Ao.alarm of fire about 10 o'clock on
Sunday morning called out . lot Of Oul
citizens, when it was found that the
woOlen mill, recently built at the eastern
terminus of East Donegal street, was
Oh fire. The fire was i'm tho coal house
adjoining the boiler room and must have
been smOuldering there for some time, as
the large quantity Of coal stored was we'll
heated. Tho coal house is separated from
the boiler room by partition of brick,
through which the heat was conducted to
the board work of the coal house, setting
it Oh fire. Tho roof was torn off. and
through a hose attached to a..spigOt in the
dyeiDg room, water was cast on the fire
and extinguished. The loss is slight, but
would certainly have been much moro if
the fire would have broken out at night
A Game Of Baseball.
The Millersville baseball club played q
match game of ball with the Daunt!css of
this place on Saturday afternoon. and were
defeated by a score of IA to 8. The game
was exciting and we'll played up to the
eighth inning, the Millcrsvillians being in
the lead. In the sixth inning Wissler,
the catcher. was struck in the eye by a
foul tip and ID. Miller filled that position.
Miller caught nicely, but the change
didn't better their playing. In the
eighth inning, by a streak of heavy bat
ting, the home club, having got used to
BycrIy's curve pitching and assisted by
decentralization among visitors, the Mount
Joy club made nine runs. That settled it,
az will be seen by the appended resnlt:
