AN UNPLEASANT INeIDENT.-An I'M
pleasant incident took place last
Tuesday night at the home of Mr..
Ozene Naquin which might have
turned out to be very serious but for
the timely suceer Of a friend who was
passing by. In some unexplained
way a lamp in q sleeping apartment
caught fire and set the room afire. The
inmates were asleep and were not
aroused until the friend who saw the
the fire had forced his way in and
started to put II the fire. The fire
had already burned a great portion of
the wall paper and curtains and the
room was fillsd with smoke. Luckily
tor the sleeping inmates the room was
not closed tight. otherwise aley-- might
have been asphyxiated.
The fire was soon pnt out and Mr..
Naquin and family were let off with a
very bad fright and considerable dam
age to one room.
