A Resume of Yesterdays Events In the
Ohio Town.
About three o'clock yesterday morn
ing as Officer Snannafelt, in patrolling
his beat, was passing along Belmont
street, below Tnirty-second, his atten-
ton was attracted by smoke evident
ly issuing from some place in the
neighborhood. The officer Immediately
aroused DR.. Boone from his slumber,
and on investigation it was discovered
that fire had started in the dining
apartment Of DR.. Boone's residence.
The blaze was quickly eXtinguiShed by
the chemical company before any loss
worthy of mention had been sustained.
A large hole was burned in the floor
near the fireplace. The blaze was
caused by the heat from the fire in
the CRATE. Officer Shannafelt's pres
ence in the vicinity at that time was
the cause of preventing quite a de-
structive blaze, as the flames when
discovered were beginning to gain con-
siderable Roadway.
