FIRE ALARMS oALoRE
Three Alarms LAST Night Called o,st
tine Depmf9memk.

tine Department
Last night was q record breaker
for fire alarms il. Ardmore. three
being turned in between 10 and 8
o'clock.
The first was caused by small
fire upstairs over Mrs. James mil
linery establishment. The cause
OF this fire is not known, but Mrs.
James stated this morning that
whils packing her trunk last night
for her trip to Columbus, o.,
where her brother has just recently
died, she tipped on rug and
dropped a lighted lamp. The fire
was smothered with rug. but she
thinks possibly some of the aburn-
ing oil may have been thrown un-
der the edge of rug by the bed
side and smouldered there for some
time before breaking into a blaze
as the fire was not discovered for
an hour and half after she went
to her room at Mrs. Jordan's.
Very little property was actually
burned, but she thinks her house
hold goods will be almost a total
loss from the acid and water
thrown on them from the chemical
engine. She praises the work of
the fremen very highly. She car
ried $3.50 insurance.
E. B. Luke suffered some dam
age from water leaking through on
his instruments from the upper
floor, but he is unable to state
whether it will result in a loss.
The second alarm was turned in
little after 2 a. m and the fire
this time proved to be in the barn
of J. L. Fowler in South Ardmore
The fire here had gained two much
headway TO be extinguished and
the barn and contents were en-
tirely consumed. Judge Fowler
this morning estimates his loss at
$3.50, with insurance for $3.50. No
cause is known for the fire and the
Judge is inclined to attribute it to
incendiarisnm to conceal larceny of
harness or some other contents of
the barn.
Judge Fowler says that he has
learned one thing from the fire and
that is that cows are very different
from horses about fires. A horse,
when taken from a burning barn,
will run back into it unless pre-
vented, but when he turned his
fine COW out last night she ran
from it as fast as she could, jump
ing fence in her efforts to get
away.
The third alarm came from the
Jail while Judge Fowler's barn
was burning, but the fire there
proved to be of no consequence.
Some rags and papers in a corner
of the Jail house were found to be
burning, but we're extinguished by
the trusty with bucket of water.
There was no damage done to the
building.
