AT Mr.. Dupens residence on 9th
street they have, or did have but have
not now, box on the back porch
where they put the ashes A
few evenings since just before retiring
the stove was cleaned out and the
ashes deposited in the aforesaid box.
1t seems some live Goals got emptied
unncticed, and when the meat boy
came to deliver the breakfast steak he
smelled something worse than a rat
| fire. On investigation it was found
! that the Goals had set fire to the box
and eaten through TO the floor OF the
stoop and was just getting nicely
/ started under the building. Had the
wind had access to it the building
would surely have been lost and pos
| s!bly its inmates. Rut ais well that
1 ends well.
