FIRE ON BROMLEY AVENUE.

John Thomas, Of Bromley avenue,
narrowly escaped serious injury to
himself and the burning down of the
house he resides in, yesterday after
noon by a very peculiar accident. As
it was, the people of the neighborhood
and Mr.. Thomas family were consid-
erably frightened.
Shortly before > o'clock Mr.. Thomas
went into the sitting room and lying
down on the lounge, struck match to
light his pipe. In throwing the match
toward a spittoon, sitting near by on
the floor, it clung to his fingers and
then dropped onto the lounge. The
flame of the match ignited a heavy
fringe on the lounge and almost in
stantly the whole top was ablaZe, the
excelsior stufiing being highly inlam-
mable
Mr.. Thomas jumped away and thus
prevented his clothes from becoming
ignited He did not lose his presence
of mind and, opening a door which led
to the outside, he dragged the blazing
lounge into the yard, where il was par
TALLY consumed before the flames could
be eXtingulshed.

and an alarm was turned i'm from Box

land street to which the Franklins and

were not, however needed This is the
