Fire!! Fire!!!’? from the vocal organs of our night operator, Prof, D. W. Kinsley, as he hurried and performing such other thing as might have a tendency to rouse the and battle with the firy demon, who already had an angry glance in his eye and was marching triumphantly | onward. There was a stiff breeze blowing from the south which added | fuel to the flames, already leaping high into the morning air. The fire seemed to have originated in the rear ot Downey & Suldan’s butcher shop, which was the middle of the five buildings that were doomed. The fire spread rapidly both east and west until it had reached the sub stantial two story brick of Messrs. Doggart & Hamilton on the east, and a two story bnck of Allie Labor | & Co,, on the west, completely de- stroying all five wooden buildings between them. The first one on the east was occupied by Neff & Hughes as a turniture store. Mucn of their stock was saved, and a great deal lost ; next came Anderson & Pringle. tin and hardware, total loss; next a store occupied by G. N. Hoff and family, who barely escaped with their hives, everything else lost. Next came Kimbro & Hood’s lunch room, a two story trame a total loss. The citizens responded promptly and . fought mantully with buckets, tubs, &c., and by their united action kept the fire trom burning the build- ings on the north side ot the street, though they present a blistered ap- pearance, they look much, better than a pile of ashes would this cold morning. It 1s impossible to esti- mate the loss now, but it is serious enough. Mr. Hoff and tamily are mm almost destitute circumstances, Frax Szep and all kinds of Grass Seeds at 14-3t BENNETT, WHEELER & Co. Property Changes. On account of the bright prospects of getting the new railroad, the boom has struck Butler and land has begun to slide. P. C. Fulkerson, T. J. Day and J. T. Hyatt, purchased the vacant square ot ground just north of Hurley & Co.’s lumber yard on North Main street, of James Keep, and will at an early date erect handsome residences. The block 1s a beautiful piece of ground and one ot the prettiest building sites in the city, and was bought at a bargain. About the same time this sale was made Capt. I. N. Davidson disposed ot his large brick store house on the west side of the square to J. M. Cat- terlin, who will fit it up and use it for his abstracting business. W. H. Caldwell, just east of town sold his farm for $35 per acre, to James M, Webb. Monday morning N. B. McFarland traded his farm located in the bottoms south of town toR. T. Railey, ot Harrisonville, for his North Main street brick store building. In addition to the above we understand there are several other big trades in real estate which will take place probably next week. Keep up the boom, there is nothing like transferring deeds and keeping realestate on the move, Cireuit Court Proceedings.
