Fires.

Friday night about IL O'Clock fire
was discovered in O house belonging
to a man named Sawyer, on the
shell road leading to Deep Creek,
near Lindsay's farm. An alarm was
given and his neighbors turned out,
but could do no good, the fire hav-
ing gained such a Roadway. The
house and outhouses were all de-
stroyed. There was an insurance of
5000 on the property. The origin
of the fire is unknown.
Yesterday morning about 1856
o'clock Officer Meginley discovered
the single mill of Mr.. TayIor's, on
Race avenue, between Eningham
and Chestnut streets, to be on fire.
An alarm was sounded aud the
steamer Virginia was soon on hand
and succeeded in combining the fire
to the shed where it started.
Neither the mill nor any of the other
property except the shed, Which is
used to store shingles under, was
burned. MIR. Taylor carried an
insurance of $4,000 on the entire
entire property. The fire was the
work of an incendiary, but Mr..
Taylor was never known to have an
enemy and cannot conceive what
object they had In trying to break
him up.

A fire alarm system is badly need
ed in this city. and unless one is
procured there may be a serious
confiagration that will cost more
than double what the system would.
A better evidence of tho need of one
was never shown than yesterday
morning. Officer Meginley while
patrolllng his beat discovered the
fire at Taylor's mill, which is about
fifteen blocks from the City Hall.
He gave the alarm and then had to
run the whole distance to the sta.
tlon.house to ring the bell and mott
~ the firemen. This, of course,
took time, and during that time the
fire gained such Roadway that the
building was nearly destroyed when
the engine arrived.
