A SLIGHT FIRE.


Fire was discovered in the house of
George NJ. Howe on Main street, Fri
day morning at about eight O'Clock.
The alarm was Immediately sounded
and the hose company was promptly
on hand, but the fire had been eXtin-
guished by q stream of water from Il
neighbours garden hose. The origin of
the fire should prove Il warning to all
to notice especially the connections of
stove pipes with chimneys. 1t seems
that the tiIiInble of the stove pipe had
become disjointed and the SCOT from
the chimney had worked its way
through the crack down into the parti-
ton of the house. When a fire was
started in the stove the flames follow
ed the SCOT into the partition and Sc
riOus fire was started. The fire had
gained such progress before it was ar
rested that the partition on one side oi
the room had to be built over.
