night, about 10 o'clock the light
ming run on the telegraph wires
into the Gazette office and set it
on fire. AS nearly every
body was off the street, the fire
might have done great damage,
had not Mr.. Davenport, who was
passing on the opposite side of the
street, noticed the fire burning and
ran up and eXtinguished it. The
wires were put in there for occa-
sional use at conventions ETC., and
had not been used since the con-
ventions last summer. 1t is dan
gerous to have electric wires about,
either for lighting or telegraphing.

Tuesday morning by the fire alarm.
