Puts Out a Fire on Church Street.


 A man rushed into the headquarters of the fire department about o'clock yesterday afternoon and said that Frank D. Trowbridge's residence at 230 Church street, was oil fire. Chief Ken nedy, who was present at the time. turned in still alarm to No. 2's engine house. The chemical engine responded. An alarm was then sent out from box 214. There was, however, no work for the engines that responded as the chemical had effectually checked the progress of the flames and kept them confined to the bath room, where the fire originated. The cause of the blaze is unknown, but 1t is thought that some light garments which had been left in the bathroom came in con- tact with gas stove which was kept lighted all the time for the purpose Of heating the room.
