reach the scene but as the place Is
far from any fire plug they were help
less until the CumberlandS arrived,
when the hose Of both companies was
joined and a stream secured.
1t is supposed that the fire was caused

heat ignited two adjoining houses,
which were saved by the heroic efforts
of few men.

If all other places were like Sedalia
the Nebraska suffers would be in a

also, that cities like sedalia can cas-
