YESTERDAY MoRNINe.s FIKE.

Just after seven o'clock yesterday
morning, ons of Bracket drivers, pass
ing along North street, noticed smoke
pouring from the house OF MIR. Iulus O..
Mosher, numte tered u on that street. The
driver gave the alarm and it was only a
few moments before the sleeping family
had been aroused and had made their es-
cape from the turning house. The fire
evidently caught from the chimney in
rear room In the second story 1t was In
a closet that the fire seems to have origi-
mated aud from there spread to the upper
PARTS of the house and the roof. The lire
had so great a start that the department
found It Impossible to subdue it with a
chemical stream, and 1t was necessary to
pnt on a stream from an engine, the
water pressure at that point not admit
ting even OF hydrant stream. Some OF
the family slept very near the fire, and II
the flames had not been discovered when
thsy were, there might have been serious
consequences.
The roof OF the house was burned of
and it viii take $500 and perhaps more to
repair the damage. The house is owned
by AIpheus Griffin and the loss is covered
by insurance. MIR. Mosher's furniture
was damaged mostly by water. but he
will have loss OF about $500 The less is
covered by an insurance OF $1,000 equally
divided between the agencies Of Low and
Pinkham and Merrill Bros.
