THE KITCHEN
WAS ON FIRE.
Blaze was Discovered Just in
Time TO Avert Much Loss
of Property.
FLAMES BEATEN OUT.

What might have been a serious fire
was caught just in time last night at
the home of Jonn A. Blow, IT'S State
street, at 5 o'clock. Mrs. Blow was
working in the dining room. As she
glanced out in the Kitchen she noticed
the room on fire. She called for help,
at the same time grabbing q rug, she
tried to beat out the blaze.
Eugene Flaherty, who lives next
door, hearing the call for help, ran
into the house. They finally managed
to beat out the fire, but not until the
Kitchen was damaged and Mrs. Blows
hands were badly burned. Mr.. Flah-
erty was also slightly burned about
the hands and arms. A doctor attend
ed them and they are now getting
along nicely. How the fire started is
not known, but it is thought that
when Mrs. Blow struck a match on
the kitchen shelf, that the cloth Gov
ering caught fire.

this morning to make her Christmas
