The alarm of fire early Yesterday morn
ing originated in an amusing manner. S.
w. Butler got up about sunrise-which is
not SO very early at this season of the year
as to give him a worldwide reputation for
being an early-riser-and happened to
notice what seemed to be a conflagration
raging in neighboring house. He hast
ened to the nearest fire-alarm box and
turned in the signal, then returned home
and found that what he took to be a fire
was in reality only the suns rays shining
into room through window.
