ROTH BROS. SLAUGHTER HOUSE BURNED

The Roth Bros, slaughter house, located about half a mile west of town, on the bank of the river, was destroyed by fire yesterday forenoon, the blaze starting from a fire which had been built under a feed cooker. No one was about the building at the time and the fire had made good headway before it was discovered. The fire company was called but the building was consumed upon their arrival. The loss will be several hundred dollars.
