Prompt Action Prevents Disaster.
What might have been disastrous fire
was eXtinVuished by firemen last evening
A guard in the employ of the elevated road
at the station on the yoof of the Trans
portation building annex saw fire climb
ing up draped post in the exhibit of the
transatlantic French mail line steamers in
the gallery and turned in an alarm, ut the
same time trying 10 extin9uish the blaze
When the fremen arrived the blaze had
reached the overhanging streamers, and
was rapidly approaching the adjoining
sections, which are separated only by
wooden partitions. The fire was ex-
tinguished, however, in a few minutes,
but il necessitated the throwing of water,
which did considerable damage. The ex.
hibition contained many handsome paint
ings OF steamships and some books. The
display was opened but few days ago,
and the days fire, 1T Is thought, has ruined
two of the big pictures. The guard was
badly burned about the neck and was
taken to the hospital.
