FIRE.-At about ten o'clock on
Wednesday morning the residence
of Levi Davis was discovered to be
on 6rc, the smoke coming out all
through the roof and upon the north
side. Our people promptly rallied
and after desperate effort the
Names were extinguished. The fire
appears to have originated around
the ventilator passing through the
chamber floor, and before discovered
had spread between the lath and
floor over about half the building
and up the wall, and SO to most of
the north side CT the roof. It was
an exceeding narrow escape and
should admonish all to examine their
Aues.

ATTEMPTED INoEMDIARIsM.-Ol

ATTEMPTED INoExD1ARIsM.-On
Friday evening last about half past
nine the alarm of fire was raised,
calling the people out rather hurried
ly. Arriving at the place Of the
outcry it was ascertained that the
grocery store Of Mr.. Usher was on
fire, the blaze streaming out through
the siding about two feet up from
the ground. A single pail Of water
served to extinguish the devouring
element, but speculation was rife as
to its cause. Examination disclosed
knot hole out of which the FIRE
came. Removing the siding was
disclosed portion of a sheet of tin
foil or lead, such as is used in tea
chests, enclosing burned and par
TALLY burned paper which had been
ignited and used for the purpose of
bringing on a conhagration.
From the bungling manner Of do
ing the job the incendiary evidently
was not an expert. Nor is it prob
able that he was looking for plumber,
for grocery with quite limited
stock affords but poor opportunities
for such an avocation. Nor is it
possible that it could have been done
for spite, for nearly dozen others
than Mr.. Usher must have been suf-
ferers by the fire and among them
all, would have been some one or
more that an incendiary for spite
against Usher, would have hesitated
to injure.
Mr.. Usher We are told was insur-
ed for $14O0, while with the excep-
ton of one, all the others in the
row were uninsured.
Pieces Of paper corresponding to
that found charred in the fuse used
for creating the fire have been found,
but they do not of themselves
establish the guilt Of any one.
