Firemen Active
With SmaU^Blaze
Last Thursday evening the firemen had what might have been a serious fire if it had not been put under con¬ trol in time. Smoke was discovered in the Baumann furniture store on Main Street, and it took some consid¬ erable time to locate the blaze, which was caused by a defective flue in the Roulston building, which the chimney had been placed right up against Baumann's building. With the ther¬ mometer around zreo the fire depart¬ ment answered Quickly and put out the blaze by chemical lines, without using any water. .The loss was set¬ tled by C. A. Edwards, agent, for $800.
About noon on Friday the alarm went off again, but evidently by some¬ body's mistake. -
Again Friday night, early in the evening, a call was sent in for the Elks Club House, where the wall had been set on fire in back of the range in the kitchen. This, too, was put out witk a line of hose before much dam-1 age had been done.
