The restaurant and were in the same building a partition between them. The restaurant portion was divided in two rooms the cooking department being in the rear. It was in this cook room that the fire started, and it had progressed enough to burst through the roof when found. The and bar room were both burned up, and the ice house on the same property nearly half consumed. The firemen did some of the quickest and best work at this fire that they have ever done. In ten minutes from the time the engine left its quarters had a stream on the burning buildings, and not- withstanding the ice house looked like it was a solid of they put it out and checked the fire.
