Mrs. Blaisdeu Escaped tho Flames by
Falling Down Stairs-Last Gve-
ning's Blaze.

A brisk fire was discoveredAn the nick
of time last night and was hastily OK
tinguished by efficient and well directed
efforts.
1t was about GAS o'clock when flames
and smoke burst through the windows
on the lower floor of the Dunphy block
on Pearl street, which was occupied by
Gammon's laundry. The flames must
have been burning for considerable
length of time for, when the department
answered the alarm the whole of the
southern portion of the block was burn
ing freely.
The fremen had an excellent chance
to work, the block being bounded on
three sides by streets. Streams were
poured into structure from front and
rear, and in comparatively short time
the flames were under control.
During the early part of the fire, the
spectators were thrilled by the sight of
awoman at one of the third floor win
dows. She was Mrs. Samuel Blaisde1,

Badly Burned.


Yesterday forenoon Charles Soule and
James Griffin, employed at Sawyer's
confectionery store, had been making a
batch of candy and had put it over the
fire. When it had been heated the
proper length of time the men started to
remove it. In some way the kettle
slipped and the mixture spattered over
Mr.. Soule's arm scalding it severely. Mr..
Grifin's right arm up to the elbow was
also burned. He tainted three times.
DR.. Baker was called and the men were
taken to their homes. Mr.. Soule on
Cumberland street and Mr.. Griffin to
Oakdale. 1t is probable that Mr.. Soule
will be laid up with his injuries at least
two months. Mr.. Griffin, if no cold sets
in, will be all right in a week or two.
