FIRE AT GARRISON!
Fire destroyed the building and
stock of the Taylor-Baldwin Co. at
Garrison early Tuesday evening.
The estimated value was about
$10,000, and was about covered by
insurance. The building was one
of the best in the town, and had
just been completed two weeks.
The old store building, adjoining
the new one, and being used as a
store room, was also burned.
The fire was caused by the re
fusal to work of the safety valve in
the gasoline plant.
The burned building was one of
two stories the upper floor was to
be used for offices, and the lower
floor was used for a general store
and postoffice and central. The
postoffice fixtures and all mail was
saved, but the store goods were a
complete loss.
The postoffice was opened in a
small building next morning and a
telephone put in the office of THE
TIMES.
Little damage was done to the
other buildings. A great many
fires were started around the town,
during the evening, but the Nelson
Bros, were the only other ones who
suffered any loss. The north wall
of their store was burned through
in several places, but the building
was saved by throwing salt, flour
and vinegar on the bunding, water
being a scarce article.
The Taylor Bros.,who had charge
of the store, will put in a stock of
goods at once in Mr. McGray's new
building. Cid Taylor left for the
east Wednesday to order the goods,
showing a true western spirit.
A CUTTING AFFRAY.
In a melee on one of the boats
which was unloading at this point
Thursday, a Russian named Joe
Beines had the end of his nose
nearly cut off, and was cut on the
shoulder, it is alleged, by a knife
in the hands of John Wade, while
under the influence of the bowl that
cheers. It seems that Wade had
gone down to the boat, and Beines
was at work and passed by where
Wade was standing and smiled at
him, when Wade struck him, and
before he recovered, he received
the knife wounds.
Wade was arrested and brought
before Judge Ranard for the pre
liminary hearing, which was held
Monday and Tuesday. Judge Ran
ard bound the man ovei* to the dis
trict court, bail being fixed at $500
and default of which he was turned
over to the custody of the sheriff.
LOST:—A gold pin, a forget-me

turquoise setting in each petal.
