STORM VICTIM HAD RELATIVES HERE

Late Charles Fiesler of Minneapolis Was a Brother of J. H. Evans of Brainerd

WAS MILL CITY DRUGGIST

Wind Tore Cornices From Store, Windows Caved in And The Owner Died of Heart Disease


Charles Fiesler, who lost his life during the storm that struck twin cities on Wednesday night, was a brother of J. H. Evens, 308 North Ninth street, Brainerd, and was well known in this city. His name was changed through adoption.

Mr. Fiesler was born at Sauk Center, where he operated a drug store for a number of years. At the time of his death he conducted a similar business at 109 West Rustic Lodge avenue, Minneapolis, and it was there that he died.

According to Minneapolis papers, Mr. Fiesler was in his drug store when the storm broke on Wednesday evening, about 6 o'clock. He sent his clerk, Gordon Blaisdell, to move a Ford truck that stood in front of the store and as the clerk got into the truck it sailed away down the street before the wind.

Mr. Fielder ran outside and then back into the store again, as the front windows caved in. A moment later the wind tore the cornices from the building and as these crashed to the ground the owner of the store collapsed.

He died from heart disease a half hour later.

Mr. and Mrs. Evans and sons George of Brainerd and Frank of Duluth left this afternoon for Minneapolis where they will attend the funeral, to be held in that City on Saturday.
