Aix Store Destroyed By Fire Monday Night.

The old Aix store, which tot some time has been run by Warren Zeller®, was totally destroyed by fire Monday night. The only thing saved was Mr. Zeller’s automobile, which was-refeued from a shed in the rear of the store. The Are apparently started from a defective flue. It was discovered at about 11 o’clock, at which time the building was so enveloped in flames that nothing could be saved. The building belonged to Mrs. Anna C. Gilmore, of Fair ' Oaks, who had SSOO insurance, while Mr. Zellers had S3OO on his household goods and S7OO on his stock of goods. He carried from SI,OOO to $1,200 worth of stock. The insurance was in Ray D. Thompson’s agency. It is probable that Mrs. Gilmore will erect a new building there and that Mr. Zellers will again occupy it
