Harrison Laundry Burned.

About 2:30 yesterday morning he
fire whistle reused our people to wit
ness the burning of the Harrison
Steam Laundry which has recently
occupied two-story frame building,
known as the Jackson house, just
west of Spring park. The fire seems
to have originated at the roof, about
an old flue which was evidently de-
fective, and at the time the alarm
was given it was apparent that the
building could not be saved; most of
the laundry machinery which was in
the lower story was saved, but con-
siderable household goods in the up
per rooms were lost. Had it not
been for the heroic efforts of those
who are always ready and fearless
on such occasions the residence of
las. King, on the south, and the
Nicholson house, ON the north, as
well as perhaps Others in the vicinity
would have shared the fate of the
Laundry, but as it wds they escaped
with scorching. The laundry be-
longs to Wooten & Co., and the
families of Messrs. o. M. Worthing-
ton and Wooten occupied the upper
story; their loss is probably two
hundred dollars, with no insurance.
The building was owned by Dr. A.
]. Vance and was worth about $500;
no insurance.
