Saturday morning last the frame house on the
farm of Mrs. Samuel Chew, of Philadelphia.
situated about one and ahalf miles northeast
of Towson, took fire from an overheated
kitchen stove and was entirely consumed.
The Towson chemical engine responded to the
alarm, but could do nothing toward saving the
building. Mr.. Elisha w Parks, tenant on the
farm lost most of his household effects. He
has insurance to the amount of $500. The
house, which contained seven rooms, was full
ly insured. Mrs. Parks, with her eldest child
was in Baltimore when the fire occurred, and
Mr. Parks was also away from home. The
colored servant, as soon as the fire was dis
covered, took the two younger children to the
home of their grandfather, Mr.. Samuel E..
Parks, who lives but short distance off, and
gave the alarm.
On Saturday night of last week the fine resi-
dence of Mr.. w. Kennedy Cromwell on Bel
Iona avenue, near Lake Roland made mar
row escape from destruction by fire. An over
heated chimney ignited the woodwork, but it
was discovered before it had gained any head
