FIRE AROUSED
SEVERAL GUESTS
EARLY THIS MORNING TO
SUPPRESS A BLAZE.

Fire was discovered at Sis this
morning in the third story of the old
McCray Hotel on Madison street.
The IRE started in a room which was
used for storing carpets, curtains,
etc, and was making rapid headway
when the department arrived. The
chemical extinguishers could not be
used to advantage, and the water had
to be turned in. Little damage was.
done to the building.
How the fire started is a mystery
as the room was not. used by any one,
and nobody had been init this morn
ing. Several Of the occupants of the
house were vet abed when the fire
was discovered.
