Scott Pauley, who removed from Sullivan to Alexandria with his jewelry store, lost his stock of goods Monday night a week dv fire. Alexandria is one of the growing towns in the natural gas district. An alarm of ore at about one o'clock Wednesday morning brought those of our people who could get awake to the corner of Walnut and 3d streets, where the grocery store building occupied by Joseph Kirby was seen to be wrapped in flames. Fire was blazing from the roof when it was first dis covered, so that there was but little chance for saviug anything. A strong breeze was blowing from the southeast, and soon the Clark black smith shop and the livery stable bmlding recently rented hy Helton Pauley were ablaze and id a short time were burned to the ground. Pauley succeeded in removing his horses, vehicles and harness, but Clark's shop and Kirby 's gmcery were consumed before anything could be removed. The buildings belonged to John Alexander, and were worth about 92,000: on tins he had an insurance of 8800. Kirby's grorery stock he estimates at $2,C0O, with nn insurance of SI ,600. Clark had no insurance. A pile of green wood on the north side of the Kirby grocery broke the torceof the beat and saved the residence; t n r.. ti. i,..:i.i: !. i badly blistered from the effects of the heat.
