have friend which can neither be
bluffed nor subsidized by any individ-

The first alarm was sounded about 12
o'clock from box 43, corner of Butler
and Main streets, and the second alarm
from box 81, corner Of Main and Rail,
road streets. The first fire was found
to be in the frame building occupied
by II. Sullivan, as cobbler shop, and
which is located on the westerly side
of Main street, opposite the Sinclair
House. The fire was found to be in the
basement. 1t was extinguished with
few buckets of water 1t is supposed
to have originated from fire cracker
or match carelessly dropped by some
boys. Attending the excitement caused
by the blaze the awning in front Of
Campbell's dry goods store ignited from
similar cause and was totally destroy
ed. The second alarm was due to the
dancing platform being discovered on
fire. during the progress of the picnic
in Oregon grove. The blaze, although
slight, consumed three of the planks OF
the floor.
