Fire.

About / o'clock on Thursday night
an alarm of fire brought ont the fire de-
partment who found that the big ware
house Of DR.. j, |. Triplett, near the
passenger station at this place, was
burning fiescely in the Office part and
along the rafters and upper part Of the
other portion Of the building. The en-
CINE was placed in position at the large
cistern at the railway station, anu by
good work the fire was extinguished in
short time. Had the big wooden struc-
ture not been covered with metal roof
it would doubtless haye been destroyed,
and the fire company would have had
to work hard to save the adjoining
property.
The damage to the building and to
the stork OF Tnplett & Irwin, wholesale
tobacconist, who occupy part Of build
ing, was Si99, the loss OF the last named
firm being slight. The loss is fully
covered by insurance.
The fire was unquestiOnably the work
of an incendiary, and the town and in
surance companies should spare nothing
In the effort to catch these scOundrels,
with whom this town is certainly afflict-
ed.
