THE CALLED MEETING.
City Board to Establish Lines on Third
Street An Ordinance Passed De-
fning vagrancy.

A question Of doubt as to the
boundary line on Third street lie
tween franklin and Main having
arisen, meeting of the city board
was necessary to settle the quest n
before Mr.. Glenn and the Knights OF
PyLhias could safely proceed with
their blocks Of buildings, just COM
menced on the franklin corner.
These parties purchased the lots from
Charles Anglen some time since, and
when it came to applying the meas
ure Mr.. Glenn's property proved to
be six feet short of what his deed
calls for, and the question now is
whether Third street is properly To-
Gated or not.
The board had q lively meeting,
Alderman Beach presiding in the
absence Of the Mayor. This question
was generally discussed and the
board finally ordered that Marshal
Stacker and Engineer Thomas should
make the proper survey and locate
the boundary line on Third street,
which will be done today.
An ordinance was then introduced
and passed first reading defining va
grancy. The present vagrant laws
are not sufficiently stringent to break
of certain class who lay around to
plan mischief. The object is to clean
the city of house,breakers, saloon
gamblers and houses OF i'll repute. The
ordinance covers all these things and
defines vagrancy to the extent that
there can be no mistake in dcalin.
with offenders. Parties under sus
picion must have some visible means
Of support; that is, some active en-
ployment by which people may
know that they are in honest pur
suit of living.
II will not do for man to simply
show his money or prove his bank
account, and the recorder is given
his discretion in assessing fines from
IS to $50 and imprisonment. The or
dinance is in the hands OF the city
attorney for perlecting, and making
strong, when it will be passed at the
next meeting by unanimous vote on
second reading, becoming law
This was "A good evenings work in
the right direction, and it will prove
blessing to the city in many ways.
The board is to be praised for its
prompt and energetic action in the
premises.

pRorEoTroN AeAINsT F1RE.
The Need for a Limited Paid Service And
Fire Alarm.

Clarksville's fire service is credit
able TO the city, with an excellent
engine, Hook d Ladder company
and four hoes companies; water
plugs at every corner, with sufficient
force TO throw five large streams over
any house in the city. 1t is hardly
possible for Il fire 10 get under sutii-
cient Roadway to do extensive dam.
age if the fire companies can be
promptly on hand. But it is hardly
expected that volunteer company
composed of men who have their
every day cares and responsibilities
as other people, TO be constantly at
their post to discharge this duty to
the public.
This paper has heretofore urged
the necessity of a limited paid fire
service; at least enough men whose
whole time shall be employed ready
to respond to a fire alarm ona moment
warning, and every fire demonstrates
its necessity. Moreover some means
of giving the alarm must be properly
provided. The old cracked city bell
cannot be heard outside of theshadow
of the market house. Some reliable
alarm should be established to bring
the citizens out.
The board should consider these
questions Immediately. GAINESVILLE
is now quite able to afford the city
with better fire protection. Our PEG
pie know what has b en- suffered
therefore from the lack OF an efficient
service, and they know what has
been saved in later years, since we
have had the present water works
service and it is evident that it will
pay to perfect this service by employ
ing trusly m,n to attend specially to
this want, being always in readiness
with engine, hose and everything in
good condition.
With much dealings we now have,
the splendid water servica, and
limited paid fire service, GAINESVILLE
could truly boast Of being one of the
most substantial LITTLE cities in the
land and such thing would be
worth its cost rs an advertisement to
the city. Let us have it.

A PATENT FENCE FAKE.

Citizens Have Notes Out and Don't

Several weeks ago eight men struck
GAINESVILLE selling district rights for
patent fence. They did not put it
in this light, however. They would
allot a man territory in which to sell
the fence and take his note for 1925
as collateral security for the money
he was supposed to handle for the
company. There was contract also
that these notes were not to be
traded, but We're to be held by the
company and cancelled at the expira
ton Of twelve months, or when the
persons taking territory had com
pleted their canvass. The style OF
the firm was b. l.. Fletcher q CO..

DESTRUCTIVE FIRE.
Dry Goods and Groceries go
Up in Smoke.
McGehee Bros. Visited by the Fire FieEd
and Their Fine Stock OF Goods
Destroyed.

About 1880 o'clock this morning
Gary Lynes was walking up Frank
lin street going TO the market house,
and when passing the grocery store
Of McGehee Bros. he di- covered
smoke issuing from the cellar. His
first thought was that it was log, and
he passed on and went to the market
house. After arriving there he con-
cluded to go to the rear Of the build
ing on Strawberry street to make
sure the house was not on fire. Ar
irving there he found a great column
of smoke coming from the building.
He quickly gave the alarm summon
ing the fire department.. By the
time the company could get stream
on the building the fire had spread
from the grocery store to the dry
goods house, and quicker than il
takes 10 tell ii the interior of the
building was wrapped in flames.
The fire department fought man
fully, but the fam s had too great a
start and too good material to feed
upon. They writhed and Kissed
with such vengeance that at one
time it looked almost impossible to
prevent the entire Elder block from
going up in smoke. BY well direct
ed efforts, however, the fire was kept
within the walls Of the double build
ing, and at 4 O'Clock was nearly all
put out.
McGehee Bros. did a large business,
having, besides large stock of dry
goo Is, clothing, hats, boots and shoes,
Il large stock of groceries. For the last
week they have been receiving their
fall stock of dry goods, therefore
much Of the goods burned were new
The value of the sto k of dry goods
is placed ut from $50, 900 to $40, 900,
while tie stock of groceries is value d
at S., 600, making a total Of from
$4,000 to $4,000. The entire bust
ness was insured for $40, 900, OF
which amount $2l 600 is placed with
companies represented by Jno. W.
FaXon q Co; $1,000 with Kennedy
& Munford, and 1000 with James r..
Wool.
The building in which the dry
goods store was located is the proper
ty of Elder Bros. The grocery build
ing be ongcd individually TO Martin
Elder. The insurance on both build
ings only amounts to $4,000. This
will not cover the loss by several
thousand dollars.
The building occupied by |. Rosen-
field & Son, corner First and Franklin
streets, is damaged to some extent.
The Stock OF goods in this house is
greatly damaged by water and NOV
ing, though at present it is imposoi-
BILE to approximate The damage. The
loss to |. Rosenfeld q Son, however,
is completely covered by INSURANCE :.
fhe Y. M. G. A. building, property
Of Elder Bros, is damaged TO Ger

door of the grocery building. They
were awakened by smoke almost suf-

that the house was on fire they rushed
for the stairs, but could not go down
them for the heat and smoke. BY
this time crowd had gathered ON
Strawberry street and boxes were
piled upon each other for the men to
jump upon from the windows Ern-
est Landermade the jump without
accident, but Bates Wall and II. C..

McGthee Bros. have been very
unfortunate this year from fire. II

DR.. L. NJ. Lessey, who has been in the
county pesthouse for some time past,
is out in time to eat Thanksgiving dinner
with his friends He was sent to the hos
pital several weeks since on account of an
attack pronounced to be smallpox by the
health officer, but about which various
physicians had conflicting opinions as to
whether it was a case of smallpox or
chicken-pox. Whichever it was the doc
tor remained in the hospital up till yester-
day. The disease left him some time ago,
but in compliance with the law governing
infectious diseases he was required to re-
main in the hospital for two weeks after
the disappearance of the eruptions. Health
Officer Sparkling is still of the opinion that
it was mild case OF smallpox, and cites as
proof the pitting which resulted from the
disease. Last night DR.. Sparling took a
new suit OF clothes out to the quarantined
man, and he was allowed to leave his un-
pleasant quarters.
