WHEATON,ILL. 



On Wednesday evening, July 28, near 

 the hour of midnight, one of the build- 

 ings at E. T. Wanzer's establishment 

 was destroyed by fire. The building 

 measured 20x120, and contained the 

 work room, boiler room, cut flower room, 

 ■coal shed, etc. The fire seems to have 

 originated, in some unaccountable way, 

 in the work room, and had gained con- 

 siderable headway before it was dis- 

 covered. By starting the engine, so as 

 to obtain high pressure, a stream of 

 water was brought to bear on the flames, 

 but soon a faucet was melted off, and 

 this equipment was thus disabled. 



There were 160 tons of coal in the 

 "bins, and there was apparently no hope 

 of saving it. When it was discovered, 

 however, that the pump was still in 

 working order, a six horse-power traction 

 engine was brought on the scene, a tem- 

 porary water line was arranged, some 

 lines of greenhouse hose were attached 

 and the fire was gradually subdued. In 

 the afternoon the plants, or such of them 

 as had escaped destruction, also received 

 a little of the precious water. The main 

 range of greenhouses was only slightly 

 damaged. The men on the place, as well 

 as the neighbors, gave heroic aid in fight- 

 ing the flames. 



The Challenge Co., of Batavia, HI., was 

 at once communicated with, the old boiler
