young man from Lost Creek became a

fore retiring to his room was considerably
the worst from wear and tear. When a
porter attempted to arouse him this morning
he was unable to do so. At the same time
the porter detected an odor of gas in the
room. He reported to the hotel office A
rumor got afoat that the guest had blown
out the gas in his room upon retiring and as
phyxiation followed. This was not so, how
ever. The fact was that the young man was
sound sleeper. Upon retiring he did not
shut off the gas entirely, but the escape was
so slight that it had no effect upon him.

A blaze that threatened to develop into a
serious fire occurred at the residence of Fred.
w. Hooks, on West Lloyd street, at about
$50 O'Clock last night. Mrs. Hooks stepped
upon a match which had fallen to the parlor
floor and escaped notice. In an instant the
trimmings of a couch were mass of flames
and the fire spread to the hammock. A large
crowd soon gathered at the house and mem
bers of the Phoenix Fire Company hurried
to the scene with their carriage, but no fire
alarm was sounded aud the other fire com
panies we're not out.
Mrs. Hooks snatched the burning hammock
from its fastenings and threw it into the
street and several men hustled the burning
couch out of the house. The removals put
an end to danger in the house and bucket
brigade attended to the burning articles that
were carried to the street. The damage was
about twenty-five dollars.
