left of the carpet house, and separated
from it by stairway, was the agency of
the Davis sewing machine and Dayton BIZ

this establishment were broken and the

smoke.
The damage to the building will proba-

loss on his stock of something like $500.

An alarm of fire was runR in from box
20 at 9:O5 o'clock yesterday morning,
which proved to be a blaze in the store
room, No. 4O5 South Broadway, in the
Hallett & Pirtle block, occupied by the
carpet store of Charles A. Judd and the
wall paper establishment of the Boston
Fresco company. At the hour named H.
T. Judd, brother of the proprietor of the
place, discovered that some cur aims in the
rear of the store were on fire. An attempt
was made to extinguish the flames in their
incipiency, but this was futile. A lamp had
been burning in the after part of the
store room, and from the explosion of
this it is supposed the flames origin
ated. The theory of spontaneous COM
bustion was advanced, but in no other
way than the explosion of the lamp and
consequent scattering of burning oil over
the stock of goods can the sudden and
rapid spread of the flames be attributed.
The department responded promptly to
the alarm and succeeded in combining the
flames to the store in which they originat-
ed, although considerable damage was
done to adjoining warerooms. 1t seemed
but few moments from the first discov-
cry of the fire until the whole interior OF
the carpet and wall paper house was a
seething mass Of flames. The building is
a thres-story structure, and occupants OF
the second and third floors had lively
time in endeavoring to save their effects
from what seemed certain destruction.

The Fair Oaks Colony

Edwin K. Alsip & Co. of Sacramento,
western managers for the Farm, Field and
Fireside, of Chicago, who have been in
this city the past two weeks, report that
they have had wonderful success in send
ing homeseekers to Fair Oaks.
The location of this tract being on the
sheltered bluffs of the American river, in
Sacramento county, makes it a most de-
sirable spot. The oranges in that section
ripen from four to six weeks earlier than in
other parts of California, giving to the Fair
Oaks people the advantage of the earliest
ane highest prices. The climate is equable,
and the scenery from the bluffs of the
mountains and the great Sacramento valley
is not to be excelled on the coast.

A False Alarm,

About 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon the
fire bell in the tower of the city hall
sounded disconnected series of taps, to
which the department did not respond.
Upon investigation it was found that one
of the circuit wires had been broken by
house movers on Maple avenue, which
damage they had attempted to repair by
joining the broken ends. When a wire is
from any cause broken the bell will sound
only one tap, as the circuit is interrupted.
If an attempt is made to join the seveIed
wires every time they touch the bell
sounds. This was the case yesterday, and
explains the jangling of the bell.
