With a strong wind blowing, It was feared for a time that the entire town was doomed and the Armour fire de partment and its fire fighting appar atus was summoned. The Edward Van de Heer cloth ing store, the L. J. Debeer hardware store, the C. Jen Beste undertaking and furniture establishment and the F. I. Davis produce store were com pltely wiped out. The blaze is thought to have originated from parks from a small bonfire of waste an alley adjoining the Van de Heer store. Fanned by a high wind, the flam es spread so rapidly it was impossi ble to remove any of the contents of the buildings, other than a few val uable paper? and four boxes of dyna mite in the Debeer hardware store.
