SUNDAY EVENINGS FIRE.
Small Blaze in Clarence Grams Home, Child
Street A Fortunate Discovery.

An alarm from box 81, at 740, Sun
day evening, called out the department.
The blaze was located at No. 8. Child
street. The house is owned by Charles
Davis and occupied By Clarence Cram.
Mr.. and Mrs. Cram and child had
started out to spend the evening with
when Mrs. Cram thought of the money
they had left in the house. and told her
husband he had better go back after it,
He did so. and went up stairs to the
room where the money was lighted
lamp had been left burning in the
room. and when Mr.. Cram arrived
there he found that it had started a
lively blaze. He rushed out to box 81
on Gage street, and pulled the alarm.
Capital Hose Co. responded in re-
markedly quick time, with the Cush-
noes and the Atlantics not far behind.
Two lines of hose We're laid, but no
water was used. The chemicals We're
sufficient to control the fire. The bed
ding and fixtures of the room were
burning, but these were thrown out as
soon as possible The damage was
caused chiefly by the smoke which
filled the entire house. The room
where the fire started will be damaged
somewhat, but the remainder of the
house. with the exception of the smoke,
will not be injured. Had it not been
for the forgotten money, however, it is
probable that the building would have
been destroyed. as there was no one in
it at the time the fire started.
Mr.. Cram had 1913 insurance on his
furniture in the Heath agency, and
the building was covered by a policy
for 5000 in the Macomber agency
The Atlantic Hose team passed the
Journal office in exactly , minutes and
50 seconds from the first stroke of the
alarm.

was made Colby lost the ball on q fun
Bile; Maine then worked the ball down
the Held, using the tackle play by send
ing the same man repeatedly at the
same hole in the line until Davis was
finally sent across the line for touch
down. The goal was at a difficult
angle, but the ball went sailing over
the posts.
In the second half A. r. Davis took
the ball on the kickoff to the 25-yard
line and carried it back to the 40-yard
line, where he was downed by Hag-
gerty. The old tackle play was used
until Maine had the ball on the Colby
30 yard line, where Maine was forced to
punt. Rice got the ball on the punt,
but made no gain. Colby here seemed
to get in her work and stood the best
show of scoring that she had during the
whole game. Towne was sent through
the left tackle for three yards and
Haggerty added three around the right
end. Rice came up with five through
the right tackle and made another gain
of two yards through the same hole
This work was kept up until the ball
was on the Maine 35-yard line where
Rice was forced to punt to the 25-yard
line. Maine began to work the ball
down the field and when the ball was
on the Colby 40-yard line Davis was
sent around the left end. The blockers
had cleared away the Colby ends and
only Halves stood between Davis and
the line. On the 25-yard line Halves
dropped under Davis and lifted him
bodily. The old tackle play was re-
Sumed and on the Colby yard line A.
r. Davis was sent over the line for a
touchdown.
The remainder of the game was SIM
ply a repetition of the first part of the
half. Maine used the tackle play,
varying it by sending the backs and
ends around the ends until two more
touchdowns had been scored.
