MATTRESSES STRIKE FIRE.
A Slight Blaze at the A. j. Miller Fur
niture Store.


A fire alarm from box No. IS, at Brough-
| ton and Whitaker streets, brought out a
| crowd of several thousand people last night
about Z o'clock. The fire department. res
sponded promptly and was reedy for heavy
work, which. however, was not needed.
The fire wss on the third floor Of the A. j.
Miller Furniture Company's building,
No. III Bronghton street, near the cor
ner of Barnard. 1t was discovered
by MIR. Robert Miller. While upon the
second floor of the building he smelled
smoke and investigating found the third
floor full of smoke coming from a lot Of
mattresses which had just been received
and had been stored fe ~ hours before. He
at once gave the alarm and the employees of
the house ct once set TO work with FIRE ex.
tinguishers and buckets Of water to fight
the fire.
BY the time the iremen arrived they had
nearly extinguished the fire. and stream
from the chemical completed the work in
very short order. The damage was very
small.
II is supposed that spark from pipe or
cigarette dropped among the mattresses
while they were being slowed aud after
ward kindled into the blaze. Had it been
any other night than Saturday the place
would ave been closed and a disastrous fire
might have resulted.

TAXES oOMING IN SLOW.

A Little More Promptness Would Be
Convenience All Around.
Although the state and county tax digest
has been opened for some time taxpayers
are slow in settling.
There are over 5000 to be collected by
December, aud the habit of psop!e waiting
until the last days to pay their taxes throws
a great deal Of hard work upon Tax Col
hector McGowan and his assls ants in short
space of time II payments were made
more promptly the work Of the office would
be more equalized and considerable
amount Of inconvenience all around would
be obviated.
Last December Tax Collector Mctfowan
was compelled 70 employ All officer during
the few days preceding the closing OF the
books, TO keep the people in line and avoid
a crush. The same scenes will probably
be repeated this year unless the taxpayers
show a little more promptness than they
lave for the past week
