Trae TowNy oF Mii. Harn FIRE
Swept. —Shortly before noen, on last
Friday, the barn on the rear of Frank
Welsh’s property, on Main street, in
Mill Hall was discovered to be on fire
and though then confined to a little
frame building the flames never stopped
until they had licked the very heart out |
! of the town and left ruins where the
most substantial buildings had stood.
The fire swept a swath two squares
wide from the extreme western end of
town to the mountain on the east, and
there, not content at baving destroyed
so much property and having left so
many families homeless, the fiery mon-
ster leaped and danced on into the moun-
tains, where the flames are still raging.
It is not known how the fire started.
Some are of the opinion that boys, who
were seen playing with fire crackers
about the stable, are responsible, while
others believe that the new hay with
which the mow was filled became
ignited from its own heat.
The town had no organized fire de-
partment, but the bucket brigade -turn-
ed out and did its best to keep the
flames from spreading. A high wind,
however, carried them to Welsh’s house
and then the fire was beyond the control
of their limited means of fighting it.
The only resource was to appeal to
Lock Haven for aid. A fire engine
was promptly dispatched from that
place. but by the time of its arrival the
fire had gained such headway that an
appeal for another Lock Haven engine
was sent in and Mayor Gray, of Belle-
fonte, was asked to send an engine
down to help the other firemen. The
wires had scarcely stopped ticking off
the appeal ’ere the Logans had their
steamer down at the Central station
ready to board the train which Supt
Gephart had made up and generously
run to Miil Hall without cost to the
citizens of that place. As there hap-
pened to beno flat cars near the station
it tock a few moments to get one up
from the junction and then the steamer
was loaded and the firemen and the
press reporters occupied a coach which
made up the train. Engine ‘Nehasa-
ne”, with Chas. Gilmour on the box,
pulled it out and the run was made in
just forty minutes. Quick as the
trip had been made when our firemen
arrived at Mill Hall they found the fire
about out. Everything in the way of
the flames had been destroyed and the
Lock Haven firemen were busy putting
out the burning embers, The Logans
took their engine off and assisted with
the work until 7 o’clock when it was
safe to leave and the return trip was
made.
The town of Mill Hall is the home of
many mechanics employed in the axe-
works there and the loss of their homes
means the loss of life time savings to
most of them. Some of the lots were
swept so clean by the flames that it was
difficult for owners of properties to lo-
cate their own after the fire.
To the onlooker, who arrived after
the fire had gone out, the scene Was a
sad one indeed. Here and there could
be seen a group of women and children
crying about a pile of broken furniture
—each claiming the little that had been
saved—while the men worked on in
their hope of stamping out the last spark
that told of the destruction of their
homes. Several pigs were lying about,
burned to a crisp, while others were only
blistered and suffering. No other ani
mals are known to have perished.
The Mayor of the town has sent ouj
an appeal to the citizens of the State for
aid and well is it needed, for there are
families in Mill Hall to-day who have
not an article with which to furnish a
home and who have lost every cent they
owned.
Those who were insured are begin-
ing to rebuild and the town will soon
present a scene of activity again.
THE PROPERTIES DESTROYED.
A. A. Wilt’s grocery ; George Hick-
off’s residence ; Five buildings and hall
of Freeman Brady; W. H. Mann's
residence; Dr. McCloskey’s residence
and drug store; Wesley Brady's resi-
dence and store; Joseph Bartholomew’s
residence and barber shop ; Wilt house;
Mackey house; George Bressler’s resi-
dence ; New Disciple church ; D. H,
Stoner’s residence and tin store; Smith
Marshall’s grocery ; Roff’s residence ;
Mrs. Erie Carstetter’s tenement house .
In addition to the above buildings
about twenty stables were burned.
Nearly all the occupants of the burn-
ed out houses succeeded in getting all
their goods out safely, but unfortunate-
ly the flames spread so rapidly that ma-
ny of the goods were burned in the
yards and on the street.
The Valley Chief office was one of the
unfortunates, being located in Brady’s
hall. The P.O. S. of A. in the same
hall lost its furniture.
The larger number of those burned
out had ro insurance, and the loss will
fall very heavily upon them.
D. Scott Currin, had just about finish-
ed fitting up the Valley Chief office. He
estimates his loss at about $3,000 on
which there is not a cent of insurance.
Freeman Brady is the heaviest loser.
He places his loss at $10,000.
THOSE WHO WERE INSURED.

insured received their papers from
