From all indications the store of D. D. S. Robertson, at Sylvan, which burned last Monday night, was blown up with dynamite, as a terrible explo- sion was heard in the neighborhood about the time the fire was discovered, and parts of the building were blown a great distance. The store was a com- plete wreck, and its contents all de- stroyed. It is supposed to have been the work of incendiaries. The loss is not known. From all indications the store of D. D. S.
