ings were saved. Yet it was the mir¬ acle of'hard, persistent work, hour after hour, by men who would not give up. The writer saw men, within a few feet of the flomes, who worked so long that their faces were fairly blist¬ ered by the heat, and never a man aeemed willing to give up. The firer men deserve a whole lot of credit for their good work. Mention should be made of the good oflSces of the women who supplied coffee and aandwichea to the men for which they were grateful, as the rnorning was cold and working at a fire soon depletes onea energy. The loas is a heavy one for Cox, Wend¬ ler and Van Tuyl, as they had only been in buaineas about nine montha. They had a large stock of new. lumber, nearly all of which waa consumed. The buildings on the property were owned by Young Brothers, who had a disastrous fire about three years «go.- Nothing is known definitely as to the origin of the fire.
