appears that box of ashes and live Goals
Vas set out on the roof of McKenzie's
one story hardware house from the second
story of the adjoining Delgado building,
and, after smouldering all night, the fire
broke through into McKenzie's store at
the hour named. It was first discovered
by the cook at the Chinese restaurant,
who gave the alarm, and the incipient
blaze was soon e1tinguished with loss
of about $25 to Mr.. Mckenzie. Had the
fire eaten through the roof few hours
