of Union Col ¬

leg were among the first to ar-

rive and worked heroicly to savethe house hut when it was seenthat this could not b done wil ¬

ling hands sonn cleared the en ¬

tire building of oil the furnitureand almost every article was sav ¬

edThe building was a large subsstantial two story brick withslate roof and on account of thbpoof the lames had spreadthroughout the entire top of thdbuilding before the fire eat itsway through the heavy roof

The only theory that can beadvanced as to the origin of thelire is that it was started by miceorrats as there had been no firein the house since Sunday

The cooking all being donewith gas there was no possibleway for it to have started thefire and besides where fta8

ovrrtheney or flue near that part of thehoute so that there con 11 havebeen no way for it to have startedexcepte as statedFor three hours the flames roar ¬

ed before the building was allconsumed aa the fire fed downfrom the top slowly

Judge Dishman stated to theAdvocate man while the fire wasburning that he had 3000 insu ¬

rance on the house and 1000 ontime furniture Later in the eve ¬

ningMr Tinsley one of the Instir nee agents stated that hispolicy had lapsed so he thoughthe hadno insurance whateverexcept as he tjipught the 1000on the furniture

Wednesday morning howeverhe found to his glad surprisethat during his absence last Julyhis wife had taken out a policyfor 2000 on his house and 500on the furniture and also withthis good news he discoveredthat the 8000 policy with MrTinsleys company had not claps ¬

eelso he had 5000 insuranceon the house and 500 on thefurniture

Time furniture was almost allsaved but some of it was dam ¬

aged in the removal from theburning building

The loss is estimatedto beabout 8000on the house so thatwhile the inurance will notfully cover it yet it will go a-

long way toward erecting anoth ¬

er home While everyone sym ¬

pathizes with this excellent fam ¬

ily in their loss we allrejoicethat they were so well protectedby insurance at the time whenit was so badly needed

Judge Dishman has uotj fullydecided as yet just what he willdo but it goes without sayingthat he will erect a modern brickresidence at once upon the siteto take the place of the one de ¬
