The farm home of Mrs. J.F. CANN, located one mile east of Superior school and occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Carl REICK, was totally destroyed by fire early Saturday evening, January 6. The fire was first discovered in the second story about 6:30 o'clock and is thought to have originated in a defective flue. Finding themselves unable to extinguish the flames the neighbors assisted in the removal of the furniture, most of which was saved. The loss of the house was partially covered by insurance. Mr. and Mrs. Reick had lived on the place for more than a year. They are now staying in the home of her father, Joe GABLER, in Burlingame.
