AMATEUR FIREMEN
Accomplish Great Work in the New
Miles Building.

Fire was discovered in the Tool
Sharpeners' office on the first floor In
the Miles new Granite block at 3:45
this morning, and was put out by the
occupants of the building without any
serious damage being done.
1t was discovered first by Francis
A. Duffy, who had not been feeling
well during the night, and while ~
ING awake at about 3:45, heard a
cracking below him. At about this
time milkman Martin came around
and he and Mr.. Duffy met in the hall
way, where the smoke was beginning
to be dense, They aroused the vari-
Gus families in the block and soon an
amateur fire company set to work and
put out the fire, under the direction
of Mr.. Duffy.
The buildings fire hose was attach
ed to the water pipes and armed with
this the men extinguished the blaze,
which was found to be in the office of
the Tool Sharpeners. Through the
GOODNESS of II. A. Duffy only com
paratively small amount of water was
thrown and consequently no damage
was done to the stores below, except
in the Red Cross pharmacy, where the
ceiling was burned for about Is feet,
strip two feet wide, and the water
soaked a large quantity of stock.
1t was evident that the fire started
at or near the desk of Secretary Milo
BaSsett, for most Of the blaze was at
that point and the desk was burned
to mass of charcoal while that SEEM

Nothing of any great Importance
was in the desk at the time except
some registration cards, which were
burned.
