match and ran. The paper blazed up at
once, but fortunately the fire was seen by
Mrs. James Neil, and parties ran and put
il out
The boys then went to the grocery of Mr.
Mehlman, on Virginia street, west of
Broadway. There were six barrels of vim

frame building Doubtless thinking. in the
darkness,S the barrels were filled with oil,
the boys placed large quantity of paper
between the barrels and the building and
set fire to the stuff Had the barrels been
filed with oil, the chances were the build
ing and contents would have been burned,
but as it was the fire made but little pro
gress before being discovered and put out
as the locality is a very public one.
