A History of the Several Fires Which
' Occurred at Arago and Vicinity.
IM
m
The assertion that it was an over­
valuation compromised his father
Judge Schroeder, w h o was ngont of
the company and had taken his sons
risk. Therefore to vindicate him
self and father he made an appeal
to tho board of directors and sus'
tained his appeal with the following
affidavits:
Capt. \V. T. McCloskey value of
merchandise $2000 based his valua­
tion on his fathers stock at Norway,
the value of which he knew. Sam’l
Johnson and 11. C. Lehmonowskv
merchants of Myrtle Point who
were in the store a few days prior
to the fire— merchandise in sight
$1500.
There were three small
wareroonas nil of which had goods
of value in them and much under
the counters and in drawers not in
sight. B. C. Rucker, merchandise
$2500, Martin Wallace, merchandise
$2500. These last two gentlemen
are commercial men (drummers)
who had visited the store a few days
before the fire soliciting orders.
Wm. T. Miller, Chas. E. G. Dietz
and Chas. Schroeder carpenters who
help construct the buildings and
other carpenters towit: Jas. D.
Clinton and E. B. Fish made affulu
vits placing the value of the build-
iogn at $650 and over and fixtures
at $250 and over. Unfortunately
these affidavits were destroyed at the
recent fire.
Mr. Schroeder’s merchandise ac.
count showed the value of merchan­
dise on hand to be about $2400.
The board o f directors sustained
tho adjuster subsequently it was
found that the adjuster had visited
and consulted a number of the
neighbors and a few of them volun­
teered to make affidavits if necessary
that there was Dot over $250 or $300
worth of merchandise in the store
at the time of the fire. Mr. Schroe­
der therefore decided not to cu
mence business again at Arago.
After paying all of his creditors in
full he had a few hundred dollars
left.
The boiler and engine of the
shingle mill being but slightly dam
aged and F. Muetzel & Son haying
lost their all and being iu debt to
Mr. Schroeder for part of their in­
terest in (he shingle mill and fur
supplies he decided it best to give
these people a chance to again build
up and at least partially pay him
their indebtedness. Therefore he
seccured a shingle weaving machine
for them and they rebuilt the m.’ll
on Albert Miller’s place near Arago
and started to cut shingles on the
9th of May 1902.
On June 14th just one year from
other lire about midnight the mill
was again destroyed. The fire when
discovered was inside the file room
the only portion of the mill entirely
enclosed and farthest from tho boil­
er. A number of the neighbors ex­
amined tho premises early the next
morning and they decided that the
fire was of incendiary origin.
Through the persuasion of his
father and a few personal friends
who volunteered financial assist­
ance, and the wholesale houses with
whom he had done business, giving
him assistance of their good will,
he changed his deeission and built
u neat store building on the site of
the Arago Creamery, and commenc­
ed business again in November,
1902.
About the 20th of April, 1903,
lie received the following letter:
James McNaughton, a close friend
who made him his heir, he came
into possession o f some property on
Halls creek and two lots in Baadon,
of the probable value of $700 or
more.
After turniDg over to his
creditors all of bis book and bauk
accounts and his insurance, all of
this with his labor and accummuta­
tion of eighteen years will be
over $1500 in debt.
He is a crip­
ple with an invalid wife and three
children to care for.
His wife has
been bedfast since the recent fire
with spinal meningitis caused by ex­
posure at and shock over the fire
und worry over their present con­
dition.
The foregoing history is authent­
ic The facts have been gathered
from tboae who know them. There
are many false impressions connect­
ed with these fires and therefore the
H kiuld deemed it advisable to se­
cure the facts relating thereto and
places them before its readers.
Within the last four years there
have been six fires at Arago and
vicinity, five of which have been,
without doubt, i f incendiary origin.
The first of the scries was the de­
struction of the Arago Creamery,
the pioneer creamery of Coos coun­
ty.
This fire occurred in April,
1900, and at 6:30 o’clock in the af­
ternoon. The original cost of the
plant was over $8000, insurod for
$2000, in the Lower Columbia Fire
Relief Association.
The adjust­
ment of this loss was satisfactorly
arranged.
The adjuster, after examining in­
to the cause of the fire decided that
it was through the carelessness of

disagreeable symptoms. Anti-Pi ain Pills are
the best of remedies for backache, neuralgia.

“ With the greatest pleasure I recommend
Dr. Miles’ Anti-Pain Pills to everyone who
suffers from nervous or sick headache. All

of a very severe nature, and have tried many
powders and other remedies without success.
By chance I tried Dr. Mi es’ Anti Pain Pills
and they gave immediate relief. Never
since the first dose have I been troubled
with headache. Whenever I feel It coming
on I take one or two Pain Pills and it all
disappears."—W illiam B rown , Genesee,
Idaho.
This if to certify that I have used Dr.
