Between 10 and II o'clock last
Thursday evening Mrs. G. X. Currier,
who has rooms at The Randall,
noticed sparks of fire coming out of
the rear window of Hall & Cheney's
drug store and gave an alarm. Gen.
II. M. Gordon rang the fire alarm
bell until he became tired out aud
was spelled by Percy Stone. Two
travelling men stopping at The Ran
dall-F. M. Nash and Joe Bowles-
were among the first appearing on
the scene, the former with a chemi-
cal hand fire grenade, which he slung
into the rear window, where the real
fire was. The hose cart soon put in
an appearance, Mr.. Bowles, who is
an ex-freman, assisting at the nozzle.
No large amount of water was
thrown, consequently the building
was not flooded.
The origin of the fire is somewhat
of mystery, but it is plain that the
blaze started at or near the switch
board of the Citizens Telephone line,
this store being the central station.
There are many theories expressed,
some on9 of which may be right, the
most plausible one is that telephone
and electric light wires come in con-
tact. The store was closed at a CON-
paratively early hour, and probably
owing to every air inlet and exit be-
ing tightly closed can be attributed
the safety Of the block, coupled with
it's early discovery and the efficient
work done by the improvised fire
department and those assisting. 1t
was a smouldering fire, which prob
ably accounts for the smoke pene-
trating every one of the four stores
on the ground floor as we'll as to the
rooms above in the short space OF
time from the closing up time until
the blaze was extinguished.
The damage done is extensive and
will be hard to compute in dollars
and cents just at present. The Citi.
zen's Telephones loss is complete as
regards it's station fixtures. The
