About 2 O'Clock on Wednesday morning,
the 2lst inst, fire broke out in the tramps'
room in the Jail. A solitary tramp occupied
the room. The fire kindled overhead, from
the stove-pipe, while he slept. Smoke,
flame and dreadful heat aroused him and
caused him to shout as only man who Is
confined in prison-room can shout when
fire threatens him with its tortures. The
tramp's cry was caught up by other inmates
of the prison, and thence the thrilling cry
of Firel Fire got out into the streets.
The bell on the Lutheran church was rung,
until the alarm had aroused a sufficient
number of citizens to insure the extinguish-
ment of the fire. Many citizens did not
hear the alarm. Ii was a narrow escape
from destruction for the Jail. Its loss
would have been greatly felt, by the tax
payers, for to rebuild would require large
additional Indebtedness.
